Answer:

Standing on the summit, one does not feel altogether comfortable when he looks down from the high side; but to crawl on your breast to the verge on the lower side and try to stretch your neck out far enough to see the base of the tower, makes your flesh creep, and convinces you for a single moment in spite of all your philosophy, that the building is falling. . . .

Select the abbreviation that tells how the noun clause in quotations is used.

Write a paragraph about the role that nature played in the early American settlements and how this influenced literary themes.
KonstantinChe [14]

Nature in American settlements played, arguably, the biggest role. When they came to settle, they needed to hunt. The animals differed because of what they ate. They needed homes, and the trees were different. They built homes out of nature and they hunted the food so they wouldn't starve. There were medicinal plants, too. While they could not have cured A before, they can now, while B was easy to fix before, they don't have C to treat it, and D and E were poisonous. Their lives were changed because of nature. They may or may not have lived comfortably before, but now, they needed to survive, and nature provided them challenges, but a way to survive.
