The word choices in the lines affect the mood of the story by making it tiring and strange. Words such as "tired" and "noisy" convey the lack of silence and, therefore, the exhaustion. Words such as "new" and "unfamiliar" convey the strangeness the character feels.

<h3>What is mood?</h3>

In literature, mood can be defined as the atmosphere created by an author in order to evoke certain feelings and emotions from his readers. To create a certain mood, diction, imagery, and setting are very useful.

In the excerpt we are analyzing here, the words "tired", "noisy", "new" and "unfamiliar" help create a tiring and strange mood. The character is clearly exhausted from dealing with a new and strange environment.

I'm sorry I can't give a more specific answer, since I don't understand the story, but if the guy who asked where she was going is the antagonist of the story, then if the girl need to get past the antagonist, then she could find the marker that was "lost".

I may be too late.

I have never had this assignment so I may not understand that well.

Have a good day and week!

Nicki dashed up the shore and into the forest not stopping to think. She could feel the footsteps behind her the nameless thugs
Genrish500 [490]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The second statement in the given excerpt illustrates that Nicki is a round character. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

This is because she is feeling the footsteps of the thugs and also is able to think about their behaviour or character. She can compare their characteristics with the sacks of sugar because it can be bought and sold. She is not indulging into deep thinking by stopping in the woods. Rather she knows and thinks while moving forward and figuring out what to do.

Vlad1618 [11]
Okay well Caesar and Brutus were friends of course. When Brutus decides to join the conspirators in their plot to kill Caesar. The second downfall is that he refused to listen to Cassius. Cassius told Brutus to kill Antony along with Caesar but he did not want the conspirators to appear as butchers so he allowed Antony to live And the last downfall is when he gave Antony permission to speak at Caesars funeral Again Cassius warned Brutus not to let Antony speak Cassius feared that Antony would turn the people against the conspirators and that exactly what happened Brutus had to flea for his life which ultimately lead to his dead.
