Thinking back to the hazy days of his youth, Rene recalled the odors of the barnyard and the scent of a spring in 1943. He remembered the dreamy pleasure he had gathered during his morning parade among chickens in the barnyard, scattering feed from a battered pail. Perhaps, he thought, that was because the clucking and scratching of the hens and their pullets seemed like evidence of gratitude. On the other hand, Nazi soldiers had recently occupied the nearby village of Reims. No doubt because he detested the Nazis, and no doubt because he associated swine with German soldiers, he now found slopping the hogs an odious task.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: From this passage, odious means? 
choices: tedious, hateful, difficult, or harmless.

ODIOUS means HATEFUL.

Rene detested the Nazis whom he likens to swine.

Detest is synonymous to hate. Swines are also known as hogs.

Because Rene associates the detestable Nazis with the hogs, he finds feeding the hogs a hateful task.

Odious is also defined as extremely unpleasant and repulsive. Thus, doing an odious task is hateful.

Final answer:

The number of words you can create from 'Santa's Sleigh' would depend on the spelling and language rules of English, and given that several letters appear more than once in 'Santa's Sleigh', there are a large number of possible words. Counting them successfully would require a comprehensive dictionary.

Explanation:

The question asks us to determine how many words can be formed from the letters in 'Santa's Sleigh'. This is a complex task usually performed in combinatorics, a topic in Mathematics, but in this case, we'll approach it from a vocabulary and spelling perspective, which falls under English. In this case, we must consider all possible single-letter, two-letter, three-letter, and so on combinations of these letters. However, the actual count isn't as straightforward as it would seem due to language and spelling rules. For instance, 'a', 'an', 'as', and 'at' are all valid words.

Note that 's', 'l', 'e', 'a', 'g', 'h' can be used twice as they appear twice in 'Santa's Sleigh'. Words should be real English words and letters should be used in correct spellings. So the actual number is not easily determined and would require a comprehensive English dictionary, because the possible combinations are immense.
