Read the excerpt from “The Snow-Queen.”

“Now I must fly to warmer countries,” said the Snow-queen. “I must go and powder my black kettles!” (This was what she called Mount Etna and Mount Vesuvius.) “It does the lemons and grapes good.”

And off she flew, and Kay sat alone in the great hall trying to do his puzzle.

He sat so still that you would have thought he was frozen.

Then it happened that little Gerda stepped into the hall. The biting cold winds became quiet as if they had fallen asleep when she appeared in the great, empty, freezing hall.

She caught sight of Kay; she recognised him, and ran and put her arms round his neck, crying, “Kay! dear little Kay! I have found you at last!”

But he sat quite still and cold. Then Gerda wept hot tears which fell on his neck and thawed his heart and swept away the bit of the looking-glass. He looked at her and then he burst into tears. He cried so much that the glass splinter swam out of his eye; then he knew her, and cried out, “Gerda! dear little Gerda! Where have you been so long? and where have I been?”

How does the protagonist move the plot forward in this excerpt?

Kay moves the plot forward by working on his puzzle.
Gerda moves the plot forward by entering the frozen hall.
Gerda moves the plot forward by freeing Kay with her tears.
The Snow-queen moves the plot forward by leaving Kay alone.

Answer:

Question is not completely stated

Explanation:

Write a letter to yourself like it is the first day of 8th grade. What advice would you give yourself? What would you change? Half a page.

Answers

If I was writing a letter to myself I would tell myself to ask more questions. I would know and understand a lot more if I did ask. I would probably be more organized and useful. (I’m just going to start naming things) Advice to give yourself- Study more- Read more- Be more organized- Make friends- What would you Change- I would listen more- Think smarter and not harder. Pick a couple of those and just go off them. Good luck btw

Hello, I heard you were starting 8th grade today. I also heard you were nervous and anxious, but don't worry, you'll do just fine.

There's some advice I want to give you before you continue the year.

First of, Complete your work in time. Don't wait till the deadline is due. You'll get behind on all of your assignments. It's best if you do it right away so you don't have to worry about anything else.

Second, Do your best to not miss a day of school. It's fine if you have a dentist appointment or you have a really bad fever, but don't miss a day of school because you want to. Who knows? The day you missed school your teacher already started on a new lesson that day that you don't know about. Or worse- you could have missed a test.

Third, make friends. Be friends with people who are positive and care about their schoolwork. Like they say, you are who you hang out with.

Fourth, always study days before the test. You don't want to come to school unprepared. Make a to-do list about things you need to do when you get home. That way everything is organized.

8th grade is one of the most important years of middle school. Its a year that's preparing you for highschool. And trust me when I say that highschool will be much worse. But everything will be okay if you do things smoothly.

Have a great year of 8th grade and make the most out of it!

With kind regards,

future you.

"Because a fire was in my head," (line 2)



"But something rustled on the floor" (line 11)

Answer:

B.  I will find out where she has gone (line 20)

Explanation:

"The Song of Wandering Aengus" is a poem written by William Buttler Yeats. The poem is about finding the true love. One day the poet goes into the woods to find peace, rather, he finds his true love which vanishes into the woods. The poet is now an old man and still trying to find the woman.

The line that signifies the theme of the poem, Love is more important than wealth, is line 20. In this line, the poet is still persistent in finding the woman who called out his name and vanished into the woods. This also means that the man is eager to seek the love than wealth.

Thus, option B is correct.

B. Having finished dinner, the dishes were washed in the sink.
C. After getting laid off, the newspaper want ads were a useful
resource.
D. All of the above.

Answers

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A dangling modifier is a word or phrase that modifies a word not clearly stated in the sentence. A modifier describes, clarifies, or gives more detail about a concept.

In A, opening the window modifies the evening air. Having finished dinner modifies the dishes that were washed in the sink.

C is the only one without a clear word not modified.

The sentence that includes the dangling modifier is - "After getting laid off, the newspaper want ads were a useful resource". Thus, option (C) is correct.

What is sentences?

Sentence refers to the group of the words arranged properly in the line and gives the sense or the meaning. The line is only said to be as a sentence when it gives meaning to the words.

A group of words that can stand alone and communicate a statement, inquiry, exclamation, or command. They normally have a subject and a predicate and typically have one main clause with one or more supporting clauses is a Sentence.

A dangling modifier is a phrase or term that modifies a word in the sentence that is not explicitly expressed. A modifier explains, clarifies, or adds extra information to an idea.

Therefore, it can be concluded that in option (C) there is no word being stated as explicitly or any unnecessary information is added. Hence, option (C) is correct.
