english help..
Gucchi:
am i right with A? or is it B? im so confused here
Gucchi:
@jazzwill what you think?
sloganEatsWorlds:
bruh its b
sloganEatsWorlds:
why would it be a
sloganEatsWorlds:
it's b because the narrator is saying that his thoughts are as slow as a snail moves and b says that he is having a hard time thinking
sloganEatsWorlds:
ez
Gucchi:
sloganEatsWorlds:
i just said bruh💀
Gucchi:
sloganEatsWorlds:
no it dosnt
sloganEatsWorlds:
bruh
sloganEatsWorlds:
how does a make sense
sloganEatsWorlds:
how
sloganEatsWorlds:
it makes more sense to say b because it says he's thinking at a snails pace, and b says the narrator is having a hard time thinking.
sloganEatsWorlds:
they correspond almost perfectly
sloganEatsWorlds:
i cant even think of how A would be right
JazzWill:
hes not having difficulty thinking, his thoughts are slowing down
sloganEatsWorlds:
exactly
MidniteSunny:
The point of the sentence is that the cold is affecting the narrator. They're describing that effect on them. There is no evidence that the narrator is taking steps toward anything. All we know is of the cold and how it is affecting the narrator's brain, thus making the correct answer B. "slowing my thoughts to a snail's pace" means having a difficult time thinking-
sloganEatsWorlds:
EXACTLY
sloganEatsWorlds:
thank you
Gucchi:

KoWoNo:
"stahp"
JazzWill:
it doesnt mean literal steps, and nowhere does it say that they are having a difficult time. all its saying is that his/her thoughts are slowing not that they are having a hard time thinking
sloganEatsWorlds:
thats practically the same thing bruh
sloganEatsWorlds:
obviously it dosnt mean literall steps
sloganEatsWorlds:
but B makes more sense
JazzWill:
dude, im 18 and in college, I think i know what im talking about. its not b
sloganEatsWorlds:
but explain how it's A
KoWoNo:
MidniteSunny:
Attacking the way I speak is irrelevant, kowono. Also, slowing down one's thoughts is literally having a hard time thinking. Think about when someone says they're "slow." They don't mean they take extreme care with their thinking, they mean their thought process is slow. Additionally, both A and B would be metaphors. B doesn't take anything literally about the bolded text.
freshavacado850:
"Slowing my thoughts to a snails pace" means that the narrator's thoughts are moving extremely slowly. This could be because the narrator is very cold and his body is trying to conserve energy, or it could be because they are very upset. Either way, the narrator is saying that they are having a difficult time thinking clearly and rationally due to the cold or their emotions.
Gucchi:
why would the author have a difficult time thinking writing a sentence
sloganEatsWorlds:
Gucchi:
"slowing my thoughts to a snails pace" is him speaking carefully
MidniteSunny:
JazzWill:
did u submit it yet?
Gucchi:
@joe348 HELP ME BROTHER
sloganEatsWorlds:
sloganEatsWorlds:
bruh joe writing an essay
Gucchi:
sloganEatsWorlds:
im not gonna read it bruh
sloganEatsWorlds:
its a whole essay
freshavacado850:
I think yall are overthinking this, yall are making an easy questions harder than it has to be
Gucchi:
JazzWill:
Gucchi:
you were literally no help here
Gucchi:
off my question jit
MidniteSunny:
Shall we take into account the overall tone of the sentence as well? The sentence is negative. The narrator is literally complaining about how cold it is. B would be adding onto the complaint, adding a reason to be complaining about the cold in the first place- because it's slowing their thinking.
Gucchi:
JazzWill:
its not the whole sentence,its just whats in bold
MidniteSunny:
Yes but in order to understand the bolded words, you need the context of the full sentence, otherwise the first part of the sentence wouldn't have been provided.
Gucchi:
sloganEatsWorlds:
just chose one and tell us what the right one was please bruh
Gucchi:
they don't see that.
Joe348:
In my opinion, I would say A because B doesn't clarify if he was having a difficult time because of the cold... it just says how the cold affects him. Slowing your thoughts basically means you would take time to carefully process, so I would say A but there's no way of knowing until you choose the answer
Gucchi:
sloganEatsWorlds:
THANK YOU JOE
JazzWill:

Gucchi:
LEARN FROM THIS PLEASE
freshavacado850:

Joe348:
Don't think about the first part of the quote, just everything in bold. The narrator uses a metaphor to show that he's processing his following steps very slowly at a snail's pace
