From the book "The Things They Carried" What experience/event in the memoir has the biggest impact on Tim O'Brien/Lieutenant Jimmy Cross and why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Experience of getting responsibility, before sufficient maturity.

Explanation:

Jimmy Cross's character from 'The things they carried' - displays the immense effect untimely (early) responsibility has on people, when they are immature to manage it.

Example : He takes important responsibilities, like reserve officer training, but is uncertain regarding its many aspects. He feels very guilty when any of his men dies, & is unable to handle the trauma.

Read the following excerpt from "Woman Who Helped Hide Anne Frank Dies at 100" by Teri Schultz.

SCHULTZ: But Gies clearly was very special, even when someone still unknown betrayed those she called the hiders and they were taken away at gunpoint to death camps. Gies was not intimidated. She sneaked back into the secret hideaway to try to preserve any belongings of the Franks that hadn't been destroyed or taken. And there she found what would eventually become a treasure of the entire world.

Which detail is most important to include in a summary of the excerpt?

Someone unknown betrayed the hiders, and they were taken away at gunpoint.
Gies was very special and not intimidated even after the Franks were taken.
Gies sneaked back into the hideaway to preserve the Franks’ belongings.

Read the passage. One day my charwoman, a working man's wife, came to beg me to honor her sister's wedding with my presence. If you are to realize what this wedding was like, you must know that I paid my charwoman, poor creature, four francs a month; for which sum she came every morning to make my bed, clean my shoes, brush my clothes, sweep the room, and make ready my breakfast, before going to her day's work of turning the handle of a machine, at which hard drudgery she earned fivepence. Her husband, a cabinetmaker, made four francs a day at his trade; but as they had three children, it was all that they could do to gain an honest living. Yet I have never met with more sterling honesty than in this man and his wife. (from "Facino Cane" by Honoré de Balzac) What does the author's use of the term "sterling" in the last sentence mostly imply about the charwoman and her husband?
1. They have earned the admiration of the narrator.
02. They have widespread recognition as hard workers.
O 3. They have proven that they are able to live on very little.
4. They have struggled to save money for the sister's wedding.​

Answers

Answer: 1

Explanation: 2 seems like a good answer but no one else knows them but the narrator and the reader so it can't be 2. 3 they have proven that they can live on very little money but sterling has nothing to do with that. 4 is basically like 3. So all that's left it's 1 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I hopped on one foot WHILE I pulled off the wet sock. coordinating conjunction subordinating conjunction correlative conjunction

Answers

Answer:

Subordinating conjunction.

Explanation:

A subordinating conjunction is a conjunction that not only joins two sentences together but also acts as the link for the two clauses in such a way that the informative value of the whole sentence is made whole. This type of conjunction links a dependent clause with an independent clause.

In the sentence "I hopped on one foot while I pulled off the wet sock", the word "WHILE" acts as the subordinating conjunction. It helps join the two clauses together and also adds informational value to the first clause.

Thus, the correct answer is a subordinating conjunction.

Lyle Davis and his family were driving to Sarasota to visit the bat habitat. Lyle had been looking forward to the trip for weeks, and by the time they finally got started, his head was spinning like a top. Once they got onto the highway, however, Lyle’s dad began to look confused.
“This just doesn’t look right,” Mr. Davis kept repeating as he drove. Lyle looked out of the car window and sighed. The other cars crawled over the highway like ants on an anthill. Everyone knows where they are going except for us, Lyle thought to himself.
“These roads twist and turn like a pile of snakes,” Mr. Davis muttered. Lyle’s mom suggested they pull into a nearby gas station and buy a map.
“Please, Dad?” begged Lyle. They stopped to buy a map. Mr. Davis’ confusion soon cleared up like fog beneath the bright afternoon sun.
“Sarasota Bat Cave, here we come!” Lyle cheered happily.

B)

o
The poet writes about wounds and bleeding as
positive.
D)
An understanding is not usually seen as something
that should be hurtful.

Answers

An understanding is not usually seen as something that should be hurtful  makes lines 12-13 an example of situational irony. Hence, option D is correct.

What is situational irony?

Situational irony happens when the outcome is completely the opposite of what was expected. Situational irony is the result of events not turning out as expected, like a baker having a flour allergy.

When something unexpectedly odd or funny occurs, often in a manner that drastically deviates from our expectations. A burning fire station is the best illustration of situational irony. We would assume that a place meant for putting out flames would have the lowest likelihood of being on fire, however the fire defies our assumptions.

The Sixth Sense, a movie, may have used situational irony the most famously. By the time Cole can "see dead people" at the end of the movie, we know that Bruce Willis's character has departed away.

Thus, option D is correct.
