Effect on tone and mood: The author compares helping the Jewish with something illegal to show the seriousness of the social situation.
Effect on the audience: The audience is left with the feeling that nobody could help the Jewish.
What do you do if you mix up your tenses in a sentence
Answer:
There are many ways to go about this. The common tense rule is this: The tenses of verbs in a sentence must be consistent when the actions happen at the same time. When dealing with actions that occur at different points in time, however, we can – and probably should – use multiple tenses in the same sentence.

with examples, discuss any major literary device used in D H Lawrence poem "bat"
Answer:
One of the literary devices used in the poem is Metaphor.
Metaphor is one of the most widely used literary devices. It occurs when the write refers to a meaning or identity ascribed to one subject by way of another.
Explanation:
In the first 5 lines, you see Lawrence applying attributes of living things to non-living things.
For example:
a) "When the sun from the west, beyond Pisa, beyond the mountains of Carrara Departs,..."
b) "When the tired flower of Florence is in gloom..."
In A he says "the sun departs" instead of "the sun sets"
in B he posits that the flower of Florence is tired and gloomy.
Overall tonality is one of sadness and he uses metaphoric imagery to communicate this perfectly.

Which evidence from the passage answer this question How was blueberry growing changed
Answer:
In the early 1900s, Elizabeth White and Dr. Frederick Coville began to farm wild highbush blueberries. Later, plant breeders developed the new kinds of larger, hardy berries that you see in grocery stores. You can still find wild blueberries, often in hilly or mountainous areas.
Explanation:
The passage tells us that Elizabeth White and Dr. Fredrick Cole began growing wild highbush blueberries in the 1900s. As time went by, blueberries could be found as hardy berries, and this change was effected by plant breeders. Today, the blueberries can be found in hilly areas and at self-pick farms. This excerpt shows a progressive change from what was obtainable in the 1900s to what is applicable today.
The American Indians were also familiar with places where these blueberries could be gotten, but the actual growth started in the 1900s with the two farmers. From that time on, several changes in the way the blueberries were grown are shown.
Answer: Many tasty dishes can be made from blueberries, including pies, breads, jellies, and jams.
