What is the author's intent by writing that the man's limitation is that he is without imagination?To build a fire​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The author means this man is limited and not practical in his understanding of things.

Explanation:

"To Build a Fire" is a short story by author Jack London. The main character is a man who ignores the wise words of an old man and decides to face nature on his own. He dies due to the freezing weather in the region of Yukon.

London does not seem to feel sorry for his character. He makes it clear that this man is "without imagination," and that this is precisely his limitation. This man does not go beyond the literal meaning of words. He does not understand them in a practical way. For instance, as is described in the quote below, he does not understand that a temperature is not just a number. It is a matter of life and death.

“The trouble with him was that he was without imagination. He was quick and alert in the things of life, but only in the things, and not in the significances. Fifty degrees below zero meant eighty-odd degrees of frost. Such fact impressed him as being cold and uncomfortable, and that was all. It did not lead him to meditate upon his frailty as a creature of temperature, and upon man's frailty in general, able only to live within certain narrow limits of heat and cold; and from there on it did not lead him to the conjectural field of immortality and man's place in the universe.”

My Father was a Farmer
Robert Burns

My Father was a Farmer
Sung to the tune of “The Weaver and his Shuttle, O.”

1My father was a farmer upon the Carrick border, O,
And carefully he bred me in decency and order, O;
He bade me act a manly part, though I had never a farthing, O;
For without an honest manly heart, no man was worth regarding, O.

2Then out into the world my course I did determine, O;
Tho’ to be rich was not my wish, yet to be great was charming, O:
My talents they were not the worst, nor yet my education, O;
Resolved was I, at least to try, to mend my situation, O.

3In many a way, and vain essay, I courted fortune’s favour, O;
Some cause unseen still stept between to frustrate each endeavour, O:
Sometimes by foes I was overpowered, sometimes by friends forsaken, O,
And when my hope was at the top, I still was worst mistaken, O.

4Then sore harassed, and tired at last, with fortune’s vain delusion, O,
I dropped my schemes, like idle dreams, and came to this conclusion, O:
The past was bad, and the future hid; its good or ill untried, O;
But the present hour, was in my power, and so I would enjoy it, O.

5No help, nor hope, nor view had I, nor person to befriend me, O;
So I must toil, and sweat and broil, and labour to sustain me, O:
To plough and sow, to reap and mow, my father bred me early, O;
For one, he said, to labour bred, was a match for fortune fairly, O.

6Thus all obscure, unknown, and poor, thro’ life I’m doomed to wander, O,
Till down my weary bones I lay in everlasting slumber, O.
No view nor care, but shun whatever might breed me pain or sorrow, O:
I live to-day as well’s I may regardless of to-morrow, O.

7But cheerful still, I am as well, as a monarch in a palace, O,
Tho’ Fortune’s frown still hunts me down with all her wonted malice, O:
I make indeed my daily bread, but never can make it farther, O;
But, as daily bread is all I need, I do not much regard her, O.

8When sometimes by my labour I earn a little money, O,
Some unforeseen misfortune comes generally upon me, O:
Mischance, mistake, or by neglect, or my good-natured folly, O;
But come what will, I’ve sworn it still, I’ll never be melancholy, O.

9All you who follow wealth and power, with unremitting ardour, O,
The more in this you look for bliss, you leave your view the farther, O:
Had you the wealth Potosi boasts, or nations to adorn you, O,
A cheerful honest-hearted clown I will prefer before you, O.

Dogs Make Life Great

Let’s face it, they don’t call dogs “man’s best friend” for nothing. They are sweet, they love us, and they do work for us. There is simply nothing better than a dog. If humans have learned to survive against saber-toothed predators, stampeding herds, and enduring famine, dogs have been right there. As Robin to our Batman, as Scooby Doo to our Shaggy, dogs have been there through thick and thin in our darkest hours. After all we've been through together, how could anyone disagree that dogs are the best pet any human could have?

First, we get massive health benefits from dogs. They calm us down when we are stressed. Countless service dogs are trained every year to go into nursing homes and other facilities to provide comfort to patients. These therapy dogs have been shown to lower blood pressure and calm distressed patients. Dogs also bring sweet, sweet bacteria into our homes. These bacteria help build our immune systems and make us healthier. Studies have shown that people with dogs get sick less often. In addition, growing up with a dog in your home may make you less prone to dog-related allergies as you grow up. Finally, because dogs need regular exercise, dog owners tend to be more fit than those who do not own dogs or own only cats.

Second, dogs just make us happier. New studies have found a lower rate of depression in dog owners. In part because dogs force their owners to be more active, it is likely that dog-owners just cannot stay cooped up at home all the time. This activity level also makes it easier to meet people, stay socially engaged, and feel a sense of belonging. They are dependable friends as well, always ready with a sympathetic ear, a soft belly to rub, and a willing smile. If your day seems like a version of the zombie apocalypse, ten minutes of playing fetch will certainly keep those zombies at bay until you can get back in the game.

Finally, it’s all about cute. Sure other pets can be cute, but consider tail wagging. What other animal has such a universally understood expression of joy? How can you not give into that sweet face, holding a stick, waiting patiently to be taken out to play? And if you have any doubts, you must not have seen a dog rolling on its back, tongue lolling about, head swishing back and forth, scooting first one way and then the next as if competing in a silly worm dance.

Many cat owners may argue with this position, but dogs really are the best companions. They bring joy, like a bluebird brings spring, or a rainbow brings a promise. They teach us about patience. They teach us about faith, waiting patiently—no matter how many times we leave without them—for that one time they get to load into the car and go with us. Always ready to go, always ready to wait longer, they make us hurry home at the end of the day for just a little unconditional love.

Read this sentence from the essay:

They teach us about faith, waiting patiently—no matter how many times we leave without them—for that one time they get to load into the car and go with us.

What is the main idea of this sentence?

Dogs are often left behind by humans.
Dogs are very impatient creatures.
Dogs show us qualities that we need to learn.
Dogs do not always get treated nicely by humans.

The main idea:

I know this is a bit much but may somebody please make me an essay about Martin Luther kings speech please (68 points)in your own words

Answers

Answer:

One of the most well known pieces of oratory of all time is Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech. This speech was written to persuade all Americans that all people are created equally. The use of allusion and exposition help in the overall effectiveness of this speech.

Martin's use of allusion to the Bible, a patriotic song, and the Declaration of Independence are used to attract people's sense of moral obligation to stay true to this equality. By using biblical references like “and the crooked place will be made straight” he appeals to the Christians. No Christian wants to be seen as a sinner so he told them that it is God’s will for people to live with equality and by saying this he adds validity to his point. In the same manner, he uses a patriotic song “My Country Tis’ of Thee”. He pleads one to listen to the sense of nationalism felt by most Americans. By quoting the commonly accepted patriotic song he makes an undeniable case for approvel of integration policy and universal equality. He also appeals to members of Congress and Americans who are tied to their roots by quoting the Declaration of Independence. The Declaration of Independence was the beginning of the American Revolution, which is a great moment in American history. By comparing that to that which was being experienced when he made the speech, King made his audience have a reasonable understanding. By using resources that are commonly approved most of the population, he made everyome feel a moral obligation to his cause through nationalism and Christianity.

The other method that Martin Luther King Jr. used to increase the effectiveness of the oratory is exposition. He uses examples what he went through and the lives of others to make his speech more available to any one person. King uses his own children as an example of racism. He says that his children should be judged upon their character and not upon their skin color. This statement is powerful to any parent. For King to talk about his own children adds a sense of emotion and makes his writing all the more effective in pursuading his peers. He also lists different mountains from which freedom should ring. This is in reference to his quote from “My Country Tis of Thee”. He lists the names of these mountains so thatwhoever is listening feels a personal connection too. Examples increase the personal response and cause people to act on their emotions.
