in the monkey paw story how does the author create a feeling or suspense or tension in the story?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It is a stormy night.  There is a chess game going on and this in itself can be suspenseful or apprehensive.  Read the portion that describes the place and home that they live in.  The author sets the scene and the atmosphere around the characters.  

Explanation:

This story was written in the early twentieth century and it reads like a Victorian story.  There is old fashioned language used and at that time the amount of money they are talking about - was a lot of money.  Just reading the portions to set the scene give you a ghost story like presence.  Remember too, that the use of a mystical object (supernatural sense) makes you get goosebumps.

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is C: by creating a dark, stormy setting and introducing a mysterious, cursed object.

CHAPTER II—THE SHE-WOLF, an excerpt
From White Fang
By Jack London

Breakfast eaten and the slim camp-outfit lashed to the sled, the men turned their backs on the cheery fire and launched out into the darkness. At once began to rise the cries that were fiercely sad—cries that called through the darkness and cold to one another and answered back. Conversation ceased. Daylight came at nine o'clock. At midday the sky to the south warmed to rose-colour, and marked where the bulge of the earth intervened between the meridian sun and the northern world. But the rose-colour swiftly faded. The grey light of day that remained lasted until three o'clock, when it, too, faded, and the pall of the Arctic night descended upon the lone and silent land.

As darkness came on, the hunting-cries to right and left and rear drew closer—so close that more than once they sent surges of fear through the toiling dogs, throwing them into short-lived panics.

At the conclusion of one such panic, when he and Henry had got the dogs back in the traces, Bill said:

"I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone."

"They do get on the nerves horrible," Henry sympathized.

They spoke no more until camp was made.

Answer:

The grey light of day that remained lasted until three o'clock, when it, too, faded,...

As described in this paragraph, the main characters experience a difficult situation which is present by tension building throughout the paragraph. After mentioning of a tense situation, where fiercely sad cries were heard, the author mentiones a rising sun of a warm rose-colour which sounds as a hope arising, but immediately after that there is a mention of ill-omened grey light. Precisely this contrast between warm rose and grey colour is a represantation of a conflict which is experienced throughout the text.

I need some ideas. I need to write a short story about why people feel ashamed to be part of the LGBTQ+ community for english. Needs to be between 500-1000 words, or just give me idea on how I should start or something. Will mark brainliest.

Answers

Answer:

I cant give you the whole thing but an idea

Explanation:

People are ashamed to be part of the LGBTQ+ community because in some countries its against the law, its against some religions for example Christianity. Some people don't have accepting family and might be kicked out of the house for being part of the LGBTQ+ community

Answer:

fear of rejection, internalized homo/transphobia, and illegalization of homosexuality/transgenderism in certain countries are all good talking points

Explanation:

i'm sure that the third point is kind of obvious; if someone were to be openly lgbtq+ in a state were they aren't legally allowed to be proud, they could be imprisioned or killed.

though it may not be illegal worldwide, that doesn't mean that everyone who lives somewhere where it's legal to be lgbtq+ is accepting. people may be scared of getting rejected upon coming out. this could be losing friendships/romantic partners, getting kicked out by one's family, or becoming ostracized by society.

when one is in an environment that teaches them that it isn't okay to be lgbtq+, they are not going to feel happy with themself upon the realization that they may be gay/trans. they may have been taught at a young age that lgbtq+ people are gross or wrong in someway, making them refuse to accept that not only they are lgbtq+, but that is an okay thing to be.

Hello. You did not enter the sentence that this question refers to, which makes it impossible for me to answer it accurately, but stop helping, I will show you the possible meanings that the word "cavalier" can have. Thus, you can reread the sentence where that word is inserted, replacing it with the meanings and seeing which of the meanings allows the sentence to make sense.

The word "cavalier" can take on the meaning of "knight," that is, a soldier who exercises his duties on a horse. In addition, you can refer to a man with courteous and charming behavior, just as you can refer to an arrogant, mannerless, ignorant and brute person.

We all add our personality to things. Think about your voice when you tell your mom that you “don’t want to do the dishes.” Your TONE is representative of your emotions and expresses your mood and in some cases, your beliefs.

The same is true of literature. The author’s TONE is the personality he/she adds to the text.

One day a monkey went to the nest of his Goose and found there an egg all yellow and glittering. When he took it up it was as heavy as lead and he was going to throw it away, because he thought a trick had been played upon him. But, on second thought, he took it home and soon found to his delight that it was an egg of pure gold. Every morning the same thing occurred, and he soon became rich by selling
his eggs. As he grew rich he grew greedy; and thinking to get at once all the gold the Goose could give, he killed it and opened it only to find nothing.

Which statement best describes the author's purpose?
O A. To inform readers
about ways to become a child star
OB. To entertain readers with true stories of talent auditions
O C. To persuade children to develop their talents
O D. To explain the steps necessary to enter a contest

Answers

Answer:

D. To explain the steps necessary to enter a contest

Explanation:

The purpose of the given text is to explain the steps necessary to enter a talent contest. It's written in an entertaining, enthusiastic way.

Option A is incorrect because it doesn't tell about multiple ways to become a child star. It focuses on one particular contest, which is just one of the ways.

Option B is incorrect because, despite being written in an entertaining way, the text doesn't contain stories of talent auditions.

Option C is incorrect because the text doesn't simply persuade children to develop their talents. There are many ways to do that without applying for a contest. Of course, they'll have to develop their talent if they want to apply, but the emphasis is not on that. The text tells us who can apply and explains all necessary steps. This is why option D is the correct one.
