Why do you suppose the author had Florence die before Antonio and Cico can tell him about the Golden Carp?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The author did this to reinforce Florence's lack of faith and religiosity.

Explanation:

Although you have not presented the book this question refers to, we can assume, through the context of the question above, that you are referring to the book "Bless Me, Ultima" which tells the story of how Antonio Marez, a Mexican boy, raised in an extremely Catholic home, struggles to discover his identity and religiosity, even in the midst of a strong family influence.

Within this story, when Antonio and Cico find a golden carp and decide to show it to Florence, they aim to show Florence a god who is not vindictive and punitive, as they see the golden carp as a deity. Meanwhile Florence drowns before Antonio and Cico tell him about the golden carp. The author decides to do this, to highlight Florence's lack of faith and religion, showing that the golden carp would make no difference to him.

excerpt from Frankenstein by Mary Shelley

from Chapter 5 (narration by Victor Frankenstein):

…my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs. How can I describe my emotions at this catastrophe, or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care I had endeavoured to form? I had worked hard for nearly two years, for the sole purpose of infusing life into an inanimate body. For this I had deprived myself of rest and health. I had desired it with an ardour that far exceeded moderation; but now that I had finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart.

from Chapter 11 (narration by the creature):

It is with considerable difficulty that I remember the original era of my being; all the events of that period appear confused and indistinct. A strange multiplicity of sensations seized me, and I saw, felt, heard, and smelt at the same time; and it was, indeed, a long time before I learned to distinguish between the operations of my various senses…. I was a poor, helpless, miserable wretch; I knew, and could distinguish, nothing; but feeling pain invade me on all sides, I sat down and wept.

In her novel Frankenstein, Mary Shelley shifts from narration by Victor Frankenstein in the first chapters to narration by the creature he created.

What effect does this structure have?


A. It speeds up the pacing by encouraging the reader to rush from one perspective to the other.

B. It adds foreshadowing by showing that the creature is confused and in pain.

C. It brings the creature to life for the reader and contrasts his feelings with those of Victor.


D. It creates surprise by showing that the creature feels the same way as Victor.

Answers

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

It might also be B.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The phrase "The beauty of the dream," in the first paragraph. It means that the charater is dreaming, and it is not real.

In the second paragraph, you will see what the author says, " A strange multiplicity of sensations seized me, and I saw, felt, heard, and smelt at the same time; and it was, indeed, a long time before I learned to distinguish between the operations of my various senses." It means that the charater in the story dreams is turning into real life.

"I went to my room and sat on my
bed, staring at the little white envelope that my dad had given me the night
before. It had seemed so incongruous then, just a silly note my dad had
passed to me while I was trying to fall asleep. But now it seemed more
important, in a way. He was on a crazy adventure-what if he didn't come
back? This was a possibility I had not considered at all in the months and
years leading up to his launch, but now it hit me in a very real way." Why
might the author have used the verb "hit" here?
A. to imply that Jason should have treated his dad with more kindness in the months
and years leading up to the launch
B. to hint that Jason's dad is unlikely to return from his "crazy adventure"
C. to convey the force and suddenness of Jason's realization that his dad might not
come back
D. to suggest that Jason slaps his hand on his forehead when he realizes that his dad

ignment UEE compiled on Dynamics (2003-2011)
Which one of the following statements is true about action and reaction forces
Newton's third?(UEE:2003)law of motion
A. They act up on the same body.
B. They are equal in magnitude but need not have the same line of action.
C. They act up on two different bodies.
D. They are not equal in magnituue vut have the same line of action.​

Answers

Answer:

C. They act up on two different bodies.

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Action-reaction force pairs make it possible for fishes to swim, birds to fly, cars to move etc.

For example, while driving down the road, a firefly strikes the windshield of a car (Action) and makes a quite obvious mess in front of the face of the driver (Reaction) i.e the firefly hit the car and the car hits the firefly.

The ultimately implies that, in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on two different interacting objects or bodies.

Hence, the statement which is true about action and reaction forces with respect to Newton's third law of motion is that they act up on two different bodies.

In conclusion, action-reaction force pairs are characterized by the following statements;

I. They act up on two different bodies.

II. The forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.

III. The forces are the same type such as magnetic force, contact force or gravitational force.

Answer:

C. They act up on two different bodies.

These lines are written in which meter?
O 1. iambic trimeter
2. iambic pentameter
3. iambic octameter
4. iambic hexameter

Answers

Answer:iambic pentameter

Explanation:

The lines written in Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare are in iambic pentameter. So, option (2) is the correct answer.

What is Iambic pentameter?

In classic English poetry and verse play, an iambic pentameter is a form of a metric line. The rhythm, or meter, established by the words in that line is referred to as the term.

Rhythm is measured in "feet," which are little clusters of syllables. The term "iambic" relates to the type of foot employed, in this case, the "iamb," which signifies an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable in English. A line of five "feet" is referred to as "pentameter."

The most popular meter in English poetry is iambic pentameter, which is employed in both early and later forms of the language.

In his plays and sonnets, William Shakespeare utilized iambic pentameter, as did Wallace Stevens in the twentieth century.

Which phrase uses the rhetorical device pathos?

That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it. To institute a new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to most likely affect their safety and happiness. Prudence will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly, all experience hath shown, that mankind is more disposed to suffer, while injustices are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
