Which sentence best identifies the main idea for a summary of the excerpt?

Aside from those more obvious considerations touching Moby D*ck, which could not but occasionally awaken in any man’s soul some alarm, there was another thought, or rather vague, nameless horror about the whale, which at times by its intensity completely overpowered all the rest; and yet so mystical and well nigh ineffable was it, that I almost despair of putting it in a comprehensible form. It was the whiteness of the whale that above all things appalled me. But how can I hope to explain myself here; and yet, in some dim, random way, explain myself I must, else all these chapters might be naught.

A. The narrator tries to explain the horror of encountering the whale.
B. The narrator is most alarmed by the white color of the whale.
C. The narrator is amazed at the power and intensity of the whale.
D. The narrator considers the whale, Moby D*ck, to be mystical.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The correct option is B. The narrator is most alarmed by the white color of the whale the best identifies the summary of the passage.

Who is the author of ''The Whale''?

Herman Melville, an American author, published The Whale in 1851. The novel is the sailor Ishmael's account of the obsessive hunt for vengeance by Ahab, the captain of the whaling ship Pequod, against Moby, the enormous white sperm whale that bit off Ahab's leg at the knee on the ship's previous expedition.

Thus, The destructive power of nature is represented by the white whale as a metaphor. Although nature is a neutral force that pursues its natural course without taking sides, Ahab appears to perceive nature as possessing power over him, which is something he cannot tolerate.

Write 10 sentences on why you should have an allowance

Answers

Answer:

Allowance must of course be made for his point of view, but less so perhaps than in the case of any other writer so intimately concerned.

From the early sketch I take a few passages which seem to me, without making very much allowance for difference in time, almost as good as anything she has written since:

From 1845 to 1848 Comte lived as best he could, as well as made his wife her allowance, on an income of 200 a year.

He felt that a distinction might be drawn between adults and those of tender years; and that allowance might be made for any one who recanted.

Berg took the opportunity to ask, with great politeness, whether, as was rumored, the allowance of forage money to captains of companies would be doubled.

The composition of the ash of true coal approximates to that of a fire-clay, allowance being made for lime, which may be present either as carbonate or sulphate, and for sulphuric acid.

In the fourth sentence of the passage (I moved ... Step ) the word "premeditated indicates that the narrator

Answers

Answer:

The word "premeditated" used by the author, indicates that the narrator is being very cautious as he navigates the fire escape.

Explanation:

The narrator of Open City by Teju Cole has found himself in an unenviable situation where he was locked out of the theater and had to use the fire escape to leave the building. However, the fire escape had very flimsy stairs so he had to be very careful and thing about his every step so as not to fall down and die.

Teju Cole was born in June 27, 1975. He is a Nigerian-American writer, photographer and art historian.

Correct option is C.

In Teju Cole's novel open City, the narrator finds himself in an unfortunate situation:  he is shut out of the theater and must exit via the fire escape. The fire escape, on the other hand, had very frail stairs, so he had to be very careful and think about every step to avoid falling down and dying.

Technology drives the media and entertainment industries. This comprises anything from cutting-edge special effects created for films (and then copied by other sectors) to streaming media, virtual reality gaming, and new distribution methods for news, music, and advertising.

The advancement of amplifiers, speaker enclosures, and loudspeakers had a profound impact on theater technology. Actors could utilize microphones to broadcast their voices over the speakers, allowing theatrical plays to include music and sound effects in addition to what was going on on stage.

Therefore, the correct category is Shakespeare's-Plays and books.

Authors often use examples to illustrate their main points in a public essay. How does Paine use past examples to develop his argument? Is this
effective in supporting the argument? Cite textual evidence to support your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Thomas Paine wrote pamphlets and tried to attract people in colonies to fight against the British.

Explanation:    

Thomas Paine played a vital role by publishing pamphlet named Common Sense. He wrote pamphlets that helped change in colonist behaviour that led to declaring independence against the British. His pamphlet Common Sense encouraged the colonists to think of the present situations. His pamphlets became the source for the colonists to come together as patriots to fight for their cause (independence). Common Sense arrived as a pamphlet in Philadelphia in 1776. The first print sold out quickly, and over thousands of copies sold in America and Europe. Pamphlet read aloud in public, even General Washington commanded it to read among troops.

Answer:

Paine references Joan of Arc as an example of overcoming the panic or fear, that comes with war. He states, “in the fourteenth [fifteenth] century the whole English army, after ravaging the kingdom of France, was driven back like men petrified with fear; and this brave exploit was performed by a few broken forces collected and headed by a woman, Joan of Arc.” Paine goes on to explain that fear can be overcome quickly and, in fact, influence unlikely people to rise to meet a challenge or opponent.
