In this article about "Doing Something is Nothing" by Anna Quindlen, she explains that American children lack downtime nowadays because their parents schedule their activities every single day. There should be a day wherein they do nothing because it increases the level of creativity that they need.

1. How would you describe the tone and purpose<br> of these excerpts from McNeil's oral history?
Setler [38]

Answer:

<u>the tone</u> used in McNeil's oral history<u> is confessional</u> and <u>the purpos</u>e seems to be that by making simple, humble statements the narrator is able to <u>present his own morality and his struggles in statements and not as pleadings</u>.

Explanation:

these excerpts are from a<u> narrator who comes from a marginalized community engaging in a protest against the government</u>. this kind of oration is known as <u>deceptively simple</u>.

on the surface, the text seems uninviting and simplistic. but the layer of rebellion is subdued by the matter of factly tone to become more of a defiance to which the common person can easily identify and sympathize with. It also s<u>hows the strength of the narrator</u> by not betraying their emotions to the reader.

In your opinion, is the Ancient Mariner's punishment for killing the Albatross fair? Whose fate is worse, the Ancient Mariner's
OverLord2011 [107]

This question seems to be deficient. However, there´s enough information to find the right answer.

Answer:

In my opinion, the Ancient Mariner's punishment was fair, and his fate was worse than the sailors'.

Explanation:

In The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (1798), by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, assuming that the sailors' punishment was death, even though we are not certain about what final fate their souls had after that, their suffering could be thought of as less than the Ancient Mariner's, who is left alive but cursed with an awful fate.

Both the sailors and the Ancient Mariner are at fault for killing the bird that had saved them because the sailors praised him afterward. However, the main fault rests in the Ancient Mariner, who did the actual killing, and must carry the burden of being responsible for the death of his crewmembers.
