Which two words best reveal the setting of the story?
adapted from The Underdogs
by Mariano Azuela
Some men on horseback rode up, shouting and sweating: two of them dismounted, while the other hung back to watch the horses.
"We want foga! Give us eggs, milk, beans, anything you've got! We're starving!"
The speaker wore chevrons on his arm, his companion red stripes on his shoulders.
"Whose place is this, old woman? Of course it's not empty. How about the light and that child there? Look here, confound it, we want to eat and
quick too. We're coming in."
"Tell me what they call this ranch, woman?" the sergeant asked.
"Limon," the woman replied curtly, carrying wood to the fire and fanning the coals.
A) food. B) light. C) ranch. D) limon. E)fire

Answers

Answer:

C) ranch.

D) limon

Explanation:

In literary terms, the setting of a story refers to the time and place where events in the story occur. Some words in the passage above gives the reader an idea of the place where the events in the story took place. The reference to the ranch which is a place where large animals like horses and cattle are reared helps the reader to know the setting of the story.

The response of the woman when asked the name of the ranch, which she answered as Limon also gives us the knowledge of the particular ranch where the plot was set.

Write a paragraph that analyzes how symbolism OR foreshadowing helps to develop a Modernist theme throughout the novella. (You should provide evidence from the first half of the novel and from the second half of the novel to show the theme developing).

Answers

Answer:

Foreshadowing helps give the reader insight into what will happen in the future. Foreshadowing is used early in the novella when Steinbeck foreshadows that Lennie will accidentally kill Curley's wife while trying to stroke her hair. Lennie seems to kill everything he pets: mice, a dog, and eventually Curley's wife. Since the act of petting is so innocent, we as the reader do not suspect Lennie of being capable of murder. In the beginning Lennie is depicted as being weak and not able to do very much, but as the story progresses, we see his true identity show through.

DAIRY OF ANNE FRANK!!!!!!!!!!!

Why does Anne say she only loves her father?

Answers

Answer:

Anne's relationship with her father is that of a "daddy's girl." She thinks he can do no wrong (unlike her mother) and is completely loyal to him. She gives her father all of the love she withholds from her mother

Explanation:

Anne's relationship with her father is that of a "daddy's girl." She thinks he can do no wrong (unlike her mother) and is completely loyal to him. Mr. Frank is the one person who can get through to Anne, no matter how she is feeling. She gives her father all of the love she withholds from her mother. Note, she is at an age where this is quite normal. Anne Frank has been analyzed over and over again for the things she wrote in her diary, and sometimes we tend to scrutinize far more than necessary. She was a teenage girl...... enough said.

Beth and Natalia sat on the floor playing a board game.
"What a bore!" exclaimed Natalia. "I wish we could go somewhere, or do something," she complained, gesturing toward the window with
dramatic flair.
Beth nonchalantly looked up from the playing board and stared at the lines of rainwater, flowing down the window pane of her bedroom.
"Well, I don't think that will happen anytime soon. You know what the weather forecast said. Thunderstorms and flooding are likely through
the afternoon and into the evening." replied Beth. She moved her game piece across the board.
Natalia stretched her arms up over her head, heaving a long sigh. Suddenly, she sprang to her feet. She shrieked briefly in surprise at the
overpowering boom that rattled the windows and shook the walls.
"Wow, Thor is really busy out there!" exclaimed Beth. "Now sit down and let's finish this game!"
In the last paragraph, Beth states that Thor, a Norse god, is really busy.
What does Beth's reference to Thor help the reader understand?
O 1. Beth is certain that the rain will not stop until dawn.
O 2. Beth is eager to play a game instead of listening to the storm.
O 3
Beth is concerned that the lightning will cause a power outage.
4. Beth is impressed by the strength and loudness of the thunder.

Answers

Answer:

4. Beth is impressed by the strength and loudness of the thunder.

Explanation:

In the given passage, Beth and Natalia are shown playing, with the rains falling which makes them stuck inside the house. Their eagerness to be outside and play is thwarted by the heavy rainfall.

But the main point of the passage and the question is the reference to Thor, the Norse god. The character of Thor is a myth, but ancient German mythology holds the belief that he is a mighty god, son of Odin, and from another world. Beth's reference to this god, commenting "Wow, Thor is really busy out there!" suggests she's impressed by the loud and strong nature of the rains and thunder.

Thus, the correct answer is option 4.

Information: Products and services usually follow a very predictable pattern of change over time, but every once in awhile a major shift happens. This could be because of global conflicts (like war in gas-rich areas) or false rumors (think toilet paper). Regardless of the reason, these abnormal shifts and they can really mess up traditional economic reporting. Directions: So far the idea of supply and demand shifts have been discussed in small terms, such as a grocery store having more bananas one week or a sale on a certain product. What happens, though, when a HUGE change happens to the supply or demand of a product? For example, every year there is usually an "it" toy for the holiday season, what type of dramatic (but temporary) shift in supply and demand do we see for that product? That is what you're going to research.For this project, you will need to come up with a specific example of a product or service that experienced a dramatic shift. You may need to talk to a grown-up or brainstorm with a classmate to think of something to research. I already gave the example of an "it" Holiday toy, so you could research a specific one from a specific year. Another general example would be gas prices. You'd want to find a time where there was a huge shift, not just the daily up and down of gas prices. Once you've come up with this topic, you will research it online and find out the following requirements for your project.Project Requirements:A specific supply and demand topic Explanation of what led to the shiftHow the change in price, supply, or demand affected the other two thingsHow long the abnormal shift lasted/What caused it to return to a normal?Project Types:Students can present their information in a variety of ways including an essay, PowerPoint-style presentation, poster board, video presentation, etc. Remember that this assignment is worth 100 points, so expect more than just answering the questions above on bullet points.
