Answer:
In this excerpt from A World Without Collisions, Sam describes how he dreams the world to be in the future. I think his main idea has good intentions, he feels sorry for those who get hurt in "learning how to live life". He also seems to think that everybody should take control of their lives and don't be just a victim on everything that happens. This way of thinking has good intentions, but it is not always realistic or even easy to do.
First of all, unexpected things happen in life and some are pretty big and sad, and we do not control everything that happens around us. It is true that we can try and control our emotions in order to feel better, but not what happens outside our bodies. The thing is also, we can chose not to be victims, but it is healthy sometimes to embrace the bad feelings to because only by accepting our sadnesses or pains is that we will be able to move forward. If we deny this bad feeling, our bodies will eventually speak for us and show us that we have been hiding important issues that we should face. I agree, we should "dance life like champions", but doing so is also embracing the bad feelings, connecting with them, and get pass through them. We ARE going to get hurt "in all that bumping" and it is ok.
Answer:
d) Mercedes is the only one at home, and she is too busy with her embroidery in Madam Hailer's room to come near you
Explanation:
a) “You are going to build a large house, Mr. Darrell?” said Victoriano, turning his horse so as to ride beside Clarence; “judging by the amount of lumber being hauled.”
b) “I understand, and I think my father will be willing to sell the land. He is at home now. Let us go up to see him.”
c) They have too much sense not to know that you would not be working in white kid gloves.
d) Mercedes is the only one at home, and she is too busy with her embroidery in Madam Hailer's room to come near you
Since Mercedes is depicted as being at home alone before having a love encounter, it is clear that the author has resorted to narration to communicate this information.
The correct answer is: "its"
Explanation:
The textbook definition defines noun as a person, place or a thing. Everything that does not belong to a person category assumes to in a "thing" category (if not places). The pronoun we use for anything that is not a person is "it." Here in this case, "one of the horses" phrase is used. A horse does not lie in the person's category. Therefore, we will use "it." In the case of possessive pronoun, the possessive form of "it" is "its." Therefore, the correct answer in this case is "its."
Well, first we learn that Beowulf has a sense of duty to himself and we learned that he has performed great deeds. His deeds are his testament, his demonstration of worthiness.
