how does wealth in The Great Gatsby relate today?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Despite being a commentary on a different age and people, Gatsby's story is as relevant today as it was when it was written. Because it explores universal themes --- human follies, the hopelessness of societal constructs and man's struggle with time and fate. Im sorry if this is not the answer you looking for, but its what i got :).

Writing Prompt: Write a response in which you describe two distinct themes, or central


ideas, in Of Plymouth Plantation. Cite evidence from the text to support your


understanding of these themes. In your response, include examples of rhetoric from the


text and explain how the use of rhetoric helps to support the themes.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

One of the main themes presented in "Of Plymouth Plantation" is God's providence for the faithful. This is because the text focuses so much on the difficulty that the pilgrims lived in America and how devastating it was for them, however, as puritan faithful to God, they saw these moments of difficulty as a divine ordeal to prove their faith in an all-powerful God. The author states that these difficulties increased people's faith and in the name of that faith, God provided victories for all of them. In these moments, the author shows a strong appeal to pathos, encouraging the sentimentality of the reader and showing faith and religiosity.

A second theme that can be observed is the European view on Native Americans. The author presents Native Americans as the main problems in America, and shows them as wild, uncivilized, filthy and creatures that are not human, but are similar to animals without any rationality. At this moment, the author makes a strong appeal to logos, showing logically, that beings who did not look or share his customs, could not be good people, like her.

“I broke the locket with a thick brick.” What rhetorical device is being used in this sentence?
A. Alliteration
B. Consonance
C. Onomatopoeia
D. Assonance

Answers

Answer:

B. Consonance

Explanation:

A is not right because alliteration is when the same first letter of words is used repeatedly. For example the slick snake slithered silently... often this is used for tongue twisters.

C is definitely not right because an Onomatopoeia is when you are using a word associated with a sound, like bang or squeak to name a few examples. There are no sounds in this sentence, therefore no onomatopoeias.

D is not right. Assonance is when the vowels of a series of words sound repetitive or similar. So in this case you have "with", "thick" and "brick" where the "i" in the words have a repetitive sound, however there are only three cases of this whereas there are 4 instances of B.

The answer is B because consonance is the repetition of consonant sounds, and you have 4 repetitive "k" sounds in this sentence. "broke" "locket" "thick" and "brick". While you may be able to argue that D could work, there are more examples of B in this sentence.

The rhetorical device that is being used in this sentence is B. Consonance

What is Consonance?

This refers to the repetition of similar consonants in closely related words that has different vowel sounds.

Hence, we can see that based on the given sentence, the words used have similar sounding consonants such as "thick brick" and are close together, hence, option B is correct.

Based on the excerpt from Harte's "The Outcasts of Poker Flat," how has the author used imagery to create the theme of hopelessness?

Answers

Hello. This question is incomplete, the complete question is:

The women slept but little. In the morning, looking into each other's

faces, they read their fate. Neither spoke; but Piney, accepting the position of the stronger, drew near and placed her arm around the Duchess's waist. They kept this attitude for the rest of the day. That night the storm reached its greatest fury, and, rending asunder the protecting pines, invaded the very hut.

Toward morning they found themselves unable to feed the fire, which gradually died away. As the embers slowly blackened, the Duchess crept closer to Piney, and broke the silence of many hours: "Piney, can you pray?" "No, dear," said Piney, simply. The Duchess, without knowing exactly why, felt relieved, and, putting her head upon Piney's shoulder, spoke no more. And so reclining, the younger and purer pillowing the head of her soiled sister upon her virgin breast, they fell asleep.

Based on the excerpt from Harte's "The Outcasts of Poker Flat," how has the author used imagery to create the theme of hopelessness?

Answer:

The author uses imagery to show how silence represents hopelessness among the characters.

Explanation:

Imagery is a figure of speech that aims to use words to sharpen one of the five senses of the reader, who can literally feel a strong element of the narrative that is essential for the narrated moment to be understandable. In the excerpt shown in the question above, we can see how the author used silence to express the hopelessness between the characters. The silence in the story is very punctual and even clarified by the characters, making the reader feel it.

How to Build a Card House
Building card houses is a fun way to spend a rainy afternoon. All you need is a deck of cards and a large floor area. Begin by forming an upside-down V with two cards. Place several of these in a row close together. Place a third and fourth card horizontally on either side of each upside-down V. This will help stabilize the base. Then, you can layer cards across the tops of the V’s. This will become the floor of your second level. Continue building V’s, walls, and roofs until you run out of cards. See how high you can make your card house before it falls down.
