Answer:

C. He shrugged his shoulders, shook his head, cast up his eyes, but said nothing.

Explanation:

These phrase shows how the Dame's behavior comically affects Rip because it describes the actions he did to pretend that he was listening to his wife. The intensive hours a day he had listened to her were enough to make from his actions a custom, so  he had to shrug his shoulders, shake his head, cast up his eyes, but say nothing. In addition, he preferred to stay outside, far away from her domain .

Poem about phases of water cycle​
Sloan [31]

Explanation:

Water Cycle Poem

Water travels,

Round and round,

From the sky,

To the ground,

In a cycle you can’t see,

Water comes to you and me!

Evaporation is a start,

But it’s not the only part,

From sea to sky,

Vapor floats,

But leaves enough to float in boats!

boat

In the sky,

Water cools,

Forming clouds,

cloud

Like fish form schools,

Condensation makes it dense,

Like dollars have one hundred cents!

dollar bill

Then it falls, precipitation!

It’s like group participation…

Rain and hail,

Sleet and snow,

Water falls,

Plants can grow…

plant in soil

Fills up lakes, and streams, and seas,

We can drink it as we please,

Water used to brush our teeth,

Water wets the coral reef!

Water, water, what we need,

We need water to succeed,

And water cycle keeps it fresh,

Water cycle, you’re the best!
