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 food! 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 1

Answer:

C) Ranch  D) Limon

Explanation:

The question asks "which 2 words reveal the setting of the story?" If you're only allowed one answer, I would say option C) Ranch is the answer. If you are allowed two answers I would also say that D) Limon is correct. The story's setting is a ranch that is called "Limon." Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The two words that best reveal the setting of the story are ranch and limon.

What do you mean by setting of the story?

The setting of a story refers to the period and location the author choose. A setting might be a true time and place, or it can be a fictional universe and an unknown time.

The story is set at a ranch which is named as Limon. A ranch is a plot of land with a variety of buildings that is used mostly for ranching, which is the activity of rearing grazing animals like sheep and cattle.

Since, the story takes place at a ranch named Limon, these words reveal the setting of the story.

What are the adjective in this sentence: three riders rode the church bus Sunday. the kind, helpful policeman showed us where to park.

Answers

Answer:

Kind and helpful.

Explanation:

An adjective is one of the parts of speech in English language and it can be defined as a word that qualifies or describes a noun in a sentence. Some examples of an adjective are big, small, happy, tall, short, fat, rambunctious, etc.

In English language, there are three (3) forms of adjectives and these includes;

I. Positive adjectives: it is the simplest form of an adjective that expresses the quality of a physical object, person, place, etc., without comparison.

II. Comparative adjectives: it is used for comparing two things, person or place. Signal word such as more is used for comparison or the suffix "er" is added to the adjective.

III. Superlative adjectives: it is used to show that a person or thing has a greater degree of quality than two or more other persons or things. Thus, it is used for comparing three or more people, things, place, etc.

Hence, the adjectives in the aforementioned statement are kind and helpful because it qualifies or describes the quality of the policeman.

They watched the movie yesterday into past perfect form​

Answers

Answer:

After changing the sentence into the past perfect form, we have:

They had watched the movie (yesterday).

Explanation:

The past perfect tense is used to express actions that took place in the past before another action that also took place in the past. Take a look at the timeline below:

-----------------I -----------------I -----------------I-----------------I

              past perf.         s. past          s. present       future

The structure of the past perfect is: subject + had + verb (past participle). It is commonly used in sentences that also use the simple past, precisely because the past perfect expresses the action that took place first. For example:

- I had already called you twice when you finally showed up.

In the sentence we are changing here, I placed the adverb of time "yesterday" inside parentheses because it is usually employed with the simple past. However, depending on the context, it is possible for it to be used with the past perfect:

They had watched the movie (yesterday).

But it sounds better if we change "yesterday":

They had watched the movie the day before.

Both sentences would be correct.
