Answer: a part to whole type of analogy
Answer:
Thoreau was jailed for refusing to pay a poll tax on the grounds that the money might be used to pay for the Mexican–American War, which he opposed.
Explanation:
Answer:
Part A: a place where a specific group of people used to stay
Part B: “proved to have deep roots”
Explanation:
As can be seen in the paragraph shown in the question above, the word "haunt" was used in the sense of "to group," referring to a place where a specific group of people usually stays. This expression was used in the article to show how difficult it is to end terrist organizations when they are trapped, joined, haunted in the Middle East, where they established deep and difficult roots to be destroyed.
In this case, we can say that the detail of the paragraph that supports the word "haunt" is the detail that shows that terrorist organizations "proved to have deep roots" in their homeland.
I have found this question online, and it is about the short story "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," by Mark Twain. The excerpt is long for me to post here, but it begins with the story told by Simon Wheeler, one of the characters.
Answer:
The option that best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt is:
A. with the use of dialect.
Explanation:
When it comes to literature, dialect is related to how the author portrays the characters' speech. Many authors choose to write words with an uncommon spelling just to show that that is the way the character pronounces them. For instance, in books by Zora Neale Hurston, what should be "I" was spelled as "Ah" to emphasize pronunciation.
<u>The same happens in this short story by Mark Twain. The excerpt we are analyzing here uses dialect to reveal more about the character. For example, Wheeler says "feller" instead of "fellow". Twain wants readers to know that Wheeler is a simple man, in contrast with the narrator of the story who is an educated man and who uses a very different (formal) dialect from Wheeler.</u>
