Use the context to decide the meaning of the word condemned .

English
1 answer:
ehidna [41]3 years ago

Answer:

Officially declared to be unfit for use

Explanation:

<em>Condemned</em> is an adjective derived from the verb <em>to condemn</em>. According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, it has several meanings:

  • declared to be reprehensible, wrong, or evil
  • pronounced guilty and sentenced to punishment (usually to death)
  • officially declared to be unfit for use

Since the sentence is about gas cylinders, a type of product, we can conclude that the third meaning is the correct one. Cylinders can't be declared wrong or evil or sentenced to punishment. They can be only declared unusable, which fits the context - gas cylinders that cannot be identified must be removed from service, declared unfit for use, and rendered incapable of holding pressure.

How does the speaker describe the juggler and what does that description reveal about the speaker?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

The speaker describes the juggler as one who did incredible things, as a man who got tired and one who won the world's weight (last line of the last stanza).

The description reveals that the speaker was among those who applauded the juggler.

Explanation:

From the poem, we discover that juggler was seen as one who performed incredible things. Some of the things the poem stated that he did was the table turning on his toes, the broom balancing on his nose and the plate whirls at the tip of the broom.

We also discover that the juggler got tired as some point and the things he carried began to drop. At the end of the juggler's display, the speaker was among those who applauded him: "For him we batter our hands" (Line 29).

Which word in the sentence is an adverb? That library book about aircraft likely includes many interesting pictures of planes. A
svlad2 [7]
The adverb of a sentence is a word that defines a verb. The main verb in this sentence is the word 'includes', so we are looking for the word that defines it, makes it more specific. So let's take a look at our answer choices:

A. includes

We know that includes is the verb of the sentence, so we can nix answer A right away.

B. likely

This word describes the way in which the pictures of planes were included, so this looks like a good candidate.

C. interesting

This word is an adjective defining the pictures, not the verb of the sentence, so we can scratch it off our choices

D. many

This is another adjective defining the amount of pictures there were, so we can also remove choice D from our list.

And we're left with answer choice B.
The word 'likely' is the adverb in the sentence.
Hope that helped! =)
