What information were you able to gather about the characters featured in the passage? in roll of thunder hear my cry

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

“At first the rain had merely splotched the dust, which seemed to be rejoicing in its own resiliency and laughing at the heavy drops thudding against it; but eventually the dust was forced to surrender to the mastery of the rain and it churned into a fine red mud that oozed between our toes and slopped against our ankles as we marched miserably to and from school.” This is a paragraph that really stands out to me because it is so beautifully written. Summarizing the paragraph, The children are walking to school and it  has started raining. The rain is converting the dust in the air and the dirt on the ground into wet mud. The experience is more miserable when you find out the Logans are bare foot while walking too and from school.

What attitude does Nene display toward Nnaemeka's cultural upbringing? What words reveal this attitude?

Answers

Answer: An attitude of bewilderment. We can see this in the phrase: " I had always thought you Ibos were kindly disposed to other people.”

Explanation: When Nene is talking to her fiancée, she wonders why he is so discouraged and indecisive about telling his father about the marriage. Nnaemeka starts explaining that not all parents react happily when their son gets married to a person they didn't choose. The words " I had always thought you Ibos were kindly disposed to other people”, imply that she is bewildered by this revelation when she had thought that there would be no problem with accepting her into their family.

Explanation:

how can you tell if a verb is liking, transitive or intransitive? here's an example:
The brain receives nerve impulses from many different sensory organs, such as skin, eyes, and ears.
is this sentences verb transitive, intransitive or linking?
please give me a good example!!!

Answers

Answer:

You can tell by simple textures of the feature.

Answer:

your expletives answer is it's transitive it should be.

Explanation:

Objects

A verb may be followed by an object that completes the meaning of the verb. Two kinds of objects follow verbs: direct objects and indirect objects. To determine if a verb has a direct object, isolate the verb and make it into a question by placing whom? or what? after it. The answer—if there is one—is the direct object, as in the following examples:

Direct objectThe advertising executive drove a flashy red Porsche.Direct objectHer staff gave her a bouquet of flowers.

The second sentence above also contains an indirect object (her). An indirect object (which, like a direct object, is always a noun or pronoun) is, in a sense, the recipient of the direct object. To determine if a verb has an indirect object, isolate the verb and ask to whom?, to what?, for whom? or for what? after it. The answer is the indirect object.

Not all verbs are followed by objects, as in the following sentences:

The guest speaker rose from her chair to protest.After work, Randy usually jogs around the canal.Transitive and Intransitive Verbs

Verbs that take objects are known as transitive verbs. Verbs not followed by objects are called intransitive verbs.

Some verbs can be either transitive or intransitive, depending on the context, as in the following examples:

TransitiveI hope the Senators win the next game.The verb win has a direct object (the next game) and is therefore a transitive verb.IntransitiveDid we win?The verb win has no direct object and is therefore an intransitive verb.Subject Complements

In addition to transitive verbs and intransitive verbs, there are linking verbs. The word or phrase which follows a linking verb is called a subject complement (not an object).

The most common linking verb is be. Other linking verbs are become, seem, appear, feel, grow, look, smell, taste and sound, among others. Note that some of these can be linking verbs, transitive verbs or intransitive verbs, depending on how you use them, as in the following examples:

Linking verb with subject complementHe was a radiologist before he became a full-time yoga instructor.Linking verb with subject complementYour homemade chili smells delicious.Transitive verb with direct objectI can’t smell anything with this terrible cold.Intransitive verb with no objectThe interior of the new Buick smells strongly of fish.

Note that a subject complement can be either

Example Sentences

Format reminder: verb, object, propositional phrase, adverb

continue

We will continue the meeting after the break. (transitive)

The meeting continued after the break. (intransitive)

play

Three of the students play the guitar. (transitive)

The students will play outside today. (intransitive)

return

Javier returned the book to the library. (transitive)

The students returned to school after the winter break. (intransitive)

grow

I grow zucchini in my garden. (transitive)

My daughter is growing quickly. (intransitive)

If you are unsure about whether a verb is transitive or intransitive, you can check a dictionary.  Most dictionaries, such as the online version of Merriam Webster, indicate whether a verb, and each definition of the verb, is transitive or intransitive.  Whether a verb is transitive or intransitive may depend on whether the verb has multiple meanings.  Make sure to read through the examples provided in the dictionary, if available, to ensure that you are using the verb correctly.

In this excerpt, the author shows how terrible conditions can cause people to be unsympathetic to the pain of others. How does the memoir genre enable the author to achieve this purpose? He is able to include facts to support his story. He is able to remain objective about what is happening. He is able to share his observations about one event in depth. He is able to provide an in-depth look about why the woman is shouting.

Answers

Read the excerpt from chapter 2 of Night. And so an hour or two passed. Another scream jolted us. The woman had broken free of her bonds and was shouting louder than before: "Look at the fire! Look at the flames! Flames everywhere . . .” Once again, the young men bound and gagged her. When they actually struck her, people shouted their approval: "Keep her quiet! Make that madwoman shut up. She’s not the only one here . . .” She received several blows to the head, blows that could have been lethal. Her son was clinging desperately to her, not uttering a word. He was no longer crying.

Answer:

. He is able to share his observations about one event in depth

Explanation:

Given that A memoir is a biographical writing that consist of various memories about a real life person, instead of fiction. It is actually established on factual incident, written from the perception of the author.

Hence, with the memoir genre the author was able to show how terrible conditions can cause people to be unsympathetic to the pain of others, by providing the enormous details that are factual about the incident. He was able to give such extensive details through his observations about the event.

Therefore, the correct answer is "He is able to share his observations about one event in depth."

Answer:

C. He is able to share his observations about one event in depth.

The power that rules the entire country is referred to as the "government." It is a collection of people who work together to serve and protect the nation. The government is also responsible for keeping the country safe from outsiders.

Power is distributed differently in each of the three types of government: unitary, federal, and confederate.

Thomas Jefferson is an American-born politician who advocates for democracy. He was elected President of the United States in 1801 and served until 1809. He was America's founding father.

False.

Similes, by definition, are "a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind". They require the use of the word like or as to be considered similes and not metaphors, therefore this is an example of a simile. "His attitude is like a loaded gun" is a simile because his attitude is being compared to a loaded gun through the use of the word "like".
