Through her reflections, the character of the author emerges. What are two of her significant fraits? Identify details from the

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

Two of her character traits are:

She has a strong interest in nature;
She possesses the ability to deeply think about her environment, drawing inferences from them as they relate to human nature.

A. To buttress point 1, in paragraph 4 and 5 of Part II, Annie describes her venture into the woods of the suburbia close to her residence. The second sentence of paragraph 5 depicts that this is a habit. She states

"Then I cut down through the woods to the mossy fallen tree <em><u>where I sit</u></em>."

B. In paragraph 4 of part III, we see how she describes the kind of connection she thinks she shares with the Weasel:

"He disappeared. This was only last week, and already I don't remember what shattered the enchantment. I think I blinked, I think <em><u>I retrieved my brain from the weasel's brain</u></em>, and tried to memorize what I was seeing, and the weasel felt the yank of separation, the careening splashdown into real life and the urgent current of instinct"

In the excerpt above, she thinks she practically shared cerebral connections with the Weasel, so much so that her own thoughts distracted the animal.

Cheers!

Which sentence uses a verb that agrees with its compound subject? A. Either calculators or an adding machine make an accountant'

Sladkaya [172]

I believe B would be the answer, as the subject closest to the verb (rolls) corresponds to the verb (when there is an "or" or "nor" in a sentence, the verb should correspond to the subject closest to it). For A, "adding machine" should correspond to "make," but it doesn't. For C, the subject is plural (team members and the coach), but the verb is singular; the case is the same for D.
