The fairy tales Snow White and Beauty and the Beast share a similar theme: that real beauty comes from within. In your opinion, which text develops this theme more effectively? As you write your essay, remember to use details from both stories to support your response. PLEASE HELP ME PLEASE! 3 PARAGRAPHS!
While both fairy tales provide great messages, Beauty and the Beast had well developed characters, a great story line, and explored real world problems that helped better state the message. The classic fairytale shows the story of an intelligent young girl with a thirst for knowledge who saw past the ugly exterior of a beast, and into a heart of gold. Both characters managed to stay decent people and true to their heart despite the terrible treatment and abuse they faced. Belle was known for her eye-catching beauty, but this characteristic of hers paled in comparison to her brain and her heart. While the beast had issues, Belle's kind-nature helped him work through them, her presence turned him back into his beautiful self, which perfectly represents the theme of the story.
Snow White is quite similar; she is a beautiful princess with a kind heart, who see's past the seven little dwarfs' odd personalities. However, having the antagonist obsessed with her beauty just adds emphasis to the wrong idea of the story. The queen is so obsessed with being the most beautiful, she attempts to murder an innocent girl. Instead of focusing on "beauty comes from within" we see more of "envy is powerful". While it is a great story and a strong message, the characters and plot are simply not as strong as Beauty and the Beast.
A stories antagonist is a great way for an author to present the obstacle, and therefore the theme of a story. Because the queen in Snow White's story was so obsessed with her looks, her envy and jealousy drove her mad. Beauty and the Beast had everyone, even Belle for a little while, thinking that the Prince was in fact, a beast. However, Belle eventually saw inside the Prince's heart, and learned about true beauty. Both stories have strong messages and great story lines, but Beauty and the Beast's advanced use of characters and villains helped develop the theme in a powerful way, which is the mark of a great story.

I remember a time when a shortage occurred; we had to have three dollars, and we had to have it before the close of the day. I don't know now how we happened to want all that money at one time; I only know we had to have it... As it is used in this excerpt, what do you think the word bullion means? What context clues help you determine the meaning of this word in the excerpt?
Answer:
Bullion is money, specifically gold or silver that has been freshly mined but not cleaned and made into money.
Clues to the meaning include the fact that the kids need "3 dollars", the speaker doesn't know how they wanted all that "money" at one time, and they had to "raise" it, as in "raising money". When he says, "I hadn't any idea where to turn to raise all that bullion..." he means the 3 dollars.
"A battery, a tumultuous and shining mass, was swirling toward the right.The wild thud of hoofs, the cries of the riders shouting blame and praise, menace and encouragement, and, last the roar of the wheels, the slant of the glistening guns, brought the lieutenant to an intent pause.The battery swept in curves that stirred the heart; it made halts as dramatic as the crash of a wave on the rocks..." This quote is from, "An Episode of War". . Is this realism or naturalism and why?
Answer:
The correct answer is naturalism.
Explanation:
In order to answer this question we must first understand the difference between realism and naturalism.
On the one hand we have realism, which as its name implies, describes things to us as they are. No need to add emotions or feelings, it is just a description.
On the other hand we have naturalism, which although it is also responsible for describing things in a real way, it does so from a perspective of human behavior or violent emotions, as we can see in the quote given.
Given this information, we can say that the correct answer is naturalism.

Which type of conflict is reflected in the passage? Mike’s campsite was on the other side of the raging river. Mike glanced at the setting sun and guessed that he probably had about half an hour of daylight left. After that, he was doomed to stumble around in the dark. On any other day, this wouldn’t have been a big problem. He would have easily crossed the river using the bridge made of ropes. But after many years of use, the ropes had finally given way. Now Mike was left stranded on the wrong side of the river. There was another bridge about a mile upstream, but it would take him more than an hour to get there. Not to mention, he was pretty sure that he would lose his way on the unfamiliar track. He had to make a decision soon. A. character versus nature B. character versus society C. character versus character D. character versus self Reset Next
Answer:
A. character versus nature
Explanation:
It is not B character versus society because "society" is the broad term for the world of people in general. For example, a society could be just how things work, like in the Hunger Games where people are forced to fight to death every year. This story is not versus society because there is no group of people deciding how things work. We rule out B.
The only character in this story is Mike. So, we can rule out C, character versus character. Character versus character means two characters facing off and fighting each other.
It is not D character versus self because Mike isn't his own enemy. He knows how to act on his own and to do the best thing for himself to survive. SO, we rule out D.
Now, the only answer left is A: character versus nature. We have the character, Mike, and we have the conflict: nature. What are the things that are causing Mike problems in the story? The setting sun is about to make everything pitch dark which will make it hard for Mike to see. Mike is stuck on one side of a river. He would be lost if he went on an unfamiliar track. These are all nature conflicts.
The answer is A character versus nature.
Montresor is telling his story fifty years ("half of a century") after committing murder. What do you believe motivated him to share his tale so long after the events? Is Montresor a sociopath, or does he possess a conscience? Use evidence from the story to support your position.
Answer and Explanation:
Montresor is telling his story fifty years ("half of a century") after committing murder. What do you believe motivated him to share his tale so long after the events?
I believe Montresor to be a very proud man. As such, he cannot help but feel satisfaction and a sense of self-gratification for having gone half a century without being caught. He shares the story because it pleases him to do so. He is sharing it like someone would share their greatest accomplishments, a discovery, a success. The evidence that Montresor is proud is given to us right at the beginning of the story, when he explains that he did what he did due to feeling offended:
THE thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge. You, who so well know the nature of my soul, will not suppose, however, that gave utterance to a threat. At length I would be avenged; this was a point definitely, settled --but the very definitiveness with which it was resolved precluded the idea of risk. I must not only punish but punish with impunity. A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser. It is equally unredressed when the avenger fails to make himself felt as such to him who has done the wrong.
Notice that the passage above also reveals his intent of remaining unpunished.
Is Montresor a sociopath, or does he possess a conscience? Use evidence from the story to support your position.
Montresor does display the characteristics typically attributed to a sociopath. He is certainly proud, calculating, and deceiving. He planned meticulously, knowing his target's flaws and using them to his own advantage. He also showed no emotion or remorse whatsoever. Quite the contrary, while he walled Fortunato alive, he did it coldly. Even when there were moments of hesitation or heaviness of heart, it was not due to guilty. It was either due to the dampness of the catacombs, or due to brief fear that Fortunato might have escaped and would try to attack him:
A succession of loud and shrill screams, bursting suddenly from the throat of the chained form, seemed to thrust me violently back. For a brief moment I hesitated, I trembled. Unsheathing my rapier, I began to grope with it about the recess; but the thought of an instant reassured me. I placed my hand upon the solid fabric of the catacombs, and felt satisfied.
[...]
My heart grew sick; it was the dampness of the catacombs that made it so. I hastened to make an end of my labour.
