My dad Mike and I were vacationing on Nantucket island, off the coast of Massachusetts. We had left home, which is Concord New Hampshire and had arrived at the ferry boat Nantucket Queen.  

The next day we rented a boat and sailed into Grebers Bay, the voices of other sailors the sound of the water beneath us and the flapping of the overhead sails were pleasant, suddenly the peaceful scene, was interrupted by shouts from another boat that had turned and was heading right into us watch out two men yelled excitedly,  

"We've lost control of our boat! Grab the tiller John" dad yelled to me "pull it toward you when I give the signal"

"All right dad" I responded dad grabbed the sail and as he adjusted it he yelled at me.

"Now John, pull back", I did what he said not a moment too soon, *whew* what a narrow escape! The other boat passed within twenty-two inches of ours.

Hope I helped!!

How does Pip's interaction with Joe develop the theme of perseverance in the excerpt? A. At the beginning, Pip feels resentful,
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

D. At the beginning, Pip feels blue, but by the end he feels optimistic.

Explanation:

Hello. You did not enter the text to which the question refers, which may leave this answer a little inaccurate.

However, Pip is a character who presents several moments of sadness and discouragement due to his social and economic status, his inability to achieve his goals and the harsh behavior his sister has towards him. however Joe always puts Pip on top, stating how he will have the chance to win the world and be a great home, which excites Pip every time and promotes an optimistic and happy feeling.

The young docent welcomed the class to the museum, explaining that the east wing was under construction and he’d be leading them
Elden [556K]

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

The young docent welcomed the class to the museum, explaining that the east wing was under construction and he’d be leading them to the first exhibit. His fingers leapt to his name tag as he nervously introduced himself as "Liam, a student of the arts." Then he bade the group follow him. They traversed a vaulted hall lined with hulking objects, each one obscured by a faded tarpaulin. Some of the items stretched across the floor, others cast long shadows on the museum walls. What technique does the author use to build suspense in the excerpt?

A. word choice

B. quickening the pace of the story

C. intentionally omitting setting details

D. making the outcome of events uncertain

Answer:

The correct answer is <u>C. intentionally omitting setting details .</u>

<u />

Explanation:

The author of this passage only gives us enough information to know where the characters are, and that the place is a bit scary. We know it's a museum, but we don't know what it looks like. There are items, "hulking objects", but the author does not offer any details. We don't know what these objects are; all we know is that they stretch across the floor or cast long shadows. The same goes for the museum. The lack of details prevents readers from visualizing it clearly. We know the man and the class are at a vaulted hall. The color of the walls, the lighting, the atmosphere, all of it is omitted. That technique helps create suspense, since, without much information, we do not know what to expect.

What conclusion can be drawn about Okonkwo?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

A). Okonkwo thinks his daughter Ezinma should have been a boy because she is strong and violent.

Explanation:

'Things Fall Apart' by Chinua Achebe is one of the most acknowledged African novels that primarily aims to reclaim the African culture and critique the colonialism and its dark side.

As per the question, the conclusion that can be drawn regarding Okonkwo is that 'he thinks that his daughter Ezinma should have been born a boy as she possesses a bolder attitude and strong and violent character.' <u>She owns the masculine characteristics like brazenness and confidence in her behavior which makes her fit in the traditional role like her father</u>. She sits like boys and does not fear to take on their tasks too. Due to these characteristics, Okonkwo thinks she should have been a boy. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
