"If you don't inform the landlord within thirty days." warned Carla, a longtime tenant, "you may never get your faucet fixed".

Answers

The question is incomplete and the full version can be found online.  

Answer:

This sentence is not punctuated correctly.  

Explanation:

The correct punctuation would be as follows:

"If you don't inform the landlord within thirty days," warned Carla, a longtime tenant, "you may never get your faucet fixed."

The period mark that follows the word "days" should be a comma, because the if clause is at the beginning of the sentence, meaning that it's a conditional Sentence.

The last period mark should be placed inside the quotation mark, not outside because commas and periods that are part of the overall sentence must always go inside the quotation marks, even if they are not part of the original quotation.

When you choose a college to attend, you should spend sufficient time learning about the programs offered there.

They both made sense to me but I think he was humiliated because he was confident about continuing to hunt them even though he was warned.

The dream in lines 11-20 is a miniature allegory that has several analogies to the world in which the boys live. the "angel who had a bright key /and … open'd the coffins and set them all free" (line 13-14) represents __________.

Answers

Answer:

A messenger from God who sets the boys free with the key of death and blissful life in heaven.

Explanation:

William Blake's poem "The Chimney Sweeper" from his "Songs of Innocence" talks about the issue of child labor. The main focus of the poem is a young chimney sweeper who had a dream about an angel and how that gave him the confidence to continue his 'work'.

The lines "And by came an Angel who had a bright key, And he opened the coffins & set them all free;" are from the 4th stanza. The young chimney sweeper, Tom, had seen an angel in his dream. And seeing that the angel brought a key to "set them all free" would help Tom happily continue working despite the gravity of being a chimney sweeper.

The angel's appearance is significant for it represents a messenger from God who would set the boys free and give them a blissful life in heaven.

What inference can be drawn based on this excerpt from Friedan's "The Problem That Has No Name"? Men did not like for their wives to be intelligent. The dormitories built by the colleges often remained empty. Women were happy to drop out of school and stay at home. Men did not sacrifice their education for marriage as women did.

Answers

Answer: Women were happy to drop out of school and stay at home.

Explanation:

The excerpt talks about women in the fifties and their attitude towards marriage and higher education. In those times, there was a very high emphasis on marriage which is why most women (60%) were happy to drop out of college to get married.

Some dropped out because they didn't think that being too educated would be good for their marriage chances and even the ones that pursued further education, still stayed with their husbands.

Describe the killing of the sow. What are some words used to describe how the sow is feeling? The boys? What do the hunters do with her body? Her head? Why?

Answers

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there is enough information to find the right answer.

Answer:

In Lord of the Flies, by William Golding, Jack and his new tribe go on a savage frenzy to hunt and kill a sow. They go after a bunch of piglets and kill one of them, after chasing it through the forest. Jack is the one that leads the hunt.

Explanation:

While the words used to describe what the sow must be feeling are those of terror and exhaustion, such as frantic, terror, terrified, and collapsed, the ones used to describe what the boys feel are words of excitement and rush, such as rushed, fiercely and excited.

After the killing, the boys sharpen a stick at both ends, placing one end to stick into the ground and the other to stick into the head of the killed pig. This is how they leave the head as an offering or gift for what they call "the beast". The body of the sow they use to make a pig roast.
