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.

What are gerunds and participles?​
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Gerunds, Infinitives, and Participles are all types of verbs. A gerund is a verb that ends with -ing (such as dancing, flying, etc.), that functions as a noun. An infinitive is a verb that is preceded by the word “to” (such as to run, to fly, to play, etc.). A participle also ends in -ing like a gerund, but it does not function as a noun. Instead, they form the progressive tense of a verb. They can sometimes function as an adjective, but not always.

Answer:

c. User applications usually communicate directly with a device driver.

Explanation:

A software can be defined as a set of executable instructions (codes) or collection of data that is used typically to instruct a computer on how to perform a specific task and solve a particular problem. Thus, it's a computer program or application that comprises of sets of code for performing specific tasks on the system.

The four (4) input-output (I/O) software layers includes the following;

I. Interrupt drivers (handlers): it is responsible for handling interruptions that occur while using a software on a computer system.

II. Device drivers: it controls the input-output (I/O) devices that are connected to a computer system through a wired or wireless connection.

III. Device-independent OS software: it allows for uniform interfacing and buffering for device drivers.

IV. User level software: it provides user programs with a simple user interface to perform input and output functions.

An operating system is a system software pre-installed on a computing device to manage or control software application, computer hardware and user processes.

This ultimately implies that, an operating system acts as an interface or intermediary between the computer end user and the hardware portion of the computer system (computer hardware) in the processing and execution of instructions.

Hence, user (software) applications make a request to the operating system (OS) to use a device and then the operating system (OS) communicates with the device driver.

In conclusion, user applications do not communicate directly with a device driver.
