Answer: To perform magic​

Explanation:

The phrase is: 'Perhaps he was shouting - but the sound did not reach me. But how the deuce had he done this? I felt like a man who has just seen a new conjuring trick.'

In this context, the word conjuring refers to performing some kind of magic trick, because the speaker uses it as a metaphor of something unexplainable at first sight. It doesn´t refer to the action of calling someone, nor bringing something to mind. Although the word 'conjuring might usually be used to refer to the summons of a spirit, in this sentence that wouldn´t make sense.

Which answer best explains how the participle shrieking is used in this sentence?
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

D.) It is used as a verb to describe the main action of the sentence.

Explanation:

Shrieking is a verb because it is an action, it wouldn't be a verb if it was shrieked but in this case it is ending with <em>-ing</em>, therefore the action is taking place at the moment.

Hope this helps and if the explanation is unclear, I apologize.

Answer:

<em>“in groves all around Basra grow the best dates in the world”</em>

Explanation:

Subjective perspective is the personal opinion of the writer is mentioned or used. In other words, the point of view that is based on the author or writer's personal opinion is known as subjective perspective.

From the given excerpt, Marco Polo expressed his opinion about the dates found along the<em> "groves all around Basra",</em> calling them <em>"the best dates in the world." </em>This is a subjective approach because the opinion is the author's personal belief and not everyone's.

Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.
