HALE. Well, my first thought was to get that rope off. I looked . . . (Stops, his face twitches.) . . . but Harry, he went up to

him, and he said, “No, he’s dead all right, and we’d better not touch anything.”

This question is missing the options. I've found them online. They are the following:

How does the use of the word “twitches” in the stage direction most affect this scene?

A. It characterizes Hale as someone who is weak and cannot handle difficult aspects of the job.

B. It emphasizes the fact that death is a difficult subject for Mr. hale and causes him discomfort.

C. It hints to the reader that Hale may have somehow been involved and is acting out of guilt.

D. It reveals to the reader that Hale is extremely upset because he and Mr. Wright were very close.

Answer:

The use of the word “twitches” in the stage direction most affects this scene because:

B. It emphasizes the fact that death is a difficult subject for Mr. hale and causes him discomfort.

Explanation:

In this excerpt from the play Trifles, by Susan Glaspell, Harry and Hale have found Mr. Wright's body. The stage direction, combined with Hale's speech, shows that death is a difficult subject for him. He is simply explaining what he first thought of doing once they found the body. But, just at the mere memory of looking at the body, Mr. Hale's face twitches. That stage direction is given purposefully, to make it clear to readers/the audience that seeing Mr. Wright, dead, bothered Hale.

9. What is a clause?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

A clause is the part of a sentence that necessarily includes a verb to express the action of the sentence and also a subject that performs that action. While the verb is always explicitly states, the subject can be understood and not mentioned in the written sentence.

A clause, however, does not always make sense on its one. An independent clause can indeed stand alone as a sentence, but a dependent clause only forms part of a sentence and does no make sense by itself.
