They had ancient sacrifices.
Answer:
The main message of this passage is that even though we might feel like there is silence, there is always our thoughts that aren't quiet.
Explanation:
When Jack London explains the setting as " the lone and silent land," it shows that there is really nothing that could cause harm to the character. As London goes on in the passage, he begins to describe " the hunting cries..." and how "they sent surges of fear through the toiling dogs." This represents the thoughts of everyday people and the fear of the unknown. London then goes on to say " I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone." "They do get on the nerves horrible." These quotes represent the racing thoughts of the two characters, Bill and Henry, and how, even in the silence of the night, their thoughts are still heard loud and clear in their heads about the possible creatures that lurk in the dark.
We can observe that all the answers contain ellipsis which is an intentional omission of a word, sentence or something longer. The correctly applied version of ellipsis is the first option - Our democratic-republican government is based on the idea of the natural right of every individual member thereof to . . . a vote in making and executing the laws. Omitted word is "voice". Other options are not correct because all of them contain mistakes regarding the usage of the ellipsis.
From this excerpt, we can conclude that the best option to answer is the last one <em>Antigone refuses to allow Creon to believe that Ismene is as brave as she is. This reveals the universal theme that pride goes before a fall.</em>
We can notice Antigona's pride in the last words she said, showing she thinks she deserves what she is having but she won't give it up for her sister. She doesn't wanna Creon to think her sister is braver than her, and puts it in evidence.
It is important to be consistent: unless you have reasons not to, you should stick only to one tense.
If you're telling a story, be consistent about whether you say it in the present tense or the past tense.
