Answer:

illustrate the feelings of the characters.

In this passage, the dialogue serves to illustrate the feelings of the characters. We can see that Acrisius is angry, as he asks who the father of the child is. We can also see that Danae is proud to state that Zeus is the father. Both pride and anger are feelings, which are illustrated by the dialogue in the passage. Other ways to express the feelings that the characters of a story are having is through their actions or by using an omniscient narrator.

Answer:

Illustrate the feelings of the characters.

Explanation:

In this passage it is obvious that Acrisius is angry because of the exclamation mark used and because it is written that he "cried on great anger". It also shows that he is in doubt about Danaë's response, because of the words used("he would not believe her"). It also gives us the hint that Acrisius just found out a long hidden secret.

Which best explains why the author uses the word “flanked” to describe the layout of cottages in the novel’s setting? to help th

tiny-mole [99]

The answer is to help the reader visualize a house bordered by smaller cottages

He was spending his summer vacation, as he always did, with his mother at Grand Isle. In former times, before Robert could remember, "the house" had been a summer luxury of the Lebruns. Now, flanked by its dozen or more cottages, which were always filled with exclusive visitors from the "Quartier Français," it enabled Madame Lebrun to maintain the easy and comfortable existence which appeared to be her birthright.

The author uses the word flanked meaning, according to Cambridge "to be at the side of someone or something" to let the reader imagine a large, luxurious and expensive house surrounded by small cottages but equally important since they were exclusive to the inhabitants of the French quarter.

A 'sense of liberation' through the image of 'whips going in flames' while the 'reasons for rebellion is emphasized' through the representation of confinements put on the animals('dog chains, nose-rings, cruel knives, etc.). The readers are able to imagine the victory of animals which is displayed via the image of 'flaming whips.' Thus, options B, C, D, and E are the correct answers.
