____ helps us understand when an action occurred.
Nouns
Verb tense
Verb agreement
Pronouns
Answer:
Verb tense
Explanation:
I think it is
Answer:
Verb tense
Explanation:
This is because it would not be a person, place, or thing (noun), it wouldn't be he/she/they (pronoun) it would not be verb agreement because that's talking about multiple verbs, but it is verb tense because that is about past, present, and future which is what the question is asking.

Read the following passage from Act I, scene ii of The Tempest, in which Prospero summons Caliban.
PROSPERO . . . Come on;
We'll visit Caliban my sIave, who never
YieIds us kind answer.
MIRANDA
'Tis a viIIain, sir,
I do not love to look on.
PROSPERO
But, as 'tis,
We cannot miss him: he does make our fire,
Fetch in our wood and serves in offices
That profit us. What, h0! sIave! CaIiban!
Thou earth, thou! speak.
CALIBAN
[Within] There's wood enough within.
PROSPERO
Come forth, I say! there's other business for thee:
Come, thou tortoise! when?
(. . .)
Thou poisonous slave, got by the devil himself
Upon thy wicked danm, come forth!
From the passage, identify words and phrases that refer to Caliban. Then, analyze how the choice of words shapes readers' first impression of Caliban and shows Prospero and Miranda's attitude toward him. Be sure to use details from the passage to support your analysis.
Answer:
Themes of Colonialism present in this passage:
Fatherhood
Caliban sees Prospero as a fatherly figure, if you come to think of it, Fathers colonize children in as much as they have power over them, over what they eat, what they learn, where they live and so forth.
"When thou cames first, thou strokeds me and madest much of me, wouldst give me water with berries in't, and teach me how to name the bigger light (....) and then I love thee" In this phrase we can see that Caliban was first treated with love by Prospero because he fed him (with water with berries, like a special treat) and taught him how to name the sun (the bigger light).
Territory
When Caliban grows up, he realizes that Prospero was not like a father, he becomes aware of the fact that Prospero is the colonizer that took what belong to Caliban (His island).
"The island's mine, by Sycorax my mother, which thou takest from me"
What Caliban means here is that the Island has always been his by right, because it belong to his mother, and he accuses Prospero of taking it from him. This is what happens with Colonizers, they take a land (and the people that live in it) although they have no right over it, but from their position of power they dominate the Colonized.
Slavery
Prospero is mad because he believes that Caliban is his slave and that he is not capable of doing good things, because he is less than a human being. "Abhorred slave, Which any print of goodness wilt not take, Being capable of all ill"
Language
Prosperos is also angry because he claims that it was hard work for him to teach Caliban to speak "Took pains to make thee speak, taught thee each hour one thing or other..."
This is interesting because colonized populations have a language of their own, so there is nothing generous about Colonizers teaching the colonized to speak. In fact, language is a tool that is used by Colonizers to control the Colonized.
Through language people can be controlled and their identity is also distorted when they use a language that is not their own. Caliban recognizes that Prospero knows how to name things (as we stated at the beginning) but notice how he calls Caliban in different parts of this extract you included: "Abhorred slave" , "Savage" , "a thing most brutish" "Thou vile race" In this way, we see that Caliban wants to get rid of the identity Prospero ascribed to him, but at the same time he can't fight against the power of the Colonizer (that is, Prospero)
Caliban's answer to this insults is: "You taught me language; and my profit on't is that I know how to curse. The red plague rid you for learning me language!" This means (literally) for the only thing that your language is helpful to me is to insult you (the red plague rid you! is an insult) But from the point of view of literary criticism, we see that Caliban is using the language that was originally used to control him, to fight against the control of Prospero. So, the same weapon that the Colonizer used to exert power over the Colonized, the latter uses it to fight against his control.

3 Colm, with dilated eyes, eagerly watched it making for the farther end of the lake. It meandered between tall bulrushes, its body black
and solid as stone against the graying water. Then as if it had sunk it was gone. The boy ran stealthily along the bank looking away from the
lake, pretending indifference. When he came opposite to where he had last seen the bird he stopped and peered through the sighing reeds
whose shadows streaked the water in a maze of black strokes. In front of him was a soddy islet guarded by the spears of sedge and
separated from the bank by a narrow channel of water. The water wasn't too deep-he could wade across with care.
How do the setting details in paragraph 3 help convey the theme of the story?
The spears of sedge around the islet imply that something must be protected.
The shadows of the reeds and the graying water make nature seem dark and dangerous.
The shallow water and isolation of the soddy islet implies that nature and animals should not be disturbed.
That a human could wade across the water shows the dominance of people over nature.

Answer:
The spears of sedge around the islet imply that something must be protected.
Explanation:
'The Wild Duck's Nest' is a short story written by Michael Mclaverty. The story is about a little boy, Colm, who ventures in a dense forest and finds a deserted nest of a duck, with an egg in it. The story exhibit the importance of nature and importance of preserving it.
The paragraph 3 of the story contrbutes to the theme of the story of preserving nature by enumerating how islet is protected by spears off sedge, so it is our responsibility to protect the nature.
Therefore, option A is correct.

from Aladdin and the Magic Lamp By Antoine Galland
Aladdin fell in love with the princess at first sight. He went home so changed that his mother was frightened. He told her he loved the Princess so deeply he could not live without her, and meant to ask her in marriage of her father. His mother, on hearing this, burst out laughing, but Aladdin at last prevailed upon her to go before the Sultan and carry his request. She fetched a napkin and laid in it the magic fruits from the enchanted garden, which sparkled and shone like the most beautiful jewels. She took these with her to please the Sultan, and set out, trusting in the lamp. The Grand Vizier and the lords of council had just gone in as she entered the hall and placed herself in front of the Sultan. He, however, took no notice of her. She went every day for a week, and stood in the same place. When the council broke up on the sixth day the Sultan said to his Vizier: "I see a certain woman in the audience-chamber every day carrying something in a napkin. Call her next time, that I may find out what she wants." Next day, at a sign from the vizier, she went up to the foot of the throne and remained kneeling until the Sultan said to her: "Rise, good woman, and tell me what you want." She hesitated, so the Sultan sent away all but the Vizier, and bade her speak freely, promising to forgive her beforehand for anything she might say. She then told him of her son's violent love for the Princess. "I prayed him to forget her," she said, "but in vain; he threatened to do some desperate deed if I refused to go and ask your Majesty for the hand of the Princess. Now I pray you to forgive not me alone, but my son Aladdin." The Sultan asked her kindly what she had in the napkin, whereupon she unfolded the jewels and presented them. He was thunderstruck, and turning to the vizier, said: "What sayest thou? Ought I not to bestow the Princess on one who values her at such a price?" The Vizier, who wanted her for his own son, begged the Sultan to withhold her for three months, in the course of which he hoped his son could contrive to make him a richer present.
Answer:
1.
A. Selfish
2.
A. Presents Aladdin's devotion to the princess

A student is writing the introduction to an opinion piece about school subjects drag into the box what the sentence should be include in the introduction to MOST CLEARLY state her opinion.
Answer and Explanation:
Hello. You didn't show the answer options, nor did you say what the students think about school subjects, which makes it impossible for me to answer your question efficiently. However, I will help you as much as I can, showing you how to recognize a sentence that should be placed in the introduction of an opinion article. I hope it helps.
The introduction of an article is the moment when the author must present his theme and make it very clear what he will talk about during the article. Literally, the main subject of the article is introduced in this section. In this case, the student should put in the introduction exactly his opinion about school subjects, showing the position he will defend in the rest of the article.
Example: Schools have failed to provide disciplines that are really important for the academic development of all students, who have spent time on irrelevant and worthless subjects.
