Find theme and main idea
Piano
by: D. H. Lawrence

Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me;

Taking me back down the vista of years, till I see

A child sitting under the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings

And pressing the small, poised feet of a mother who smiles as she sings.



In spite of myself, the insidious mastery of song

Betrays me back, till the heart of me weeps to belong

To the old Sunday evenings at home, with winter outside

And hymns in the cozy parlor, the tinkling piano our guide.



So now it is vain for the singer to burst into clamor

With the great black piano appassionato. The glamor

Of childish days is upon me, my manhood is cast

Down in the flood of remembrance, I weep like a child for the past.

Prompt:

What do you think is the theme, or main message of "Piano"? Use at least 1 piece of textual evidence in your paragraph response. Your response should be at least 5 sentences, but no more than 10.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

theme = Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me;

i believe the theme of this poem, is,"Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me;." reason being is the fact that it first talks about the character and the environment around her. this gives me a sense of belief that what this source is  trying to infer is that there are two characters. One character is described as to be singing and the other is to be listening.

Explanation:

well i tried so if wrong please PLEASE dont blame me :(

Answer:

Friends, Romans, countrymen, listen to me

I came to bury Caesar, not to praise him

The evil actions of men will remain after their death

The good in a man will enter his body after death

Let Caesar's actions follow him.  

Brutus had told you Caesar was ambitious.

If Caesar was ambitious, his ambition would be his demise,  

Caesar made it clear, he was an ambitious man.

Due to Brutus' departure-

Brutus and them are all honorable men-

I will now discuss my relationship with Caesar.

Caesar was a loyal friend to me.

Brutus said that Caesar was ambitious,  

and Brutus is not a liar.

Many captives asked Caesar to be released with money,

Caesar brought them home to Rome,  

and put the money in Rome's treasure, not in his pocket.

Did Caesar think this was ambitious?

Caesar cried alongside the poor.

Ambition takes overcoming more troubles.

Yet Brutus said Caesar was ambitious,

and Brutus wouldn't lie.

You all saw at the Lupercal,

I excitingly presented Brutus with a crown,

which Brutus quickly denied.

Was Brutus' ambition?

Brutus still says Caesar was ambitious,

Brutus is an honorable man, he wouldn't lie.

I'm not speaking to disprove Brutus,

But I'm here to speak what I know.

You all loved him once unwarrantedly:

Why are you all mourning for him?

There is no longer any judgement,

And men have lost their reason. Bear with me.

My heart is in the coffin with Caesar.

Answers

Answer:

Of all his friends (Jack, Mia, Louis), Jack was the only one he had known since kindergarten.

Explanation:

The phrase "Jack, Mia, Louis" is considered nonessential. This means that it does not change the meaning of the sentence if it is removed. The phrase is correctly set apart from the sentence by a pair of parentheses. Commas and dashes are other ways to set off nonessential phrases.

The correct responses are - When a sentence is over, you are not left wondering what happened or with any unanswered questions.  B.Fragment is question four. The answer to question 5 is A. Complete.

What are Fragments?

Sentences with gaps are called fragments. Fragments are often sentences that have lost their connection to the main phrase. Removing the period from the main phrase and the fragment is one of the simplest methods to fix them. For the newly joined sentence, other types of punctuation can be required.

An incomplete sentence is one that lacks either the subject or the primary verb. Some sentence fragments are the consequence of straightforward typos or word omissions. With attentive proofreading, these may frequently be avoided.

Sentences without a subject, sentences without a verb, and sentences with subordinate clauses are the three primary categories of sentence fragments.

The author characterizes the Athenians as "the citizens of one out of a thousand cities" (paragraph 5) in order to convey which of the following?
Although ancient Greece had many cities, an unusual number of prominent artists lived in Athens.
Given its relatively small size, Athens should not be considered overly influential.
The policies of many Greek cities during the classical era should be considered by those who wish to defend the Greeks as an artistic people.
While Athenians might be famous for certain attitudes toward the arts, this attitude should not be thought of as unique to the citizens of that one city.
E
Even if the Athenians were shown to be an artistic people, that designation should not be extended to all peoples of ancient Greece.

Answers

Answer: E.) Even if the Athenians were shown to be an artistic people, that designation should not be extended to all peoples of ancient Greece.

Explanation: The author emphasizes that Athens was just one among many ancient Greek cities in order to dismiss the idea that the Athenians’ reputation as an artistic people should be extended to “the Greeks” in general. By modifying “Athenians” with this phrase, the author is able to limit the scope of his argument: since he presents the Athenians as the only possible candidate for an “artistic people” in ancient Greece, he can focus solely on analyzing the Athenians without having to consider people from other Greek cities.

Answer:
