Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

First blank: pseudonym.

Second blank: Ellis.

The Victorian age (under the reign of Queen Victoria, through almost all of the 19th century) was a historical period in Britain characterized, for women, as being conservative in the sense that women were expected to remain at home and not participate in the sphere of politics or labor, instead focusing on morality and taking care of the family household.

For these reasons, the Brontë sisters, who were very prolific literary authors, chose different pseudonyms or pennames to publish their works. Charlotte chose as her pseudonym Currer Bell; Emily chose Ellis Bell; and Anne chose Acton Bell.

Answer 2
Answer: They wrote under a pseudonym - a fake name. The Bronte sisters wrote under Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell. Charlotte Bronte went by Currer Bell, Emily by Ellis, and Anne was Acton.

Answer:

The pamphlet drew attention to the cause of American Independence.

Explanation:

Thomas Paine (Thetford, Norfolk, England, 9 February 1737 - New York, June 8, 1809) was a British politician as well as a pamphleteer, revolutionary, inventor, intellectual and one of the Founding Fathers of the United States of America. He lived in England until he was 37, when he immigrated to the British colonies in America in time to participate in the American Revolution. His major contributions were the widely read Common Sense (1776), advocating American colonial independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain, and The American Crisis (1776-1783), a series of revolutionary pamphlets.

His pamphlet opened the minds of Americans, provoking the quest for independence.

I guess the pamphlet drew attention to the cause of American Independence. It is credited with sparking the American Revolution.

Answer: Gerund phrase: telling his mother. Noun use: object of the preposition.

In the given sentence we can see an example of a gerund phrase in the words "telling his mother" ("telling" is the gerund and "his mother" is a complement), this gerund phrase is acting as the object of the preposition "without" which is place just before it.
