It makes the story to be filled with suspense.

A mouse, who always lived on the land, by an unlucky chance, formed a close friendship with a frog, who
lived, for the most part, in the water.
One day, the frog wanted to cause trouble. He tied the foot of the mouse tightly to his own. Thus joined
together, the frog led his friend the mouse to the meadow where they usually searched for food After this, he
gradually led him towards the pond in which he lived, until reaching the banks of the water, he suddenly jumped
in, dragging the mouse with him.
The frog enjoyed the water amazingly, and swam croaking about, as if he had done a good deed. The
unhappy mouse was soon sputtered and drowned in the water, and his poor dead body floating about on the
surface. Whawk observed the floating mouse from the sky, and dove down and grabbed it with his talons, carrying
it back to his nest. The frog, being still fastened to the leg of the mouse, was also carried off a prisoner, and was
eaten by the hawk.

Which of these sentences uses correct punctuation?
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The others don't use correct punctuation.
Ie, using a semi-colon instead of a colon and commas rather than periods.
Answer:
C. in time of course all the issues get resolved, but not necessary in the way would like
Explanation:
the two complete ideas are joined together correctly with a comma and conjunction. When there are two independent clauses "In time, of course, all issues get resolved" and "not necessarily in the way you would like", They need to be joined with either a conjunction and a comma, or a semicolon. Option A joins the two complete ideas with only a comma. This is not enough. Option B does not have two complete ideas. instead it uses a semicolon for a list. A semicolon is not used to begin a list, a colon is. The last sentence is wrong because it uses a colon and conjunction to join two complete ideas, but it should be a comma.

Read the quote by Baron de Montesquieu. When the legislative and executive powers are united in the same person, or in the same body of magistrates, there can be no liberty; because apprehensions may arise, lest the same monarch or senate should enact tyrannical laws, to execute them in a tyrannical manner. According to the quote, is lost if one person has too much power.
Answer:
Liberty
Explanation:
According to the quote by Baron de Montesquieu, liberty is lost if the legislative and executive powers are vested on one person or body of magistrates because there is the fear that tyranny would take over.
Freedom is lost if one person has too much power, according to the quote by Baron de Montesquieu.
Freedom and powerThe quote we are analyzing here by Baron de Montesquieu basically states that the power should be divided into different bodies of government. We need a legislative body and an executive body so that they can each refrain each other.
If there is only one body of government, the power will be concentrated, and there will be no one to refrain it. With that, people will lose their freedom as the government will be entitled to do whatever it pleases.
With the information above in mind, the best word to complete the sentence is "freedom."

Explain the statement, “What were luxuries have become the necessities of life.”
Explanation:
This statement could be interpreted in a number of ways. For example, it could show how humanity has become greedy and obsessed with luxuries that they feel as if they cannot live without it. For example, having a phone. This could also represent how time has passed and how both our necessities and luxuries change (depending where you live). For example, having a TV in the early 30's and/or 40's having a TV was a luxury but by the time of the 60's (or 70's I think) almost every family already had one.

2. chattel --> any article of movable or immovable property
3. patroon --> a landowner who had certain privileges under the former Dutch government of New York
Explanation:
A proprietary colony was a type of settlement common between the years 1660 and 1690. They were large tracts of land given to favorites of the British crown. In other words, they were colonies owned by a private person, who was supposed to supervise and develop them.
A chattel is any item of tangible movable or immovable property that is not a building or a land.
A patroon was a certain type of landowner that had manorial privileges granted by the old Dutch governments of New York and New Jersey.

One theme found throughout The Odyssey is that help often comes when least expected. Which lines from the text best support this theme? Some god guided us that night, for we could barely see our bows in the dense fog around us All hands aboard; come, clear the beach and no one taste the Lotus, or you lose your hope of home. My men were mutinous, fools, on stores of wine. Sheep after sheep they butchered by the surf, and shambling cattle The servants armed themselves, and all three took their stand beside the master of battle

in the dense fog around us
Explanation:
Lines from the text best support this theme that some god guided us that night, for we could barely see our bows in the dense fog around us. Thus the correct answer is A.
What is the message of the Odyssey?In The Odyssey, destiny, the deeds of the gods, and the decisions made by the men and women individuals all have a role in influencing the lives of the characters.
In regards to Telemachus and Odysseus, the idea of spiritual development is important to The Odyssey. When the story begins Telemachus is unsure of how to handle the hopefuls who have occupied his home and are attempting to marry off his mother for largely political purposes.
The thought that help often comes when least expected shows a loss of hope as they lose hope of getting help and suddenly they receive it.
Therefore, option A is appropriate.

6. Analyze Clover's role in the novel. Consider her role as a worker, caretaker, as well as a friend to the other
animals. How does she change throughout the novel? Is she a necessary character? Why or why not?
Answer and Explanation:
Clover is one of the two horses living on Animal Farm. She functions as a mother figure for the other animals, especially the most vulnerable ones. Just like Boxer, the other horse, she represents the working class of Soviet Russia - the ones who truly sacrificed for the leaders (the pigs, in this case) to lead an easy life.
Clover was a stout motherly mare approaching middle life, who had never quite got her figure back after her fourth foal.
Clover made a sort of wall round them with her great foreleg, and the ducklings nestled down inside it and promptly fell asleep.
At first, Clover believes in the ideal preached by the pigs. They speak of equality and justice, of a world where animals are happy and free, where they work for the common good instead of a greedy human. Being less intelligent than the pigs, she trusts them completely, resting assured they know what they are doing.
However, as the pigs become more and more similar to humans in their behavior and greediness, Clover's perception begins to change. She is not able to fully understand what is going on at first, but she can tell something is wrong.
Boxer passed it off as usual with "Napoleon is always right!", but Clover, who thought she remembered a definite ruling against beds, went to the end of the barn and tried to puzzle out the Seven Commandments which were inscribed there. Finding herself unable to read more than individual letters, she fetched Muriel.
"Muriel," she said, "read me the Fourth Commandment. Does it not say something about never sleeping in a bed?"
With some difficulty Muriel spelt it out.
"It says, 'No animal shall sleep in a bed with sheets,"' she announced finally.
Curiously enough, Clover had not remembered that the Fourth Commandment mentioned sheets; but as it was there on the wall, it must have done so. And Squealer, who happened to be passing at this moment, attended by two or three dogs, was able to put the whole matter in its proper perspective.
Finally, as the pigs' corruption gets more flagrant, Clover is utterly disappointed. She is deeply sad to see their dreams fall apart. Clover is not only necessary, but also a crucial character. She represents the feelings of the working class - their disappointment and sense of betrayal.
As Clover looked down the hillside her eyes filled with tears. If she could have spoken her thoughts, it would have been to say that this was not what they had aimed at when they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race. These scenes of terror and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to on that night when old Major first stirred them to rebellion. If she herself had had any picture of the future, it had been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity, the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of Major's speech.
