George and Lennie have come to the ranch to buck barley. The author characterizes this type of work as
A. leading cattle to feed on horseback.
B. picking grain by hand individually.
C. filing a grain barn by machine.
D. heavy lifting done by teams of men.

D. heavy lifting done by teams of men.

Explanation:

George Milton and Lennie Small are characters in "Of Mice and Men" novel written by John Ernst Steinback Jr. George and Lennie are ranch workers who often move from one place to another during the Great Depression. Their migration was caused by the fact that they wanted to find several job opportunities in order to alleviate their situations. They also wanted to purchase their own land and settle down.

"To buck barley" in the statement above means "heavy lifting done by teams of men." In the story, George and Lennie would buck barley by throwing large bags of grain on a truck. Thus, they lifted the heavy bags of grains together in order to finish their task.

Thus, this explains the answer.

everyman: morality play

which phrase in this excerpt from the play everyman refers to god's judgment of people's souls after their death?

messenger: . .

ye think sin in the beginning full sweet,

which in( the end) causeth thy soul to weep,

when the body lieth in clay.

here shall you see how fellowship and jollity,

both strength, pleasure, and beauty,

will fade from thee as flower in may.

for ye shall hear, how our heavenly king

calleth everyman to a (general reckoning):

give audience, and hear what he doth say.

god: i perceive here in my majesty,

how that all the creatures be to me unkind,

living without dread in worldly prosperity:

of (ghostly sight) the people be so blind,

drowned in sin, they know me not for their god;

in worldly riches is all their mind,

they fear not( my righteousness), the sharp rod;

(my law that i shewed), when i for them die

hopefully this !
