Triumphantly is an adverb, so you would be looking for the verb that it modifies. I would choose the word “pressing.” Ask yourself, “how did he press down the alarm knob?” He pressed it triumphantly.

HELP 30 POINTS! A Daring and Dastardly Deed: Act 1, Scene 2: Hannah and her mother are at the supermarket. They are waiting in l
emmainna [20.7K]

After a country loses a war it would be logical that to keep citizens’ enthusiasm up, it would be required to disinform the citizens for them to continue working hard and not revolting. Unfortunately disinforming citizens wasn’t the only tactic governments like Germany used to counter loss of enthusiasm upon their citizens. Arresting protestors, propaganda, abusive police powers, and censorship were also tactics Germany used to combat loss of enthusiasm. Examples of propaganda Germany publicized were normally pictures with resilient soldiers saying things like “we’re almost there” and other phrases to keep citizens' hopes up and even enlist to go to war.

The Treaty of Versailles was created after WWI to get things even with all countries affected by the war. This left Germany in a very bad position considering all the debts they had to pay to the other countries they hurt. With this high debt and lingering guilt, it left Germany with anger worthy of starting another war. Germany ended up disinforming their population and deluding their population into thinking it was the fault of minorities like Jews that caused the mishaps of war.

Haha did the dirty deed

hope it helps :):):)

What clues does the author leave for the reader to foreshadow Charlie’s manipulation of Gaby and Carmen? (Due tomorrow)
nexus9112 [7]

A good example of how foreshadowing can be used in a story is shown below:

If an author wants to foreshadow that someone would manipulate a person later in the story, he would make use of details like:

  • The character who would manipulate, showing signs of cunning and treachery

  • The character that would be manipulated, trusts the would-be manipulator blindly..

With the use of such details, it is easy to see that based on the implicit trust of the character in the cunning character would eventually lead him to being manipulated and deceived.

<h3>What is Foreshadowing?</h3>

This refers to the literary element that is used to give hints or clues about what would happen in the future of a story.

This is a useful tool that is used to create suspense, build anticipation about coming events, character development, etc and this is used to advance a plot.

Hence, we can see that your question is incomplete so I gave you a general overview of the use of foreshadowing so you would better understand the concept.
