Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Read the following sentence and determine if the words in bold are homographs or homophones. Then, choose the answer that correctly identifies which type it is and correctly defines what homograph or homophone means.

Mother announced that the plain cream cheese was not to be eaten until we were crossing the plains in Kansas.

A. Homograph; the two words are pronounced the same but have different meanings and sometimes different spellings.

B. Homophone; the two words are written the same but have different meanings and sometimes different pronunciations.

C. Homophone; the two words are pronounced the same but have different meanings and sometimes different spellings.

D. Homograph; the two words are written the same but have different meanings and sometimes different pronunciations.

Answer:

C. Homophone; the two words are pronounced the same but have different meanings and sometimes different spellings.

Explanation:

The words "plain" and "plains" are examples of homophones. This means that these words have the same pronunciation, but have totally different meanings, within a sentence. Often, homophone words have the same spelling, or slightly different spellings as is the case for "plain" and "plains", but the real way to identify this type of word is through the same pronoun, but with a different meaning.

Homograph, on the other hand, are words that are written in the same way, but have different meanings.

Which statement below has been written objectively? a Students that experience bullying are weak. b High school students involve
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: The statement that has been written objectively is D. The 62% of high school students that experience cyber bullying, and bullying is signaling an epidemic in schools across the US.

Explanation: An objective statement is a statement that shows a lack of bias and judgment. In other words, an objective statement does not reflect the opinions, emotions or prejudices that the individual who gives it has. Therefore<u>, option D. is the only one that has been written objectively since it presents an idea that derives from a precise statistic, that is to say information obtained after carrying out a study</u>. Therefore, option D. does not express a mere opinion. In contrast, all the other options reflect the writers' bias and judgements.

Remark

Left Pane

What is freedom? What do people mean when they say they want freedom? Is that really what Andrew wants? Does he know? Suppose someone gave him 10 million dollars. What would that mean?

Would it mean he would never have to return to the business of packing grocery bags and listening to blaring announcements that really mean nothing to him? Would it mean that he could do anything he wanted? Would it mean that he could live endlessly on a beach when he wasn't driving around. Yes, it would mean all of those freedoms. That's what Andrew thinks is Freedom.

So having defined Freedom for Andrew, where do we find it in the writing. Begin with the second paragraph. Gets home, turns on the ignition and kicks the thing into a high roar. And off he goes.

He's responsible. So he starts off slow, but soon speeds up to keep up with the highway traffic. That's part of the freedom: keeping up with whoever is on the highway -- fast driving. Andrew always preferred driving in open air. Wherever he lives, Open Air feels good. [Good thing he doesn't live in Canada where it can get to > - 40oC.]

He dreams of riding forever and never returning to his job. That's freedom. Just find the sentences that say what I've said.

Middle Pane

<em><u>One:</u></em> The first one depends on what you are told. The character is against a whole bunch of people, plus whoever is competing in the Marathon. I would say it is character against society because there is no one person he is competing against. Check your notes.

<em><u>Two:</u></em> A Snake bite? Are snakes not a part of nature? It's man against nature.

<em><u>Three:</u></em>  A husband and wife arguing? What else is new? Character against character.

<em><u>Four:</u></em> Character vs. Self. What shall she do? There's no one else in this scenario. So it is one character vs no one else but herself.

Right Pane

For this one, I'm just going to post an answer. If you disagree, use your answer. The sentence at the end of the first paragraph is the one I would go with. "The world to me what a secret which I desired to divine." Yes he likes the female and she is a good companion, but he finds nature much more interesting. You could pick the next  sentence as well.

All that day Mowgli sat in the cave tending his fire-pot and dipping dry branches into it to see how they looked. He found a bra
ANTONII [103]

All that day Mowgli sat in the cave tending his fire pot and dipping dry branches into it to see how they looked. He found a branch that satisfied him, and in the evening when Tabaqui came to the cave and told him rudely enough that he was wanted at the Council Rock, he laughed till Tabaqui ran away. Then Mowgli went to the Council, still laughing.

Akela the Lone Wolf lay by the side of his rock as a sign that the leadership of the Pack was open, and Shere Khan with his following of scrap-fed wolves walked to and fro openly being flattered. Bagheera lay close to Mowgli, and the fire pot was between Mowgli's knees. When they were all gathered together, Shere Khan began to speak-a thing he would never have dared to do when Akela was in his prime.

"He has no right," whispered Bagheera. "Say so. He is a dog's son. He will be frightened."

Mowgli sprang to his feet. "Free People," he cried, "does Shere Khan lead the Pack? What has a tiger to do with our leadership?"

"Seeing that the leadership is yet open, and being asked to speak-" Shere Khan began.

"By whom?" said Mowgli. "Are we all jackals, to fawn on this cattle butcher? The leadership of the Pack is with the Pack alone."

There were yells of "Silence, thou man's cub!" "Let him speak. He has kept our Law"; and at last the seniors of the Pack thundered: "Let the Dead Wolf speak." When a leader of the Pack has missed his kill, he is called the Dead Wolf as long as he lives, which is not long.

Akela raised his old head wearily:-

"Free People, and ye too, jackals of Shere Khan, for twelve seasons I have led ye to and from the kill, and in all that time not one has been trapped or maimed. Now I have missed my kill.

Ye know how that plot was made. Ye know how ye brought me up to an untried buck to make my weakness known. It was cleverly done.

Your right is to kill me here on the Council Rock, now.

Therefore, I ask, who comes to make an end of the Lone Wolf? For it is my right, by the Law of the Jungle, that ye come one by one."

There was a long hush, for no single wolf cared to fight Akela to the death. Then Shere Khan roared: "Bah! What have we to do with this toothless fool? He is doomed to die! It is the man-cub who has lived too long. Free People, he was my meat from the first. Give him to me! I am weary of this man-wolf folly. He has troubled the jungle for ten seasons. Give me the man-cub, or I will hunt here always, and not give you one bone! He is a man, a man's child, and from the marrow of my bones I hate him!"

Then more than half the Pack yelled: "A man! A man! What has a man to do with us? Let him go to his own place."

"And turn all the people of the villages against us?" clamored Shere Khan. "No, give him to me. He is a man, and none of us can look him between the eyes."

Akela lifted his head again and said, "He has eaten our food.

He has slept with us. He has driven game for us. He has broken no word of the Law of the Jungle."

"Also, I paid for him with a bull when he was accepted. The worth of a bull is little, but Bagheera's honour is something that he will perhaps fight for," said Bagheera in his gentlest voice.

"A bull paid ten years ago!" the Pack snarled. "What do we care for bones ten years old?"

"Or for a pledge?" said Bagheera, his white teeth bared under his lip. "Well are ye called the Free People!"

"No man's cub can run with the people of the jungle," howled Shere Khan. "Give him to me!"

"He is our brother in all but blood," Akela went on, "and ye would kill him here! In truth, I have lived too long. Some of ye are eaters of cattle, and of others I have heard that, under Shere Khan's teaching, ye go by dark night and snatch children from the villager's doorstep. Therefore I know ye to be cowards, and it is to cowards I speak.

"It is certain that I must die, and my life is of no worth, or I would offer that in the man-cub's place. But for the sake of the Honor of the Pack,-a little matter that by being without a leader ye have forgotten,-I promise that if ye let the man-cub go to his own place, I will not, when my time comes to die, bare one tooth against ye. I will die without fighting. That will at least save the Pack three lives. MoreI cannot do; but if ye will, I can save ye the shame that comes of killing a brother against whom there is no fault-a brother spoken for and bought into the Pack according to the Law of the Jungle."

"He is a man!-a man!-a man!" snarled the Pack. And most of the wolves began to gather round Shere Khan, whose tail was beginning to switch.

"Now the business is in thy hands," said Bagheera to Mowgli.

"We can do no more except fight."
