analyze tone and syntax "With flying fingers, he wove a rough carpet of weeds and branches, and with it, he covered the mouth of the pit. Then, wet with sweat and aching with tiredness, he crouched behind the stump of a lightning-charred tree. He knew his pursuer was coming; he heard the padding sound of feet on the soft earth, and the night breeze brought him the perfume of the general’s cigarette. It seemed to Rainsford that the general was coming with unusual swiftness; he was not feeling his way along, foot by foot. Rainsford, crouching there, could not see the general, nor could he see the pit. He lived a year in a minute." Pg. 72
Answer and Explanation:
The text shown above presents a suspense tone, as it narrates a moment of learning where Rainford could be found and killed by the general at any time. This suspense is evidenced by the syntactic structure that the author decided to present in the text.
This is because the syntax refers to the construction of sentences with the correct use of words that are positioned in a logical way to represent a feeling for the reader.
The syntax of the text above, can convey fear and apprehension, because it uses words that make the reader perceive the general approaching his prey more and more, making the text totally unpredictable and exciting.

how can education build good personality?
(good answer pls)
education builds a good personality because you are more intelligent and that makes you more likable and when you have more friends you are happy and a happy person almost always has a good personality.
Explanation:
(My ELA teach gave us this for an idea make it better tho)
Answer:
By learning more and becoming more educated you can help with the whole arrogance problem around today. . Everyone thinks they know what they do and in all actuality they don't. so if you get more education you can learn to solve more problems and can think critically. you also become more social while being with people for your education .
I think personally that school helps build you it not only teaches you how to become better but it also helps you learn how to react to people. sorry if im jumping around but honestly i can see how it would make you a better person but not necessarily with a good personality.
Explanation:
hope you get a good idea what i mean sorry
Many occupations have dress codes for employees. Write to convince business leaders that dress codes should or should not be required. Support your response with reasons and examples.
Answer: Introduction:
Several jobs require that employees follow a dress code. Part of it includes that a specific piece of clothing is worn at all times such as a logo that specifically represents the company. There can also be a list of clothing that are not allowed in the workplace such as shirts that have a picture on it that can represent or be targeted to a specific group that the company does not want to be associated with. A dress code exists for the benefit of the company and the workers. Customers expect to go to a business and receive the help that they came for. It is necessary to have a dress code because it shows how the workplace takes their tasks seriously and that their focus is towards the customers.
Opposition/Refutation:
Employees may say that dress codes are unfair to them. They believe that not having a dress code is an opportunity to express themselves and their style. An expectation of dress may cause employees to feel as if their style is being attacked, or deemed inappropriate. Employees may feel that a dress code creates personal expenses, as they have to buy new clothes. Also, they want to be comfortable while they work. However, the success of yourself and the business depends on the way you dress. If the business you work for has a dress code, it is respectful to abide by it. This could cause you to endanger yourself in having the job or not.
Conclusion:
Dress code has the ability to help a business reach success. The image of employees displays a sense of professionalism throughout the workplace. Clients know who is knowledgeable about the business when they see a professionally-dressed person.Modest dress is a sign of respect for others. Fellow workers and employees may feel uncomfortable approaching a person who is not dressed modestly. Oftentimes, a similar uniform is worn by all workers. This is a method for distinguishing workers from customers. Therefore, a potential customer is more open to approaching a professional, making for higher quality customer service. Oftentimes, a uniform is implemented rather than a dress code. A uniform acts as advertisement for the company. More advertising leads to more people becoming aware of the business, who are likely to spend their money there. A dress code that promotes business and professionalism should be implemented in the workplace. Overall, adherence to a professional dress code is crucial to the success of a business.
Reflection:
We chose to go with the dress code being a good choice because we felt that it is something that is essential to a business. If there is no dress code, then there is no organization which can result in a loss of production in a business. Oppositions would come from employees that feel that they have the right to choose what they can and cannot wear.

writing that examines, analyzes, and interprets a piece of literature or a general aspect of literature.
A. Author’s purpose.
B. Literary criticism.
C. Autobiography.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
I got it right
Choose one of the elements of literature, listed below. In the space below, write an essay of at least 500 words comparing and contrasting a literary element in "Sixteen" by Maureen Daly and "Through the Tunnel" by Doris Lessing. Elements of Literature tone theme setting character plot point of View conflict When you have finished proofreading your essay, submit it to one of your peers for peer review. Make sure you use the rubric in order to complete your evaluation.
Answer:
Throughout each story, the characters try to prove something to themselves or other people. In Maureen Daly's short story "Sixteen" the narrator is clearly trying to prove to the reader that she is smart and popular. A very clear example of this occurs at the beginning of the story when the narrator is describing herself. Daly writes, "I mean, I want you to understand from the beginning that I'm not really so dumb. I know what a girl should do and what she shouldn't. I get around." When she says, "I want you to understand," she is clearly directing the statement at us, the reader. As she goes on to say that she is not really that dumb, her message clearly becomes an attempt to convince us that she is smart. Finally, when she says, "I get around," it appears as though she is trying to tell the reader that she is popular. Combining what has just been learned from the narrator's statements, She is trying to prove to someone her ethos: that she is smart enough and popular enough to be telling us a story about a boy.

Explanation:

he first dish was supposed to be creamy tomato soup; however, it was being prepared astoundingly slow in a kitchen supposedly renowned for excellent food and service. Today of all days, the restaurant decided to work at a snail’s pace to create any entrée. By the time the soup came out, it was already cold. The dish had great potential with its tomato base, but it was executed very poorly. The soup was just bland. The second course was grilled salmon with steamed vegetables. Again, this unremarkable dish was served cold and was under seasoned. The dessert course was unimpressive and lacked flavor. Overall, the experience at Le Pleut proved to be disappointing because its courses lacked all of the components to make a great meal.
