Read the two fictional conflicts below. Using complete sentences, explain how the differences in setting might affect the protagonist.

Story A: A boy gets caught stealing an apple in a crowded high school lunchroom.

Story B: A boy gets caught stealing an apple in a four-person lifeboat that has been drifting at sea for three days. (5 points)

Your answer:

Answers

Explanation:

From Story A since we are told that the boy gets caught stealing in a crowded high school lunchroom it is very possible for many to become aware of his actions; bringing him more shame and punishment.

However, in Story B, since we are told the boy was caught stealing in a four-person lifeboat that has been drifting at sea for three days, it is reasonable to believe that the protagonist (the boy) would face far lesser punishment because of the circumstances;

Remember, we are told that the lifeboat has been drifting at sea for three days, which means there may have been insufficient food onboard which likely lead to the theft.Because the number of those that are onboard is lesser, he will face lesser punishment.

Answer: story A: since the room is more congested, more irregular individuals detect that the individual has been seen robbing; thus, their intention is slightly acting. The protagonist's intention is not to look as sinister. Whereas in story B, the ship's individuals are numerous, exhausted, and likely to have eaten a lot. Therefore, they are powerless to get mad or, should I express it, hungry, so the protagonist could be abused or examined highly poorly in that setting.

Have gone to their eternal rest.
There shrines and palaces and towers
(Time-eaten towers that tremble not!)
Resemble nothing that is ours.
Around, by lifting winds forgot,
Resignedly beneath the sky
The melancholy waters he.

No rays from the holy heaven come down
On the long night-time of that town;
But light from out the lurid sea
Streams up the turrets silently-
Gleams up the pinnacles far and free-
Up domes- up spires- up kingly halls-
Up fanes- up Babylon-like walls-
Up shadowy long-forgotten bowers
Of sculptured ivy and stone flowers-
Up many and many a marvellous shrine
Whose wreathed friezes intertwine
The viol, the violet, and the vine.
Resignedly beneath the sky
The melancholy waters lie.
So blend the turrets and shadows there
That all seem pendulous in air,
While from a proud tower in the town
Death looks gigantically down.

There open fanes and gaping graves
Yawn level with the luminous waves;
But not the riches there that lie
In each idol's diamond eye-
Not the gaily-jewelled dead
Tempt the waters from their bed;
For no ripples curl, alas!
Along that wilderness of glass-
No swellings tell that winds may be
Upon some far-off happier sea-
No heavings hint that winds have been
On seas less hideously serene.

But lo, a stir is in the air!
The wave- there is a movement there!
As if the towers had thrust aside,
In slightly sinking, the dull tide-
As if their tops had feebly given
A void within the filmy Heaven.
The waves have now a redder glow-
The hours are breathing faint and low-
And when, amid no earthly moans,
Down, down that town shall settle hence,
Hell, rising from a thousand thrones,
Shall do it reverence.

How does Dobyns’s use of unusual structure affect the meaning of “Icarus’s Flight?”

“Icarus’s Flight” by Stephen Dobyns
What else could the boy have done? Wasn’t
flight both an escape and a great uplifting?
And so he flew. But how could he appreciate
his freedom without knowing the exact point

where freedom stopped? So he flew upward
and the sun dissolved the wax and he fell.
But at last in his anticipated plummeting
he grasped the confines of what had been

his liberty. You say he flew too far?
He flew just far enough. He flew precisely
to the point of wisdom. Would it
have been better to flatter ignorantly

from petal to petal within some garden
forever? As a result, flight for him was not
upward escape, but descent, with his wings
disintegrating around him. Should it matter

that neither shepherd nor farmer with his plow
watched him fall? He now had his answer,
laws to uphold him in his downward plunge.
Cushion enough for what he wanted.

Answers

Answer:

D. The way sentences extend from one stanza into the next pull the reader along.

Explanation:

The myth of "Icarus" and his flight to the sun bringing his fall from the sky is a story we are all familiar with. It was this story that gives us the lesson of not going beyond what is dictated or not to be too curious or greedy.

Stephen Dobyns' version/ poem of the same myth presents the same case, but the only difference is that he presents the other possibility or other nature of the flight. For him, the escape doesn't merely mean an escape from the island or captivity, but it also signals the realization of what freedom is and to what extent it is available. For him, it was "a great uplifting", "fly[ing] precisely to the point of wisdom".

This unstructured and unusual pattern of poetry, the way the sentences are pulled along to the next stanza, without much punctuation makes the reader eager to keep reading. It entices and arrests the reader's interest, pulling us along until the end.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

What is the Sun?

It is a gold coin dropped

Answers

"It is a gold coin dropped

down a drain in Heaven"

The comparison means that it's sort of like a golden coin that someone had dropped down a sink drain on an accident, but someone dropped it down the drain in heaven and it has now landed in the sky of the Earth.

I think the author chose to make this comparison because the sun is yellow and it is sort of a golden color and it is sort of common for things to be dropped down the drain. Therefore, it is like a golden coin going down the drain of heaven and into the sky.
