Victor Frankenstein Group of answer choices rescued Frankenstein from Arctic ice creator of the creature wrongly executed for murder unknowingly taught the creature to read and write

Answers

Answer:

creator of the creature  

Explanation:

Victor Frankenstein is the creator of the creature and is the protagonist of the story. he was a young man who had a strong interest in science and was very curious as to whether it was possible to create life from dead amteria, as a type of god. He wanted to explore the most of science and technology and that was what motivated him to create the creature. However, Victor Frankenstein is repulsed when he gives life to the creature because of its appearance and for that reason he abandons it, causing the creature to take revenge on him.

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.

2. This one is not giving good facts. It is NEVER okay to cheat. You are only accountable for your actions and what you do can't be reversed.

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.
