Answer:

This quote adds credibility to the text because it is a personal account of a person who witnessed that moment.

Explanation:

The text above shows how immigrants were treated when they tried to reach the USA and how complicated, delicate and neglected their situations were by immigration taxes. However, the storyteller is reporting a personal moment where violence against immigrants was imposed on his family. As the narrator is reporting a moment that he lived, this quote has great credibility.

Why were supernatural elements in a play more freighting for audiences during Shakespeare time?
schepotkina [342]

During Shakeaspeare time, people actually believed in witches and demons. They were extremely superstitious, and mystical/supernatural beliefs affected their everyday lives. If someone was ill, it was not uncommon to believe that person was cursed, for example. So seeing the supernatural being represented on a stage was especially frightening, which is also why magic and the supernatural are a recurring theme in Shakespeare plays.

Write a letter to a relative in Europe from the point of view of an early French settler in North America. Describe what life is
belka [17]

Answer:

It would be difficult and lonely.

Explanation:

Dearest Francis,

I hope that this letter finds you happy and good of health. Life here in the New World is not easy, but if the elements cooperate, the benefits can be good. Winters here are longer and more bitter than in France, but the spectacular landscapes to in many ways compensate for the frigid conditions. Cities here would not be cities back home, but any speck of civilization can bring joy to the heart after weeks of trapping in the wilderness.

Until our paths cross again,

Marcus

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Incorrect Apostrophe

Explanation:

An apostrophe typically symbolizes ownership, but the way "toys" is used in this sentence, it is meant to be plural. Therefore, it should just be "toys" without the apostrophe. Stay cool.<3
