I need a diary entry for Old man Warner from the Lottery
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Old Man Warner, the oldest man in town, has participated in seventy-seven lotteries and is a staunch advocate for keeping things exactly the way they are. He dismisses the towns and young people who have stopped having lotteries as “crazy fools,” and he is threatened by the idea of change. He believes, illogically, that the people who want to stop holding lotteries will soon want to live in caves, as though only the lottery keeps society stable. He also holds fast to what seems to be an old wives’ tale—“Lottery in June, corn be heavy soon”—and fears that if the lottery stops, the villagers will be forced to eat “chickweed and acorns.” Again, this idea suggests that stopping the lottery will lead to a return to a much earlier era, when people hunted and gathered for their food. These illogical, irrational fears reveal that Old Man Warner harbors a strong belief in superstition. He easily accepts the way things are because this is how they’ve always been, and he believes any change to the status quo will lead to disaster. This way of thinking shows how dangerous it is to follow tradition blindly, never questioning beliefs that are passed down from one generation to the next.

With a writhing motion, [Edna] settled herself more securely in the hammock. She perceived that her will had blazed up, stubborn
mario62 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer here is A)

The author uses strong adjectives and figurative language.

Explanation:

Adjectives are words used to characterise, explain or modify nouns or pronouns.

In the sentence above, stubborn, blazed-up and resistant function both as adjectives and as figurative expressions.

Adjectives because the author uses them to qualify Edna's will.

Figurative because, they suggest another form of meaning which in this context, of course, are used to project the strength and resilience of Edna's will.

Another example of the use of a figurative language is:

You are my diamond.

Cheers!

What is the independent clause and what is the dependent clause? Where should I add the punctuation?
pishuonlain [190]

Hello, I am here to help. Don't worry about the points!

To figure out the Independent and dependent clauses in the sentence provided, we first need to simplify the grammar and get to the core meaning of the sentence. If we can find the meaning and restructure the sentence, it will help show you which clause is dependent and which is independent.  

Sentence: It is very important more important than the grade that I learn the material.

The meaning of this sentence is: It is important that I learn the material, more important than the grade.

How do we get that meaning from the confusing words above? If we take out "more important that the grade," we are left with "It is very important that I learn the material."

We now have our two clauses:

"It is very important that I learn the material"

and

"more important than the grade"

Which of these clauses can stand on its own as a complete sentence? The answer is "It is very important that I learn the material." That makes this the dependent clause, which means "more important than the grade" the dependent clause.

To relieve the confusion, you have to set the clauses apart in the sentence. The easiest way to do this is to put commas around the dependent clause to set it apart from the independent clause.

The correct way to punctuate the sentence is: It is very important, more important than the grade, that I learn the material.

Now you can easily see the two clauses and understand the meaning of the sentence.
