(B) the artificiality of the whole situation

(D) Jorgenson's lack of courage Jorgenson's rigid response to these provocations

(E) the lack of movie-star heroics in the scene

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is D)

Explanation:

On the 135th page, of the book, Jorgenson's is seen to be under siege.

When the flares were released at him, it is recorded that he lunged to the side, having been wounded, and sought protection from the heap of sandbags.

The narrator's description of Jorgenson's act was almost in derision and appears to mock at him.

Cheers!

c. the box is falling apart and there is never a consistent ritual.
d. Mr. Summer is proper and important.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is B)

Explanation:  

In the 7th paragraph, the writer makes the statement "There was a great deal of fussing to be done before Mr. Summers declared the lottery open."

Fussing here is ironic because in the second sentence of that paragraph, they were going to make up lists of people family heads, and family members, who were supposed to partake in the lottery.

Going by the rules of a lottery, names ought not to be made up. But to be collated as -s from the list of those who ought to partake in it. Going the normal route would have been the actually fussing. But they decided to take a shortcut.

I have found this question online. We are supposed to fill in the blanks with either the simple past tense or the past progressive tense.

Answer:

Last year I provided first aid for the first time when I was in Reading to visit a friend of mine. We were sitting in John's garden when we suddenly heard a squeal of tires and a bang. Then there was a lot of shouts and cries. I immediately knew what was going on. I rushed through the garden gate, and when I reached the car I saw two injured persons: The driver was sitting behind the steering wheel, and blood was running from a wound to his head; his wife was lying on the ground beside the open left-hand door. Some neighbors or passers-by helped her, so I opened the other door and carefully dragged him out of the car and put him in a side position. I was talking to him and trying to stop the blood with a paper hanky when the ambulance arrived.

Explanation:

The past progressive tense is used to emphasize an action that lasted for some time in the past. It uses the verb "to be" in its past form (was/were) and a main verb with -ing. The example below helps illustrate it:

- I was cooking lunch when my mother arrived.

The simple past tense is used to express action that happened at a specific time in the past. It is commonly used with expressions of time, such as "yesterday", "last year", "two days ago", etc.

Verbs in the simple past can be regular or irregular. To regular verbs, we simply add -d, -ed, or -ied to form the past. For example: work - worked; arrive - arrived; dance - danced; study - studied.

When it comes to irregular verbs, we must memorize the past form of each. For example: do - did; eat - ate; make - made; swim - swam; speak - spoke.

The sentence below is in the simple past:

- I tried to help the man, but he said he was alright.

I want to / too / two live in Japan.
which one is it

Answers

Answer:

to

Explanation:

two=number

to= direction toward a point, person, place,

too= compare

Answer:

I want to live in Japan.

Explanation:

Too is an adverb that can mean “excessively” or “also.” Just to be clear: two is pronounced the same as to and too, but it can't be used instead of either of them because it's a number.

To is to express motion in the direction of (a particular location).

Two is the number 2

Would you rather live in ignorance and be "happy" in this town or know the truth and live the real world? What would the ramifications be for both sides? Explain (it’s due april 21)

Answers

Answer:

Im just gonna give a short paragraph you can go off of:

In this world there are many people who live in complete ignorance to the harsh truths of this world. They get to live happier, not knowing the real struggles people go through. While they get to spend their time and energy fighting for "their rights to not wear a mask" people are dying, staving, and fighting for their lives because of the extra stress we've been put under due to the pandemic. Though one might argue every single person is ignorant about some issues, the difference is some people actually want to change that. yes, being ignorant about the struggles black and brown people have to face makes ignoring the news a little easier. Not knowing about what lgbtq+ people have to go through makes going to church easier. But it only adds to these people suffering. Not doing anything, ignoring them, pretending its not happening, is just as bad as going out and being the reason its a problem.

Write a letter to your headmaster in your school telling him about the causes of indiscipline in the school

Answers

Answer:

Dear Headmaster Willson,

I am writing this letter to inform you about the causes of indiscipline in our school.

The first cause of indiscipline is the lack of strict rules. In the past, there were many of them, and students were overwhelmed. But now the rules' lack makes students misbehave since they know that they will not be punished.

The second indiscipline cause is due to the low performance from professors. As they do not ask much from their students, the last ones do not give the best of themselves, so they do not assist to class, do not study, and do not hand in their homework on time.

Lastly, students are without their parent's supervision for the majority of the day. As a consequence, they do not do their chores or homework since there is no authority figure present in their lives.

I hope that the causes for indiscipline in our school can help you to improve our institution by finding strategies to solve them and make our school better.

Yours faithfully.

Tom Johnson.

Explanation:

In this letter, we tell the headmaster the indiscipline causes. The first thing that we have to do is address the letter to the headmaster. Secondly, we write an introduction where we describe the aim of the letter. In the following paragraphs, we proceed to explain in detail the causes of indiscipline in the school. Lastly, we have to write a closing paragraph and our signature.

As we are writing to the school's headmaster, we should use formal language. For example, we address the person by writing dear, we write yours faithfully/yours sincerely, and we write our full name at the end.
