Summary of chapter 1 from mice and men

Answers


The story opens with the description of a riverbed in rural California, a beautiful, wooded area at the base of “golden foothill slopes.” A path runs to the river, used by boys going swimming and riffraff coming down from the highway. Two men walk along the path. The first, George, is small, wiry, and sharp-featured, while his companion, Lennie, is large and awkward. They are both dressed in denim, farmhand attire.

As they reach a clearing, Lennie stops to drink from the river, and George warns him not to drink too much or he will get sick, as he did the night before. As their conversation continues, it becomes clear that the larger man has a mild mental disability, and that his companion looks out for his safety. George begins to complain about the bus driver who dropped them off a long way from their intended destination—a ranch on which they are due to begin work. Lennie interrupts him to ask where they are going. His companion impatiently reminds him of their movements over the past few days, and then notices that Lennie is holding a dead mouse. George takes it away from him. Lennie insists that he is not responsible for killing the mouse, that he just wanted to pet it, but George loses his temper and throws it across the stream. George warns Lennie that they are going to work on a ranch, and that he must behave himself when they meet the boss. George does not want any trouble of the kind they encountered in Weed, the last place they worked.

George decides that they will stay in the clearing for the night, and as they prepare their bean supper, Lennie crosses the stream and recovers the mouse, only to have George find him out immediately and take the mouse away again. Apparently, Lennie’s Aunt Clara used to give him mice to pet, but he tends to “break” small creatures unintentionally when he shows his affection for them, killing them because he doesn’t know his own strength. As the two men sit down to eat, Lennie asks for ketchup. This request launches George into a long speech about Lennie’s ungratefulness. George complains that he could get along much better if he didn’t have to care for Lennie. He uses the incident that got them chased out of Weed as a case in point. Lennie, a lover of soft things, stroked the fabric of a girl’s dress, and would not let go. The locals assumed he assaulted her, and ran them out of town.

"Roger gathered a handful of stones and began to throw them. Yet there was a space round Henry, perhaps six yards in diameter, into which he dare not throw. Here, invisible yet strong, was the taboo of the old life."​ I need help with analysing this quote from lord of the flies.

Answers

Answer:

This section shows the loss of civilization and the beginning of wildness among the boys.

Explanation:

The passage shown above is a very important point in the narrative, which in addition to foreshadowing how Roger will become a cruel boy, shows how the concepts of civility are being suppressed by the eminent savagery that the environment provokes in these boys, especially in relation to the younger who start to develop a strong violence, cruelty and grandeur in the youngest. This can be seen when, in spite of his friends, Roger feels the right to torment Henry, the youngest boy and in the view of Roger more fragile and subordinate, which is the first indication of torture, dominance and manipulation that he will not only exercise in Henry, but in the other smaller and younger boys.

B is incorrect because although very formally the paragraphs have been bought together, this sentence here: (But she swallows over getting the ring on her finger, and cannot continue until she finds a woebegone joke.)

C is correct because Annie is crying, and she doesn't want to leave whatever place it is she doesn't want to leave. This piece is a sorrowful piece.

MY TEACHER WANTS TO CALL MY MOM HURRY!!! One theme in The Hobbit is that ordinary individuals can make extraordinary differences. Explain how this theme is illustrated in the episode in which Bilbo rescues the dwarves from the spiders. What traits help him achieve success? Describe another episode that illustrates this theme. Use evidence from the novel as support. Remember to use three of your module vocabulary words.

Answers

Answer:

TPR: The theme that ordinary characters can make extraordinary differences is illustrated in at least two episodes in The Hobbit because Bilbo repeatedly surprises both himself and the dwarves with his actions.

Introduction/background: About 100 pages into the novel, after wandering forever through a dark forest, Bilbo and the dwarves encounter ferocious spiders who have already dragged off the dwarves and one really ugly spider tries to attack Bilbo too.

Proof: However, Bilbo proves he can do great things. For example, even though he is partially wrapped in webbing, “Bilbo came at it before it could disappear and struck it with his sword right in the eyes” (109). Bilbo continues to defeat the spider and saves the dwarves.

Analysis: This shows how brave a little hobbit can be when he is pushed to his limits.

Introduction/background: Just a little later on in the story, the dwarves are captured by the Elves and Bilbo comes up with a plan for them to escape inside of barrels. As usual, the dwarves don’t believe in the hobbit.

Proof: For example, the dwarves all grumble, “We thought you had got some sensible notion, when you managed to get hold of the keys. This is a mad idea!”(124). However, Bilbo does convince the dwarves to try his plan and sure enough,they manage to escape.

Personal Explanation:

The authors decision to add many details to Babbitts situation (most likely) to help the reader gain more knowledge about how Babbitt thinks or how they see the world around them.

Astronauts needed to be able to bend and stoop to pick up samples on the Moon. Suits had to function both in microgravity and in the one-sixth gravny of th
surface. Furthermore, when walking on the Moon, Apollo astronauts needed the flexibility to roam freely without dragging a cumbersome combination oxyge
tether. A self-contained portable life-support system was needed.
The Apollo spacesuit began with a garment that used water as a coolant. The garment, similar to long johns but laced with a network of thin walled plastic

In "I Have a Dream," King refers to the promise of unalienable rights in the Declaration of Independence as "this sacred obligation." Later in the speech, he refers to the Declaration of Independence's famous phrase "all men are created equal" as a creed. Which answer choice best explains the effect King achieves by using the words sacred and ​​​​​​​creed? The words convey the importance of liberty and equality to the American nation and all its citizens. The words remind everyone in King's audience that he is a minister and therefore should be treated with respect. . The words emphasize the importance of the Declaration's text by equating it with the founding document of a religion The words suggest that King believes his audience needs to be reminded of the wording of the Declaration of Independence

Answers

Answer:

The answer choice that best explains the effect King achieves by using the words "sacred" and "creed" is:

C. The words emphasize the importance of the Declaration's text by equating it with the founding document of a religion.

Explanation:

In his famous speech "I Have a Dream," Dr. King uses the words "sacred" and "creed" when speaking of unalienable rights and equality. Both words are deeply related to faith and religion. Dr. King, a true master of rhetoric, is intelligently creating a connection that emphasizes the importance of the Declaration's text. By using such words, he is evoking in his audience the same sense of seriousness and respect they would have towards their religion and toward the Scriptures. He is making the Declaration sound as sanctified in its importance as the Bible.

With that in mind, we can safely choose letter C as the correct option: C. The words emphasize the importance of the Declaration's text by equating it with the founding document of a religion.

The option that explains the effect King achieves by using the words sacred and ​​​​​​​creed is C. The words emphasize the importance of the Declaration's text by equating it with the founding document of a religion.

It should be noted that the famous speech by Dr. King was to preach about equality, human rights, and how to make the United States great.

He used the words "sacred" and "creed" to simply illustrate unalienable rights and equality. The words are deeply related to faith and religion. By using the words, appealing to the emotions of the audience. The words emphasize the importance of the Declaration's text by equating it with the founding document of a religion.
