Answer:

I was 80 francs richer before coming here.

Explanation:

The comparative degree, as the name suggests, compares two things to show which has the lesser or greater degree of the quality stated. For instance, I can compare my height to someone else's: Mark is shorter than I am.

We are supposed to transform a sentence by using the comparative degree. The sentence is: But before coming here, I had at least 80 francs. Since we do not have the context in which the speaker says that, I will assume this person had at least 80 francs, but now he/she does not. Having that in mind, we can create the following sentence in the comparative degree:

I was 80 francs richer before coming here.

Will give 100 points if correct

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Dave notes the things about him as a child that may have influenced the way she treated him, including his loud voice and his propensity to get caught during mischief. His mother's own behavior changed rapidly; when his father was away all day at work, she would lie on the couch in her bathroom and watch television, only getting up to go to the bathroom. She started to yell at them, losing her nurturing voice. Dave was able to determine what kind of day he would have based on how she was dressed–when she was put together and wearing makeup, that would be a good day.
his mother starved him for ten consecutive days. At long last, she placed a plate of leftovers in front of him and told him he had two minutes to eat—but as soon as he started eating it, she pulled it away from him and threw it out. ----------his mother played another cruel game with him. She put a bucket of ammonia and Clorox in the bathroom with him and shut the door.--------mother made him take a job mowing lawns, which was not successful; instead, he ended up punished because one client felt bad for him and gave him a bag of lunch. His mother made him sit on rocks in the backyard while she took "her sons" to the zoo (pg. 65), and then had him lie in a freezing cold bathtub with his face submerged in the water so he could not breathe.

mother was hitting him and lost her balance and pulled the boy's arm out of socket. ------ On another occasion she had burned his arm on the stove.
The story was that david fell out of his bed.-------- ON the second occasion she had said he was playing with fire in the garage.
while the rest of the family goes camping he goes to ant josies and he ran away to be with his family.

List and explain four of the five dysfunctional family roles

ohaa [14]

Answer:

"Responsible Child" - "Family Hero"

This is the child who is "9 going on 40." This child takes over the parent role at a very young age, becoming very responsible and self-sufficient. They give the family self-worth because they look good on the outside. They are the good students, the sports stars, the prom queens. The parents look to this child to prove that they are good parents and good people.

"Acting out child" - "Scapegoat"

This is the child that the family feels ashamed of - and the most emotionally honest child in the family. He/she acts out the tension and anger the family ignores. This child provides distraction from the real issues in the family. The scapegoat usually has trouble in school because they get attention the only way they know how - which is negatively. They often become pregnant or addicted as teenagers.

"Placater" - "Mascot" - "Caretaker"

This child takes responsibility for the emotional well-being of the family. They become the families 'social director' and/or clown, diverting the family's attention from the pain and anger.

"Adjuster" - "Lost Child"

This child escapes by attempting to be invisible. They daydream, fantasize, read a lot of books or watch a lot of TV. They deal with reality by withdrawing from it. They deny that they have any feelings and "don't bother getting upset."
