It was a dark and stormy night, as the captain steered into the crashing waves." How does the setting create a mood?


Question 2 options:


The captain is in a bad mood after seeing the storm.



Personification of the waves make them act like a character in the story.



The author's use of dark and stormy location, set a dangerous and foreboding mood.



Settings do nothing to create mood.


I confused plz help

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The setting helps create a mood in the sense that:

C. The author's use of dark and stormy location, set a dangerous and foreboding mood.

Explanation:

Setting can be defined as the "where and when" of a story: the place, the time in history, the social context and so on in which the story develops. Description of the setting can, among other things, help create the mood of the story.

In the line "It was a dark and stormy night, as the captain steered into the crashing waves," the way the author has chosen to describe the setting conveys a sense of danger. It is dark and stormy. The waves are crashing. We can easily imagine an angry ocean and how dangerous it is to be on that ship right now. It must be terrifying, and we would feel the imminence of a tragedy. That is why letter C is the best option for this question.

in the monkey paw story how does the author create a feeling or suspense or tension in the story?

Answers

Answer:

It is a stormy night.  There is a chess game going on and this in itself can be suspenseful or apprehensive.  Read the portion that describes the place and home that they live in.  The author sets the scene and the atmosphere around the characters.  

Explanation:

This story was written in the early twentieth century and it reads like a Victorian story.  There is old fashioned language used and at that time the amount of money they are talking about - was a lot of money.  Just reading the portions to set the scene give you a ghost story like presence.  Remember too, that the use of a mystical object (supernatural sense) makes you get goosebumps.

Answer:

The answer is C: by creating a dark, stormy setting and introducing a mysterious, cursed object.

ILL GIVE BRAINLY TO WHOEVER ANSWERS THIS QUESTION. Is there a clear line between what is right and what is wrong? giving examples, and making connections. You should have FIVE SENTENCES total!

Answers

Answer:

Yes, there is a clear line between what is right and what is wrong. But at the same time I think it depends on people's preferences and opinions. For an example, some people think its ok to beg on the streets-while other people think its trashy/impolite. But, in most cases, yes. People should most of the time know when to stay out of trouble.

Explanation:

Personally there isn't a clear line. I feel like what is right and what is wrong mean different things to different people. For example, I believe what Donald trump does is wrong and how he is racist, yet there are many who disagree. Another example is say I get an abortion, to some people that is the right thing, but to others it is completely wrong. I rest my case.

Read the excerpt from The Call of the Wild.

Those who were looking on heard what was neither bark nor yelp, but a something which is best described as a roar, and they saw Buck’s body rise up in the air as he left the floor for Burton’s throat... while a surgeon checked the bleeding, [Buck] prowled up and down, growling furiously, attempting to rush in, and being forced back by an array of hostile clubs.

What do the sensory details in this excerpt help readers understand about Buck?

He is as aggressive as a wolf when it comes to protecting those he loves.
He has a deep anger and resentment for anyone other than Thornton.
He will do whatever is necessary to protect himself from being abused.
He cares very little about hiding the violent side of his personality.

Answers

He will do whatever is necessary to protect himself from being abused.

I don’t know if I’m right but I will try to explain.

I remember in the call of the wild, Buck came from being an innocent house dog to an aggressive wolf after he was taken to be a sled dog.

Buck was never the type to growl or bite but after the way he was treated and beaten by other dogs he had learned to trust no one and to stay alive.

I also think Buck fought hard to be the dog in charge and he ended up killing a dog (I forgot the name).

Explanation:

It had seemed to me personally that when the main character stated "I know how that goes", they suspected that something that happened to them previously would come up again, and it was the same case, it had repeated itself. They imply that they might perhaps lose people that they love, resulting in them trying to avoid making friends with people so they don't feel heartbroken when they have to leave again. I felt frustrated and sad by this, since its terrible and unfortunate to have to be alone because you know you'll end up losing someone you care for.

Lens Quotation: "Character is what you are in the dark." -Dwight Lyman Moody

Answers

Answer:

There are many books in which I could pull from, but the best example would be The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien. Tolkien throws the reader into a mystical world set in Middle Earth. We are introduced with a Hobbit who enjoys a quaint simple life. Like many Hobbits, Bilbo Baggins does not like adventures, as it is not in their "nature." But Gandalf comes by to prove otherwise. During the novel, Bilbo is recruited by Gandalf to help a pack of Dwarves reclaim their lost home. When Bilbo accepted this journey, we are already seeing Bilbo's true colors coming through. Bilbo scurries along to meet the rest of his party as the entirety of Bag End shuns him. A great example of Bilbo's character in the dark is when he is literally in the dark. His quick thoughts are what saves him from being Gollum's next meal when he falls into his cave. Bilbo saved his own life that day because of his witty puzzles and quick actions against Gollum. At heart, Bilbo is an adventurer, just like the Took side of his family. With the help of a couple of new friends, Bilbo was able to show his "true character in the dark" to the world.

(23) He hesitated, not wanting to say he had come to look for me, I figured. (24) “Oh,” he said, “Just . . . down the road.” (25) When that didn't seem adequate, he added, “To walk the flume.”

(26) I would have let it go, because he probably made it up, anyway, and if he hadn't, so what? (27) Let him go ahead and walk it. (28) But Martin picked up on it right away.

The sentence that should she include in the message's body is I am enclosing a price list for six different models. The correct option is B.

What is a proposal?

A proposal is a strategy or notion that is put forth for discussion and decision-making, frequently in a formal or written format. The country's constitutional crisis will be resolved by the president's new proposals.

Although they both refer to creating a future together, the two ideas have different meanings. A marriage proposal is an invitation to marry made by one person to another. The engagement, however, refers to a mutual declaration.

The definitions of engagement and proposal are identical. They talk about the commitment to get married. However, the act of asking a partner to marry is frequently referred to as a marriage proposal.

Therefore, the correct option is B. I am enclosing a price list for six different models.
