Which sentence uses a prepositional phrase as an adverbial phrase?
Answer:
D. The bumpy road jangled the carriage that we drove around the lake.
Explanation:
The above sentence uses a prepositional phrase as an adverbial phrase. This is true because it's seen that the word "around" can be a preposition and an adverb.
The phrase "...around the lake" is the prepositional phrase that is modifying what is happening here, "the bumpy road jangled the carriage that we drove...". The prepositional phrase is used as an adverbial phrase because the phrase is modifying the verb "drove". The prepositional phrase acting as an adverbial phrase is giving the description of where the "driven carriage" is. This is true because adverbial phrases actually modify verbs, adjectives or even adverbs in a sentence.
Answer:
D: The bumpy road jangled the carriage that we drove around the lake.

How old is Elie when he observes a son kill his own father for bread?
Answer:
In chapter 7, the prisoners are packed tightly together into a train car heading towards Buchenwald, and Elie witnesses a son kill his father over a piece of bread. A few days into their journey to Buchenwald, the train stops in a German town, and a worker throws a piece of bread into one of the train cars. Elie recalls watching dozens of starving prisoners fight violently for the piece of bread. German spectators begin to gather and start throwing more pieces of bread into the wagons to watch the emaciated prisoners fight among each other to grab the bread.
Elie recalls seeing an old man inconspicuously grab a piece and put it into his mouth. Before the old man can swallow the bread, another younger man suddenly strikes him. The old man collapses and begins crying for his son to stop beating him and tells his son that he is willing to share the bread. Unfortunately, the old man's son beats his father to death and searches his body for more food. Shortly after killing his father, two prisoners beat the son to death.
This horrific, violent story reveals the fragility of human nature. The son's ruthless actions reveal that humans are willing to do anything to survive and meet their primitive needs. In the midst of extreme hunger, humans disregard relationships and social standards to satisfy themselves. This incident reveals that humans are debased beings, who are willing act savagely towards anyone in order to survive at all costs.

Read the excerpt from chapter 30 of The Awakening. "There are so many inquisitive people and institutions abounding" said Arobin, "that one is really forced as a matt of convenience these days to assume the virtue of an occupation if he has it not." Monsieur Ratignolle stared a lit and turned to ask Mademoiselle Reisz if she considered the symphony concerts up to the standard which had be set the previous winter. What does Monsieur Ratignolle's reaction to Arobin's remark reveal about the difference in the men's characters? Monsieur Ratignolle is a married man who loves his wife deeply, while Arobin cannot fathom such devotion. Monsieur Ratignolle turns from the conversation because he is envious of Arobin's carefree attitude. Monsieur Ratignolle does not have Arobin's sense of humor and is therefore deeply offended by him. Monsieur Ratignolle is a traditional family man, unable to understand Arobin's unconventional choices.
Answer:
Monsieur Ratignolle's reaction to Arobin's remark reveals:
D. Monsieur Ratignolle is a traditional family man, unable to understand Arobin's unconventional choices.
Explanation:
In Kate Chopin's "The Awakening", characters Monsieur Alphonse Ratignolle and Alcée Arobin seem to function as each other's foil. That is, they are each other's opposite, one seeming to enhance the qualities of the other precisely because of such difference.
Arobin is a womanizer - a Don Juan type. He has a more carefree way of viewing and facing life. As a matter of fact, he becomes the main character's - Edna - lover. On the other hand, Monsieur Ratignolle is a role model of character and faithfulness. He and his wife seem to represent the ideal married couple. Ratignolle is regarded by his community as an example of integrity.
With that in mind, we can easily choose letter D as the best option: Monsieur Ratignolle is a traditional family man, unable to understand Arobin's unconventional choices.
Answer:
it is D.

Read lines 45-59 of the book scary tales: What is Torrance's view about telling children scary stories? What is one counterargument that she provides?
Write the claim, counterclaim and text evidence
PLS HELP ME I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Answer:
Claim: Children need to be frightened. We all do. It’s an emotion that was given to all of us and it should be exercised. When you don’t exercise it, you lose your sense of fear.
Counterargument: A lot of people have told me I really shouldn’t tell children scary things.
Rebuttal: Well, children can frighten themselves without your help. When they’re alone in bed they hear things and they see things. So I just help them along.
Explanation:
It is often thought that children need to be frightened. However, what this argument fails to consider is that Torrence grew up listening to scary tales from her grandfather and therefore has adapted to fear. In the text, it says that Torrence was afraid of keyholes because her grandfather told her in the dark monsters would lock her there. This shows at some point the author herself changed in the way she thought about scary tales but only because someone else scared her. Although children can frighten themselves without scary tales it is of their own volition. This means that children, either way, will never lose their sense of fear as a personal experience. Scary tales teaches one to be more cautious.

Answer:
Pacing affects the mood of your story, helps develop ideas and themes, and allows your readers to connect to the characters and the events that surround them. While it might be easy to think that a fast pace will be most effective, the truth is that it depends on the story you're telling

What are the consequences of sin and how can one be redeemed according to Hawthorne ? How is this different from the Bible's view of sin and redemption ?
Answer:
According to Hawthorne, the wages of sin is the fiery lake in the life after just like in the Bible. It emphasizes more on hidden sin and its effects on the people involved. Dimmesdale practiced this ideology and would torture himself seeking redemption. The Bible warns sinner to confess their sins and reconcile with God in remorse.
Explanation:
The Bible would condemn Dimmesdale's approach to salvation as hypocritical and ignorant. Its books are most times figurative in their meaning and a literal understanding of its teachings can be misleading as it is contradictory. Unlike Hawthorne, the Bible does not require a draw of blood or torture for redemption but a remorseful heart and verbal confession of sin.
