Explanation:

“A Horseman in the Sky” is a short story written by Ambrose Bierce. The story takes place during the American secession war and tells the story of a soldier who was mistaken for death when he was falling asleep while searching for enemy soldiers. Upon waking this soldier ended up visualizing someone from the enemy army and decided to kill him. This moment when the character decides to kill the man or not is a moment that shows how this soldier advances in the story and the quote that most represents this is:  "Duty had conquered; the spirit had said to the body: "Peace, be still. "He fired."

jeez la wheeze! i just checked other people who had the same question as you and both had terrible answers.

i hope i could be a little bit of a though!

hmm, lets see here. okay! so, i don't know the passages exactly since i haven't taken that quiz before, but! i will try to the best i can.

if you need on what igbo means, ill give you a hand.

igbo means a member of a people of southeastern nigeria.

so, they're asking you, "what passage uses igbo words or phrases and in at least 100 words, identify the kinds of context clues the author uses to hint at the words' meaning."

so basically, don't stress or over look this.

look closely at the passages and see if you can spot any of those hints! it doesn't have to be all, remember, its a quiz! no right or wrong answers.

the teachers are always there to and if you are struggling on this topic they will notice it in your score on the quiz and you.

(; i do hope this is useful to you!     < 3
