The answers are the following:
"For once, at least, I grasped the mental operations of the Morlocks. Suppressing a strong inclination to laugh, I stepped through the bronze frame and up to the Time Machine;"
" I was surprised to find it had been carefully oiled and cleaned. I have suspected since that the Morlocks had even partially taken it to pieces while trying in their dim way to grasp its purpose "
Could you explain a little more clearer please?
The answer is (A). I'm not a genius, but if there are smart things you can do (B,C,D) and then A is generic, the bad wording and lack of quotation, then that isn't recommended
Here is a paragraph based on your question:
I haven’t met my late grandmother throughout my life. I wish that I could’ve met her because she symbolizes so much for me. At my early childhood, my parents would talk about her and her prodigious journey of becoming who she really is. She was a woman with great heart and great compassion, and a microcosm for all women. She never had much freedom around her life since my late grandfather actually forced her to be with him. But everyday, she will grow stronger and stronger and extend through the line of Mother Earth. A great example of those who have been virtuous to many of her people. I could’ve met her but she has been deceased. However, no one will ever erase the memory of an old picture from their head for it will fly away forever.
This a paragraph about my late grandmother. Hope this helps :)
Answer:
C) One passage provides objective economic data about the river while the other tells the story of two boys adventuring on its water.
Explanation:
The main idea of Mary O'Dell's passage is to present the Mississippi river as an important resource which was used for development of river transport, thus
contributing to the nation's economic growth.
Twain's passage, although also mentioning Mississippi, does so only to give his story a setting, a place for adventures of the two wannabe pirates.
So, the basic contrast between two passages is best described in answer C.
