For what reason does the author include the discovery and reading of the letter in alice in wonderalnd
Answer:
The letter is discovered and read, to create suspense in this part of the book by showing more evidence in court.
Explanation:
This letter creates suspense while reading, because when the rabbit receives it, the letter has no remittent nor receptor, with nothing written on the outside, even more; the letter wasn’t a letter but lines of verses with no meaning at all.

3. An omen of death
Explanation:
auto and add meh on msp flawlessflowersmile
In "The Bells," "jingling, tinkling" is not consonance, the positive degree adjective in the sentence provided is 'harsh,' and in "The Raven," a raven connotatively symbolizes an omen of death.
Explanation:The words "jingling, tinkling" in line 14 of "The Bells" are an example of repetition and assonance, but they are NOT an example of consonance. Repetition is the use of the same word or phrase multiple times to emphasize a point, while assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds. In contrast, consonance refers to the repetition of consonant sounds, but not necessarily at the end of words.
Among the given sentences, 'The whole coast was beaten by harsh winds.' uses an adjective in the positive degree. Words in the positive degree are used to describe something without making a comparison to something else, as opposed to the comparative degree ('harsher') or the superlative degree ('harshest').
The connotative meaning of the raven in Poe’s "The Raven" implies an omen of death. While a raven is literally a black bird, in literary terms, especially in the context of Poe's poem, it is often associated with ill-omens or death, rather than being a fickle friend.

“Hanging Fire”
by Audre Lorde
I am fourteen
and my skin has betrayed me
the boy I cannot live without
still sucks his thumb
in secret
how come my knees are
always so ashy
what if I die
before the morning comes
and momma’s in the bedroom
with the door closed.
I have to learn how to dance
in time for the next party
my room is too small for me
suppose I die before graduation
they will sing sad melodies
but finally
tell the truth about me
There is nothing I want to do
and too much
that has to be done
and momma’s in the bedroom
with the door closed.
Nobody even stops to think
about my side of it
I should have been on Math Team
my marks were better than his
why do I have to be
the one
wearing braces
I have nothing to wear tomorrow
will I live long enough
to grow up
and momma’s in the bedroom
with the door closed.

Which poetic techniques are illustrated in the opening lines “I am fourteen/and my skin has betrayed me/the boy I cannot live without/still sucks his thumb/in secret”?
A. alliteration and metaphor
B. allusion and alliteration
C. apostrophe and simile
D. personification and enjambment
The correct answer is D. Personification and enjambement
Explanation:
In poetry, there are different techniques poets usually use for stylistic purposes this includes the rhyme, the onomatopoeia, the alliteration, the simile, the personification, among others. In the case of personification, this technique occurs when objects, plants, animals or entities that are not humans are given human features or are represented as people. In the verses from the poem "Hanging Fire" by Audre Lorde this can be seen in "and my skin has betrayed me" because the skin is an inanimate object that has been given the action of betrayal which is somehow exclusive from people.
On the other hand, enjambment which is another poetry technique occurs when the verses do not end at the end of a complete idea, which means in poems with enjambement one idea is developed through multiple verses. This device can also be found in the poem by Audre Lorde as the idea "I am fourteen/and my skin has betrayed me" is divided into verses and the idea "the boy I cannot live without/still sucks his thumb/in secret" is divided into three verses. Therefore, in this poem, the techniques illustrated are personification and enjambement.

Which of the following is the best definition for prefix?
A) a device used to help one learn and remember new vocabulary terms
B) one or more syllables placed in front of a base, or root, word
C) the basic part of a word that is also the source of its essential meaning
D) one or more syllables placed at the end of a base, or root, word
The correct answer is D. One or more syllables placed at the end of a base, or root word
Explanation:
In the English language and many other languages, words are formed based on three different sections that include root words, prefixes, and suffixes. In the case of root words, these are basic words and the center of word-formation. On the other hand, suffixes and prefixes refer to one or more letters/syllables added to a root word, in this way, suffixes are those syllables or letters added after a root word and prefix those added before or at the front of a root word. For example, in the case of the word "preview" the root word is "view" that means see and the prefix is "pre" that means before. Considering this, a prefix is one or more syllables placed at the end of a base, or root word.

Consider these versions of The War of the Worlds.
Excerpt 1, from H. G. Wells's novel The War of the Worlds:
I think everyone expected to see a man emerge—possibly something a little unlike us terrestrial men, but in all essentials a man. I know I did. But, looking, I presently saw something stirring within the shadow: greyish billowy movements, one above another, and then two luminous disks—like eyes. Then something resembling a little grey snake, about the thickness of a walking stick, coiled up out of the writhing middle, and wriggled in the air towards me—and then another.
Excerpt 2, from Howard E. Koch's script for Orson Welles's radio adaptation:
PHILLIPS: Ladies and gentlemen, this is the most terrifying thing I have ever witnessed . . . Wait a minute! Someone's crawling out of the hollow top. Someone or . . . something. I can see peering out of that black hole two luminous disks . . . are they eyes? It might be a face. It might be . . .
(SHOUT OF AWE FROM THE CROWD)
PHILLIPS: Good heavens, something's wriggling out of the shadow like a gray snake. Now it's another one, and another. They look like tentacles to me.
Which statement best describes the difference between these versions?
The radio adaptation shares more factual information than the novel.
The radio adaptation shares more humorous insight than the novel.
The radio adaptation is more frenzied than the novel.
The radio adaptation is more cheerful than the novel.
The correct answer is C. The radio adaptation is more frenzied than the novel.
Explanation:
An adaptation or version mainly occurs when a literary work such as a novel or short story is transformed into a new material such as audio, film or similar. Considering the type of material of the original version (written form) and the type of material of the adaptation (audio or audiovisual version) differ greatly some of the content of the material might also change.
In the case of the versions of "The War of the Worlds" by H. G. Well the original version which is a novel presents an scene in which a new creature appears for doing this the author mainly uses some punctuation marks to create some suspense such as the dashes (—) and descriptive details such as "something resembling a little grey snake, about the thickness of a walking stick" in a text that flows uniformly without interruptions.
On the other hand, in the case of the radio adaptation the narrator relies on longer pauses and breaks represented by the ellipsis (...) and exclamatory expression such as "Wait a minute! " or "Good heavens" that create different tones and makes the version be more Frenzy or agitated as the reactions of the narrator are included along with multiple pauses which are not included in the first version. Thus, the statement that describes the difference between the versions is "The radio adaptation is more frenzied than the novel".

Read the following passage and answer the question. “Athena said, ‘It’s wrong, Telemachus, wrong to rove so far, so long from home, leaving your own holdings unprotected...’” What is the meaning of the word rove as it is used above? feast wander behave stay
the answer is B. wander
Answer: The meaning of the word 'rove' as used in this passage is wander.
Explanation: The word 'rove' has been used as a verb in this passage and its meaning is to travel long distances without knowing which is the destination. In that way, the meaning of the word 'rove' is closely related to the act of wandering. In this passage from The Odyssey, Athena disapproves Telemachus' idea of roving so far and tries to convince him to come back to his home in order to protect it from Penelope's suitors.

The word "old" in the phrase "the old man" is what part of speech?
Final answer:
In the phrase "the old man," "old" is an adjective, which is a part of speech used to describe or modify a noun, in this case indicating the man's age.
Explanation:
The word "old" in the phrase "the old man" functions as an adjective. An adjective is a part of speech that is used to describe or modify a noun, giving us more information about the noun. In our example, "old" provides a description to the noun "man," indicating the age of the man.
According to the poem referenced, adjectives are like a magic wand or bridal ring, in that they add characteristic qualities to nouns. Furthermore, our knowledge of parts of speech indicates that adjectives are words that modify nouns or pronouns, so "old" fits into this category perfectly. It's important to understand how an adjective functions, as it is a basic building block in the structure of English sentences.

Act 4 scene 2 Romeo And Juliet:

Sirrah, go hire me twenty cunning cooks.
second Servant: you shall have none ill, sir; for ill try if they can lick their fingers.

Second Servant: Marry sir, 'tis and ill cook that cannot lick his own fingers: therefore he that cannot lick his fingers goes not with me.
HOW DOES SHAKESPEARE'S USE OF COMIC RELIEF IMPACT T THIS SCENE?,
A comic relief refers to a humorous pause within a serious drama, most especially in a tragedy. This is used to relieve the audience from the serious atmosphere. In other words, it allows them to “breathe” from the intensity of the play. In the dialogue, Capulet asked the servant to hire cooks for the gala wedding reception but the servant joked instead, as mentioned, “You shall have none ill, sir; for I’ll try if they can lick their fingers.” In this line, the servant meant to have little fun but the joke can be considered an observation for what Capulet is doing who would not like being treated the way he is treating Juliet. Despite the seriousness of the play, Shakespeare was still able to add a little humor to hidden meanings.
