How does the author's choice to reveal the woman's blindness in the last paragraph contribute to the overall story?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

This question refers to the short story "The Mouse", by Saki.

The main character is Theodoric Voler, a man who has been raised in a most overprotected manner. He finds the world to be full of annoyances and disturbances.

The theme of this story revolves around Theodoric's self-centeredness. He is so busy worrying about himself, about his image in front of others, and about his comfort that he fails to notice and pay attention to other people's sufferings and misfortunes. That theme is developed at the climax of the story. It turns out that the woman who is sharing the train carriage with Theodoric is blind. He had been utterly embarrassed throughout their trip because he needed to half undress in order to get rid of a mouse that was crawling under his clothes.

Theodoric suffered terribly, to the point of shivering, imagining what that woman could be thinking of him. Too concerned about his own petty problems, he failed to realize her blindness. The author only reveals her blindness at the end of the story, which means readers have suffered all the while with Theodoric, wondering what that woman's reaction would be. By being told about her blindness in the last paragraph, readers are left surprised and maybe even a bit upset at Theodoric and all his unnecessary worry.

what was one thing that was very important to colonists during the time of the Stamp Act?

Answers

Answer:

Instead of levying a duty on trade goods, the Stamp Act imposed a direct tax on the colonists. Specifically, the act required that, starting in the fall of 1765, legal documents and printed materials must bear a tax stamp provided by commissioned distributors who would collect the tax in exchange for the stamp.

In an effort to raise funds to pay off debts and defend the vast new American territories won from the French in the Seven Years' War (1756-1763), the British government passes the Stamp Act on March 22, 1765.

How would the author of the Blast “True to Yourself” respond to the character of Stargirl? Use evidence from “True to Yourself” and the Stargirl excerpt in your response. Answer in the ACE format!

Answers

Answer:

Stargirl is the most "manic pixie dream girl" who ever pixie-dreamgirl-ed. She's practically the prototype. She's the Alpha and Omega of the cliche, coined by critic Nathan Rabin in his review of 2005's "Elizabethtown." Stargirl dresses eccentrically, she carries around a ukulele, and her pet rat lives in her knapsack. She drifts above the rituals and pressures of high school, communing on a higher and much wiser plane. She exists in order to change the lives of others for the better. As seen through the eyes of Leo, a shy kid who only wants to fit in, she is nothing less than a Magical Creature. He believes she can actually make it rain. And maybe she can. There's something uncanny about Stargirl.

Use ACTIVE to find three questions on the shorts story “up the slide”

Answers

All of these are informed by London's adventurous life, which included stints as a sailor and as a gold prospector in the Klondike region of Alaska, where there was a Gold Rush in the 1890s: the setting of ''Up the Slide''.

We know a few important things about the main character, Clay Dilham: he's young (seventeen) and arrogant. He's traveling with a man named Swanson to the village of Dawson to pick up mail. They've camped for the night when Clay boasts he'll be able to return with a sled full of firewood in just 30 minutes. This young whippersnapper is quite proud that he noticed a dead tree other travelers had overlooked. The only problem? It's high up on Moosehead Mountain, on a steep slide, or rock face, covered in snow.

No biggie, Clay thinks to himself. He knows the frozen river is below the tree and thinks that if he chops it down so it falls on the ice, the trunk will shatter into pieces: firewood ready-to-go. The older, more experienced Swanson just laughs at Clay's boldness. We have the sneaking suspicion that the opening of the story is a sign things won't turn out as planned, that this foreshadows, warning or indication, challenges to come.

Conflict: Man vs. Nature
As soon as Clay begins making his way up the slide, he realizes it's much steeper than he thought, and he regrets wearing slick-soled walrus-skin moccasins instead of more rugged footwear. He reaches a patch of snow-covered grass and keeps slipping on it. The only way he can make it through is by digging his bare hand into the snow and frozen dirt to slowly pull himself up. Finally, he makes it up to his tree, and chopping it down turns out to be the easiest part of the whole ordeal.

Clay looks at the way he came up the slide and realizes he'll just keep slipping and falling if he tries to climb back down. He starts to feel tired, but realizes if he stops moving, he'll freeze in the 30-below weather. Clay has underestimated some of the challenges nature can present and overestimated his ability to handle them. This makes ''Up the Slide'' a classic example of the literary conflict called man vs. nature.

What is the effect of the story's point of view? a first-person narrator like Mrs. Mallard can demonstrate how her opinion changes with her observations. a first-person narrator allows the reader to experience the emotions and feelings Mrs. Mallard is feeling. a third-person omniscient narrator can guide readers through Mrs. Mallard's changing emotions by describing her transition. a third-person limited narrator allows readers to observe only the outward physical response of Mrs. Mallard as she reacts to the events of the story.

Answers

Answer:

A third-person omniscient narrator can guide readers through Mrs. Mallard's changing emotions by describing her transition.

Explanation:

A third-person omniscient narrator/ narrative voice is the point of view from an uninvolved character narrating the sequence of the story. This point of view allows the narrator to present the characters and their feelings without being a part of the story.

In Kate Chopin's "Story of an Hour", the third person omniscient narrator gives us access to the feelings and emotions of Mrs. Mallard. At the same time, we are also guided through her changing emotions and transitions.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Which statement is the best summary of "The Machine Stops"?

A son's desire to explore has inspired his mother to seek new

adventures beyond the security of her room.

B. A mother's conversation with her son reveals that an

overdependence on technology suppresses creative

thought.

С. An exchange between a mother and son reveals the new

and creative ways that technology is being used to

enhance daily routines.

D. Face-to-face communication is criticized as outdated,

because it is much more convenient to use machines to

interact with family members.

Answer:

B. A mother's conversation with her son reveals that an overdependence on technology suppresses creative thought.

Explanation:

The book "The Machine Stops" is about a future where machines are in charge of every facet of human life.

Two characters in the book Vashti and her son Kuno who are inhabitants of this new world. Kuno somehow manages to get to the surface outside of the influence of the machines and he tells his mother how the surface is and how the machines can't rule them forever.

As the novel goes on, there are different instances of where over-reliance on the machines limits creative thought because the machine does everything for them. There was a case study of a man that did not know how to pick a book that had fallen from his hands because there was no nearby machine to do it for him.

Answers

Answer:

5. climatic

Explanation:

Arranging things in a sequence, where each things precedes or succedes another is called ordering. Ordering can be done in several ways, depending on ordering criteria.

For example, we can arrange events chronologically, which means we arrange them based on the time period when they occured; from the most to the least recent event, or vice versa.

Spatial arrangement means that we list things based on their position in space; from right to left, or from top to bottom.

Logical order is when we place things in a manner that each one logically follows the previous.

However, in this example, we have climatic order, which means that things are arranged in an order from the least important to the most important, making the final thing on the list the most important, or strongest, or the best.

climatic

Read the excerpt from "The New Marvel in Photography" by H. J. W. Dam.

In all the history of scientific discovery there has never been, perhaps, so general, rapid, and dramatic an effect wrought on the scientific centres of Europe as has followed, in the past four weeks, upon an announcement made to the Würzburg Physico-Medical Society, at their December meeting, by Professor William Konrad Röntgen, professor of physics at the Royal University of Würzburg. The first news which reached London was by telegraph from Vienna to the effect that a Professor Röntgen, until then the possessor of only a local fame in the town mentioned, had discovered a new kind of light, which penetrated and photographed through everything. This news was received with a mild interest, some amusement, and much incredulity; and a week passed. Then, by mail and telegraph, came daily clear indications of the stir which the discovery was making in all the great line of universities between Vienna and Berlin. Then Röntgen's own report arrived, so cool, so business-like, and so truly scientific in character, that it left no doubt either of the truth or of the great importance of the preceding reports. . . .

Exactly what kind of a force Professor Röntgen has discovered he does not know. As will be seen below, he declines to call it a new kind of light, or a new form of electricity. He has given it the name of the X rays.
