Answer:
Summary of the book
Explanation:
'The Brook' by Alfred Lord Tennyson is an image-rich poem that describes the life of a brook that is going to “go on” for eternity. The poem begins with the speaker, the brook, describing its nature. It was at once a simple body of water before it started moving forward in a rush.
Answer:
“Build up . . . institutions which will ensure justice”
“end poverty and ignorance and disease”
Explanation:
The lines given above are from "Tryst with Destiny", a speech delivered by Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of independent India, on August 14, 1947, the night that India gained independence. The Prime Minister gave this speech to the Indian Constituent Assembly in The Parliament.
He insists that better future awaits people, provided they work hard. It is only in this way that Indians will earn money and put a stop to poverty. By working hard, Indian people will also set up institutions which will bring justice.
Answer:
The option that would most likely function as the exposition in a story is:
A. We had been working for months to restore the house to its original glory.
Explanation:
<u>The exposition of a story is the moment when the author sets the stage for what is going to happen. In other words, it functions as the introduction of the story, where we get to know the setting, the characters, and begin to understand the context in which the plot will unfold.</u>
Therefore, the exposition should present information that will be developed, that is, introductory information. When we analyze the options given in the question, we can see that B, C, and D are more likely to be used in other moments in the story. They demand context. If they were the very first sentence in a story, for instance, we would be taken aback, having no idea what is going on. Why is Shannon trying to go from the raft to the boat? What project is she talking about - and who is she, for that matter? What contest is this and who is talking about it?
<u>Now, option A sounds much more like an introduction. We do not know who the speaker is yet, but now we know that he/she and someone else have been working on renovating a house. It is easy to see that this piece of information will be further developed: we will be told who the speaker is, whose house it is, etc.</u>
I believe your answer is the first option; learning to work with people around the world. Hope this helped!
Thanks!
