What mood does the author create in this sentence from "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty"? "Pick it up, brother!" snapped a cop as the light changed, and Mitty hastily pulled on his gloves and lurched ahead. A. impatience B. anger C. doubt D. disappointment

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: I believe the answer is A: Impatience
The reasoning behind this is a few key descriptive words.
"Snapped," "hastily," and "lurched." These all tend to signify that someone is in a hurry, especially the "hastily" and "lurched."
"Snapped" could signify anger, as stated in choice B, but since the other two descriptive words don't coincide with anger, the logical choice would be A: Impatience.

What argument does the author anticipate and refute in this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence?"Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity."

Answer:

A) If the American colonists are unhappy with the king, they should appeal to Parliament.

Explanation:

Parliament enacted and passed taxes for the Empire all in all. The colonists were spoken to for all intents and purposes in Parliament despite the fact that they chose no specific agents.

They would be completely denied of their property.

The declaration of independence written by Stephen Lucas portrayed the colonists as victims of the drama. He stated also the separation of the Americans and the English people. In these lines given, the answer to this problem is A describing the Americans as the colonists and the British people as the colonies.

Answers

Explanation:

The theme is the message (usually stated in one single sentence) a literary work (like a poem) conveys about a subject. It is also the author's life lesson or moral of the poem or story to readers. Poems usually have more than one theme, but they are not explicitly stated so we, the readers, have to figure them out.

In the Cinderella Story, for example, one of the subject that it has is "Dreams" and one statement and message about that topic is "Dreams can come true."

-A theme is a poet’s message to readers through a poem.
-A theme is the imagery that evokes emotion in a poem
