Answer: An act approved May 13, 1938, made the 11th of November in each year a legal holiday—a day to be dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be thereafter celebrated and known as "Armistice Day." Armistice Day was primarily a day set aside to honor veterans of World War I, but in 1954, after World War II had required the greatest mobilization of soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen in the Nation’s history; after American forces had fought aggression in Korea, the 83rd Congress, at the urging of the veterans service organizations, amended the Act of 1938 by striking out the word "Armistice" and inserting in its place the word "Veterans." With the approval of this legislation (Public Law 380) on June 1, 1954, November 11th became a day to honor American veterans of all wars.
Explanation:
This story is about Jerome and Bix, they are two students, the first one is an Afro- American and the second one is a white boy. ¨The Moves Make The Man¨¨ is a sports novel, written by Bruce Brooks. This story deals with many topics such as racism, cruelty, violence, poverty, mental problems, motivation, the deception and truth, its consequences, the psychology of adolescents, society and, in part, religion. The exposition is a part of the story, which precedes the beginning of the plot, gives background information and sometimes prior events. The right answer is B), because Jerome wants to write a book about his disappeared friend Bix. He emphasizes, that he is the only one who can write this story and it`s going to be truthful. Jerome also states, that he doesn`t understand everything, but the whole summary is in his head. He also mentions his point of view on the society and moral values of ¨white churches¨, that he believes are not so good as his, he belongs to. Jerome tells us how he took Bix`s notebook, because his friend let him do it. From one side it was a theft, but Jerome denied that. Bix wanted him to take it and didn`t want his step-father had it. Jerome thought that his step-father would have burnt it and Jerome didn`t think that he had been a thief. The text is full of sorrow and it shows that Jerome loved his friend, he missed him and he wanted to show everyone that Bix wasn`t as bad as society thought. He had disappeared, but Jerome wanted to tell the whole truth of his life in order to show why he did it. There is some information about sports, the source of this information hides in Bix`s notebook, but the answer A) doesn`t fit, and answer C) neither, because Jerome doesn`t mention any social media, which could have caused a problem. Jerome is writing a book, but we don`t know how he is going to use this information. He is seeking the truth and perhaps he is going to publish it, but this question is left unanswered for the readers.
I believe the correct answer is: "Beyond a bare,
weather-worn wall, about a hundred paces from the spot where the two friends
sat looking and listening as they drank their wine, was the village of the
Catalans."
In this excerpt from the novel “The Count Monte Cristo”, written by
Alexander Dumas, the quotation that best contributes to the setting of the
narrative is:
"Beyond a bare, weather-worn wall, about a hundred
paces from the spot where the two friends sat looking and listening as they
drank their wine, was the village of the Catalans."
The setting of the narrative represents the place where
narrative is being unfolded – its surroundings, position. This quotation is the
best contribution to the setting as it describes the place where the story
begins (beyond a bare, weather-worn wall, hundred paces from the spot… the village
of the Catalans).
Answer:
B. idioms
Explanation:
<u>Idioms are phrases or expressions that say one thing but are in fact conveying a different meaning which is previously culturally established. </u>
If one tries to understand them literally, they won’t have much sense. Yet, those who know language proficiently will understand the meaning of these phases in a metaphoric sense accepted in the common language and the symbolic matter.
<u>Some of the examples can be:</u>
- <u>when the pigs fly</u> – this means something will never happen, as pigs do not fly
- <u>piece of cake</u> – means something is very easily achieved and accomplished with little effort.
- <u>to pull someone’s leg </u>– idiom meaning to joke with someone, to make them believe in something which is not true, but in a playful way. \
- <u>to break the ice</u> – meaning to do something first and make others at ease, to relieve the tension.
