The correct pairs of synonyms in "Story of an Hour" are "rapidly" and "tumultuously," "running" and "coursing," "empty" and "vacant," "thin" and "slender."

<h3>What is a synonym?</h3>

We can define a synonym as a word that has the same meaning as another word, so much so that one can be used in the place of the other without a problem.

In Kate Chopin's "Story of an Hour," the bolded words form pairs of synonyms as seen below:

  • rapidly - tumultuously
  • running - coursing
  • empty - vacant
  • thin - slender

For example, we can say "Tina is quite thin" or "Tina is quite slender." Both sentences will convey the same meaning since "thin" and "slender" are synonyms.

The Myth of Theseus: Hero and Adventurer - Section C Imaginative writing practice
vitfil [10]

Answer:

I don't know if this is a story that you make up, but here you go:

It was years later after Theseus became king. He was noble and wise; caring for his people with such wisdom and power. Everyone admired his cunning character. All except King Minos of Crete, who was outraged to have his daughter married to Theseus without his permission. Not only that, but his tribute over the death of his son hadn't been payed for years.

"I must find a way to kill of Theseus!" he muttered to himself one lonely afternoon. "And once I do, I could take over his land and rule it myself!"

The details played in his mind all night. At last, he ordered his soldiers ready for battle. Having hundreds of his best men onto large, wooden ships to take over the land for their king.

Theseus, as strong and wise he was, was not prepared for this. His people were screaming in the streets of the grand city. Children and women alike were slaughtered without mercy. Outraged, Theseus ordered his soldiers to help defend the city. He himself dressed up in armor to assist his warriors. For those who were not able to fight and had children, were ordered to take shelter in the castle.

Came the moment Theseus confronted King Minos, he demanded, "What is the meaning of this open rebellion?"

"I have come to take revenge on you for taking my daughter from me," King Minos announced. "She was my dearest treasure, and you have taken it from me. I demand she be send back to me."

"You don't deserve her," Theseus snapped.

Minos roared in sudden, raw rage. "Then I will have your head!"

The two kings lashed out. Battle around them was raging; the streets were in chaos. The war lasted for almost an entire day. Theseus and Minos had begun to battle near the rocky cliffs by the shore. They were tired and sore, yes. But neither of them were too keen on giving up fighting for what they cared for dearly. Theseus, however, had an advantage. Aside from his courage and wisdom, he was  much stronger and younger than King Minos. The wheels in his mind began to turn.

They were both near the edge of the cliff when Theseus spoke out: "Alas, there she is! In the water!"

Minos spun around, terrified for his daughter. But no, there was nothing there. Theseus kicked his foe with enough force and power to send King Minos over the edge, sending him to his death. With him now gone, the battle had ended. And there was no one else who dared face Theseus's wrath ever again.

THE END

All it takes is just a bit of creativity. I hope this helps :)

Scene 2 Polonius insists that Hamlet is in love with Ophelia.<br> What does Polonius hope to gain?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Polonius reads the love letter aloud to Gertrude and Claudius for two reasons:

He wants to show that he is a loyal subject, and that he's not trying to get his daughter together with Hamlet—Hamlet, being a royal, won't get much advantage from marrying the daughter of a mere noble. If he reveals the message to them directly, they'll know he is "a man faithful and honorable," as Claudius says.

He wants to get credit for being the one to know why Hamlet is mad. Once he reads the letter, he uses it to explain how Hamlet became mad: "he, repelled...Fell into a sadness, then into a fast...and, by declension / Into the madness wherein now he raves." Claudius was very eager to find out why Hamlet was mad, so being able to give an explanation makes Polonius look good.

His plans after reading the letter are to show the king directly that love is the cause of Hamlet's madness by taking the king to observe a conversation between Ophelia and Hamlet. As it turns out, Hamlet is very mean to Ophelia during this conversation, and the King concludes that he is not in love: "Love? His affections do not that way tend." So Polonius's plan doesn't really succeed.

How does one interpret a written work?
steposvetlana [31]

<u> A. by explaining the meaning of the text</u>

Interpreting is a way to clarify the content of a written work, event, person, or work of art, by explaining its meaning. Some teachers aim to evaluate the comprehension level of their students by asking them to interpret a piece of writing, often in an interpretive essay. In this type of essay, the student's task is to critically analyze the assigned written work, and offer an explanation of all the components of it, and its general meaning.
