Which two parts of this excerpt from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein reveals information about the setting? (It was on a dreary night of November that i beheld the accomplishment of my toils.) With an anxiety that almost amounted to agony, (I collected
the instruments of life around me, that I might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet). (It was already one in the
morning the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, ) when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light,
I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs.
(How can I describe my emotions at this catastrophe,) or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care I had endeavoured to
form? His limbs were in proportion, and I had selected his features as beautiful. Beautifull Great God! (His yellow skin scarcely covered the work
of muscles and arteries beneath; his hair was of a lustrous black, and flowing; his teeth of a pearly whiteness; ) but these luxuriances only formed
a more horrid contrast with his watery eyes, that seemed almost of the same colour as the dun-white sockets in which they were set, his
shriveled complexion and straight black lips.

Read the excerpt from warriors don't cry. as we approached behind them, we could see only the clusters of white people that stretched for a distance of two blocks along the entire span of the school building. my mind could take in the sights and sounds only one by one: flashing cameras, voices shouting in my ears, men and women jostling each other, old people, young people, people running, uniformed police officers walking, men standing still, men and women waving their fists, and then the long line of uniformed soldiers carrying weapons just like in the war movies i had seen. which words create the mood in the excerpt? check all that apply.

What is the effect of narrator's word choice on the tone of this passage? the words "my heart shrank within itself" create a fearful tone. the words "wounded his fellow" develop a remorseful tone. the words "struck harsh upon my ears" suggest an irritated tone. the words "better-omened" set a hopeful tone. excerpt from "the cabuliwallah" by rabindranath tagore i was sitting in my study, looking through the accounts, when some one entered, saluting respectfully, and stood before me. it was rahmun the cabuliwallah. at first i did not recognise him. he had no bag, nor the long hair, nor the same vigour that he used to have. but he smiled, and i knew him again. "when did you come, rahmun? " i asked him. "last evening," he said, "i was released from jail." the words struck harsh upon my ears. i had never before talked with one who had wounded his fellow, and my heart shrank within itself when i realised this; for i felt that the day would have been better-omened had he not turned up.
