Veseljchak [2.6K]

This question is missing the options. I've found them online. They are the following:

What key detail should be added to strengthen the student’s paraphrasing of this excerpt?

A) Dulichium, Same, and Zacynthus are all visible to Ithaca.

B) Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

C) The islands surrounding Ithaca lie to the east and the south.

D) Ithaca lies under Mount Neion and to the northwest.

Answer:

The detail that should be added to strengthen the paraphrasing is:

B) Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

Explanation:

A paraphrase consists of rewording something that was said by someone else. That is, we say the exact same thing but with different words. Thus, to strengthen the student's paraphrase in this case, we must look for the idea that is missing.

In the original excerpt, Odysseus talks of Ithaca's geographic location, the fact that it is a good place "for a boy's training", and the fact that the island is a place he loves:

I shall not see on earth a place more dear.

However, the student's paraphrase has left out this last idea. To make it more complete, we should add that Odysseus holds his home very close to his heart.

Compare the characters of Hedda Gabler and Daisy Miller: A Study. Both are the inventions of realist writers, but which is more

Dennis_Churaev [7]

In my view Hedda Gabbler is the most morally ambiguous between the two. Allow me to compare the two characters in order to clarify my views. Hedda Gabbler is an older Norwegian housewife of upper-*Middle class who chose to marry because she was starting to grow older. Her motivations are not always clear and sometimes it seems as though she suffers some kind of mental illness. Also, the etymology of her name is quite revelatory, her name comes from " the Germanic name Hadewig, derived from the Germanic elements hadu "battle, combat" and wig "war" (https://www.behindthename.com/name/hedwig). Hedda is obviously in conflict with the patriarchal society of her time and she aims to not only be in command of her own destiny but also to control her husband. She kills herself in order to deny the power of a man over her. Even in her death she is defiant. Daisy Miller on the other hand is a very young adult and rich American who loves Europe and its ways. She is naive and innocent and her behavior is not as vindictive as the behavior of Hedda Gabbler. Daisy is in opposition to the conservative and patriarchal views of society more because of her exposition ot European cultures and less due to a conscious realization of her condition. Her name is the name of a flower and her death is also symbolic as she dies from malaria. Flowers die during winter and Daisy's winter is the disease that kills her. She is more a victim than a proto-feminist.
