Answers

Answer 1

Hello. You did not say what text this question refers to, which makes it impossible for the question to be answered accurately. However, to try to help you, I will show you how you can find the main argument of a text. I hope this helps.

The main argument of a text is usually found in the first sentence of the text, with the other phrases being used to support and prove the relevance of the argument and the accuracy it has. It can happen the other way around too, and the main argument is in the last sentence.

In short, an author's main argument in the text is the idea he is defending. This idea can be identified because the author is positioning himself on something, showing something that must be observed.

Read this excerpt from "Poor Harold.”

A room in Washington Square South. By the light of a candle, a young man in tousled hair and dressing gown is writing furiously at a little table. A clock within strikes seven.

A door at the back opens, and a young woman looks in, sleepily. She frowns. The young man looks up guiltily.

SHE. What are you doing?

HE. (innocently) Writing.

SHE. So I see. (She comes in, and sits down. It may be remarked that a woman's morning appearance, in dishabille, is a severe test of both looks and character; she passes that test triumphantly. She looks at the young man, and asks) – Poetry?

HE. (hesitatingly) No. . . .

SHE. (continues to look inquiry).

HE. (finally) A letter. . . .

SHE. (inflexibly) – To whom?

HE. (defiantly) To my wife!

SHE. Oh! That's all right. I thought perhaps you were writing to your father.

HE. (bitterly) My father! Why should I write to my father? Isn't it enough that I have broken his heart and brought disgrace upon him in his old age –

SHE. Disgrace? Nonsense! Anybody might be named as a co-respondent in a divorce case.

HE. Not in Evanston, Illinois. Not when you are the local feature of a notorious Chicago scandal. Not when your letters to the lady are published in the newspapers. – Oh, those letters!

SHE. Were they such incriminating letters, Harold?

HAROLD. Incriminating? How can you ask that, Isabel? They were perfectly innocent letters, such as any gentleman poet might write to any lady poetess. How was I to know that a rather plain-featured woman I sat next to at a Poetry Dinner in Chicago was conducting a dozen love-affairs? How was I to know that my expressions of literary regard would look like love-letters to her long-suffering husband? That's the irony of it: I'm perfectly blameless.

Which of Harold's character traits is revealed using direct characterization?

youth
innocence
defiance
bitterness

Answers

Answer:

A. Youth

Explanation:

Characterization is a process of giving traits and personality to a character by the author. There are two types of characterization: direct and indirect.

Direct characterization is, as the name suggests, when the author directly states the character's traits.

Indirect characterization is when character's traits and personality need to be infered from his actions, words, manner of speaking etc.

Here, the question is to find which Harold's characteristic is revealed using DIRECT characterization.

That can be seen from "By the light of a candle, a YOUNG man in tousled hair and dressing gown is writing furiously at a little table."

The author directly and precisely states that Harold is a young man.

Answers

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. With this, the narration manages to create visual images in the reader, which are able to demonstrate the desolation of the track and how it affects the characters.

Sometimes I like to do things I enjoy to get my mind off of what is stressing me out, as, for example, I might start drawing to help put my mind at ease. Other things I may do is think about what is stressing me out, why it's causing me such a reaction, and how I can handle it and get over it. Those are the two main ways I like to cope, though there are many other ways, but all people have their own ways to cope. Some people like to get stress balls to relieve stress and some people like to get professional help to cope.

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.

"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.

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.

Answers

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.
