The term best characterizes the mood of Mary Shelley's novel, "Frankenstein" which is Terrifying. Thus the correct option is D.

What is the mood?

The mood of the story defines the author's emotions and feelings while writing a piece of literature. The mood of the story defines the setting and atmosphere where it is written.

The mood of the novel  Frankenstein is defined as terrible and the author uses tone as depressing. Frankenstein's tone is primarily describing hopeless emotion. From Captain Walton's perspective, who is enthusiastic and eager about his journey, the tone starts out positive.

The monster had numerous occasions when it felt pleasure, enthusiasm, and happiness. He regularly felt depressed, neglected, and alone. His heart was corrupted by evil, rage, and grudges.

I couldn't feel my entire body, like the wasteland in front of me I was frozen over and near my end. As that could be an exaggeration, I couldn't feel anything in my body, my toes had long sense lost feeling and I lost feeling in my face awhile back. The wasteland in front of me housed hundreds of bodies, all of them screaming in delight all the while I wanted to scream in pain.

"You could at least look like your happy." My mother grumbled at me from beside me, of course. I turned to her with murder in my eyes, I will never be happy in this freezing weather of despair, the message came across in my eyes and she turned away from me with a frown. It was her fault I was in a horrid mood, I was freezing in the middle of nowhere when I could be at home in the warmth watching tv or doing something equally as mind numbing.

           It was dark, cold, and murky when he dreamt. When he woke flashes of memory came at him he was in Alaska fishing with his sister. The boat tipped she plummeted into the gloomy sunless black, and icy water below. He had to find her, but the flashes were gone just as soon as they came. Panicked he sat up he realized he was in a house a woman was cooking on a stove. Who was the girl asleep beside him. "oh your awake. I was so worried, you didn't come home and I panicked." Who was this strange woman speaking to him? He got up slowly as to not wake the slumbering girl. "You said you two were going fishing, so I rushed to the lake. The boat tipped Lacey fell in. She said it was freezing, and that you jumped in after her and put her back in the boat. You pushed the boat to shore when you got up you slipped and hit your head on a rock and fell into the water. Lacey tried to pull you back up, but you were too heavy for her. Had I not come running you would have drowned. Your father should b-" The girl interrupted " Your awake. I was so upset, I should have listened to you, Dakota. Your my big brother just like you said you're always right." At that, the girl bear-hugged him so tight he couldn't breathe. Who were these strange people? He gently pried the girl off of himself. "Who are you. I don't know you," he said as a tall man walked in. "Who are we! Were your' family who else would we be?" Said the man. "Don't be upset sweet. The doctor said this might happen-" Sobbing the girl said " You don't remember me. Your little lacey wacey. I'm your sister you said you'd always love and take care of me." "Darling don't cry the doctor said he might have some memory problems for a bit. He probably has amnesia. we'll need to take him to the doctor."An older girl walked in and said " This is jake" Pointing to the strange man "That Lacey, Mom, and then theirs me Maylin." Pointing to each person in turn."I'm twelve," Said Lacey."I'm sixteen, Jakes's fifteen, your thirteen, and goodness who knows how old mom is," Said Maylin. So the strange man was only fifteen two years older than him, But who was his dad."And only my mom knows my name," Thinking for a bit his mom said " your grandma is my mom her name is LaineDe Serenity Night you call her Lainey, and she calls you dearie. Do you remember your name? hm" He did not so he said, " No I do not remember my name." "It's Elijah. Elijah Brandon Night, your father's name was Erik Brandon Night. Our family crest is wisteria a flower that's said to keep demons, and dark spirts away. Your father died when you were ten you two were very close he taught you to fish, hunt and he taught you to be caring. In which even though you have no memories your still caring which shows just how much your character is." His mom said and pinched his cheeks and kissed him on the forehead." Now I must finish the soup we'll leave in the morning tomorrow dark is approaching fast. Just because you lost your memory doesn't mean you are free of chores now. Jake you and Elijah go chop some wood for the fire. Now. Shoo shoo. Go get," and with that, the mother shoved them out the door. When they were outside Jake showed him where the ax and firewood were and showed him how to cut the wood properly, then said, "while you do the wood I'll check the traps." By the time they came in dinner was done. The table was cluttered with food. Jake said, "Yep, that's mom when it looks like she's cooking something small it turns out to be a feast." They all sat down and ate more than their fair share of food. When dinner was done his mom said, "your bed is the top bun, I had to put you and your sister on the bottom one because you were too heavy for me. Goodnight sweetie pie. Sweet Dreams."It was morning they had eaten fried bacon and eggs for breakfast. His mom had called the doctor that morning to ask if he could get his memory back, but he'd said that he would have to check  Elijah out to see first. As they drove the two-hour long drive he started to wonder about his childhood. How his father had died, and why his mom was so upset.

When the general, nursing his bruised shoulder, had gone, Rainsford took up his flight again. It was flight now, a desperate, hopeless flight, that carried him on for some hours. Dusk came, then darkness, and still he pressed on. The ground grew softer under his moccasins; the vegetation grew ranker, denser; insects bit him savagely. Then, as he stepped forward, his foot sank into the ooze. He tried to wrench it back, but the muck sucked viciously at his foot as if it were a giant leech. With a violent effort, he tore his foot loose. He knew where he was now. Death Swamp and its quicksand.

Hey can someone please help me?
How do the gods react to the actions of Odysseus and the Greeks at the end of the War? Why do they react this way?

Answers

Explanation:

The Odyssey tells the story of a heroic but far from perfect protagonist who battles many antagonists, including his own inability to heed the gods’ warnings, on his arduous journey home from war. Along the way the poem explores ideas about fate, retribution, and the forces of civilization versus savagery. While The Odyssey is not told chronologically or from a single perspective, the poem is organized around a single goal: Odysseus’s return to his homeland of Ithaca, where he will defeat the rude suitors camped in his palace and reunite with his loyal wife, Penelope. Odysseus is motivated chiefly by his nostos, or desire for homecoming, a notion in heroic culture that encouraged bravery in war by reminding warriors of the people and institutions they were fighting for back home. Odysseus’s return represents the transition from life as a warrior on the battlefield back to life as a husband, father, and head of a household. Therefore, Odysseus is ultimately motivated by a desire to reclaim these elements of his identity and once again become the person he was before he left for the Trojan War so many years earlier.

The chief conflict in the poem is between Odysseus’s desire to reach home and the forces that keep him from his goal, a conflict that the narrator of the Odyssey spells out in the opening lines. This introductory section, called a proem, appeals to the Muse to inspire the story to follow. Here, the narrator names the subject of the poem—Odysseus—and his objective throughout the poem: “to save his life and bring his comrades home.” The narrator identifies the causes of Odysseus’s struggle to return home, naming both the sun god, Helios, and Odysseus’s fellow sailors themselves as responsible: “The recklessness of their own ways destroyed them all, the blind fools, they devoured the cattle of the sun and the sun god blotted out the day of their return.” The narrator next identifies Poseidon as one of Odysseus’s main antagonists, as all the gods took pity on Odysseus except Poseidon, who “raged on, seething against the great Odysseus until he reached his native land.” Finally, the proem tells us that the Odyssey will be the story of Odysseus’s successful journey home: “the exile must return!”

humans. The gods have given us this land to care for, and
we should use only what we need.
My eyes scanned the plains where I had hunted bison, the
creek where I had gotten water. They could no more take
this land from me than I could give it freely. It was never
mine to give, and I had never thought that I owned it. I used

The correction of the sentence must be done as follows:

You must add commas before the words "lights" and "and."This must be because the sentence is showing a sequence of things.The comma before the word "and" must be placed because this preposition is connecting two independent clauses.

It is important to point out that an independent clause is a clause that has full meaning, even if alone. Also, a preposition is a word that has the ability to link two clauses in a sentence.
