Answer:

The meaning of the word bridge as it is used in the sentence is:

a. A room from which a ship is controlled.

Explanation:

Let's not be tempted to choose letter D. It refers to the most common meaning of the word bridge. <u>The correct option is actually letter A. When it comes to cruise ships, the bridge is the room where the captain and his crew control the direction, speed, and other functions of the ship. When Emily was taken to this room, she saw the officers and the captain managing things, which made her feel safe.</u>

"Ha! ha! ha!--he! he! he!--a very good joke indeed--an excellent jest. We shall have many a rich laugh about it at the palazzo--
Nikolay [14]
The answer is...
<span>Fortunato thinks Montresor has played a joke on him.
</span>
He literally is so drunk, that he doesn't understand that his "friend" was building a wall to cover up the room where he had chained him inside the catacombs. IF he were to be hoping that this is all a joke (second choice) He would be able to understand the situation, wouldn't be laughing... and try as hard as he could to get out. In this case he is just laughing at the "joke" his "friend" has played on him.  

Good Luck! :)

In the story "Terrible Things: an allegory of the holocaust" why did the author tell the story in a symbolic way?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The author uses symbolism to describe such a serious subject as the Holocaust because the book is aimed at children and young adults.

Explanation:

Eve Bunting´s story is a picture book for children. The title makes it clear that the main theme is the holocaust. However, the story itself is about the forest animals being subdued by "terrible things." They remain silent as their neighbors are taken away. There´s no direct reference to the Holocaust, but the story is a powerful reminder of such a dark historical event. Bunting is known for portraying serious topics in a way that is approachable to children and young adults.
