Explanation:
Which two sentences in these excerpts from Kate Chopin’s “The Locket” reflect the theme of holding on to love despite time and distance.
The letter had made Edmond heart sick and home sick. He stretched himself on his back and looked straight up at the blinking stars. But he was not thinking of them nor of anything but a certain spring day when the bees were humming in the clematis; when a girl was saying goodbye to him. He could see her as she unclasped from her neck the locket which she fastened about his own. It was an old fashioned golden locket bearing miniatures of her father and mother with their names and the date of their marriage. It was her most precious earthly possession.
…
Octavie wore a plain black dress, severe in its simplicity. A narrow belt held it at the waist and the sleeves were gathered into close fitting wristbands. She had discarded her hoopskirt and appeared not unlike a nun. Beneath the folds of her bodice nestled the old locket. She never displayed it now. It had returned to her sanctified in her eyes; made precious as material things sometimes are by being forever identified with a significant moment of one's existence.
…
Octavie felt as if she had passed into a stage of existence which was like a dream, more poignant and real than life. There was the old gray house with its sloping eaves. Amid the blur of green, and dimly, she saw familiar faces and heard voices as if they came from far across the fields, and Edmond was holding her. It was as if the spirit of life and the awakening spring had given back the soul to her youth and bade her rejoice.
Answer:
*It was an old fashioned golden locket bearing miniatures of her father and mother with their names and the date of their marriage.
*It had returned to her sanctified in her eyes; made precious as material things sometimes are by being forever identified with a significant moment of one's existence.

What is the primary purpose of the couplet in this
sonnet?
Abel
Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long
To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
Spend'st thou thy fury on some worthless song,
Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light?
Return, forgetful Muse, and straight redeem
In gentle numbers time so idly spent;
Sing to the ear that doth thy lays esteem
And gives thy pen both skill and argument.
Rise, restive Muse, my love's sweet face survey,
If Time have any wrinkle graven there;
If any, be a satire to decay,
And make Time's spoils despised every where.
Give my love fame faster than Time wastes life;
So thou prevent'st his scythe and crooked knife.

This description allows readers to visualize the dog's physical appearance. the desolation of the trail. the appearance of a dogsled. the man's facial expressions.
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Read the passage from Part 1 of "To Build a Fire."
The dog dropped in again at his heels, with a tail drooping discouragement, as the man swung along the creek bed. The furrow of the old sled trail was plainly visible, but a dozen inches of snow covered the marks of the last runners. In a month no man had come up or down that silent creek. The man held steadily on.
This description allows readers to visualize the dog's physical appearance. the desolation of the trail. the appearance of a dogsled. the man's facial expressions.
Answer:
the desolation of the trail.
Explanation:
The excerpt shown in the question above shows how the man and the dog are in a difficult situation on the trail. They are weak, tired and the trail seems to hinder their path. The narration shows how the scenario, in this case, the trail, emits a certain oppression in the characters, showing a tone of desolation, hopelessness and defeat.

Given that Lilliput represents Britain and Blefuscu represents France in Gulliver's Travels, what does the Lilliputian official's description of Blefuscu as "the other great empire of the universe" suggest? a a. Britain has too high an opinion of France and its military. b b. Britain sees itself and France as rival superpowers. c c. France and Britain are strong allies. d d. France is the greater country of the two.
Answer:
The Lilliputian official's description of Blefuscu as "the other great empire of the universe" suggests:
b. Britain sees itself and France as rival superpowers.
Explanation:
We can easily break the quote down: To the official, there are only two great empires. One of them is Lilliput, the other one is Blefuscu. Since Lilliput represents Britain, we can see how the author, Jonathan Swift, is using this quote to criticize Britain's narrow view of the world. They do not think of other countries as great. And the only other country whose greatness they acknowledge is precisely the one they consider their enemy. To Britain, France is its rival in being the world's superpower. Of course, since it could not be different, Lilliput and Blefuscu are enemies in the story.
The novel "Gulliver's Travels" is a satire of society written by Jonathan Swift. By describing the fictitious countries and societies where Gulliver ends up during his voyages, the author criticizes human nature and its nitpicking.

Art is the antidote that can call us back from the edge of numbness, restoring the ability to feel for another. — Barbara Kingsolver, High Tide in Tucson
1. By using the word antidote, what does the author imply about the inability to feel for another?
2. If we changed the word antidote to gift, what effect would it have on the meaning of the sentence?
Answer:
1. The author implies that the inability to feel for another is a sickness and its remedy or cure is Art.
2. Changing the word antidote to gift would make art seem like an endowment or talent rather that can prove helpful to him.
Explanation:
An antidote is a remedy for a disease. It is like a medicine that can be used to cure an ailment. When the author said that art is an antidote that can restore our inability to feel for another, it implies that the inability to feel for another is like a disease whose remedy can only be art.
Changing the word antidote to 'gift' makes us see art as a privilege bestowed on a person that can serve a useful purpose for him.

"The Balek Scales" can be viewed as an allegory for the elusiveness of justice in the modern world. The correct answer is option A.
"The Balek Scales" is a short story by Heinrich Böll. The story is about a young boy who tries to sell a pair of old scales to a second-hand dealer.
The story can be viewed as an allegory for the elusiveness of justice in the modern world. The scales represent the justice system, which is supposed to be fair and accurate.
However, the dealer's refusal to buy the scales suggests that the justice system is flawed and unreliable. The boy's use of the scales to weigh the dealer's daughter represents the need for justice to be applied equally to all people, regardless of their social status or wealth.
Therefore, the correct choice for this question is option A. the elusiveness of justice in the modern world.

Answer:
I think it would be John-tyler binfet
Explanation:
John-Tyler Binfet is the person quoted in the article who would MOST LIKELY agree with the idea that people can learn to be kind for their own sake by first getting rewards for acts of kindness. Hence, option D is appropriate.
What is the Act of Kindness?Random acts of kindness are unplanned, sporadic acts intended to show generosity to other people or the wider world. In 1982, Anne Herbert wrote the words "practice random kindness but also senseless acts of beauty" on a placemat near Sausalito, California.
Everyone can live in a brighter world by performing acts of kindness. They can increase feelings of assurance, mastery, joy, and optimism. Additionally, by encouraging everyone else to carry out all the good deeds they have previously performed, they may improve the community.
By reducing stress and boosting the body's production of more feel-good hormones like dopamine, oxytocin, and serotonin when we act kindly toward others or ourselves, we can experience beneficial mental and physical improvements.
Hence, option D is correct.
