Answer:

Hi. I'm Amanda Princeton. This is the story about the day I was framed for the murder of Mr. Parker.

It happened on the snowiest night in January. I was all alone in my house, sipping hot cocoa as I watch the snowfall just outside my window. I heard a weird noise from outside and noticed the mean old man, Mr. Parker, sinking in the snow. I chuckled to myself, the snow was only six inches deep. He must have tripped or something. I continue watching him struggle to get up from the ground, but then a hand as black as night grabbed him and pulled him completely under the snow. I jumped out of my seat, startled at what I had just witnessed. Did Mr. Parker just... die? I rushed to my room and threw on my snow boots and coat. I quickly made my way to the front door, but I froze as I put my hand on the deadbolt. What if it gets me? I thought to myself. I finally talked myself up just enough to unlock the deadbolt. Next was the lock on the doorknob. I began to shake. If I unlock this door, whatever that's out there could possibly overpower me and get in. I shook my head. I'm not scared of anything! I reassured myself. I unlocked the door and turned the knob. As soon as I did, a strong wind pushed it open. The door swung open and knock me on the ground. It nearly knocked me unconscious! Everything seemed to be fuzzy as I began to get up. As soon as I was on my feet, another gust of wind pushed through the doorway, but this time, a dark figure had come with it. As soon as I laid eyes on it, I fell unconscious.

When I finally came to, I found myself at a police station in cuffs and in a cell. "Wh-what happened?" I stammered. One of the officers walked over to the cell, looking at me with disgust in his eyes. "Mr. Parker was found dead in your basement. We also found his blood all over your coat and on a doorknob. The doorknob was removed from the front door." I began to cry as he told me the story. "It wasn't me! Something was out there! It did it!" I pleaded. "Sure, we'll go with your little fantasy." the officer said as he walked away. I'm telling you this story from a mental asylum. If you ever see this... this thing, don't let it near you. Never, and I mean never, let it near you.

<u>This is the end of this recording. Please rewind the tape to the beginning. Thank you.</u>

"So... Amanda. It seems as if you've been framed for murder? A murder that didn't even happen," Mr. Parker grinned from ear to ear. The basement was dimly lit with the flickering flame of the candles set around an upside-down star. Mr. Parker put a knife to his hand. "Let's see if we can frame someone else."

Use the first letter of the word as clues and make anagrams of the word on the left
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

1.  label

2. prayer

3. punishment

4. astronomer

Explanation:

An anagram is the rearrangement, or switching, of letters of a word/phrase. With this information, the first given letters should serve as a hint (as previously mentioned). For example, number one starts with 'l'. That means you're left with 'a','b','e', and and another 'l'. The word 'label' then becomes a clear choice. This process can then be repeated for the others! Hope I helped!

Match each bolded word in this excerpt from Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Contest" with a word that is closest in meaning. In the ye
nlexa [21]
I found the three words and the choices from another source and these are:

<span>BOLDED WORDS:
singular
approbation
mercenary

CHOICES:
strange
beautiful
shouting
praise
faithful
flattering
punishment

1. Singular - singular, as used in the context, simply means that the design is something remarkable and extraordinary. Since there is no exact word relating to that, we just have to find the closest word with almost the same context. The closest word that we can find among the choices is beautiful.

2. Approbation - approbation is a noun that means approval and acceptance. It denotes all kinds of positive agreement to what the term is referring to. By examining the list of words available, we can find that praise has the nearest meaning to this definition thus this will be the answer.

3. Mercenary - mercenary, by its very definition, is a soldier hired into service for a foreign army. In the context of the passage, however, mercenary is used as a term to denote the faithfulness of the admirers. Like an actual mercenary, the admirers in the passage are loyal. Therefore, the answer for this item is faithful.</span>
