A. A quiet, reflective young man of "old money" wealth, from the Midwest.
Nick Carraway is the narrator of "The Great Gatsby," a novel by author F. Scott Fitzgerald.Nick's family is "something of a clan," and they are more likely old money. That means their money was acquired generations ago. However, they do not seem as wealthy as Nick's cousin Daisy, for example.Nick is more of a reflective and reserved type. Although he is constantly dragged into parties and dinners, he does not seem to seek adventure or shallow enjoyment on his own.He does move to New York to learn the bond business, but he does not need to. He could very well have stayed home and enjoyed his family's situation.With that in mind, we can choose letter A as the best option.Learn more about the topic here:

do you agree or disagree with prometheus's choice to give mankind fire?why or why not
Answer:
Yes, I agree, since Prometheus knew that fire was fundamental to guarantee the development of humanity, despite the refusal of the gods.
Explanation:
The myth of Prometheus is significant. Man had come off poorly in the original allocation of gifts and skills by the Greek gods. Both in terms of survival instincts and in terms of natural defenses, the other living things were much better off. Out of love for humanity, Prometheus stole fire from the Olympian gods and gave it to the people. He taught people how to work metal with it and learned to appropriate their technical skills.
Prometheus was punished for it by Zeus, the Greek supreme god. The supreme god and Prometheus had been friends, but despite the prohibition of Zeus, the Titan still gave the fire to the people. Therefore, the former confidant received a gruesome punishment for the treason. The nemesis, the "avenging justice" fell to him: he was shackled to the Caucasus mountain range where the eagle Ethon came every day to eat his liver. Every night the liver grew back. The nemesis should have lasted forever, but the hero Heracles set him free during his eleventh labor.

L14: Analyzing Word Choice 137
Part 1: Introduction
Have you ever heard someone say “It’s the little things that matter”? In everyday life, little
things can make you happy, sad, annoyed, or excited. In literature and poetry, the little
things that matter are words, chosen carefully by the author. Words affect meaning and
establish the tone, or the attitude of the narrator or speaker. Word choice also is
important because it can create the mood, or atmosphere, in a story or poem.
Read the poem below, paying close attention to poet’s choice of action verbs and
descriptive words.
Murky Monday. Lockers slam,
Doorways clog and hallways jam.
Sweetest Ruby smiles so wide—
She can’t see me shyly hide . . .
Wondrous Monday. Lockers shine.
Ruby smiled at me in line.
Circle words in each line that help you understand the speaker’s feelings.
Read the chart below to help you analyze the poet’s word choices in each line.
Lines Words with Positive Meaning Words with Negative Meaning
1–2 murky, slam, clog, jam
3–4 sweetest, smiles shyly, hide
5–6 wondrous, shine, smiled
Just as movie directors pay attention to the smallest details when setting up each scene,
authors pay attention to each word when they create poems and stories. In this poem, the
poet uses words to show how the speaker’s whole attitude changes after Ruby smiles at
him. Analyzing an author’s choice of words will help you understand a text’s meaning,
mood, and tone.

I...........(go) to the supermarket to buy some coffee
Answer:
Went.
Explanation:
This question is simply about using the most appropriate verb to fill the gap and make the sentence complete and logical.
A verb can be defined as a doing word or a word that describes an action being performed by someone or something. Some examples of verbs are go, come, dance, went, sit, walk, clap, etc.
We cannot use go in the sentence because the action has been performed already. Therefore, we would use the past tense of go which is went.

What do you understand about the word characters?Characters refer to a person or other being in a narrative such as a novel, play, radio or television series, music, film, or video game. The character may be entirely fictional or based on a real-life person, in which case the distinction between a fictional versus a real character may be made.
Character, particularly when enacted by an actor in the theatre or cinema, involves the illusion of being a human person. In literature, characters guide readers through their stories, helping them to understand plots and ponder themes. Since the end of the 18th century, the phrase in character has been used to describe an effective impersonation by an actor.
Since the 19th century, the art of creating characters, as practised by actors or writers, has been called characterisation.
