Answer:
A. Dialect
Explanation:
Dialects are different forms of the same language characteristic for specific regions or social groups. For example, someone from the northern part of the USA might say <em>hello</em>, while someone from the South would say <em>howdy.</em>
Irregular subject-verb agreement (<em>they was swimming</em> instead of <em>they were swimming</em>) is a characteristic of some dialects.
The word <em>yonder</em> is archaic or belongs to a dialect. It means <em>over there</em>.
Diction is the choice and use of words and phrases in speech or writing. Every writer has their own diction.
The syntax is a set of rules words and phrases follow to create sentences in a language.
The tone in literature is what the author feels about a certain subject.
A functional/hybrid resume would be more appropriate in this case. chronological order is usually most helpful when detailing work experience, so a potential employer can see where you worked and for how long, so it isn't as easy to apply chronological order to your community involvement or extensive training. what's more appropriate in this case is to emphasize your skills and accomplishments, which is what a functional resume does.

Read the excerpt from chapter 6 of Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy.
One afternoon, after another dreary Sunday, he walked home from Mrs. Cobb's with the sea breeze determined to shove him to Malaga Island. It scooted around him and pulled at his ears. It threw up the dust of the road into his face to turn him around, and when he leaned into it, it suddenly let go and pushed at him from behind, laughing. But with the iron word forbidden tolling like a heavy bell by his ears, Turner would not let himself be brought to Malaga. And so with a last abrupt kick, the sea breeze twisted around and left him. Turner watched it rushing pell-mell down Parker Head and toward the shore. "Go find Lizzie," he whispered.

conflicted
excited
scared
contented
Answer:
conflicted
Explanation:
The story "Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy
," by Gary D. Schmidt, portrays a racial conflict between Phippsburg and Malaga, in which citizens of Malaga Island are put in a mental institution and their homes are destroyed.
