Answer:

The description of setting in paragraph 7 of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" is important to the theme of America's changing history in that it depicts Sleepy Hollow as a "drowsy" place caught in the past while great "currents" of change go on around it.

Which lines in this excerpt from W.B. Yeats's "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death" suggest that the speaker's choice to become a
Vinil7 [7]
The first part when he says he "shall meet my fate" could allude to a choice of joining. This could allude to an acceptance of fate sort of standard and that he made his decision. Another is the last two lines when he says "Nor law... nor cheering crowds." This quotation shows that the government, the duty to his country, the men around him, and those at home cheering them on did not persuade him to fight. In the second last line this is known when he states "nor law nor duty bade me fight".

Answer:

D. Leaping and jumping

Explanation:

When we're unsure about what a word means, we can use different methods to figure out its meaning. One way is to look at the context - words and phrases that surround it. The paragraph tells about a racing horse that is trying to catch up with other horses. Based on the context, we can conclude that the word <em>cavorting </em>means <em>leaping and jumping</em><em>. </em>Words that especially lead to this conclusion are <em>scattering her legs around limber, sometimes in the air, and sometimes out to one side.</em>

Another way to find out what a word means is to look it up in a dictionary - an alphabetically arranged listing of words that contains different information about them, including their definitions and how they're used. There, we can see that this is what <em>cavorting </em>means.

Read the passage from Anthem, by Ayn Rand. In this passage, the narrator is exploring an old, abandoned underground tunnel.
solong [7]

The correct answer is B.

In this passage from Ayn Rand's "Anthem", the narrator is exploring an abandonen tunnel made from an unknown material.

The narrator describes the walls as "hard and smooth" and "cold as glass". This depiction leads us to believe that the interior of the tunel is made of man-made concrete.

The narrator states that the material feel like stone but it is not, therefore answer A is incorrect. The walls are also said to be soft, making C incorrect as well. And there is no mention of the walls being wet, for what answer D is not correct either.
