Part A In the story "Life on the Sea," how does Marla feel about her husband's job as a fishing boat captain? She thinks he is a

selfish fool for risking his life as he does. She is thrilled that he is doing something he loves. She wishes he had a job that let him be home more often. She wishes he had a job that made more money. Question 2 Part B Which excerpts from the story best support the answer in Part A? Select the two correct answers. "He had tried things her way, but that had only lasted a couple years; after a while, she could tell that he was miserable, and she gave him her permission to do what he loved." "He gave his job two weeks’ notice and was back on the sea right away." "She couldn’t grasp why he didn’t get the same satisfaction from life behind a desk..." "His wife, Marla, didn’t understand his obsession with the water, why he spent months of the year navigating a boat full of crab fishermen to isolated spots of the ocean hundreds of miles away from shore."

Marla would like her husband to have a job that would allow him to come home more often.

The excerpts that show this are:

"His wife, Marla, didn’t understand his obsession with the water, why he spent months of the year navigating a boat full of crab fishermen to isolated spots of the ocean hundreds of miles away from shore."

"She couldn’t grasp why he didn’t get the same satisfaction from life behind a desk..."

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Marla's husband's job requires him to spend a lot of time away from home.
  • She doesn't like it because she misses him and believes it would be better if he found another job that would allow him to have a family life.
  • He asks her husband to answer her claims, which he does, but he is very unhappy, as he enjoys life at sea a lot.
  • Marla doesn't understand the reasons for this, but she sees him unhappy and that's why she asks him to go back to doing what he loves.

With that, we can understand that Marla is a very understanding person, who doesn't agree, but understands her husband's love for the sea.

1. Based on the selection, why is the title "More Than a Whistle" appropriate?
BaLLatris [955]

The title is appropriate because El Silbo is a whistled language, but it also represents a traditional way of life in La Gomera, as shown in the second answer option.

<h3>What is the importance of a text title?</h3>
  • Provide a short introduction to the text.
  • Emphasize an important point in the text.
  • Inform the reader about the text.

The title "More Than a Whistle" is very appropriate because it shows the reader that El Silbo is something very important and significant that goes beyond a simple whistle, as it represents a way of life of a culture.

Based on Agamemnon’s and Amphimedon’s speeches in The Odyssey - Amphimedon, how have the characters been changed by their deaths
melisa1 [442]

Both of them change in a significant way after their deaths.

Agamemnon even says: <em>“Imagine I and Achilles, wrangling over a girl, battling man-to-man. And I, 1 was the first to let my anger flare. Ah if the two of us could ever think as one, Troy could delay her day of death no longer, not one moment”.</em>

They don't show much anger regarding how they died or the fact that they did. So we can ignore the second and third options. Their change is regarding humility, which is something that they did not possess before they were dead. This eliminates the 4th options, leaving us with the correct answer:

* Both show humility after their deaths.
