Note in chronological order the two acts of revenge that Hrothgar describes in section XX
Final answer:
The provided excerpts do not contain a direct answer to the question about the chronology of two acts of revenge described by Hrothgar. Context or specific section numbers from the correct text are needed to provide an accurate timeline.
Explanation:
The student has asked for the chronology of two acts of revenge described by Hrothgar in a specific section, which could be a part of an epic, saga, or piece of literature they are studying, likely Beowulf. Unfortunately, the excerpts provided do not directly point to Hrothgar's telling of such events, nor do they appear to be from the correct text for this question. The first act of revenge includes 'The vengeance by a jealous step-dame ta'en', suggesting a woman taking revenge possibly on her stepsons, which could be an allusion to a mythological or literary event. The second could allude to Ethelred's tale of forcing his way into an abode, signifying personal revenge against the hermit described. However, without the correct context or section number, providing an accurate chronological order is not feasible.
It is important to consider that the full context of the question, such as the section number or the correct excerpts from the text, are needed to provide an accurate answer concerning the order of the acts of revenge described by Hrothgar.

Question 3(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points) (MC) STORIES OF USEFUL INVENTIONS, excerpt By S. E. Forman 1911 THE MATCH There never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match. Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by nature—by a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble. In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. What issue made a match, or other device for starting a fire, necessary? Burning material was hard to find. Fire was hard to transport. Nature was unreliable. Wind storms were frequent.
Answer:
The answer is indeed letter C) Nature was unreliable.
Explanation:
According to the author of "Stories of Useful Inventions", before the match was invented, man had to count on nature to kindle fire for him. The only problem was that nature was unreliable. First of all, fire was made under dangerous circumstances, such as the explosion of a volcano, or a lightning storm. Then, that fire had to be carried home and tended to in an almost sacred manner because, if it was extinguished, it wouldn't be easy to get it once more. Thus, depending on nature to kindle fire was unpractical for our development as a species.

If you are writing an essay in favor of gun control, which is a counterargument you might anticipate? People, not guns, are violent. Too many guns are in circulation. Gun violence is a serious problem.
Answer:
People, not guns, are violent.
Explanation:
If you are the person writing an essay in favor of gun control, then you must likely believe that guns are unnecessary, that there are too many in circulation or that they can be the cause of great tragedies. A counterargument would have to convey the opposite idea. Therefore, an argument that states that people, not guns, cause violence would support the idea of gun control being unnecessary.

"With sounds like dry rattling of a shutter" is an example of a:
The phrase "With sounds like dry rattling of a shutter" exemplifies onomatopoeia, which is a figure of speech where the word used imitates the natural sound of the action it describes.
The phrase "With sounds like dry rattling of a shutter" is an example of an onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeia is a figure of speech where words are used that imitate the natural sounds they describe, often creating a sound effect that mimics the thing described, thereby making descriptions more expressive and interesting. In this case, the word 'rattling' conveys the sound that shutters make when they are shaken, for example, by the wind.
The dynamic interaction between sound and perception is captured in Ingold's observation that the words we use, such as 'slamming' or 'whistling', describe actions or movements rather than static objects. Similarly, 'rattling' is not just about the sound itself, but also the motion that produces it. Furthermore, such sounds are often part of our background noise, which we learn to filter, as mentioned in Stand up, Speak out.

Which statement best explains how the author's use of foreshadowing affects the story?
It provides important information about the setting, showing that this area is being well-protected by a keen policeman.
It suggests that the man of the law who is keeping an eye on things with a "slight swagger" may not be as safe as he thinks.
It sets the stage that a police officer will be betrayed in this story by the man described as a "stalwart form."
It indicates that the police officer described takes his job seriously and suggests that he will do his duty no matter what.
Foreshadowing in this context serves to provide character insight and build anticipation, hinting at the officer's overconfidence and a possible deceptive sense of safety in the scene.
Explanation:The author's use of foreshadowing primarily serves to build anticipation and add depth to the character analysis. It provides a layered understanding of the police officer's demeanor, hinting that his confident swagger may betray a lack of awareness of potential danger. The suggested safety and well-being of the scene set by the officer's vigilant patrolling may be deceptive, pointing to potential conflict or critical events that might unfold later in the story.

1) The man next to him, talking to the neighbours whenever possible, was his father. The first modifying phrase is “next to him”, which acts as an adjective, as it describes the noun “man”. The second modifying phrase is “talking to the neighbours”, and it also acts as an adjective (also describes the man). The third modifying phrase would be “whenever possible”, and it acts as an adverb, telling us when the man talks to the neighbours.
2) The people urged him to surrender; he resisted. This sentence is compound because it has two independent clauses: “the people urged him to surrender” and “he resisted”. It is balanced for contrast with a semicolon because it is more effective that way. The semicolon adds to the dynamics. It is still the same sentence, and the contrast is all the more remarkable.
3) Helen was starting to like him; however, she didn’t want to show her true feelings. This is a compound sentence because it has two independent clauses. The conjunctive adverb is “however”. Here is how it would look without it: Helen was starting to like him, but she didn’t want to show her true feelings.
4) Everybody loved to listen to Marco, who was an interesting person. This is a complex sentence, composed of an independent clause “everybody loved to listen to Marco”, and a dependent (subordinate) clause “who was an interesting person”. Here is the same sentence with an appositive phrase instead of the subordinate clause: Everybody loved to listen to Marco, an interesting person.
