I believe the excerpt is this:

When I was sold to the Li family, my mother let Mrs. Li take me only after she'd promised that I would be taught to read. "Her mother had fourteen other children starving and clinging to her, yet she was still insisting that I promise." Mrs. Li sniffed and began a high-pitched imitation. "'Promise me that when she's six, you'll have her taught to read! On your ancestors' grave! Promise!'"

Answer: ACCORDING TO THE EXCERPT ABOVE

B. It foreshadows that learning to read will be important to later events in the story.

IF that was the right excerpt, and I answered correctly, and I could help, Please mark me brainliest.

Thanks!

D) Fill in the blanks with a correct form, the PAST SIMPLE or the PAST CONTINUOUS:

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

1. He was talking with Mary, when Mrs. Smith came in.

2. They studied two hours last night.

3. Jane was sleeping when the telephone rang.

4. As I was walking to the lab, I met my friend.

5. We watched TV last night.

6. The customer was paying his cheque when he dropped his credit card.

7. The barber cut my hair yesterday.

8. She was dancing when she hurt her ankle.

9. It was raining hard when I got up.

10. It rained hard last night.

Explanation:

Past Simple or Past Indefinite:

This tense is usually used when the sentence has an adverb of past tense, e.g last ----- , yesterday, ago.

The sentences No. 2, 5, 7 and 10 all have adverbs of past tense i.e yesterday or last.

Past Continuous:

We use this tense when talking about some event of past, that was taking place or happening at that specific time.

We also use Past Continuous tense when some event was already taking place or in the process, and some other even took place at that time. However if some event had already taken place some other event in the past, we use Past Perfect. Since there is no option to use Past Perfect Tense in this question, we can safely use Past Continuous Tense in sentences No. 1, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 9.

seropon [69]

Answer:

4.6; sun; planet; moons.

Explanation:

Our Solar System was formed around 4.6 billion years ago from a giant cloud of gases and rocks that gravity pulled together. Most of the matter formed the sun while the rest formed planets, moons and other smaller bodies such as asteroids or large rocks.

A planet can be defined as a large celestial body having sufficient mass to allow for self-gravity and make it assume a nearly circular shape (hydrostatic equilibrium), revolves in an orbit around the Sun in the solar system and has a cleared neighborhood.

Basically, the planets are divided into two (2) main categories and these includes;

I. Outer planets: these planets are beyond the asteroid belt and comprises of jupiter, saturn, uranus and neptune, from left to right of the solar system.

II. Inner planets: these planets are the closest to the sun and comprises of mercury, venus, earth and mars.

These outer planets are made mostly of gases (hydrogen and helium) causing them to be less dense than the solid inner planets. These gases are generally known to be less dense in terms of physical properties.

Some examples of the planet are Mars, Venus, Earth, Mercury, Neptune, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, etc.

Furthermore, a force of gravity controls the movement of the planets around the sun in the solar system, holds together stars which are grouped in galaxies, as well as galaxies grouped in clusters.

This ultimately implies that, gravity is considered to be a universal force of attraction that acts between all objects that has both mass, energy and can occupy space. Therefore, it acts in such a way as to bring objects together.

Additionally, the gravity of earth makes it possible for all physical objects to possess weight.
