Think about the theme of the story "Sixteen."

English
1 answer:
nalin [4]3 years ago
4 0
The message that Maureen Daly conveys in the story "Sixteen" is that in affairs of the heart it is best to use your head to temper the feelings of the heart. The main character says, "My heart still prays but my mind laughs. Finally, mind wins!" "Sixteen" is a story of unrequited love. The young girl in the story feels the young man she yearns for is different; he really has feelings for her. But, he never calls, and he ends up being like so many other young men she has fallen for. “I know what the stars knew all the time—he’ll never, never call—never,” she realizes. The message is an age old one that many young people learn over and over as they grow to use reason when dealing with love as opposed to using only their feelings, which run the gamut of love and passion, to anger, and finally to reason and moving on.

What do waterbury residents observations reveal about people's feelings and behavior toward fortune?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The observations by Waterbury residents reveals that they never felt Fortune was a true human.

Explanation:

'Fortune's Bone' is a historical writing by Pamela Espeland. The writing reveals about Fortune, an African-American slave owned by Dr. Porter. It is said that Dr. Porter reserved Fortune's body after his death to study anatomy of human being.

The paragraph 18 of the text reveals that the residents of Waterbury never felt that Fortune was truly a human being. After he was founded and given to the museum, his skeleton was named 'Larry' and was considered to be a war hero.

Thus there were many stories created regarding the Fortune's bones that residents of Waterbury hardly imagined that he was truly a human being.
