Like the keys of a piano, the planks kept rising and falling, and unguarded passage over them entailed either a bump on the back of the neck or a bruise on the forehead or a bite on the tip of one's tongue.

In beowulf what does Grendel do to the Thanes in Denmark
Answer:
Grendel terrorizes the Thanes every night as the soldiers of Hrothgar are asleep. He kills them and thus prevents them from staging a fight back. The Thanes are so terrorized at the hands of Grendel for many years until a Geatish warrior named Beowulf comes to their rescue.
Explanation:
b) Beowulf was an epic poem, which chronicled the events that took place in Denmark in the early part of the 6th century CE. Controversially, it is believed to have been authored between 700 and 750 by an unknown poet. The main lesson from this poem is that it is rewarding to be courageous, charitable, and loyal. As a well-deserved reward, Beowulf later became the king of the Thanes after the death of Hrothgar.

Hello. You forgot to show that the party claims that Brooklyn was so dangerous that Puerto Rico.
Answer:
D. "Something could happen to you' was a variety of dangers outside the locked doors of our apartment.
Explanation:
After moving to Brooklyn, the protagonist of the story decides to take a walk around the neighborhood to get to know the place, but her mother stops her by saying “Who said you could go out to the sidewalk? This isn’t Puerto Rico. Something can happen to you. ”
The expression "Something could happen to you" means "" Something could happen to you "which reveals that her apple said that something dangerous could happen to her outside the house and therefore walks in the neighborhood should be avoided as much as the place where they were was dangerous.

Read the following passage and answer the question that follows:
from Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka
(1)One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked.
(2)"What's happened to me?" he thought. It wasn't a dream. His room, a proper human room although a little too small, lay peacefully between its four familiar walls. A collection of textile samples lay spread out on the table -Samsa was a travelling salesman - and above it there hung a picture that he had recently cut out of an illustrated magazine and housed in a nice, gilded frame. It showed a lady fitted out with a fur hat and fur boa who sat upright, raising a heavy fur muff that covered the whole of her lower arm towards the viewer.
(3)Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather. Drops of rain could be heard hitting the pane, which made him feel quite sad. "How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense", he thought, but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right, and in his present state couldn't get into that position. However hard he threw himself onto his right, he always rolled back to where he was. He must have tried it a hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldn't have to look at the floundering legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull pain there that he had never felt before.
The above selection describes a scene that should be terrifying. However, the author uses pacing to create a different effect. What is this effect? (5 points)

Why do you think the Franks, van Daans, and Dussel make a point to celebrate the holiday of Hanukkah?
Answer:
The Franks, van Daans, and Dussel make a point to celebrate the holiday of Hanukkah because they want to celebrate life amidst the terrible times and death all around them.
Explanation:
In 'The Diary of A Young Girl', Anne Frank writes about the time in hiding when they celebrated two festivals. One of them was Hanukkah. Hanukkah is a Jewish festival celebrated for eight-days in remembrance of the rededication of Jerusalem temple in the Second century B. C.
Even while the Franks, van Daans, and Dussel were in hiding, they celebrated Hanukkah because they wanted to celebrate life. Even though they were surrounded by danger, they wanted to have some moment of joy, and Hanukkah gave them that joy.
