Yes, letter B is the correct answer.

And for some complementation purpose: Personification (which is the personal nature or human characteristics attribution to a nonhuman living being, or even object) is very useful to 'explain' or just illustrate certain phenomena that could otherwise be too complicated if literally explained.

That's why it's so much used when educating children when they're still too young to understand certain things. Or in fables, which were generally born in times when there were many things in nature not comprehended by human knowledge.

But to-morrow I die, and to-day I would unburden my soul. My immediate purpose is to place before the world, plainly, succinctly, and without comment, a series of mere household events. In their consequences, these events have terrified—have tortured—have destroyed me."a) slow b)fast c)fast and slow d)average

Answers

The correct answer is A. Slow

Explanation:

The pace refers to the rhythm of a text or how fast or slow the text flows or the events in a narrative are told, this is usually linked to how many words the writer uses to explain one action and how fast the reader is informed of these actions, which is determined by the use of phrases and punctuation, as punctuation  marks introduce pauses which implies the more punctuation marks a text includes the slower the narrative is and therefore the slower the pace is. Considering this, this passage has a slow pace as multiple punctuation marks are included such as dashes, periods and commas, which creates multiple pauses for the reader and therefore the actions are explained ed slowly, also multiple phrases are used to explain few actions which support the idea of a slow pace in this passage.

Answer:

It’s fast

Took the test and slow is wrong

I need help with question one revolving oedipus , will give brainlest and a bunch of points

Answers

Oedipus will succeed Polubus as king, according to the news relayed by the messenger. He's happy that he didn't kill the man he thought was his father, but sad that the man is dead.

Why is Jocasta pleased by this information?

Oedipus still worries that the oracle meant for him to marry his mother because she knows this will make him glad that he didn't kill him. In the scene you are portraying, Oedipus is conversing with Jocasta, who is his better half and furthermore his mom (in spite of the fact that they are both uninformed about this reality). Oedipus is concerned that the prediction he heard, that he would marry his mother and kill his father, might have come true.

On the other hand, Jocasta is attempting to pacify Oedipus and persuade him that the prophecy is false. She tells him about an oracle she and her husband received prior to the birth of their son, which predicted that when he grew up, he would kill his father and marry his mother. Nonetheless, she then makes sense of that the prophet's prescience didn't work out as expected, as they deserted their child on a mountainside to kick the bucket and he was always unable to satisfy the prediction.

Answers

"Choosing a video game is hard there are so many for sale" is a fused sentence because the two halves are talking about explicitly different things that still have some connection. It would be better to put "because" between "hard" and "there". 

Answer: D) Choosing a video game is hard there are so many for sale.

Explanation: a fused sentence is a type of sentence in which two independent clauses are run together without an appropriate conjunction or mark of punctuation between them, such as a semicolon or a period. From the given options, the one that is an example of a fused sentence is the corresponding to option D, where we have two independent clauses joined without any punctuation between them: "Choosing a video game is hard" and "there are so many for sale."
