How does a meander form in a river?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

As the river erodes laterally, to the right side then the left side, it forms large bends, and then horseshoe-like loops called meanders . ... The force of the water erodes and undercuts the river bank on the outside of the bend where water flow has most energy due to decreased friction.

A rope of water twisted and whirled from a brass faucet, filling the tub. I sat in the cold water up to my neck and discovered that I could slide down the back of the tub and hit the bottom with a great splash. When my water party was interrupted, both the bathroom and I got a scrubbing.

—Barrio Boy,
Ernesto Galarza

Complete the sentences below.

The phrase "twisted and whirled" has a connotation.

The phrase "a great splash" has a connotation.

The phrase "water party" has a connotation.

Answers

Answer:

The phrase "twisted and whirled" has a positive connotation.

The phrase "a great splash" has a positive connotation.

The phrase "water party" has a positive connotation.

The phrase "got a scrubbing" has a negative connotation.

Explanation:

A "connotation" doesn't reflect the word's real meaning; rather, it invokes a specific emotion or feeling. There are two kinds of connotations: positive connotation and negative connotation. Positive connotations are related to positive feelings while negative connotations are related to negative feelings.

In the example excerpt above, the first three phrases show a positive connotation because they relate excitement and happiness on the person who was playing inside the tub. However, the last phrase shows a negative connotation because the person's happiness was interrupted by somebody who caught him playing inside the tub.

Answer:

a positive b negative c positive d negative

Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.Read this sentence from the text:Their broken faces spun stories in our minds.What is the main effect of the word faces in this sentence?A) It creates a feeling of despair.B) It creates the idea of something watching.C) It suggests the narrator has great fears.D) It implies a sense of history.
