What’s the central theme of the text ripe figs
A.family doesn’t always know what’s best
B.tradition grounds people and promotes stability
C. Respect for elders is the most important thing to have
D. Growing up takes time and patience, it can’t be rushed

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D). Growing up takes time and patience, it can’t be rushed.

Explanation:

Kate Chopin's story is based upon the key idea that 'human maturity is a gradual process like the seasons of the year which requires patience and can't be hastened.' This theme is represented through the metaphor of 'fig' which symbolizes that 'ripening'(or maturity) comes with time. Making haste or anxiousness will serve no purpose is the message that Maman-Nainaine gives to Babette and tells her that 'like the figs will not ripe sooner as per her wish, similarly the maturity would arrives in her at the right time.' Thus, option D is the correct answer.

What happens to graders who use a red pen?A.They are more accurate with thier correctionsB.They find more errorsC.They feel themselves getting angrt when they gradeD.They make more mistakes​

Answers

Answer:

Graders who use a red pen

The answer is:

A. They are more accurate with their corrections.

Explanation:

The use of red pen to grade has been traditional with teachers.  The colour helps them to differentiate the students' work from the corrections made by the teachers.  It also stands out prominently as distinct from the original work by the students.

However, recent researches have shown that it could have some negative effects on the students.  For one, it is suspected to alienate the students from their teachers.  Two, it could aggravate negative feelings in the students because of the sharpness of the red ink.

It is advised that teachers should choose other neutral colours in grading students.  They could use blue if the student used black and vice versa.

Answers

Answer: The author uses places, people, and actions as symbolism in some phrases to make the reader understand that "Ithaka" refers to our goals in life, our final destination.

Explanation:

Ithaka is the island home of Odysseus, the hero in the poem "The Oddysey". In that poem, he parts from his home and fights Poseidon, then takes a long journey to get back to Ithaka. This is why in the "Ithaka" poem, the author uses places, people, and actions to symbolize something else. Such as in the phrase: "Unless your soul sets them up in front of you". It does not mean that his enemies will appear in front of him, but to let the thought of them get to him.

In the whole poem, the author implies that reaching Ithaka is the reader's destination, wishing that the experiences learned are more valuable than getting to Ithaka itself.

Compare and contrast the characters of Miss Temple and Miss Scatcherd from Jane Eyre, explaining how each functions as a model for Jane. Your answer should be at least 250 words.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë is a story about an orphaned girl that lived with her aunt and cousins, until one day after being bullied and locked, she is sent to a religious boarding school, named Loowod Institute where she meets Helen Burns and finds her first real friend, Helen Burns. Helen dies after a brief friendship with Jane but she makes a real impact in Jane's character.

Jane Eyre is a girl that tries to blend in as a wallflower but she has a strong character, she evolves with every event in her life, she analyzes every situation that happens to her, and has a strong sense for justice due to the abuse she suffered as a child; in Loowod, Jane founds her first friend Helen Burns, even though they are the same age Helen acts as a teacher to Jane because of her advanced knowledges; Helen is a role model to Jane and even after her dead Jane manages to survive and study hard so she finally becomes a teacher and later a governess.

Helen Burns is a devoted religious girl, who dreams about finding her place in Heaven and trusts God with blind faith, she is caring, compassionate and has a developed intellectual maturity for her age.

Helen Burns acts as a foil to Jane, because her submissive character and blind faiths highlights Jane's strong character, while Helen dreams about finding her place and love in Heaven, Jane dreams about finding love and a home in this world, Helen's philosophy towards justice is that God is the only one that has the power to judge, so she turns the other cheek when girls bully her, and while Jane is amazed by Helen's attitude she is not able to adopt it.

Miss Temple is the kind and fair-minded superintendent of Lowood School, who plays an important role in the emotional development of Jane Eyre. Miss Temple is described by Helen as being "good and very clever" and "above the rest because she knows far more than they do". Miss Scatcherd appears to have some kind of vendetta against one of her pupils, Helen Burns. This is shown when she berates Helen for extremely petty reasons multiple times in one class. She later turns even worse when she canes twelve times Helen for having dirty nails and calls her a slattern, despite the fact that she could not clean them because the water was frozen.

Think about Sense and Sensibility. Setting aside the secret engagement of Edward and Lucy, the shyness and social propriety with which Edward and Elinor behave toward each other, and the dramatic events in Marianne's life that distract Elinor, there is an ever-present hindrance to the possibility of Edward and Elinor marrying: money. How do the characters perceive of the uses of money and of the problems of the lack of money? In an essay of at least 250 words, and using details from the text, discuss the novel's ongoing concern with money as it dictates matrimony

Answers

"Sense and sensitivity" was written at a time when women could not receive any inheritance from their parents and that is what most affects the events that occur in the life of Marianne Elinor.

This time is also marked by marriages formed without love between the characters, but established in how much money and goods that marriage would provide, which also creates many problems for the lives of the two sisters. That's because their father died and, although he was a wealthy man, he had to leave all the goods to their half brother, who lets them go through serious economic difficulties. Thus, both are not considered good candidates for marriage, since they would not provide any benefit to the future husband, which alienates most men.

Elinor is in love with Edward, who also loves her, but besides being committed to another woman, he was disowned by his mother and has no income or job. Besides being already engaged, he would not be able to support a home where he and Elinor could live. Marianne, on the other hand, is in love with a handsome guy who seems to have a lot of possessions, but the truth is that he also has no money and ends up marrying a wealthy woman, who can change his economic situation.

The lack of money is a very strong subject in "Sense and sensitivity", because in addition to preventing the sisters from being with the men they love, it keeps away possible suitors who could help them, leaving them so concerned with their social positions, civil status and factors related to their survival.

What two aspects of the life of Cyclopes makes Odysseus think that they are uncivilized before he interacts with one?

Answers

When he looks at the land of the Cyclops, Odysseus can see that they have wonderful bunches of grapes. Soon he believes they are talented farmers. Agriculture for Odysseus is synonymous with civilization. Also, he realizes that Cyclops live in caves, which are like houses. Having a home is also a sign of civility for Odysseus.

However, Odysseus does not know that:

Cyclops do not cultivate the land and do not practice agriculture.Caves are inhospitable shelters and not a civilized home.Cyclops live in full barbarism and violence, without considering family and social relationships.

This mistake of Odysseus in relation to the Cyclops, causes him and his men to be violently attacked, causing Odysseus to lose a large part of the crew and feel very guilty for having acted so incorrectly.

With this, we can conclude that we should never make decisions based only on what our eyes see, because appearances deceive.

We must not forget to mention that this question refers to the book "Odyssey" which tells the adventures of Odysseus and his crew, trying to return to their homes in Ithaca.

Frederic Chopin

Frederic Chopin was born in Zelazowa Wola on March 1, 1810 and died in Paris on October 17, 1849. He was the son of a French father, Mikolaj Chopin and a cultured Polish mother. He grew up in Warsaw and took childhood music lessons from Wojciech Zywny and Jozef Eisner. He then entered the Conservatory (1826-9). By this time, he had performed in local salons and composed several pieces. His public and critical popularity increased during the years 1829-30. In those years, he gave concerts in Vienna and Warsaw. He also felt bad about his despair over the political problems in Poland. This, combined with his musical desire, led him to move to Paris in 1831. There, he got help from Kalkbrenner and Pleyel. He was also well received by Liszt and Schumann. He was introduced into the highest society and quickly made a name for himself as a private teacher and salon performer. He gave few public concerts. Even so, his playing was loved by all people. And he published much of his best music at the same time in Paris, London, and Leipzig.
