Answer:
A) leads to Echo’s death and a curse upon his name from his spurned lover.
Explanation:
That was the answer on Commonlit.
Narcissus's proud nature (A) leads to Echo's death and a curse upon his name from a spurned lover.
Narcissus was a the hunter son of the goddess Liriope who was destined to be great but only if he did not "know himself". His name later became the origin of the word "narcissism", which translates to self-centered and proud nature in a person.
In Greek mythology, Narcissus was handsome but also knows his own beauty. This led him to reject people and even taunt them for being "unqualified" to be with him. One of those whose love he scorned was Echo, a nymph who he rejected bluntly. He also angered Nemesis, the goddess of revenge, who put a curse on him. This curse led to his infatuation with his own appearance, further leading to his deterioration and eventual death.The character of Narcissus was one who showed how one's pride in oneself can be destructive. And Narcissus learned his lesson the hard way. His proud nature led to the death of Echo, the nymph, and also brought a curse upon himself. Thus, the correct answer is option A.

As I opened my eyes the sun shone brightly. Water splashed over my feet and I jumped up, dizzy after being asleep. I looked around at my surroundings and saw that I was on a small beach. Confusion filled my mind. I had no idea how I got here. I began to walk up the beach towards the tree line. Something bright flew past my face. 'Ugh, bugs', I thought to myself. I walked into the forest and kept the beach in view, just in case I needed to go back. As I wandered, many small animals scurried around. Then, I saw a horse. I wasn't sure whether to approach it or leave. I didn't really get a chance to decide because a twig snapping brought it's attention towards me. However, when it looked up, a silver horn adorned the top of it's head. A unicorn. Were those actually real? I must be dreaming still right? That would explain so much. We stared at each other for a minute. Then two. Then it started making it's way towards me. I didn't really know what to do, so I just stood there, panicked, not knowing the creatures intentions. It stopped just about a foot in front of me and bowed its head. I bowed my own to it as well, confused. Out of the corner of my eye I saw the same bright bug from before sitting on a branch. Was it just a bug? I squinted my eyes to try and get a better look. It was a tiny person. It was a pixie. I was definitely dreaming, right? The unicorn walked past me and I thought it was just leaving. I thought wrong when it turned back to look at me and neighed. It whipped its tail against my arm, signaling for me to follow it. It hurt. Did that mean this was real? I turned back towards the branch, but the light was gone. I followed the unicorn back to the beach. It led me up the coast to a small dock. Tied to it was a beautiful small boat. I looked familiar to me, but I don't know why. The unicorn nudged me towards it. I stepped onto it and opened a storage chest. There was a compass, maps, and books. My books. The ones about fairies that I keep on my shelves. I looked up and sitting on the lid was the little pixie girl from earlier. She was smiling at me. "Is this real?", I asked her. She nodded enthusiastically. I smiled and stood. Is this the place from my stories? Is it actually real? I wanted to find out. The pixie sat on top of my shoulder and pointed in a direction. I may as well explore more while I'm here. I began to go in the direction she pointed me in, with the unicorn following.

Answers
Answer:
Ok
Explanation:
The man frames the end of the world as if it were a breakup, casually claiming, “it's just that things didn't work out.” His extraordinary calmness seems to come from the way he's accepted the reality of the situation. This also reaffirms that the end of the world will be gentle rather than intense and chaotic.

Fog by Carl Sandburg
"The fog comes

It sits looking
Over harbor ane city
on silent haunches
and then moves on"
"The love song of J. Alfred Prufrock by T.S. Eliot
The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes
The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the window-panes
Licked its tongue into the corners of the evening
Lingered upon the pools that stand in drains
Let fall upon its back the soot that falls from chimneys
Slipped by the terrace, made a sudden leap,
And seeing that it was a soft October night.
Curled once about the house and fell alseep."

Read the following excerpt from The Jungle Book "Mowgli's
Brothers" by Rudyard Kipling.
He loved better than anything else to go with Bagheera into the dark warm heart of the forest,
to sleep all through the drowsy day, and at night see how Bagheera did his killing. Bagheera
killed right and left as he felt hungry, and so did Mowgli—with one exception.
7. The pace and mood of this excerpt is best described as (1 point)
O slow and thoughtful.
O slow and satisfied.
O fast and exciting.
O fast and suspenseful.
Answers
Answer:
D but see below.
Explanation:
If all you knew about the Jungle Book was what Disney told you, you might never guess that this was part of Kipling's book.
It is certainly fast. So one of C or D is the answer. I might have picked C had the author of the question not left us hanging by not telling us what the one exception was.
Since we are not told (and we have to look it up), I think the answer is D. But don't bet against C.
By the way, the thing that Mowgli must never kill is cattle (which is shameful anyway). He must never kill cattle because that is how Bagheera bought his freedom -- by telling the wolf council about the cattle kill that they were welcome to if they left Mowgli alone.
Answer:
“Oh, thou art a man’s cub,” said the Black Panther, very tenderly; “and even as I returned to my jungle, so thou must go back to men at last—to the men who are thy brothers—if thou art not killed in the Council.”
“But why—but why should any wish to kill me?” said Mowgli.
“Look at me,” said Bagheera; and Mowgli looked at him steadily between the eyes. The big panther turned his head away in half a minute.
“That is why,” he said, shifting his paw on the leaves. “Not even I can look thee between the eyes, and I was born among men, and I love thee, Little Brother. The others they hate thee because their eyes cannot meet thine; because thou art wise; because thou hast pulled out thorns from their feet—because thou art a man.”

Explanation:
A sign language is a type of language in which people use their hands, faces, and bodies to communicate. While ASL is the main sign language used by deaf communities in the United States and parts of Canada, its use is not limited to that population. In fact, ASL is a valuable language for many hearing people to learn. One way learning American Sign Language is invaluable is because it makes communication possible for many different people. For instance, some people who can hear but cannot speak, or have difficulty speaking, find ASL very useful. And many hearing people who have friends or family members who are hearing impaired often learn ASL to better understand or be understood by their loved ones It's also uplifting to learn American Sign Language because it is a very rich, complex language. The shape, placement, and motion of the hands, as well as facial expressions and body movements all play an important part. They give the language beauty.
In the first two paragraphs, the author makes a polnt to try to convince you that learning ASL is worthwhile. Select the highlighted sentence that states the main polnt.
