In the passage the narrator heard a certain thumping and got spooked out. He arose out of bed and followed the sound to a door. He couldn’t open it. He looked through the window and saw nothing. He supposedly heard a child crying, but it was just the wind. The narrator was pretty scared, but there was almost some familiarity to it, some long lost memories. Spider, his dog, was unsettled through the whole procedure of events. The passage tells us the author’s emotions and thoughts, which is pretty funny because sometimes the reader feels the same as the author! The author almost paints an image in our minds about the authors point of view and his senses, sight, taste, smell, noises he hears, and even other adverbs relating to what he is saying. Susan Hill, the author, describes everything her character probably saw or heard in this spine tickling extract. The way she even makes us pat the dog in the extract is something quite special. In this closing paragraph, I want to conclude with a note that the description of the glistening moon and the marshes had an example of a sudden, much needed dullness. “There lay the marshes silver grey and empty”. Just before that, however, was the description of the moon with some good examples of personification. The example is as follows: “Guided by the slant of moonlight that reached out into the darkness of the corridor”. In the end then, this ghost story is a great example of English literature.
We lose the great description of this story.
She almost guides us through the house, and then all of a sudden she will add a bit of a surprise here or there. Perhaps a short sentence or some onamatopoiea here or there.

How can class ranking be determined by burial sites?
Answer: you can tell class ranking by opening the burial sites what they are buried in, what they are buried with (upper class may bury high-value items with the person, and condition of the skeletal remains if possible to determine that still. Also where they are buried Cemetary for example has different areas for poorer people, different religions, children, etc. Tombs in Egypt and elsewhere are all designed and built according to social and economic standing
Explanation: Heres the actual article explaing it from https://bonesdontlie.wordpress.com/2012/01/24/status-and-rank-in-mortuary-archaeology/
STATUS AND RANK IN MORTUARY ARCHAEOLOGY
January 24, 2012 · by Kate Meyers Emery · in Funeral Practices, Mortuary Archaeology, Theories. ·
Using mortuary sites as evidence for reconstructing social organization in the past is not a new field of study. It became popular in the 1960s through 1980s during the New Archaeology era. In 1971, Binford argued that the study of mortuary sites was important because one could determine the social structure of the society from the study of the artifacts and burials. Differential treatment of the body, varying facilities of disposal, and variation in the grave goods were all signs that individuals had different social personae. By presenting burials as a reflection of structure rather than ideas, it gave archaeologists a way to integrate this form of evidence into systems theories and a solid piece of evidence that could be recovered, unlike belief systems. Binford (1971) argued that the higher status an individual was the more people would be invested in their burial. Tainter (1978) used this to create an analysis of energy expenditure, whereby more energy was used in burials for higher-ranking individuals. Peebles and Kus (1977) argued that different clusters of grave goods with burials meant different statuses, which could either be ranked vertically or due to different horizontal group associations. However, as noted by Carr (1995), the ‘excavation’ of social systems is just as difficult as the ‘excavation’ of belief systems. Determining status and rank requires careful contextual interpretation.
Campeche Museum, Mayan Burial
The problem with studies like Binford, Tainter, or Peebles and Kus, is that they do not consider evidence beyond the burial, grave goods, and immediate location. Focusing completely on social organization means losing sight of other potentially important variables. Spatial relationships need to be determined, as well as the potential symbolic meanings of the burials. While the social structure may frequently correlate with burial patterns, it isn’t necessarily the cause of the burials. It is important to consider the range of reasons behind certain burials including the social, ideological and environmental dimensions. Determining rank and status can be done, it just needs to be done carefully
From Oxford Archaeo, Attic red-figure lekythos
Another source of information often looked over in the past are the individuals themselves. Health is an important indicator of status, whether it be a lowered risk of infection, better access to medicine, differential access to food, or occupation. A new study by Watkins (2012) looks at the health of a historic skeletal collection. By looking at the variation in osteoarthritis (OA) patterns, the presence of enthesopathy, fractures and cause of death, she determined that there were two samples of skeletons from two very different social contexts. Based on the presence of mild OA and muscular stress, low disease and healed fractures in one group with much higher age, he determined that these were individuals collected from an almshouse. The second group had a higher prevalence of OA and muscular stress was affected by more diseases and had worse fractures suggesting that they did not have the care of an almshouse, but were on their own. Looking at the social context of early 20th century Washington, DC (where the collection comes from), Watkins (2012) argues that the first group may have been connected to an almshouse where individuals could get care throughout their life, where the second group did not have this connection. While this group has been lumped together in the past as reflecting a poor population, a closer examination reveals internal diversity that is important for better understanding social conditions and structure

What is the tone of the poem "Lost Generation" By Jonathan Reed?
PLEASE HELP THANK YOU!!
Answer:
This is both a cynical and optimistic poem that portrays an economically and technologically progressing generation that has lost sight of what really matters in life.
Answer: Pessimistic and hopeful
Explanation:
"The Lost Generation" both a pessimistic and hopeful poem about a generation that has lost sight of what is really important in life as it progresses technologically. When read from top to bottom, the poem is read from the viewpoint of a young man who has a selfish and defeated outlook on life, emphasizing work above family and openly asserting that destroying nature would become the norm, further stating that he, like his classmates, does not care about the Earth. The poem as a whole is rather negative and written in a more narrative style.
HURRY PLEASE. It’s hard to imagine two more different structures than the Eiffel Tower and Hoover Dam. For one thing, the Eiffel Tower is in Paris, France, and Hoover Dam is on the border between Nevada and Arizona. The Eiffel Tower is elegant and delicate looking, but Hoover Dam looks like a huge slab of concrete. The Eiffel Tower was made of many parts put together. But the concrete for Hoover Dam was poured at the site. The Eiffel Tower was built for a fair and was not intended to remain in place for long. Hoover Dam was built to allow water to be used in desert country and to create electricity. Everyone expected it to remain in place for many, many years.
Even though these two structures are so different, there are similarities. Each required great effort to complete. Each also necessitated the involvement of many workers. The workers on each faced many challenges and difficulties, and each was built in a series of steps. Each is huge but was built quickly, considering the amount of labor involved.
All of the Eiffel Tower’s parts were made in a factory near Paris. Each piece had to be the right size and shape. Smaller parts were put together and then joined to form a larger piece. These large pieces were put together at the site of the tower. Bolts held together the pieces made at the factory. At the tower, these bolts were pulled out and replaced with hot rivets. Teams of people worked to take out the bolts and put in the rivets.
Hoover Dam was built to replace one that had been washed away, but it was built in a new place. Four tunnels were blasted through rock to cause the Colorado River to flow in new directions. Then the river’s canyon walls had to be cleared. From great heights, workers dangled from ropes. With only air below their feet, they prepared the area for great concrete walls. Far underneath them, the area for the foundation was cleared of mud and loose rock. When this was finished, tons of wet concrete were poured into a gigantic form. For thirty months, concrete was poured until the work was done. Across the Colorado River stood a dam 700 feet tall. When the water was allowed to rush through tunnels, it passed through giant rotary engines, and as their parts whirled, they created electricity.
Making electricity and using water to irrigate dry land were both practical purposes for Hoover Dam. But the Eiffel Tower had no original purpose but to be beautiful. The man who designed it, Gustave Eiffel, looked for a practical use for it. The tower was more than a thousand feet tall, and it was a perfect place for a radio antenna. So, a radio station was built on the tower.
Both the Eiffel Tower and Hoover Dam are popular tourist attractions. Each is considered a marvelous example of engineering skill. What is the purpose of the first paragraph of the article? A.
to tell where the Eiffel Tower and Hoover Dam are located
B.
to show just how different the Eiffel Tower and Hoover Dam are

B.

C.

wine that I had heard of and could pronounce. 14The waiter brought the wine, poured a small amount into my glass, and waited. 151 said, “You don't have to stand there. We can pour the wine ourselves." 16 After the waiter put down the wine bottle and left. 7 Kennedi told me I was sup-posed to taste the wine. 18Feeling like a complete fool.11 barely managed to get through the dinner. 20 However, after I texted Kennedi to apologize for my awkwardness, we decided to start over and go on another date.
