Compare and contrast: Charlie and
Algernon. In what ways are they similar and
different?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Charlie and Algernon are very different, yet peculiarly similar.

Charlie, of course, is a human and has a much bigger emotional variation than Algernon. Charlie has desires for love, sex, connection and relationships. Algernon is a mouse, so he has the desire for food. We don't see him wanting anything that Charlie wants throughout the novel. We can see, at the beginning of the novel, that Charlie and Algernon are similar in their simple mindedness. They are both dull, even at Algernon's farthest mental capacity, because they are naive. Once again, Algernon is a mouse, so he cannot have the emotional capacity of a human. Charlie in the beginning, because he is special ed, he has about the same mental and emotional capacity as Algernon.

I hope this helps!

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Where does the comma go:

"Only one person is missing" Wrote French poet Alphonse de Lamartine "and the whole world seems depopulated."

Answer:

"Only one person is missing," Wrote French poet Alphonse de Lamartine, "and the whole world seems depopulated.

Explanation:

As can be seen in the question above, the comma must be placed after the word "missing" and after the word Lamartine. As you can also see, it is important that the first comma is placed before the quotation marks ("), as this is the correct form within American English. The comma separates the phrase" wrote French poet Alphonse de Lamartine "from the rest of the sentence This must be done, because this is an additional sentence, written to extend the meaning of the sentence, but not to provide essential information.

Identify two examples of personification: explain what is being personified & how in each example.

Answer:

1.  "Ah, William, we're weary of weather,’ said the sunflowers, shining with dew. ‘Our traveling habits have tired us. Can you give us a room with a view?’ They arranged themselves at the window and counted the steps of the sun, and they both took root in the carpet where the topaz tortoises run.”

2. "I wandered lonely as a cloud

that floats on high o'er vales and hills,

When all at once I saw a crowd,

A host, of golden daffodils;

Beside the lake, beneath the trees,

Fluttering and dancing in the breeze."

Explanation:

1. In the poem, the sunflowers are talking to the author. They are tired of being outside and tell him that they want to be moved. We know that sunflowers cannot be tired or talk, so the author uses personification to give them these characteristics.

2. The daffodils are personified as a crowd of people dancing, while the author of the story floats like a cloud enjoying the show.

What do Lines 32-39 of "The Death of the Hired Man" say about Mary's character? the A. she is compassionate B. she is volatile C. she is argumentative​

Answers

Answer: A. she is compassionate

Explanation: The poem talks about an ill man that goes back to a farm he used to work at. When he arrives, he's welcomed by Mary, her former master, and wants to be forgiven by her husband as well for events that happened in the past. However; Warren, the husband, refuses to see him and his wife makes his best to convince him. When she comes back to where the poor man was, she finds that he has passed next to the barn door. Lines 32-39 portray how compassionate Mary is by looking at the "frightening and miserable sight" as she said.

Answers

Answer:

Cancer is a traumatizing event in people's lives, and it is only natural that it

will exact an emotional toll upon those whom it afflicts.

Explanation:

Depends on who is going to read it. If a patient is going to read it, he or she will hardly care if it  has metastasized. What matters is even if it has, can it be treated.

If a medical professional is reading it, they will know exactly what the meaning of metastasized is, and they will be very concerned about the stages and the treatment for each stage.

I don't like the second one, but it is likely the answer. As a patient, I would despise an answer like that one offered to me (and yes I do have cancer, and it is treated).

I also believe if this is for a general magazine that the last one is an acceptable answer. It's bland, but it works if it is followed by something meaningful.

Read this excerpt from “What I Hope to Leave Behind.”

If we have known happy homes, we want to reproduce the same type of thing we have had; and even though we may always be critical of some things in our past, time nearly always puts a halo around even a few of the disagreeable things, and most women dream, as they rock their babies or busy themselves in household tasks, that their daughters will do the same things someday.

Which statement explains how this excerpt relates to the position of women during Eleanor Roosevelt’s time?

A. Although some women may have raised sons and daughters, they lived during a time when they taught their daughters to work in the home.
B. Although some women had difficult upbringings, they lived during a time when working in the home was their only option.
C. Although some women may have had doubts about working in the home, they lived during a time when doing so was often taken for granted.
D. Although some women had been raised to consider individual careers, they lived during a time when they often opted to work in the home.

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

the excerpt reads "and most women dream, as they rock their babies or busy themselves in household tasks," which is implying that they're dreaming of a bigger life, and more things they'd like to do. Option B is stating that some women did have difficult childhoods, and that at that moment in the excerpt (read above) was their only option or else they'd be disliked.
