Read the excerpt from chapter 2 of The Awakening.

He was spending his summer vacation, as he always did, with his mother at Grand Isle. In former times, before Robert could remember, “the house” had been a summer luxury of the Lebruns. Now, flanked by its dozen or more cottages, which were always filled with exclusive visitors from the “Quartier Français,” it enabled Madame Lebrun to maintain the easy and comfortable existence which appeared to be her birthright.

Which best explains why the author uses the word “flanked” to describe the layout of cottages in the novel’s setting?
to help the reader visualize a house bordered by smaller cottages
to help the reader understand how the setting changed over time
to help the reader visualize the neighborhood of the “Quartier Français”
to help the reader understand Robert’s relationship with the setting

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. to help the reader visualize a house bordered by smaller cottages

Answer 2

The author uses the word “flanked” to describe the layout of cottages in the novel’s setting as to help the reader visualize a house bordered by smaller cottages. The correct option is (A).

What do you understand by the summary of  "The Awakening"?

The story of a young mother seeking sexual and personal freedom in the restrictive postbellum American South is told in the book A Solitary Soul. Its portrayal of sexuality and infidelity in marriage received harsh criticism when it was initially released.

In The Awakening, the desire of one woman to discover and embrace her authentic self is explored. Her dedication to that goal strains her relationships with her friends and family, as well as the prevailing ideologies of the day.

Therefore, the author uses the word “flanked” to describe the layout of cottages in the novel’s setting as to help the reader visualize a house bordered by smaller cottages.

My childhood dog, Marie, was growing old. Her fur was growing grey and dull, and her health was declining at a rapid rate. The poor thing was diagnosed with a sickness that would cost quite a bit to treat.

Before she got sick, I had been saving some money for myself to buy a nice new computer. It took many years and I gave almost reached it.

My parents didn't want to pay for it and told me it was time to let her go, but I just couldn't.  How could I let my little furry friend that always sticks by my side just die like that?

Time was running out and I had to make a decision.

What was more important? A computer, or my little dog?

I have the rest of my life to buy myself a computer. My dog is way more important to me. So I told my parents that I would pay for her treatment myself, because I love her.

They were hesitant to allow me, but seeing how much I cared for her, they agreed. And now my little fluffy companion is still by my side as I'm writing this.

Explanation:

which is true about using mostly short, simple sentences in your writing?

(A) it makes your writing seem more advanced.
(B) it makes your writing seem more elementary.
(C) it makes your writing seem more complex

Answers

Answer:

I believe the answer is B

Explanation:

You should use sentences that are expressive and use advanced vocabulary words to make your writing seem more advanced.

It makes your writing seem more elementary is true about using mostly short, simple sentences in your writing. Hence, option B is correct.

What is simple sentences?

A basic sentence typically consists of a subject, a verb, and maybe an object and modifiers. It only has one independent clause, though.

A simple sentence consists of just three components: a subject, a verb, and a finished notion. Simple sentence examples include the following: While Joe awaited the train. A late train arrived.

A simple sentence presents a complete notion as an independent clause and includes a subject a person, thing, or activity and a predicate a verb or verbal phrase that defines the action. Dependent or subordinate clauses are not allowed in simple sentences.

Thus, option B is correct.

Writing a topic about ( where we live ) 400 to 500 words

Answers




When we look in the mirror, we realize how time is inexorably running out, and our lives are being consumed.
If we were to look at our city from a 10th floor building, we would see thousands of lives like ours, moving to and from, like ants or robots, mixing and shaping what we call a society.
Throughout time, generations of people like us have been born and have died.
It is unavoidable to question a few times in our fleeting life if what mankind has done is worthy of being called an evolution or an accomplishment.
Our race has evolved from a primitive organization, through the discovery of what mother nature has given us on this little planet, to a more organized form of living and interacting together, which we can call a society.
Our lives have also been transformed by the industrial revolution and technology.
The forms of organizing our societies -- which we can call politics -- have changed from absolute theocracies to the feudal system to the first forms of popular democracy. We have passed through failed experiments, such as communism, naziism and other absolutist regimes, and have also suffered wars which have cost millions of lives and caused widespread bloodshed until just a few generations ago.

Our question – is the current world really any better than it has been for centuries? -- is legitimate.

First, there is no doubt that most of the world population still lives in misery and suffers from starvation, wars and absolutist regimes, deprived of most of technology and basic needs of life, in a way not so different from how our ancestors were living (trying to survive) centuries ago.

Then has the very small part of the world -- called “first world” or “developed countries” -- really achieved a just and fair society and a cozy standard of living?
Most fanatics of technology would surely praise our “gadgets” which seem to make our lives so much better. But I am afraid this is nothing more than an illusion.
Were our grandparents’ lives so much worse just because they had no color TVs, no cell phones, no computer games?

What will our descendants in 200 years say about us?
That our lives were terrible because our cars could not fly, our computers had no protobio-chips and so could not think like humans, our planes could not fly around the planet in 30 minutes?

I don ‘t think so; we cannot desire, or aspire for, what doesn’t exist (yet).

So thinking that we have a meaningful and easy life thanks to the technology and industry revolution is pointless.
The real grain of the question is: Are our lives really better? Are we really happy?
Are we really free and fairly organized by the representatives of our society (politicians)?
Well, from what I can see with my eyes and hear with my ears, I would say the answer is “Not quite.”
Most of the world is in disarray, and people are languishing and suffering as they did in the worst periods of the Middle Age.
The other part of the world sees most of the population (the so called middle class) working like beasts of burden all their lives to receive – if they are lucky -- a miserable pension which will be not enough to help deal with the ailments of old age.
Almost everywhere, including in the most stable democracies of the first world, people are totally discouraged about politics, and don‘t believe the system is fair.
So, what it is the point then, if democracy was supposed to have meant “power of the masses”?
We, ourselves, are supposed to be in charge, through a select group of representatives we elect.
This is what democracy is supposed to be. But this concept is so far from reality, even in the perceptions of the people in the most consolidated political democracies, that we really need to question what is wrong with our society

"I was losing interest in politics" contains Lincoln's sarcasm. The correct option is C.

What is sarcasm?

Sarcasm is a type of verbal irony in which a speaker uses their tone of voice, inflection, or context to convey one thing while actually meaning something else entirely.

It is frequently used to show dissatisfaction, annoyance, or contempt as well as to criticize or ridicule something or someone.

On a day that was supposed to be bright, for instance, if someone says, "Oh great, it's raining again," their tone and context may suggest that they are truly unhappy about the rain and do not find it to be at all fantastic. This would be sarcasm in action.

Thus, the correct option is C.

Imagine you are the Thanksgiving turkey. It is your good fortune to discover that the Farmer accidentally left the door to the house ajar. You sneak in unnoticed. Quickly, you find the computer and log in to Twitter.

You have just enough time to type five tweets. What will you say to your followers in no more than 280 characters (not words!) per tweet?

Answers

Answer:

1. Hello, humanity! My time here is short so I will speak briefly and very directly.

2. Have you ever thought about what it is like to be a turkey at Christmas? or better yet, where do you get the meat that you consume all year?

3. This meat comes from a live animal, which did not wish to die, to be killed to promote the survival of another being. Like everyone else, animals want to live.

4. Animals feel fear, pain, despair and sadness and we enter a state of complete terror when we are habituated so that you can eat our meats.

5. So I ask you to put yourself in our places and reflect on the value of our lives. Sincerely: The turkey.

Explanation:

As you may already know, twitter is a social network that does not allow large texts and everything has to be written in a direct and short form. For this reason, the Christmas turkey quickly decided to address the animals' feelings about being slaughtered so that humans can eat their meat. Peru wanted to make people reflect on how animals deserve respect and feeding on them is not respectful and can be considered cruelty if humans put themselves in their shoes.
