Which sentence belongs in an objective summary of Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl?
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Third Option: Anne Frank and her family go into hiding in the cramped attic of a warehouse for two agonizing years to escape the horrors of Nazi occupation in Amsterdam.

Explanation:

Objective means something which is tangible, measurable, and concrete. If statement(s) includes something which is based on perceptions, interpretations, emotions opinions etc., it will become subjective.

First statement has many subjective phrases, e.g <em>timeless story, perceptive recounting, living in hiding</em> (with no mention of place). So, it is subjective statement and not objective.

Second option has subjective phrases e.g <em>unusual insight</em><em>, </em><em>thoughts and experiences.</em>

Fourth option has subjective phrases e.g <em>thoughts and experiences,  living in hiding (with no mention of place)</em>.

Third option had no subjective phrases and everything/fact told is objective i.e <em>Anne Frank and her family, cramped attic of a warehouse,  for two agonizing years</em>. So, this option is correct as objective summary.

Select the aphorism that best expresses the following sentiment: Be careful to whom you tell your secrets because they can betra
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

To whom thy secret thou dost tell, to him thy freedom thou dost sell.

Explanation:

An aphorism is a saying, proverb, or maxim that expresses a general truth or life principle. They are also taken, at times, as mottos or ideals of life.

The given aphorism <em>"Be careful to whom you tell your secrets because they can betray you" </em>can be best expressed by the saying <em>"to whom thy secret thou dost tell, to him thy freedom thou dost sell"</em>. This sentence expresses the same sentiment of being careful about telling one's secrets to anyone, for it is the same as giving them the keys to one's happiness or sadness, one's freedom. <em><u>They can either keep the secret and give you freedom or reveal the secrets and ruin you</u></em>.

Thus, the correct answer is the last/ fourth option.

Joanne is 44 and has recently been second guessing and reevaluating her religious and political beliefs. According to the text,
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

- Identity versus role confusion.

Explanation:

'Identity versus role confusion' is illustrated as the fifth stage or phase of Erik Erikson's theory of 'psycho-social development' among the adolescent kids aging between 12 to 19 years of age. At this stage, adolescents tend to develop a recognition/sense of their 'selves' and affiliate it to their identity. In this phase, they experience a 'determinative' conflict as at this stage the success is affiliated with a tendency to stay faithful to their selves(identity) while the failure ends up in 'role confusion'.  

As per the question, Joanne would likely be in this phase as she is going through the phase of 'developmental conflict' and suffers 'role confusion' as reflected by 'her revaluation of religious and political beliefs'. She tends to hold her 'self' and 'identity' over the confusions. Thus, she is going through '<u>Identity versus role confusion</u>' crisis stage of adulthood.
