in the country of the blind what is the main reason that the people of the valley do not believe nunez when he tries to explain the world of sighted humans?
Answer:
Because they refused to think that an outside world existed that can help them, as they have lost the sense of their sight since fourteen generations.

Read the sentence from “Broken Chain.” The next day he spent his lawn-mowing money on a new shirt and, with a pocketknife, scooped the moons of dirt from under his fingernails. Which message does Gary Soto want readers to take away? Good hygiene keeps people healthy and happy. Everyday objects can have multiple uses. People will work to improve their appearance. Jobs can lead to positive and negative things.
Answer:
I think it's that people will work to improve their appearance
Explanation:
At first it's talking about how he spends his money to buy a new shirt, which is for appearance, and then talks about how he cleans his finger nails, which is to look clean (appearance)
The correct answer is People will work to improve their appearance.
At first it's discussing how he goes through his cash to purchase another shirt, which is for appearance, and afterward discusses how he cleans his finger nails, which is to look perfect (appearance).
Gary Soto's brief tale Broken Chain is about a little youngster's endeavors to dazzle a young lady he enjoys. The topic of appearance and the truth is the principle issue it this story and it is properly seen through the personality of Alfonso.
The wrecked chain was an issue for Alfonso on the grounds that now he didn't have his own bicycle for his date. In the end Ernie gave Alfonso his bicycle on the grounds that Sandra wasn't the young lady that dumped him so the siblings' contention was settled.

Answer:
I wander lonely as a cloud
Explanation:
Dear friend,
I just finished reading the poem I wander lonely as a cloud by William Wordsworth. I´m very much impressed by the clear message Wordsworth has for us mankind. Therefore, I decided to share my thoughts on the poem with you. I promise not to bother you with unnecessary details.
Instead I will focus on the title to explain the intention of this beautiful poem. Lonely is a keyword that Wordsworth uses to introduce himself in this lamentful state. But cloud points to an elevated feeling and at the same time links the author with nature itself. Now maybe I´m wrong with my personal interpretation but I sense that Wordsworth describes how important it is for us human beings to be connected with nature - his loneliness is absorbed by nature that proves to be his companion - because it is essential to human happiness.
I hope you will find the time to read it; if not, try to wander in order to wonder.

Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game."
The dining room to which Ivan conducted him was in many ways remarkable. There was a medieval magnificence about it; it suggested a baronial hall of feudal times with its oaken panels, its high ceiling, its vast refectory table where twoscore men could sit down to eat. About the hall were mounted heads of many animals—lions, tigers, elephants, moose, bears; larger or more perfect specimens Rainsford had never seen. At the great table the general was sitting, alone.

Answer:
The narrative point of view in this excerpt allows the reader to experience:
C. Rainsford's impression of the dining room.
Explanation:
Notice that the story is narrated from a third-person perspective. In this particular excerpt, the narrator is not at all focused on feelings. We do not know how the character, Rainsford, feels about the people or the place. What is being described is what he sees, which is a magnificent and rich dining room. There is a brief mention as to Rainsford never having seen such perfect mounted heads before, but that is all. The focus of the excerpt is on describing the dining room and how impressive it is.

what is the passive voice of we haven't checked your car yet
Answer:
the car has not been checked by us yet
The car has not been checked by us yet is the passive voice of we haven't checked your car yet.
What is passive voice?When a verb acts on the sentence's subject, it is said to be in the passive voice. For instance, the ball receives the action of the verb in "The ball was thrown by the pitcher," and was thrown is in the passive form.
Generally speaking, using the active voice strengthens, clarifies, and—you guessed it—makes your writing more dynamic. The verb in the sentence's subject performs the action of something that the subject is. The subject is affected by another person doing the verb in the passive voice.
Look at what happened and who was accountable for it to recognize passive voice. If the thing or person who is in charge of the actions is either left out or overlooked.
Thus, The car has not been checked by us yet.

So the " nasty words" is like arrows that is impossible to move from her body would mean that the words hurt her so bad that it felt as painful as getting arrows shot at her that is too impossible to get out.
