Consider these versions of The War of the Worlds.
Excerpt 1, from H. G. Wells's novel The War of the Worlds:
The common round the sand pits was dotted with people, standing like myself in a half-fascinated terror, staring at these creatures, or rather at the heaped gravel at the edge of the pit in which they lay. And then, with a renewed horror, I saw a round, black object bobbing up and down on the edge of the pit. It was the head of the shopman who had fallen in, but showing as a little black object against the hot western sun. Now he got his shoulder and knee up, and again he seemed to slip back until only his head was visible. Suddenly he vanished, and I could have fancied a faint shriek had reached me.
Excerpt 2, from Howard E. Koch's script for Orson Welles's radio adaptation:
PHILLIPS: Ladies and gentlemen, you've just heard Mr. Wilmuth, owner of the farm where this thing has fallen. I wish I could convey the atmosphere . . . the background of this . . . fantastic scene. Hundreds of cars are parked in a field in back of us. Police are trying to rope off the roadway leading to the farm. But it's no use. They're breaking right through. Cars' headlights throw an enormous spot on the pit where the object's half buried. Some of the more daring souls are now venturing near the edge. Their silhouettes stand out against the metal sheen.
Which statement best describes the similarity between these versions?
Both versions impart an urgent tone through a resident’s words.
Both versions impart setting details through colorful description.
Both versions explain the background of a scientific phenomenon.
Both versions use characterization to show the locals' intelligence.
Answer:
The statement which best describes the similarity between these versions is:
B. Both versions impart setting details through colorful description.
Explanation:
H. G. Wells was an English author (1866-1946) who wrote the famous novel "War of the Worlds," in which martians invade the Earth. As we know, the novel was adapted and broadcast via radio in 1938 to sound as if it were news bulletins. Allegedly, some people panicked while listening to the radio, truly believing the planet was under attack. However, we now know it was not a generalized panic.
Both excerpts give a colorful, vivid description of the scene before the narrator's eyes. Word choice makes it possible for readers, in the first case, and listeners, in the second, to really see, hear, or even feel the same things as the narrator. With the first excerpt, we can see the person who fell into the pit trying to leave it, only to slip back and then be dragged by some mysterious creature. With the second passage, we can see the cars, the police, the headlights, and finally the shadows of the people who have approached the object that fell from the sky.
Answer: B
Explanation: Both versions impart setting details through colorful description.

The night ignites and I see myself stand firm to come to a firm decision, we’re in an endless stream of choices. I run and run, but don’t find a way through. A dark song plays inside my mind, it’s such a haunting melody. The sweet corrupting reality comes through like a vision of some sort and opens my mind. There is a choir of haunting voices tormenting my mind, I know I must execute a plan, but which? Do I breathe the name of my lover in my hour of need? And, taste the past if the flavor should remind me of my resentment? I run for after no disaster, hope to never fall.
But, without him, my body feels like a tin can that has rust. Can you feed my love? It dances underneath the dark. Without my lover, my life feels like my world is nothing but a world of rust. Can you feed the yearning within me? Because without him I feel that beneath the skies so blue there is no purpose in life, everything is tattered and fallen apart. Don’t walk away, don’t walk away when my world is burning, don’t dare call me mad for I’m not mad; just give me some time to recover from my wounds. For everything dies, the fire and the human soul must die at some point.
Explination: This paragraph disguised in beautiful imagery is very personal. It’s about the time my bf wanted to take a break from our relationship. However, he repented and came back.
At the pit of night I took a firm decision, a stand to come to a decision. There are endless options of what I could have done. Forgive, not forgive or me leave and let him have his break. But, no matter how much I ran in this life I just couldn’t make up my mind. The “dark song” represents resentment. The “choir of haunting voices” is frustration, and I know I must make a decision, but which?
Later, in the 2nd paragraph I state “But, without him, my body feels like a tin can that has rust” meaning that my whole soul is burdened, time stops when he’s not with me, I’m not the same anymore. Now, speaking to the audience I say: “Can you feed my love?” as in: “Is there someone out there who can make me feel the same as this man made me feel?“. Later on I add: “Don’t dare call me mad for I’m not mad; just give me some time to recover from my wounds. For everything dies, the fire and the human soul must die at some point.” Mad here states to the state of being angry. My resolution to the problem is to give myself some time to heal my wounds for just as resentment dies so does fire and the human soul.

Based on what Odysseus says in the passage, what
has he learned?
- Humans can become like gods.
Humans are under the gods' control.
Humans can change from beggars to soldiers.
Answer:
Humans are under the gods' control.
Explanation:
Hello. You have not shown the excerpt to which the question refers and this makes it impossible for it to be answered.
However, when searching for your question on the internet, I could find another question just like yours, which showed the excerpt in which Odysseus informed how the goddess Athena turned him into a beggar after he returned to his island, but that she can transform it into a noble again, when appropriate. In this excerpt, he asserts that the gods have the ability not only to disguise men, but to humiliate and exalt them as well. This shows the reader how the gods are able to control human beings and use them in whatever way they see fit.
It is important to point out that Odysseus is a character in "Odyssey", a book written by Hoomer, which tells the story of how the king of Itáca, Odysseus, managed to return home after spending 20 years abroad.
Answer:
Humans are under the gods' control.
Explanation:
In Romeo and Juliet, if Romeo were Paris and not a Montague, would Juliet still love him? Why or why not? How big a part does "forbidden love" play in their attraction? How can you tell? Answer in at least three complete sentences
Answer and Explanation:
Juliet would still love Romeo, regardless of his last name and the family he belongs to. We can see this, because Juliet herself claims that the name Romeo is meaningless to her, because with any name he would still be the Romeo she fell in love with. Juliet claims this soon after learning that Romeo is a Montague, when she was already in love. The role of "forbidden love" in Juliet's attraction to Romeo is small, as Juliet falls in love with Romeo before learning that their family were enemies and would never allow them to be together. You may know this from the speech Juliet makes on her bedroom balcony when she declares her love for Romeo.
It is important to remember that "Romeo and Juliet" is a play written by Shakespeare. In this story, we get to know the tragic romance lived by Romeo and Juliet and learn how petty intrigues can have horrible results.

Explain the structure and language of the two love poems”To my dear and loving husband” and “A letter to her husband”
and how the lyrical language allowed the poet to describe
their sexuality a in a way that was never
discussed in their culture. Your answer should be at least 100 words.
Answer:
"To My Dear and Loving Husband" is a poem by the Colonial American poet Anne Bradstreet. The poem was first published in 1678, as part of Bradstreet's posthumous collection Several Poems. Bradstreet was the first poet—and the first woman—in colonial America to write and publish a book of poems. The poem is autobiographical and describes the passionate love between the speaker and her husband. The speaker describes that love as pure and redemptive. The poem thus implicitly argues against some religious poets who describe love as a sinful or unholy act.

in what way do you think overseas commitment " influence the rise and fall of nations in Europe
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
The way I think overseas commitment influenced the rise and fall of nations in Europe is the following.
Powerful European nations started to navigate the oceans since the so-called Age of Exploration. Prince Henry of Portugal was one of the first to build a powerful navy to explore and conquer in the name of his nation. Other European monarchies followed through, as was the case of Spain, France, and Great Britain.
They got inspiration from the "Three Gs" that are often used to summarize the motivation for European exploration are Gold, God, and Glory.
The age of exploration had European nations more power due to the discovery of new territories and the colonization of those territories. They discovered new lands where raw materials and natural resources abounded. So the three "G's" that motivated that explorations were Gold, the monarchy knew that many territories had plenty of gold and the crowns wanted that god to increase their wealthiness. God, they tough that they had to evangelize the natives Indians of that far lands to make them Christians. Ang Glory, to get supremacy over other European nations that were also competing for new territories.
