English
1 answer:
Roman55 [17]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

not caring, causal, with no interest

Explanation:

The word <em>indifferent </em>means that someone <u>does not feel particularly strong feelings about anything and that their interests do not go one way or the other</u>. It means having no particular interest or care about something.

<u>In this passage, the author says they tried to look indifferent, </u><u>meaning that they tried to look as if they don’t care or think about the pear in question</u>. In the text before, they describe that they were hungry and that they wanted to get the pear very much. However, by stating that they “ straightened up then, and looked indifferent” when someone would pass by, they explain how they wanted to seem as they are not earning for the fruit, to seem <u>casual</u>, <u>relaxed</u>, and <u>uninterested </u>about it.

How is the culture described in the overture.
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Miller calls his introduction to the play "An Overture," a word that usually refers to the orchestral introduction of a musical work but that also means "a proposal." He first provides a note on the historical accuracy of the play, saying that he has taken some liberties by combining characters or changing their ages.

Explanation:

The overture implies that human nature has a tendency to conform as people would rather compromise their principles than to be killed. Also, the overture implies that people fear the unknown; to be specific, members of the Puritan society fear the idea of some members being possessed by the devil or satanic spirit.

lilavasa [31]

The sentence that best supports the idea is C. The Provincial Congress formed by the thirteen colonies during the American Revolution, built a Continental Army under the leadership of General George Washington. This Army together with French Troops defeated the British Army commanded by Cornwallis in 1781 in the Battle of Yorktown.

The Battle boosted American morale and revived French enthusiasm for the war, as well as undermining popular support for the conflict in Great Britain.

This was a long period of wars, battles and negotiations which ended up in the Treaty of Paris in 1873.
