2. The gift store is …………………of Hill Street and Park Avenue.
Dimas [21]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The gift store is on the corner of Hill Street and Park Avenue.

This is because it is grammatically incorrect to say, "between of", and "next to of". You can say "right of", but it is usually "to the right of". This leaves "on the corner" as the correct answer.

In "A Wagner Matinee" why does Clark worry that Georgiana may feel uncomfortable
CaHeK987 [17]

Clark worries Georgiana may feel uncomfortable in the concert hall due to the way she is dressed and her appearance.

<h3>Who are Clark and Georgiana?</h3>

Clark and Georgiana are characters in the short story "A Wagner Matinee." Georgiana is Clark's aunt, a woman who left everything behind to marry to man she loved and go live an extremely difficult life at the Nebraska frontier.

When she comes to visit Clark in Boston, Georgiana is taken by him to the concert hall, for a matinee of Wagnerian music. Clark, however, worries that his aunt may feel uncomfortable due to her appearance. Her dress and even herself look dissonant for everyone else in the hall.

Read the passage and answer the question. [1620] . . . so as there died sometimes two or three of a day, in the foresaid time; t
Elenna [48]
Most of the above passage includes descriptions of the tasks that the caretakers did for the sick, but if you look where Bradford first mentions those caretakers, you can see just how he feels about them. This phrase, "there was but six or seven sound persons, who, to their great commendations be in spoken, spared no pains, night nor day, but with abundance of toil and hazard of their own health" holds the key. If you look closely at this phrase, Bradford describes how many people acted as caretakers (six or seven) and includes a single word, "commendations," that means praise. To suggests they deserve "great commendations" tells the reader that Bradford feels like these caretakers deserve the highest praise for what they do. My answer, then, would be the word "commendations."
