They describe the layout of the dining hall and the porter's location in it. They demonstrate Sindbad's respectability and his generosity toward the porter.
This question is incomplete because the passage is missing; here is the complete question:
Read the passage from "The Seven Voyages of Sindbad the Sailor.”
[The porter] followed the servant into a vast room, where a great company was seated round a table covered with all sorts of delicacies. In the place of honor sat a tall, grave man, whose long white beard gave him a venerable air. Behind his chair stood a crowd of attendants eager to minister to his wants. This was the famous Sindbad himself. The porter, more than ever alarmed at the sight of so much magnificence, tremblingly saluted the noble company. Sindbad, making a sign to him to approach, caused him to be seated at his right hand, and himself heaped choice morsels upon his plate, and poured out for him a draught of excellent wine, and presently, when the banquet drew to a close, spoke to him familiarly, asking his name and occupation.
How do the underlined words and phrases in the passage create meaning? A. They explain the porter's anxiety at meeting a well-known man.
B. They set up a threatening conflict between Sindbad and the porter.
C. They describe the layout of the dining hall and the porter's location in it.
D. They demonstrate Sindbad's respectability and his generosity toward the porter.
The answer to this question is D. They demonstrate Sindbad's respectability and his generosity toward the porter.
Explanation:
In the passage, the narrator describes a meeting between the porter and Sindbad who is a respectable man. The idea of respectability is emphasized by the underlined sections such as "a tall, grave man, whose long white beard gave him a venerable air" that shows this man is venerable, and therefore respectable or "This was the famous Sindbad himself" because the word famous emphasizes this quality. Additionally, underlined sections such as "heaped choice morsels upon his plate" or "spoke to him familiarly" show Sindbad is generous with the porter because he does not mind sharing his food and benefits with the porter and is kind when he speaks to him.

Which of the following pronouns can take either a
singular or a plural verb?
A) Anyone
B) Nobody
C) Several
D) Some
Answer:
The pronoun that can take either a singular or a plural verb is:
D) some.
Explanation:
The other pronouns are specific in their number. "Anyone" and "nobody" demand a singular verb, while "several" always accompanies a plural noun, needing a plural verb:
- Anyone knows how to make a cake from scratch?
- Nobody likes to be left alone.
- Several men are marching up the street.
On the other hand, "some" can accompany nouns that are either singular or plural. Therefore, the verb that follows can also be singular or plural:
- Some (of the books) are torn.
- Some (of the soup) has been eaten.
Therefore, our answer is letter D) some.

Notice that in this particular excerpt, the author has chosen to build suspense through Oskar's narration. He is attempting to recall something, but is unable to, leaving readers with the same doubts as him. We have no answer as to why his father's tuxedo was placed in such a strange place and manner.

What do you think the quilts represent in the story? Considering this line and the title of the story, how do you think the phrase "everyday use" relates to the idea of heritage? Give examples from the text to support your answer.
This question refers to the story "Everyday Use" by Alice Walker.
In this story, two sisters fight over some quilts that they want to inherit. However, each one of them has a different opinion about what to do with the quilts. While Maggie believes the quilts should be used as everyday items, Dee believes they should be displayed as an example of artistic ability.
The quilts are meant to represent the heritage of the sisters, and the way they each understand how to deal with their heritage and their culture. The phrase "everyday use" references the way heritage should be understood. The author is trying to convey the idea that heritage is not something to be displayed for others. Instead, it is something that should be experienced every single day, and should impact most aspects of our life.
In the case of Dee, this is not the case. While Dee admires the quilts, she does not feel inclined to experience her culture every day. In fact, she rejects many aspects of it, such as her name and her family's way of living. On the other hand, Maggie experiences her culture every day and is much more appreciative of the everyday experiences of her family.
Answer:
In Alice Walker’s short story “Everyday Use,” the handmade quilts are a means of staying connected to the family’s past and their ancestors. Dee wants use the quilts to decorate her home like one would do with historical artifacts. The quilts would not be put to “everyday use” in Dee’s home. However, for Mama and Maggie, the quilts represent the family’s history, experiences, and struggles across various generations. The quilts, made by family members, are reminders of cherished memories. These quilts were made from pieces of clothes the family members wore in their everyday life. The mother believes these lovingly made quilts should be of “everyday use” as her ancestors intended. She wants to give them to her younger daughter, Maggie, whom she believes will cherish the quilts, unlike Dee. As she tells Dee:
"God knows I been saving 'em for long enough with nobody using 'em. I hope she will!"

"Life without plan is possible and plausible"
plz I need it ASAP
Thanks in advance
Answer:
Check below for the explanation
Explanation:
Life without plan is possible and plausibleLife without plan is possible and plausible because the destiny of man lies in the hands of the almighty. Man can do little or nothing in shaping his own life and destiny since a superior force has already pre-planned it. We live our lives like a script that has already been written, whether or not it is planned does not determine our ending or how best it is lived. Therefore, it is possible to live our lives the way we live it without necessarily putting a plan in place.

Answer:
D. The gods must be given proper respect and honor.

According to the excerpt, Cyclops was furious with King Odyssey because he told him to fear the gods or avoid their wrath.
Cyclops believe they are stronger than the gods, "We Cyclops never blink at Zeus and Zeus's shield of storm and thunder, or any other blessed god we've got more force by far" and does not respect the gods or honor them because he(Cyclops) believes they are far superior.

Review the image. A pair of hands buckling a seatbelt over a road. What should be added to the image to best support the claim "Every driver should wear a seat belt”? animation that allows the seat belt to open and close animation of a cartoon driver giving a “thumbs up” a paragraph describing the history of seat belt laws a fact about seat belts preventing injuries in car accidents
Answer:
The answer is a fact about seat belts preventing injuries in car accidents
Explanation:
I just take a quiz on edg 2020.
"Every driver should wear a seat belt” The answer is a fact about seat belts preventing injuries in car accidents.
What message is given by this image?Regarding the meaning and message of the picture, a fact about seat belts preventing injuries in car accidents should be added inasmuch as factual information would lead people to believe deeply in seat belts as accessories that can indeed save people's lives and decrease the percentage of injuries in traffic accidents, instead of an animation that would tell the people something obvious to do or a paragraph that might get few views depending on the lenght of it.
Thus, option "D" is correct.

Read the passage from Animal Farm. It had come to his knowledge, he said, that a foolish and wicked rumour had been circulated at the time of Boxer's removal. Some of the animals had noticed that the van which took Boxer away was marked "Horse Slaughterer," and had actually jumped to the conclusion that Boxer was being sent to the knacker's. It was almost unbelievable, said Squealer, that any animal could be so stupid. Surely, he cried indignantly, whisking his tail and skipping from side to side, surely they knew their beloved Leader, Comrade Napoleon, better than that? But the explanation was really very simple. The van had previously been the property of the knacker, and had been bought by the veterinary surgeon, who had not yet painted the old name out. That was how the mistake had arisen. Which statement best expresses the theme of the passage? Workers need to organize for better health care. Dictatorships use lies to manipulate the populace. Sometimes, you cannot trust what you see with your own eyes. Relying on others is the only way to get through difficult times.
Answer:
