2. Analyze the development of a complex character in an episode of a television show or movie you've

seen. In your analysis, focus on at least one interaction this character has with another character, his or

her role in the plot, and his or her character arc. Be sure to introduce your ideas, use precise language

and specific examples from the movie or television episode, and end the response with a concluding

statement

Answers

Answer:

Movie Chosen: Split

Character: Casey

Explanation:

Personally, I think Casey is a great character to be analyzed. She has been through a lot throughout her life, and we can see her evolution and history throughout the development of the movie.

The interactions with the other characters are carried out with great intelligence and delicacy. For example, she tries to help her friends but from her wisdom, trying to advise them on what to do in relation to their kidnapper. Unfortunately her friends do not follow her advice and have a tragic end.

Casey, however, handles her relationship with her kidnapper as if he were "an animal". Recall that Casey spent her entire childhood hunting in the woods for which she has experience with "the beasts." She knows how to deal with her kidnapper and is smart, allowing her to survive.

In turn, Casey has gone through situations of physical and psychological abuse by her uncle. She can sense that Kevin has been through a similar situation, which gives her an advantage in knowing the things she should and should not do.

In conclusion, Casey's development from a girl who does not try to defend herself from her kidnapper as her friends do, to the revelation of her story and why it was more convenient for her to be quiet to survive, makes her a great character.

Imagine that your class has decided to stage a folk dance show titled, ‘Colours of life’ in the school auditorium. Make a poster for this event. Put in all the necessary details.

Answers

The poster will be made in colors that attract people's attention. That way they will be curious about the flashy ad and try to find out what the poster is advertising. In this case, we will use colors like red, orange, black and royal blue. In the background we use embarrassed and paler images (making a kind of transition) of characters in poses that refer to folk dances, thus relating the poster to the theme of the presentation.

At the top of the poster, the phrase "Folkloric dance demonstration event" will be written centrally and using capital letters, then the place where the event will be held and the date of the event will be written.

In the center of the poster, in a centralized form and using capital letters in large size will be written ‘Colors of life’, the name of the event.

At the bottom of the poster, using lower case letters, will have information about the event organizers and how to participate in the event.

Explain how the story “We Wear The Mask” shows that it is difficult to understand other people? Evidence

I will give you 45 points please

Answers

Answer:

It is difficult to understand other people because they may hide their emotions to avoid being criticized or maltreated.

The poem says “We wear the mask that grins and lies, it hides our cheeks and shades our eyes”

This shows their treatment in a white society.

The mask, which represents the false emotions a person might "wear" in front of other people, both smiles and lies—which indicates that the outward appearance of the mask does not match the true emotions that are beneath it. In other words, the people who wear this mask aren't smiling, and aren't happy.

can someone help me come up with a title for an essay about fitting into social groups in school?

Answers

Answer:

Fitting in is an important part of life because it has almost everything to do with turning out in life. Knowing the right people will directly affect a person’s life later on, job wise and high school reunions. Part of fitting in is rejection. This happens because when someone does not reject a particular person then they might be rejected for not rejecting that person. “… Waking up in the morning and wondering if anyone would really miss me.” this is a thought that might course through someone’s mind after being rejected. Most people respond differently, Some people might dress and act totally different just to try to “fit in” that way. Most will just forget about that group or single person. I have often observed that people often times try to find out why that person or group rejected them and try to make it better. Being rejected is like someone saying “You do not fit in with us so leave us alone” it’s a nasty feeling. Some people let others down easy and that is nice of them. Why is it so hard to fit in? There is so much social pressure now that it is getting harder and harder to “fit in”. When I say social pressure I mean how to act, look, sound, walk, and so on.

Answers

Answer:

The animals = proletarians

Explanation:

Animal farm symbolizes Russia and its Communist revolution. But a peculiar strenght of the book is that it represents all ideologies, be it socialist, liberal, capatalist, religious or otherwise. The power lies in showing that no matter in what ideology mankind believes (and Lenin really believed in his), we always end up in abusing the power we obtained. The analogy of the book is clear: the animals (working class people) remove the repressor, man, and by doing so ultimately fall for the same wealth & power that they once wanted to divide equally among the animals.

Can you please make 5 questions or can you write a summery aboat this??
Very often, we have small medical problems that aren't
serious enough to require a visit to the doctor's office.
We can often take care of problems such as a sore throat,
a stomachache, or a stuffy nose with over-the-counter
medicines available on drugstore shelves. However, many
people prefer to treat minor medical problems with home
remedies. These solutions vary from
country to country,
from family to family, and even from person to person.
For a sore throat, it's certainly easy to stop by a local
drugstore and pick up a pack of lozenges. But some
prefer to make special drinks, such as warm milk with
honey, or lemon juice and honey. Other people like to
gargle with warm salt water.
It is possible to treat stomachaches with antacids that
are available at local drugstores, but many people first
try drinking soda to settle their stomachs. Another more
natural remedy is peppermint tea.
In addition to the various cold medicines available,
many people
treat their colds by having a bowl of home-
made chicken soup. Others like to drink hot water with
lemon and honey before they go to bed.
Many books offer helpful suggestions for the treatment
of minor medical problems at home and provide useful
information about first aid procedure,
Modern medicine has progressed greatly in the past
few years, but there are still times when it's very
convenient to rely on good old home remedies.​

(in 5 sentences)

Answers

Answer:

Yes, I do agree.

Explanation:

in the past, great things have come from riots, usually from those who are minorities who did not have a voice (hence the language of the unheard). A few examples of this would be the Stonewall riots in 1969 that gave LGBTQ+ members a voice and the rights that they did not have. Another example would be Selma to Montgomery marches in 1965 that where to fight for black rights. It is evident right now with the Black Lives Matter movement to stop the oppression of black people in the United States.

c. You identified yourself as Alican American
on a legal document dating back at least 10 years.
d. Qualifications have not yet been determined ​

Answers

Answer:

B. You have at least one ancestor who was enslaved

Explanation:

From the 1865 Special Field Orders, the issue of reparation has been recurring in the politics of United States. The qualification has been set out that descendants of slaves should be given a sort of compensation.

So, it is seen that one who has an ancestor who was once a slave should be compensated for the experiences that ancestor passed through.

This idea of descendants of slaves qualified for reparation was also brought to public discourse after Ta-Nehisi Coates published his 2014 publication of "The Case For Reparations".
