2. (a) A specter is a source of terror or dread. Why might Carson have chosen this work in the last

sentence of the excerpt? (b) What book does this word choice create?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

This question is about "Silent Spring"

1. Carson decided to show this work at the end of the text to reinforce the idea that the problems that a city would face, caused by the environmental imbalance that has reduced the number of animals, would provoke an intense feeling of terror and would represent the end of humanity.

2. The word "specter" creates a sensitive book. This is because this word represents an imagery and is used with the aim of intensifying the reader's feelings about the text.

How does the pacing of this passage move the plot
forward?
Read the excerpt from chapter 6 of Animal Farm.
Every Monday Mr. Whymper visited the farm as had
been arranged. He was a sly-looking little man with
side whiskers, a solicitor in a very small way of
business, but sharp enough to have realized earlier
than anyone else that Animal Farm would need a
broker and that the commissions would be worth
having. The animals watched his coming and going
with a kind of dread, and avoided him as much as
possible.
O The quick pace makes readers suspenseful and
confused about Mr. Whymper.
O The quick pace allows the author to pass an
uneventful period of time quickly.
The slow pace helps to place emphasis on the
animals' dread of Mr. Whymper.

I'd suggest going skimming through first with a few highlighters, colour coding so one colour's for metaphors, another's for key quotes, etc, with whatever you want. You can also just go through with one colour, highlighting different language techniques. Really just highlight whatever u want to get out of the text.

Once that's done, read the parts you've highlighted more thoroughly and make notes in the margins with a pen/pencil. Comment on structure and language, that kinda stuff. After u do one thorough reading, skim through again really quick and make any other notes u want to.

I think that's about it! hope this helped!

A man said to me recently, "I would like before I die to live in a community where no individual has an income that could not provide his family with the ordinary comforts and pleasures of life, and where no individual has an income so large that he did not have to think about his expenditures, and where the spread between is not so great but that the essentials of life may lie within the possession of all concerned. There could be no give and take in many ways for pleasure, but there need be no acceptance of charity."

What is the main idea of this selection?

We can all work together to build a perfect world of equality.
We should realize that family is more important than money and status.
We must meet people’s essential needs for people to be happy.
We should always take pleasure in the simple things in life.

We arrived at the camp and slept in log cabins. It was
the coldest night of my life. Here the weather is terribly
cold. It can get as cold as -60 °C. The best thing here is
the wild life and the arctic beauty. Polar bears, red fores,
seals and moose are fascinating. I'll show you the photos

the duties. The worst thing is that I have to cook. The best
thing is that I don't have to do the washing up. Dennis has

the wood with Thomas and light the fire. They have to

Nonverbal communication sends powerful messages through body language and facial expressions. This set of questions covers nonverbal behavior as it is typically expressed in U.S. business culture. Your country or culture may use different styles of nonverbal communication. When a person meets a group of people for the first time, he or she pays more attention to:

Answers

Answer:

Body language, the sounds of conversation (angry, happy, animated, and so forth), and people’s expressions

Explanation:

In my culture, which is the United States culture, body language is a stronger means of communication than verbal language. For example, if a person were to greet another in an angry tone, the visitor would sense danger and might not be comfortable with such a greeting.

Also, if a person meets a group of people for the first time, and they are all wearing a frown on their faces, he might also not feel at ease with them. So, body language is a very important factor in communication.

I kept thinking about what I would do with the nut when I got home, I had no idea what could be done with it, but I took it out of my pocket and watched it carefully, looking at every detail it taught.

The nut was hard and resistant, it had the appearance of wood and a smell that I couldn't identify. My father, looking at me, was surprised by the nut in my hands. "My goodness, a nut! It is incredible that you have the opportunity to see it for real. This is a real treat, you must take good care of it." He said.

"What am I supposed to do with her?" I asked. "We can open it up so you can taste it. I loved eating nuts when I was a kid. I bet you will, too." My hand spoke, but it didn't seem like a good idea.

"We could add some sugar, or honey, or make bread." My dad said, looking at my mom. "You can't make bread with a single nut, we wouldn't taste it." Mom answered.

"I would like to keep it closed." I said, surprising everyone and making them look at me at the same time. "Aren't you curious to try it?" My mother said. "I have, but it is something so rare and unique, I would not like to destroy it as it happened with all trees. I would like to keep it, if you don't mind."

My parents looked at each other and my father sighed and said "I can build a platform for you to store it and display it however you want." I smiled and said it would be great and so we started to think where we would put it.

What is a Figure of speech?

A figure of speech is mainly based on signs that the context of the sentence relates to some other concept, event, or scene by suggesting that the listener or the reader understands the thought.

A figure of speech does not reflect the appropriate or literal meaning of any phrase, it provides the meaning in a humourous manner or in a sarcastic manner by introducing a cliche in the story.

Figures of speech are used in literature to give them more significance and to generate a response from the audience. Therefore, the reader it easier to comprehend and visualize the conditions that are being represented in the text.

Therefore, option B is appropriate.
