Karishma is reading "The Tell-Tale Heart." She reads an excerpt, looks for clues, and makes a prediction about what happens next

. Read the same excerpt and her prediction. His room was as black as pitch with the thick darkness, (for the shutters were close fastened, through fear of robbers,) and so I knew that he could not see the opening of the door, and I kept pushing it on steadily, steadily. Karishma predicted that the narrator would carry out the murder plot undetected. Next, read the subsequent excerpt that Karishma read. I had my head in, and was about to open the lantern, when my thumb slipped upon the tin fastening, and the old man sprang up in bed, crying out—"Who's there?" Which revision is most logical for Karishma to make to her prediction as she continues to read? The narrator would carry out the murder plot undetected. The narrator will be seen, but not heard as the murder is committed. The old man becomes aware of a frightening presence in the room. The old man prepares for his own murder.

The correct answer is C. The old man becomes aware of a frightening presence in the room.

Explanation:

Making predictions about a text involves analyzing the details provided and with these trying to guess the next action or event in a story. Moreover, predictions should be adjusted according to new details. In this context, Karishma will need to include the new information "the old man sprang up in bed, crying out—"Who's there?" in her prediction. Therefore the best new prediction is "The old man becomes aware of a frightening presence in the room" because the noise makes the old man react and realize there is a strange presence in the room.

Many schools have a dietician on staff. True of False
Vladimir79 [104]
The correct answer to this question is FALSE. There are only a few schools that have a dietician on staff. The reason behind this is because the school can't afford to pay the salary of another staff. Another reason is that there are only a few dieticians that are available and some are already employed.

Which of the following elements does not contribute to the dreary mood of this short passage from the novel Bleak House by Charl
Hoochie [10]
Assuming your options are <em>infinitives, repetition, adjectives, and punctuation, </em>the correct answer is infinitives.
The answer is rather simple when you think about it - there are no infinitives in this passage, so obviously they cannot contribute to any mood. There are repetitions (the word fog is constantly being repeated), there are a lot of adjectives, and some punctuation marks - all of which contribute to the dreariness of this excerpt.
