Answers

Answer:

It shares the detail that the war lasted four years.

Explanation:

The first paragraph of The Dark Game best supports the idea that the Civil War was a long war by sharing details that it lasted for about four years.

The author of The Dark Game makes an elaborate and detailed duration of the war which is four years and he also noted that the people did not expect the war to be as long as four years as it brought to them untold hardship and suffering.

A.)It shares the detail that the war lasted four years

Explanation:

Analyze the various characters in the story. List which character types—dynamic, round, static, and flat—you observed in the story. Cite evidence to support your response. From the story "The Gift of the Magi"

Answers

Answer:

There were three main characters in this story.

Della Dillingham Young (dynamic)

James Dillingham Young (dynamic/ static)

Madame Sofronie (flat)

Explanation:

Della was a dynamic character throughout the story because she was always up for the help, support, care and sacrifice. She can handle and change according to the situation. She sold her hairs to buy gift to her husband.

James was a static character in start because change was not his thing but when he had no money for gift, he decided to sell his precious thing just make his wife happy by giving her gift so it was also his dynamic side. So, James was both dynamic and static.

Madame Sofronie was a flat business woman who had no concern what Della is going through or what hairs meant to her. She didn't even look properly and told Della the price.  So, madame Sofronie was a flat, emotionless, harsh business woman.

The two major characters are Della and Jim. There is one minor character, which is Mrs. Sofronie. Let's analyze them:

1. Della is a dynamic character because she experiences change and growth throughout the story. She sacrifices what she loves the most about herself - her hair - to buy a Christmas gift for her beloved husband (external conflict). She suffers to make such a decision (internal conflict), but goes through with it.

On the other hand, she is also a flat character when it comes to her personality. All we know about her is that she loves Jim dearly. Nothing else is developed, we do not see any other sides or facets of her personality.

2. Jim is a bit more complicated and open to interpretation because he only appears at the end of the story. However, we can tell that, just like his wife, he probably went through the same struggle. He too sacrificed his valuable watch to buy her a gift. We can assume that he, too, is a dynamic character.

Again, just like Della, we can say Jim is a flat character. His personality is not developed, especially because he barely appears in the story.

3. Mrs. Sofronie is a flat and static stock character. That means she is not developed at all. She only appears to help the plot move forward by buying Della's hair.

This question refers to the short story "The Gift of the Magi," by American author O. Henry (1862-1910).The main characters are husband and wife, Jim and Della.They both sacrifice their most valuable possessions to buy each other Christmas gifts.Jim sells his watch to buy Della beautiful combs for her hair.Della sells her hair to buy Jim a beautiful watch chain.In the end, their gifts are useless. Della can't wear the combs, and Jim can't wear the chain.However, they prove their deep love for each other through this sacrifice.

That night, Neto, Jesse, and another teammate walked into the coach's office and handed him their uniforms and pads. They explained why they were leaving and expected him to understand, but they were disappointed. "The coach said, 'Quitting will just make it worse,'" Neto remembers.

b. Neto is fully committed to putting an end to the racist comments coming from the fans.
c. Neto realizes that there is no way of preventing the fans from making racist comments.
d. Neto realizes that quitting the football team is not an effective way of taking a stand against racism.

The statement that best describes the change in Neto since the beginning of the story is that Neto realizes that quitting the football team is not an effective way of taking a stand against racism.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Do you agree or disagree with this point of view?

I disagree with this point of view.

Find evidence from the story to support or refute the student's claim. In your response, clarify why you agree or disagree with the student's thoughts.

Ravi is a character in the short story "Games at Twilight", by Anita Desai. He and his siblings are playing hide-and-seek when he decides to hide in the shed where old furniture and broken things are kept. Ravi is excited about the idea of winning the game. He is motivated by picturing himself as a champion who got to win over older, smarter kids. After hiding for hours, he comes out and runs to the "den" to become the desperate winner of a game that had been long over. His siblings had forgotten about him.

Upon this awful realization, Ravi feels completely isolated. He is obviously a young child who is still insecure about his place in the world. That's why he is so desperate to win - to prove something to himself and others. But the fact that he was forgotten is utterly disappointing and hurtful. He does not feel included; he does not want to be included anymore:

And the arc of thin arms trembled in the twilight, and the heads were bowed so sadly, and their feet tramped to that melancholy refrain so mournfully, so helplessly, that Ravi could not bear it. He would not follow them, he would not be included in this funereal game. He had wanted victory and triumph—not a funeral. But he had been forgotten, left out, and he would not join them now. The ignominy of being forgotten—how could he face it? He felt his heart go heavy and ache inside him unbearably. He lay down full length on the damp grass, crushing his face into it, no longer crying, silenced by a terrible sense of his insignificance.

Which sentence in this excerpt from eleanor Roosevelt's speech "what libraries mean to the nation" is an example of the rhetorical strategy of pathos

Answers

Answer:

"The children in the district are so poor and some of them so pathetic that ...........the children, and, even more, to help the whole community to learn to live through their minds."

Explanation:

Pathos(appeal to emotion) is characterized as one of the three persuasive or rhetorical devices(as stated by Aristotle) that aims to persuade the audience by appealing to their emotions.

In the given excerpt from Roosevelt's speech titled 'what libraries mean to the nation', the sentence 'the children...minds' exemplifies the use of pathos as it employs descriptive words and phrases to display the condition of poor children like 'so poor, so pathetic, struggle to live, feeling right there, etc.' that elicits the emotions of pity, grief, and sympathy in the audience. The audience is able to emotionally connect themselves to the condition of poor children and accept the speaker's claim that education is the only source to make their lives better.

Answer:

The children in the district are so poor and some of them so pathetic that I suppose the struggle to live has been so great you could not think much about what you fed the mind, but I came away feeling that right there, in one of the biggest and richest states in the country, we had a big area that needed books and needed libraries to help these schools in the education of the children, and, even more, to help the whole community to learn to live through their minds.
