Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

He wrung as much water out of the towel as he could before hanging it up.

When she heard the news, she wrung her hands in frustration.

Explanation:

As given in the question, the definitions of the two words "rung" and "wrung" are different. While "rung" is a noun, the word "wrung" is a verb, which clearly shows their difference easily.

Now, the correct use of the verb "wrung" is found in sentences 1 and 2. In sentence 1, the transitive verb is used to refer to the act of extracting, squeezing out the excess water from the towel. Sentence 2 refers to the act of inflicting pain in oneself, like "she wrung her hands in frustration".

Thus, the correct answers are

He wrung as much water out of the towel as he could before hanging it up.

When she heard the news, she wrung her hands in frustration.

based on this expert which statement is the most accurate assessment of churchill's use of rhetoric?

Answers

The correct answer is D. He uses pathos to appeal to the listeners' suspicion and fear of Germany.

Explanation

When a speaker uses Pathos in a speech he makes use of the emotions and empathy that causes his speech and charisma in the audience. Usually, these speeches are used by politicians or candidates to move large groups of people. In the fragment of the speech, Churchill refers to the characteristics of his enemy (German) as "there is no dirty trick he will not do" to arouse fear in the audience. Therefore, the correct answer is D. He uses pathos to appeal to the listeners' suspicion and fear of Germany.

I have been a nurse for twenty years. In that time, I have seen a great number of patients suffer because they did not have health insurance. One of the worst cases was a young mother of two who was diagnosed with early stage skin cancer. Because she could not afford treatment, the cancer spread from her skin to other parts of her body. By the time I saw her for the first time, the cancer had reached her brain, and she could no longer be helped. This sort of thing should not happen to anyone. A strong universal health care system could prevent instances like this from occurring.

I looked this question up and found it online. Even without the crossword puzzle, we can answer it because of the hint sentences. They are as follows:

1. I ________ pictures.

2. I ________ my grandfather.

3. I ________ exercises.

4. I ________ books.

Answer:

1. I draw pictures.

2. I help my grandfather.

3. I do exercises.

4. I read books.

Explanation:

For this question, we need to both unscramble the verbs and decide where they go.

If by looking at the scrambled letters you find it difficult to figure out what word they spell out, the best strategy is to read the sentences. They offer context. For example, suppose you couldn't figure out EARD. When you see "I _______ books," you will quickly realize that EARD spells READ because what we usually do with books is read them. The same works for the other sentences.

Dear friend.

I am writing this letter because I woke up missing you so much and I couldn't help but tell you how important you are, not only to me, but to everyone who loves you here in Nepal.

For this reason, I believe it is time for you to return to your land and the people who love you. You've been away for so long, I believe you're missing it too and want to see and live with your people.

Your family is growing, your country is growing and it would be a shame you weren't here to witness it all and live in the culture that is truly yours.

However, I don't want to pressure you into making this decision. I know that everything happens at the right time and at the right and appropriate time you will decide to go home. I hope this happens soon, as I really wanted to see you.

why did yama check the ability of five pandava brothers?​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Is this a story or sum

Yama Raj, also known as Yaksha, was the God of Death and ruler of hell. He was also the father of Yudhishthira. Yaksha, who appeared to Yudhishthira in the shape of a crane, questioned him on multiple occasions before sending him into exile to ensure his honesty and righteousness.

What did Yama do for Yudhishthira?

Yama exposed himself as Yudhishthira's father, blessed him, and resurrected his younger Pandava brothers after being moved by the rigid dedication to dharma and his responses to the riddles provided. Yaksha [Yama] said, "What foe is unbeatable? What conditions make a sickness incurable? What kind of guy is honorable and what kind is unworthy? "? Yudhishthira then said, "Anger is a formidable foe. Covetousness is a condition that cannot be cured.

Whoever seeks the welfare of all beings is noble, and whoever shows no pity is ignoble ". The mother of the monarch Vena, Sunita, is Yama's eldest daughter, according to the Brahma Purana. Some sources claim that Sobhavati, Chitragupta's wife, is Yama's child.

CORRECT THE ONE ERROR SWAN'S CAN BE HOSTILE

Answers

Answer: correct it to "Swans can be hostile."

Explanation:

There is no need for the punctuation mark in "Swans" since this would make it seem that you were saying "Swans is" instead of just "Swans". So instead of "Swan's" you should change it to "Swans".

The correct sentence is "Swans can be hostile." There is no need to punctuate "Swans" since doing so would give the impression that you are saying "Swans is" rather than just "Swans". So, you need to replace "Swan's" to "Swans" instead.

What are apostrophe s rules?

In languages that utilize the Latin alphabet and some other alphabets, the apostrophe serves as a punctuation mark and occasionally a diacritical mark.

Even if the word ends in s, a single noun can be made into the possessive case by adding the suffix "s." If the final letter is not an s, add's instead, otherwise add an apostrophe to make the possessive case of a plural noun.

Always keep in mind that the apostrophe never denotes a noun's plural form.

Therefore, the correct sentence is "Swans can be hostile."

Answer:

1. Hermia  → Lysander

2. Helena → Demetrius

3. Titania  → Oberon

Explanation:

The above is correct. I have been able to match each woman with her mate at the end of the play.

Lysander was mistaken to be Demetrius and was placed under Puck's spell which led him to fall in love with Helena. But eventually, the spell over Lysander was reversed and Lysander finally marries Hermia at the end.

Also, Demetrius and Helena ended up marrying each other. Demetrius later said that he wasn't in love with Hermia but with Helena.

Titania is the wife of Oberon.
