Read the excerpt from “The Lady, or the Tiger?”

In the very olden time there lived a semi-barbaric king, whose ideas, though somewhat polished and sharpened by the progressiveness of distant Latin neighbors, were still large, florid, and untrammeled, as became the half of him which was barbaric.

Which types of descriptive language are used in the excerpt?

metaphor and hyperbole
strong verbs and simile
sensory details and precise adjectives
precise adjectives and strong verbs

Answer:

Precise adjectives (polished, sharpened, large, florid, untrammeled) and strong verbs would be my guess.

Explanation:

Polished, sharpened, large, florid, and untrammeled are all good adjectives. The use of verbs is more prominent than the application of sensory details in my opinion, but that would also work.

Look at the painting The Great Wave by Katsushika Hokusai. Block print of Hokusai’s The Great Wave. Which excerpt from the poem "The Great Wave: Hokusai" best supports the conclusion that the artist intended the wave to feel threatening? It is because the sea is blue, Because Fuji is blue, because the bent blue Men have white faces, like the snow On Fuji, like the crest of the wave in the sky the color of their Boats. It is because the air Is full of writing, because the wave is still: that nothing Will harm these frail strangers, That high over Fuji in an earthcolored sky the fingers Will not fall In the painter's sea All fishermen are safe. All anger bends under his unity. But the innocent bystander, he merely 'Walks round a corner, thinking of nothing': hidden He stands half in and half out of the world; he is the men, But he cannot see below Fuji The shore the color of sky; he is the wave, he stretches His claws against strangers.

is it good crazy house


May: 19 1966. bye mom i'm going to the party “ok greg but don't go near that house you know the house”. Ya ya there's a haunted house in those woods and if you go in you will never come out. It has been haunted by the previous owner who died. That house has been haunted since 1956. That house has been abandoned since.

I reached the woods and there were a bunch of signs reading “stay out” “stay away don't take the risk” I walked right by those signs. But then I feel uneasy. I start to hear whispers saying “get out get out” “get out” I start running and the voices are getting louder “GeT OuT!! GeT OuT!!” I slip and start rolling down a cliff and bang!! I hit my head on a rock and I blacked out.
I see bright lights. It was comfy but wait whose house is this I just see blur but I can read cra- crazy hou- house no I wipe my eyes and I read it again crazy house OH NO NO NO NO this is the haunted house my mom was talking about. I saw a super fast blueish greenish light fly by me. I was hungry but all I saw in the house's fridge was a bunch of wooden bull heads. And all over the wall was a bunch of newspapers and posters saying missing kid missing person they were all last
seen in these woods. Ohh wait what is that poster!! It has my name on it I quickly read it says “missing kid greg caldwell” so I tear it up and I look every around the room and a bunch of my posters are up I start running up the spiral flight of stairs im running up the stairs but it feels like i'm not even going up I have been running up for 10 minutes strait. And it all still looks the same. It's like I'm in one of those carnival mazes where you feel you're at the end but youre right where you started. I went back

downstairs to use the phone and I dialled 911 but all I got was a bunch of static and a fainted voice which said “get out of my house'' and the voice got louder. “Get out, get out!!” That voice I heard in the woods, I ripped that phone from the wall and all the voices stopped… But 1 minute later I heard “you come to my house and rip my posters, step on my stars, sleep in my house and rip my phone from my house”. and I hear some strange noises coming from the hall.

I check on the hall and I see this pale 10ft super skinny man. He was as skinny as a skeleton. This thing said it again “you come to my house and rip my posters, step on my stars, sleep in my house and rip my phone off the wall GEEET OUT!!” Now he starts to chase me and he tackles me and he says “you will pay” he opens his mouth he had teeth like a shark he probably had 1 million of them.

Then boom we both hear an old guy screaming and starts attacking the monster and says “run!! Greg” So I ran off behind the coach and watched him fight. He kills the monster and the monster says you will pay in a fainted voice. I was hiding behind the couch and I am thinking how did he know my name greg how!! He steps up to me covered with green slime from the monster and says “get up son it's all over you're okay” wh- who are you and how do you know my name “kid stop talking and get up” ok I got up and he says “follow me”.

He take me to this secret room with a bunch of cameras and monitors he told me “how did you get here young man” I tell him everything and I say “my name is greg how do you know that” “I saw the posters” oh right well do you know how to get out of here “yes but it’s very complicated its like a maze. I have been studying this place for 70 years since I was 19.

“I now know this place is like it's my own house” wow!! Ok can you show me the exit please “sure but you have to pay” I got money “no I want your belt” what! why “trust me we will need it” ok but only if I can get out of here. hey do we need a key “oh ya thanks for reminding me” he grabbed a key out of the monsters stomach and his hand I covered with slime “ok all we need to do to get to the exit is walk down the stairs open this door and the exit is right ahead”.

ok are you coming “ya i'm just putting something on the house” “oh and take this” this is my poster of me missing ya watch it. We walked out of the house and the thing he put in the house was a bomb he set it off and BAAM!! It exploded. He says “look at the poster” I look at it and it starts to say Greg Caldwell, hero destroying the crazy house, how did you make that bomb? “From your belt son told ya we needed it”. I went home
and my mother ran up to me and started hugging me “thank you son now no more missing kids thank you”.
