Mary Keith Medbery Mackaye's Pride and Prejudice, A Play is a drama inspired by Jane Austen's novel Pride and Prejudice. Which t

wo details in the excerpt of Austen’s novel are included in the excerpt of Mackaye’s play?
Pride and Prejudice
by Jane Austen (excerpt)

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.

However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.
"My dear Mr. Bennet," said his lady to him one day, "have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last? "

Mr. Bennet replied that he had not.
"But it is," returned she; "for Mrs. Long has just been here, and she told me all about it. "
Mr. Bennet made no answer.
"Do you not want to know who has taken it?" cried his wife impatiently.
"You want to tell me, and I have no objection to hearing it."
This was invitation enough.

"Why, my dear, you must know, Mrs. Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England; that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four to see the place, and was so much delighted with it, that he agreed with Mr. Morris immediately; that he is to take possession before Michaelmas, and some of his servants are to be in the house by the end of next week."

"What is his name?"
"Bingley."
"Is he married or single?"

"Oh! Single, my dear, to be sure! A single man of large fortune; four or five thousand a year. What a fine thing for our girls!"

"How so? How can it affect them?"

"My dear Mr. Bennet," replied his wife, "how can you be so tiresome! You must know that I am thinking of his marrying one of them."

Which detail uses sensory words to describe Akela? Father Wolf waited till his cubs could run a little, and then on the night of
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The detail that uses sensory words to describe Akela is:

C. out at full length on his rock.

Explanation:

Sensory words are words or phrases that appeal to one of more of our five senses: sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing. Having that in mind, we can use elimination to answer this question:

A. a hilltop covered with stones and boulders - may appeal to sight, but does not refer to Akela. This option is incorrect.

B. who led all the Pack by strength and cunning - does refer to Akela, but does not appeal to any of the five senses. The words "strength" and "cunning" demand a different kind of interpretation from readers. This option is incorrect.

C. out at full length on his rock - this is the correct option. We can imagine Akela lying down on the rock; we can even see the position of his body because of this description. Imagine your dog or cat, for instance, lying down on the floor, with his/her belly's whole extension touching the floor.

D. from badger-coloured veterans - again, does appeal to the senses, but does not refer to Akela. This option is incorrect.

Let them be as flowers, always watered, fed, guarded, admired,but harnessed to a pot of dirt. I'd rather be a tall, ugly weed, c
hjlf

Hello!

In this paragraph, the author/narrator is referencing everyday things that we may see, like flowers, weeds, rocks, and more, to how they feel!  For example, the author tells us that a flower is basically "trapped" in a pot, although it is beautiful and gets much attention and care, then he compares the trapped flower, to the weed, which although is in a "dangerous condition", it is free.

So, what I understand from this paragraph is that sometimes we can feel trapped, like a flower, or free, like a weed.

Have a wonderful day! Hope this helps! :)
