When trying to convey the thoughts and feelings of immigrant laborers in the early 20th century, it would be best to read a narrative type of passage, due to the story.
After reading the poem "The Hangman", by Maurice Ogden, we can answer the questions:
1. The Hangman built the gallows to hang the townspeople in front of the courthouse.
2. The townspeople wondered who the Hangman would kill. He told them he would kill someone who "served [him] the best."
3. The Hangman hanged first a man who was from another land, not from that town.
4. The townspeople asked him if he had not killed the foreigner the day before. In other words, they wondered why he was still there. I believe the Hangman had not left because he intended, all along, to kill the others.
5. The one who spoke out against the Hangman was hanged by him.
6. The third person was a Jew. The townspeople ask him if that was the man who served him well. The fourth executed was a black man.
7. The townspeople stop asking questions and reacting to the killings. I believe they are feeling both afraid and confused, because the Hangman does not answer their questions directly and never leaves.
8. The speaker thinks the Hangman called him to help pull down the gallows.
9. The Hangman really called him with the intention of hanging him. When the speaker accuses the Hangman of having lied, the Hangman asks who has served him more faithfully than the speaker.
- The poem "The Hangman" by Maurice Ogden is a narrative poem from a first-person perspective.
- The poem criticizes people and government's inertia in the face of injustice and cruelty. Many interpret the poem as a criticism to the world's reaction to Nazism.
- The first people hanged by the Hangman are precisely those he knows no one will defend: a stranger, a Jew, a black man.
- People do nothing about it. As long as it does not happen to them, they do not care about the suffering of others.
- Finally, the Hangman begins to hang everyone. Now, his excuse for killing them is precisely the fact that they did not help the others.
- In conclusion, the poem is a fierce critique against violence, injustice, and inertia.

Hello, so the verb is the action and the compound subject is going to be
our second subject in the sentence. To distinguish whether it is
corresponding or not we are going to make sure that it is in the right tense, person, etc.
So lets look at our options
Our
first sentence has the first subject plural but not the second subject,
and an improper use of the verb making this sentence grammatically incorrect.
Our second sentence the verb and compound correspond correctly so no mistakes here.
The third sentence we are distinguishing whether we use begun or began. Began is past tense and begun is past participle.
The last sentence is grammatically incorrect because the action/verb 'stores' does not correspond with our compound subject.
So that leaves us with the answer being B.
I hope I helped! If you have any other questions or would like further explanation please let me know! :)
Answer:
A <u>prefix</u> is an affix which is placed before the stem of a word. Adding it to the beginning of one word changes it into another word. ... The word prefix is itself made up of the stem fix (meaning "attach", in this case), and the prefix pre- (meaning "before"), both of which are derived from Latin roots.
