A and d I believe but I'm not sure
Answer: question 4: third person.
question 2: b, he is traveling north
Explanation: well think about how the story is talking to you, is the frog telling the story? no. is the scorpian telling the story? no therefor its a narrator telling the story. and the point of this story is all about how the scorpian can't swim so he asks for the frogs help. however the frog is worried because the scorpian has a deadly sting. and the reason the scorpian has to ask the frog for help is because he needs to cross the river so through process of elimination we see that the only answer that isnt important to the story is b, he is traveling north.
ACTIVITY N° 2 Compare two places. Write 10 sentences, use long, short and irregular adjectives. Compara dos lugares. Escribe 10 oraciones usando adjetivos cortos, largos e irregulares.
Answer:
1. Rio de Janeiro is hotter than London.
2. Siberia is colder than Florida.
3. São Paulo is more crowded than Dublin.
4. Texas is larger than New York.
5. Qatar is smaller than China.
6. San Francisco is better than Los Angeles.
7. Detroit is more dangerous than Boston.
9. Iraq is worse than Iran.
10. Brasilia is safer than Caracas.
Explanation:
When we have a small regular adjective being used to compare, we usually add -er to its ending. If the adjective already ends in -e, we can add only -r. If the adjective has one syllable ending in consonant + vowel + consonant, we must first double the final consonant before adding -er. Examples: hot - hotter; cold - colder; small - smaller; safe - safer.
When the regular adjective is long, we place "more" before it: more crowded; more dangerous.
Irregular adjectives will not follow the rules above, and must be memorized. For example: bad - worse; good - better; far - further.
example, prefix + like = dislike or like + suffix = likeable ...etc
21. love + suffix =
22. prefix + arm =
23. prefix + possible =
24. small + suffix =
25. prefix + form + suffix =
Answer:

I need help with mood, tone, and different imagery please actually help I'll give brainless and extra points
story and questions below
Answer: Mood is the emotion in the reader feels as s/he follows the narrative.
Tone is the author's attitude toward the subject. Here, Bracken seems to be writing seriously and with lots of objective description-- at least at the beginning.
She seems to draw the reader into the story with a sense of awe and wonder about the situation.
Fill in the imagery with the descriptions.
Explanation:
Some examples of imagery that should create a mood:
He woke to the feeling of rough ground beneath him and the stench of mortal blood. His body was slower to recover than his mind. Unwelcome sensations burned through him as his skin tightened like newly fired clay.
The visual imagery here: a person waking on rough ground. Why? What happened? Other sensory images: "Stench of mortal blood." Is it his own blood or are there other victims? "sensations burned through him as his skin tightened like newly fired clay." Imagine what that feels like. What is your mood now? Awe? Fear? Wonder? Something else?
Dark blood flowed in rivers around him. A young girl, her mask ripped from her face, stared at him with unseeing eyes from the edge of the crater. A knife was still buried in her throat. A man’s head, severed from his body, bore the mask of a horse. A dagger was balanced in a limp hand that was missing fingers.
More visuals: Pick any of these. They are vivid images. Author Bracken tone seems to be describing a horrific scene as if its just a picture on the wall--objective but terrible. Is your mood changing?
Next passage:
His mortal bloodline. The House of Kadmos. They had come to collect him, their new god. He stretched his neck until it cracked, watching their approach. The hunters were awed, and it pleased him. His predecessor, the last new Ares, had been unworthy to hold the mantle of the god of war. It had been an unspeakable pleasure to kill him and claim his birthright seven years ago.
Here is a switch. Now it's surreal. Who are these gods? The warrior described at the outset is not a mortal; he's a god, now surrounded by other gods. The tone is still serious, matter-of-fact, but my mood is less one of awe, and more like curious, and hopeful that there will be some explanation for all the destruction and goriness. This is where the lore comes in, the legends, the culture that produced these gods and their motivations.

A Flag with 50 Stars
The first American flag to have red and white stripes and white stars on a blue field was flown in 1776, shortly after the United States declared its independence from Great Britain. Legend has it that a Philadelphia seamstress named Betsy Ross was hired by George Washington himself to create this flag. There is no evidence that this legend is true, and no one knows for certain who made the first flag, which had 13 stars and 13 stripes. However, we know for a fact that the first flag to have 50 stars—the one we have today—was designed by a high school student.
In 1958, Bob Heft was a 17-year-old student at Lancaster High School in Ohio. At that time, the United States had only 48 states but was on the verge of accepting two more: Alaska and Hawaii. The U.S. flag at the time had six neat rows of eight stars each. What would be the best way to add two more stars while keeping the arrangement neat and orderly? This was the question that Bob’s history teacher posed to the class.
The teacher gave the students an assignment: design a flag with 50 stars. Bob spent hours in the attic of his house, cutting up a 48-star flag and rearranging the stars until they fit just right. He was pleased with his solution to the problem, but his teacher found it less than perfect and gave him a B minus. Outraged, Bob told his teacher that he was going to send his design to his member of Congress, Walter Moeller. His teacher replied that if Bob’s design was accepted as the new flag, he would be more than happy to change his grade to an A.
A year later, Bob had graduated and was working as a draftsman when he received a call at work. He never would have imagined a call from President Eisenhower—but that's who it was! Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag. Bob Heft was invited to Washington, D.C., for a ceremony during which his design was officially adopted as the new flag of the United States.
Question 1
Part A
What inference can be made about the time period of the text?
People were more patriotic than they are today.

Question 2
Part B
Which evidence from the text best supports the answer in Part A?
“Bob Heft was invited to Washington, D.C., for a ceremony during which his design was officially adopted as the new flag of the United States.”
“At that same time, the United States had only 48 states but was on the verge of accepting two more: Alaska and Hawaii.”
“However, we know for a fact that the first flag to have 50 stars—the one we have today—was designed by a high school student.”
“Outraged, Bob told his teacher that he was planning on sending his design to his member of Congress, Walter Moeller.”

All right yall so I want you to right a second paragraph for this story ..........................................Me and my dad michael went out to a lake once to go fishing and he caught some fish, but i wasn't able to catch anything so he told me that i needed to set the hook before i reel back in, He said "when you feel some small tugs and you are sure they are still there then you have to jolt your fishing rod backwards to get the hook stuck inside of the fish's mouth" so I did that and i had caught my very first fish. But there was something I didn’t know and that was that the area me and my dad were fishing in had a mega fish.
Answer:
I am not going to write the paragraph for you because that would be cheating. The most I could do Is give you advice.
Explanation:
For your second paragraph, I would dedicate that whole paragraph to the "mega fish." I would capItalize that too (Megafish). Describe its outside its scales its teeth. But wait, a "Megafish" is a real thing. If you are talking about a mythical creature then you have to change the name. If not continue. Talk about rumors that you heard from other people or the old man in the rocking chair by the lake who said something real creepy to you both hinting about the "Megafish" but overlooked what you heard. Something like that. Stories need very described things. The reader needs to make the image in their head and it's hard to do that when there is no description.
