Read the excerpt below and answer the question."What is that gun firing for?" said Boxer.

"To celebrate our victory!" cried Squealer.

"What victory?" said Boxer. His knees were bleeding, he had lost a shoe and split his hoof, and a dozen pellets had lodged themselves in his hind leg.

"What victory, comrade? Have we not driven the enemy off our soil—the sacred soil of Animal Farm?"

"But they have destroyed the windmill. And we had worked on it for two years!"

"What matter? We will build another windmill. We will build six windmills if we feel like it. You do not appreciate, comrade, the mighty thing that we have done. The enemy was in occupation of this very ground that we stand upon. And now—thanks to the leadership of Comrade Napoleon—we have won every inch of it back again!"

"Then we have won back what we had before," said Boxer.

"That is our victory," said Squealer.

Most articles in a newspaper are intended to be _____; the writers report facts and present both sides of any issue.subjective
connotative
objective
denotative

Answers

Most articles in a newspaper are intended to be objective; the writers report facts and present both sides of any issue. Although this is not always the case. 

The writes are supposed to state the facts and all the sides, if there are any, to anything they report. It is not always the case, though, but journalism is not supposed about supposition or unclear thoughts, it is about reporting. So it cannot be mainly connotative either. And the more objectively it is done, the better. So, being denotative might help, but it is not the goal.

The correct answer is:

objective

Match each character in The Pilgrim’s Progress with the role the character plays in the story.Evangelist
Obstinate
Beelzebub
Pliable

the prince of devils; creates the Vanity Fair, which is full of temptations

stops Christian from pursuing his path and hates change

agrees to join Christian in his journey but easily changes his mind

shows the path of God to Christian

Answers

1. Evangelist - shows the path of God to Christian.
2. Obstinate - stops Christian from pursuing his path and hates change. 3. Beelzebub - the prince of devils; creates the Vanity Fair, which is full of temptations.
4. Pliable - agrees to join Christian in his journey but easily changes his mind.

These characters are all similar to how we use these words now. An evangelist is a devout Christian who encourages others to follow Christ. Someone who is described as obstinate is very stubborn and resistant to change.

Beelzebub is a character in many different stories and cultures and is always associated with evil, Satan, or the devil. It is also interesting that he creates the Vanity Fair which is full of temptations. This is similar to Vanity Fair magazine which highlights all of the latest fashion trends and temptations for women.

Pliable is a common adjective that people use to describe things that are easily molded or changed. A pliable person will be easily persuaded to do something that originally he/she was not interested in.

The character's match as the following text shows:

Evangelist - shows the path of God to Christian.

Obstinate - stops Christian from pursuing his path and hates change. Beelzebub - the prince of devils; creates the Vanity Fair, which is full of temptations.

Pliable - agrees to join Christian in his journey but easily changes his mind.

B. Knowing he would be late, she took a nap.
C. Realizing you are getting older is sobering.
D. Hiding in the tree fort he had built as a kid.

Answers

D. would be a sentence fragment because it dose not have a person or subject who is completing the action...My teacher explains it as " If some one just came up to you and said 'Hiding in the tree fort he had built as a kid.' would you understand them? You would be so confused but if it had a subject 'He was hiding in the tree fort he had built as a kid.' It would still be strange but you would understand what they were saying."
