Hello!
"That's what literature is. It’s the people who went before us, tapping out messages from the past, from beyond the grave, trying to tell us about life and death! Listen to them!" –Passage, Connie Willis

I need three short texts that can help support my point (This quote from Willis is agreeable since many stories contain important messages that pertain to explaining or describing ideas or morals that are timeless.) about the quote above for my interpretive essay. Any ideas on what I could use? Thanks so much!

Select TWO sentences from paragraph 2 below that identify possible long-term positive outcomes of incentives.

Allowance is a common motivational tool that parents use to encourage their kids to do the work they themselves hate.

Kids do chores like the ones listed above, and in retum they get paid, setting aside the money for activities, toys, or clothes.

Incentive plans do not always rely on a cash exchange, though Sometimes there are different kinds of incentives for household work.

For example, children might do something like mow a neighbor's lawn or sweep out a path during a snowstorm, they will receive, in return, a trip to the mall or a new video game.

Those who endorse allowances and other incentives argue that this system teaches children about money management.

It can provide them with the skills to negotiate and to get what they want later in life in the real world.

Answers

Answer:

d. If a body wants to something, though, it ain't like work at all.

Explanation:

This question is about "Tom Sawyer."

The main theme of a play refers to the main subject on which the work was created and wishes to pass on to its audience. Thus, we can consider the line "If a body wants to something, though, it ain't like work at all" as the one that best represents the theme of "Tom Sawyer" since this play shows how to do an activity that we want and what we want is pleasurable because we don't see it as a job (which is boring and tiring), but as an adventure, a diversion.

3. How have the seven years of shame living outside of society changed Hester's view of the world?
Her irreverence for society's rules allows her to imagine radical possibilities.
Her hatred for the Puritans who punished her drives her to think evil thoughts.
Her loneliness without any romantic affection has made her bitter toward love.
Her place of honor as one who aids the sick and poor has made her more kind.

Answers

Answer:

Her irreverence for society's rules allows her to imagine radical possibilities.

Explanation:

I took the test and got it right

The seven years of shame living outside of society changed Hester's view of the world by her irreverence for society's rules allows her to imagine radical possibilities. Option (a) is correct.

What do you mean by Society?

A society is a group of people that regularly contact with one another or a significant social group that inhabits the same physical or social territory and is typically under the control of the same political leadership and prevailing cultural expectations.

Hester resents and internally rebels against the brutality of her Puritan persecutors despite her outward humility and her refusal to retaliate against the community. To the residents of the town, she becomes a living representation of sin; they don't see her as a person, but rather as the personification of evil in the world.

Hester has violated the rigorous and strict laws of Puritan society by engaging in adultery. Puritan culture insisted on conformity because it saw any violation as a danger to its security and religion.

Therefore, Option (a) is correct. Her irreverence for society's rules allows her to imagine radical possibilities.

In the excerpt from Flesh & Blood So Cheap, read how author Albert Marrin describes Chief Croker (lines 261–265).

Next morning, March 26, Chief Croker returned for

another look. The only creatures he found alive were some

half-drowned mice. He picked one up, stroked it gently, and

put it in his pocket. The chief would take it home, he said.

“It’s alive. At least it’s alive.”



Next, read the description of Croker by author Zachary Kent in lines 1–7 from The Story of the Triangle Factory Fire.

In the days following the fire, city officials sifted through

the charred rubble at the Asch Building and tried to fix

the fault for the tragedy. Fire Chief Croker angrily stated,

“There wasn’t a fire escape anywhere fronting on the street

by which these unfortunate girls could escape.” Doors that

opened inward instead of outward, overcrowding in work

areas, and blocked exits also were to blame.



Compare these two passages. Explain how Chief Croker is portrayed differently in the excerpts. (Think about what both authors want to show the reader about Chief Croker.)

Answers

Answer:

Albert Martin included that anecdote to show that even an experienced fire chief was disturbed and affected about what he saw even though he was used to see fires. He took the mouse because it was the only survivor. He was happy that at least something got to survive. This anecdote about fire chief Crocker bringing home a mouse from the remains of the fire serves to remind the reader that even someone like Fire Chief Crocker who was incredibly experienced in fires and had seen many tragedies in his time was very disturbed and bothered by the Triangle Fire.
