In the story Little Women, one family brings breakfast to another on Christmas morning. Read this passage and then answer the question that follows:
Mrs. March gave the mother tea and gruel, and comforted her with promises of help, while she dressed the little baby as tenderly as if it had been her own.

b
Mrs. March and her girls cared about giving help to the mother and her children.
c

d
The woman ate for the first time in many weeks and began to feel better.
Answer:
b. Mrs. March and her girls cared about giving help to the mother and her children.
Explanation:
a. is not the right answer. While it is said that their English was “funny” and “broken”, it doesn’t mean they made noises like infants
b. is the right answer. We can see Mrs. March took care of the mother and the baby, while her daughters were helping around the table and with other children. Through this, we can conclude Mrs. March and her girls were caring about this family and their wellbeing and wanted to do all to help them and make their Christmas as beautiful as possible.
c. is not the right answer. The passage said they “fed them like so many hungry birds”, not that March gamily saw them be like the birds.
d. is not the right answer. Mrs. March did comfort the mother with tea and gruel, but it is not said that she didn’t ear for a long time.

Wild animals as viewed from a mountain camp—Camille Grant, October 2011
Through my binoculars, I viewed a group of wild animals in action. A pride of lions was sleeping when a small, yellow bus pulled up beside them. Tourists on a safari were packed into the bus like sardines in a can. Armed with cameras, they invaded the lions' territory, hoping to capture the perfect photograph. The crowd leaned out the windows, hooting and hollering, until the lions awoke. When the lions moved away, the bus rolled after them, relentlessly stalking the pride. One of the lions turned and roared to protect the young. This was greeted with cheers and a celebratory honk of the bus horn. The curious visitors observed the lions' routine for an hour before moving on. Leaving a cloud of dust, the bus headed away, taking the wild animals off to disturb someone else's home.

A.for
B.to
C.on
D.with
Answer:
B. to
It never occurred to me to ask him for proof of identity.
Explanation:
To occur to (someone) is a phrasal verb that means to come into someone's mind.
Phrasal verbs are verbs that consist of the main verb and an adverb or a preposition, or both. Usually, we can't determine their meaning just based on what these words mean individually. For example, the verb to occur means to happen, while to has many meanings and can function as a preposition, adverb, and the infinitive marker. This knowledge doesn't help us determine what the phrasal verb to occur to means, though.

Explanation:
When a sentence consists of two or more independent clauses, they need to be properly connected. One of the ways to connect two independent clauses is to use the semicolon. The semicolon is used when the clauses are closely related to each other, usually with one of them explaining the other. This is the case in sentence A.
Sentence B is a complex sentence. It consists of one independent and one subordinate clause connected by a comma. There is no semicolon in this sentence.
Sentence C is the second closest to being correct. What's wrong, though, is that these two clauses aren't closely related to each other.
Sentence D also a complex sentence, and the use of the semicolon here is incorrect, because an independent and subordinate clause can't be connected to each other by a semicolon.
What effect does repetition have on Anthony's
speech
☆.｡.:* hello there ｡.:*☆
the answer is down below
☆✼★━━━━━━━━━━━━★✼☆☆✼★━━━━━━━━━━━━★☆｡
Answer:
It is delivered to a crowd with the specific purpose of turning them to Antony's point of view. One of the reasons the speech is so rhetorically effective is Antony's clever use of repetition, repeating the phrase ''Brutus is an honorable man'' in order to imply the exact opposite meaning.
Explanation:
This repetition of the phrase, 'Brutus is an honourable man' is a clever rhetorical device. Antony is being wholly sarcastic when he says it. This has a cumulative impact on the crowd, as they listen to Antony demolishing all of Brutus's arguments. What Antony does, in effect, is to turn Brutus's own words against him.

Water is the least common mode of transportation in the US.
We can arrive at this answer because:
Road transport is the most common within the US. That's because the country has invested in railroads and roads that cross the country. In addition, the high number of cars and public transport vehicles encouraged this type of transport.Air is also a very popular means of transport, as the country has also invested in airline airlines, which promote faster travel, as the country is very large.Pipeline transport is also popular in the country, as 70% of the oil and petroleum transported in the country is via pipeline.Water is the least used means of transport in the country, as there are faster and more efficient transport technologies than vehicles that are used on water.However, water transport is used for the export of products and tourist and themed trips.
