English

Talja [164]3 years ago

Answer:

14. True.

15. False.

16. True.

Explanation:

In Chinua Achebe's novel 'Things Fall Apart", the story revolves around the Igbo culture in Africa, specifically on the character of Okonkwo. The story deals with themes of culture, tradition, Christianity, conformity, etc.

In Chapter 3, we see that Okonkwo's father Unoka went to the Oracle to consult why his crops failed even though he made sacrifices. It was then that he was told his crops failed despite his sacrifices because he was lazy and had planted on a wasted land.

Okonkwo's prosperity was a result of his desire to be unlike his lazy father. He did not want to be deemed alike to his father and thus, went to the wealthy Nwakibie to ask for 400 yam seeds.

In Igbo culture, yam was considered to be the king of the crops. It was assumed that a man who can feed yam to his family the whole year is a man who has succeeded and is hardworking.

Which is the best way to emphasize a point when giving a speech?
laiz [17]
When giving a speech, you can resort to different techniques to emphasize an idea or topic. For example, use repetition; you can state your point, make a stop and rephrase the idea, you can slow down your voice to a point you want to emphasize (raise your voice for the point you want to highlight). Another good idea is to use body language, gestures while speaking to create a visual impact, too.

Axel doesn't understand English.

He comes from Germany.

Oh no! I think the milk has boiled over.

Explanation:

The simple present tense is used when an action is happening at the time being or at a regular rate. For example, in the first sentence above, the correct form of the sentence is the present tense because the action is happening currently.

The present continuous tense indicates that the action is occurring presently, at a regular rate and will continue right into the future. The present participle of the main verb which ends with -ing is used. The second sentence is indicative of a present continuous tense because the action is in progress and will continue happening after the statement is made.

Which of the following sentences is written in active voice? A. I went to the mall. B. The computer was fixed by my friend. C. T
lana [24]

Answer:

A. I went to the mall.

Explanation:

The difference between active voice and passive voice is that in active voice the subject acts while in passive voice the subject receives the action.

Active voice: "Johnny ate an apple."

Passive voice: "The apple was eaten by Johnny."

To look for the sentence written in active voice, look for the one with the subject acting.

In A, the main subject is I. The narrator went to the mall.
