Summarize the story Vera tells Mr. Nuttel which she says happened three years ago.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Vera tells the central character, Frampton Nuttel, that three years ago a great tragedy occurred in their family. According to Vera, Mrs. Sappleton's husband and two younger brothers set out for a day of shooting, and did not return. It was concluded that the three, along with their little spaniel, were engulfed in the treacherous bog; their bodies were never found. Vera tells Framton that her aunt, Mrs. Sappleton, speaks frequently about the day the three men and the dog purportedly met their demise, leaving the window through which they exited that day open, as if in expectation of their return. As Vera and Framton sit there by the open window, Vera shudders and tells the visitor that on "quiet evenings like this," she still gets a "creepy feeling that they will all walk in through the window."

Mrs. Sappleton comes in at this point, and, as expected, talks about her husband and brothers, whom she says have gone shooting but will be home soon, coming through the window as is their habit. Framton, who is in a delicate mental state, believes, because of what Vera has told him, that the men in question are dead, and that Mrs. Sappleton is delusional. Disturbed by the ghastly situation, Framton becomes completely unnerved when Mr. Sappleton, the two other men, and the spaniel do indeed appear at the window, and he bolts off in terror. Vera, of course, has misled Framton for her own amusement, and when the family wonders why their visitor has left so pricipitously, she dissembles further, saying that he was most likely afraid of the dog.

The author intends for the reader to reflect further upon the husband's inner life and emotions.

Explanation:

The text presents a man who receives a romantic and very sentimental letter from a young woman who loved him. This young woman died and this man was married to another woman, who does not seem to have the same emotion towards him. The last paragraph reveals that the man is sorry for not having had a romance with the author of the letter who seemed to truly love him. For this reason, he lets out sighs of memories, making the reader reflect on his previous life and the emotions he had.

The afternoon was intensely interesting to her. The excitement came back upon her like a remittent fever. Her talk grew familiar and confidential. It was no labor to become intimate with Arobin. His manner invited easy confidence. The preliminary stage of becoming acquainted was one which he always endeavored to ignore when a pretty and engaging woman was concerned.
Which best describes the narrative voice in the excerpt?
The author uses a character in the story as a narrator to illustrate Arobin’s winning personality.
The author uses a character in the story as a narrator to reveal Edna’s discomfort with the conversation.
The author uses an omniscient narrator to reveal the thoughts and motivations of both characters.
The author uses an omniscient narrator to provide background information about Arobin’s previous marriage.

Answers

Answer:

The author uses an omniscient narrator to reveal the thoughts and motivations of both characters.

Explanation:

Kate Chopin's novel "The Awakening" revolves around the character of Edna Pontellier and her struggle to be sexually and emotionally free from the constraints of society and what is expected of her. The story deals with themes of gender, with how women are perceived to be at home and Edna's desire for freedom to do whatever she wants and to enjoy, have fun in her life.

In the given passage from the text, the narrator is an omniscient voice that the author used to reveal the thoughts and feelings of the characters in the scene. This allows the readers an insight into what each character feels and makes the story have multiple windows from which one can view the events. The narrator presents both Edna's thoughts as well as Arobin's.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Answer:

It's option C. 'The author uses an omniscient narrator to reveal the thoughts and motivations of both characters.'

He means that he did not falsify nature, but introduced animals that acted on instinct, just like in real life.

Explanation:

London says that the animals in their stories are not humanized, they do not have the human capacity to reason, to think about the consequences, advantages and disadvantages of their actions. On the contrary, the animals in his stories, act completely on impulse, without the need for reasoning and caution. This is a way of being true to nature and not putting a human responsibility on animals, as some works approach. He states that when he writes in this way he criticizes the humanization of animals, that is, he criticizes the unrealistic and dishonest representation about humanity.

The Whippoorwill
by Madison Julius Cawein

I.

Above lone woodland ways that led
To dells the stealthy twilights tread
The west was hot geranium red;
And still, and still,
Along old lanes the locusts sow
With clustered pearls the Maytimes know,
Deep in the crimson afterglow,
We heard the homeward cattle low,
And then the far-off, far-off woe
Of "whippoorwill!" of "whippoorwill!"

II.

Beneath the idle beechen boughs
We heard the far bells of the cows
Come slowly jangling towards the house;
And still, and still,
Beyond the light that would not die
Out of the scarlet-haunted sky;
Beyond the evening-star's white eye
Of glittering chalcedony,
Drained out of dusk the plaintive cry
Of "whippoorwill," of "whippoorwill."

III.

And in the city oft, when swims
The pale moon o'er the smoke that dims
Its disc, I dream of wildwood limbs;
And still, and still,
I seem to hear, where shadows grope
Mid ferns and flowers that dewdrops rope,
Lost in faint deeps of heliotrope
Above the clover-sweetened slope,
Retreat, despairing, past all hope,
The whippoorwill, the whippoorwill.

plz answer fast Writing prompt: Write an argumentative essay for or against maintaining traditional coming-of-age ceremonies, such as a bar mitzvah or a quinceañera ( im doing a quinceañera) this for pre writing btw

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

My argument is to support the organization of traditional events.

One of the most important characteristics of different cultures in our country is that every one of them has peculiar and interesting ceremonies that are part of their identity as a culture.

Ceremonies are ways to preserve traditions, probably ancestral traditions that give sense to family values and strengthen the identity of the culture and its people.

The ceremony called "Quinceañera" is 100% Mexican tradition. It is so important in Mexican families that it can be considered one of the most important in every Mexican family that has daughters.

Quinceañerqa is the opportunity for the family to present before the members of society, its beautiful girl that is leaving childhood and entering adulthood. As they say in México, "she is turning from girl to woman."

Quinceñera in México is THE ceremony. Parents organize a mass service in the church, then invite family and friends to the "Dance" party.

It is a traditional moment that defines the Mexican family culture in this culture.

Answer:

Here is my complete 5 paragraph essay on this exact prompt. This has been revised and ready to be used! No need to put this in your own words, either. (:

Explanation:

Do you have any traditional coming-of-age ceremonies, such as a bar mitzvah or a quinceañera? Well good for you! I believe we should maintain these beautiful traditions for many reasons. They can be fun, and especially awarding; how accomplishing it would feel to know that you have completed a large step in life! But let’s talk about some of the traditions and what they are.

First, what’s a bar mitzvah? It is the religious initiation ritual of a Jewish boy who has passed the age of 13 and is considered able to follow religious precepts and qualified to take part in public worship. And widely celebrated by Latinos, the quinceañera represents a significant landmark in the life of a girl. Part birthday celebration, part rite of passage, it symbolizes a girl's entry into womanhood as she turns 15.

Now we can discuss why we should always maintain them. First of all, they are quite significant. They have great significance behind them. Growing up is a very important part of life, which is what these traditions honor. And these events can be enjoyable, and they can be especially accomplishing. But there's another justification for this as well.

Secondly, these cultural traditions are very beautiful. For example, the quinceañera is a very pretty thing to see, because they find very beautiful dresses and outfits to wear, and the bar/bat mitzvah with the fancy Torah scroll! However, although the quinceañera is a pretty sight to see, I do believe the meaning of it is quite peculiar. Apparently, the point is to celebrate going into womanhood, and the readiness of marriage. But I do believe that 15 is too young to be considered a grown woman and be ready for marriage. But as long as they don’t rush the girl that is being celebrated into all of that, I do believe the tradition should be continued.

In conclusion, I agree that these cultural traditions can endure as long as the boys and girls who are celebrated do not hurry into activities that are more suitable for older individuals, such as the quinceañera and the readiness to marry. So what do you make of that? Do you agree these traditions are worth maintaining?

pre- Before Question 1 What word would I get if I added the base word "create" to the suffix -tion? (turning the verb into a noun)​

Answers

Answer:

creation

Explanation:

A "suffix" is an affix that is being placed at the end of a word. Adding it to a word results to a new word. For example, the base word "create" is a verb, which means to make, produce fabricate and so on. If the suffix, "tion," will be added to it, the word will become "creation," which is a noun. Creation refers to the process of making something or it could also mean something that was made or produced.
