Read the excerpt from The Diary of Anne Frank. The curtain rises on an empty stage. It is late afternoon November, 1945. The rooms are dusty, the curtains in rags. Chairs and tables are overturned. The door at the foot of the small stairwell swings open. Mr. Frank comes up the steps into view. He is a gentle, cultured European in his middle years. There is still a trace of a German accent in his speech. What do these stage directions reveal about when the opening scene takes place

Answers

Answer:

The stage instructions show that the opening scene takes place after the Franks have been captured.

Explanation:

"The Diary of Anne Frank" presents the events covered in "The Diary of a Young Girl" where Anne Frank wrote about the times when she, her family and other Jews were hidden for three years, not to be captured and taken to the Nazi concentration camps. However, they were captured and killed in the concentration camps, only Anne's father, Mr. Frank, survived.

When the opening scene presents Mr. Frank as an elderly man, observing the hiding place where he was, completely destroyed and covered with dust, it wishes to show that this happened after the capture of the Jews and life in the concentration camps.

Answers

Answer:

D. He points to these tragedies as evidence to support his claim.

Explanation:

Elie Wiesel's "The Perils of Indifference" was a speech that he gave at the White House on the 12th of April 1999. This speech pronounces his take on one of the harshest human traits that are indifference.

In his speech, Wiesel lists a number of tragedies, "the defeat of Nazism, the collapse of communism, the rebirth of Israel on its ancestral soil, the demise of apartheid, Israel's peace treaty with Egypt, the peace accord in Ireland". These historical events are supporting arguments, evidence for the claim that he made.

Answers

Answer:

Atmosphere refers to mood or feeling whereas high stakes refers to advancement in the story.

Explanation:

Mood in literature is another word for the atmosphere. The mood is the feeling that the writer is trying to produce or creates in their readers feelings like calmness, anxiety, joy, or anger while on the other hand, high stakes allows to keep the plot moving, characters growing and changing, and keep your readers engaged in the story and creates the interest of the readers. Without high stakes, your story may feel flat.

Your question is incomplete, but most probably the full question was.

Read the excerpt from "Hokusai's The Great Wave."

So The Great Wave, far from being the quintessence of Japan, is a hybrid work, a fusion of European materials and conventions with a Japanese sensibility. No wonder this image has been so loved in Europe: it is an exotic relative, not a complete stranger.

It also, I think, shows a peculiarly Japanese ambivalence. As a viewer, you have no place to stand, no footing. You, too, must be in a boat, under the Great Wave, and in danger. The dangerous sea over which European things and ideas travelled has, however, been drawn with a profound ambiguity.

A suggestion that this small, idyllic town has its own culture that is set in its old ways. Old fashioned and possibly inclined to backward thinking. The village is not isolated. It is only an hour's ride away from the nearest roadway but it is remote enough that it can "not be reached by the vibrations of public opinion." Raveloe is also described as an important looking village with its old church and large churchyard found in the heart of the village. It boasts of well-tended walled orchards, two or three large brick and stone houses and ornamental weathercocks.

20. The police inspector said that roadblocks have been set up at every strategic point and the public has been warned to keep a lookout for the escaped prisoners.

Explanation:

In order to change a sentence from the active voice into the passive, we follow the steps below:

1. The subject of the active sentence becomes the agent of the passive one. It is preceded by the preposition "by".

2. The object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive one. If the verb has both a direct and an indirect object, either can be chosen to be the new subject. That is why we have two ways or rewriting sentence number 16.

3. We must identify the verb and its tense. In the passive, we add the auxiliary "be" respecting the original tense, and we change the main verb into its past participle form. Modal verbs such as "can", "may", or "should" are kept.

Take a look at the example below:

- Active voice: I (sub.) have given (verb, present perfect)  her (object I) a new necklace (object II).

- Passive voice, option I: She (sub.) has been given (verb, p.p. aux. "be") a new necklace (object) by me (agent).

- Passive voice, option II: A new necklace (sub.) has been given (verb, p.p., aux. "be") to her (object) by me (agent).
