Love in the May countryside will be like a return to the Garden of Eden.  There is a tradition that our problems are caused by having too many restrictions, by society.  If we could get away from these rules, we could return to a prisitine condition of happiness.  The "free love" movement of the 1960's was a recent manifestation of this utopian belief.  If the nymph would go a-maying with the shepherd, they would have a perfect life.

Raleigh argues that it is not society that taints sexual love.  We are already tainted before we enter society.  Releigh combines carpe diem with tempus fugit in an unusual way.  Normally we should sieze the day because time flies.  Raleigh argues that because time flies, we should NOT sieze the day.

Describe how the author uses suspense to keep readers interested in The Most Dangerous Game​
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Richard Connell used short terse sentences to give a feeling of suspense, making the readers remain focused on the story. Without revealing much, he also ensures that the readers remain focused on the story, hanging by the thread in anticipation of what is to happen. And the projection of enmity, friction between the two hunters, and their need to succeed give the full sense of suspense.

Explanation:

Suspense is the state of feeling uncertain, anxious yet excited over what will happen in the future. This mental feeling helps authors navigate through the story by giving the readers a sense of excitement on what is to happen yet seems uncertain and even at times scared over what will be the outcome.

In Richard Connell's short story "The Most Dangerous Game", the feeling of suspense begins right after Sanger Rainsford got into <em>"Ship Trap Island"</em>. As Whitney puts it,<em> "Sailors have a curious dread of the place"</em> which forebodes an eerie feeling over what is really happening on that island. And then comes the discovery of the "twenty-two" empty cartridge, the print of hunting shoes, the pistol shots he heard, and the screaming sound all provides a suspenseful atmosphere.

Then, when he met with Colonel Zaroff and the game was decided, another suspense begins. Sanger's need to stay safe and avoid detection for three days from the clutches of Colonel Zaroff and his hunting party, the will to kill each other-one to get his freedom and the other to enjoy a game of hunting, all add to the suspense. And throughout all these, the plot-line progresses in succession, without giving away much while at the same time, the short, terse sentences giving us a clue on what is to be expected and how they will be used between the two men pitted against each other.

Rhetorical context in your own words
Digiron [165]

Answer:

Any piece of writing is shaped by external factors before the first word is ever set down on the page. These factors are referred to as the rhetorical situation, or rhetorical context, and are often presented in the form of a pyramid.

Drawing of three two-sided arrows in the shape of a pyramid. Where points meet on top, "Purpose"; bottom left, "Author"; bottom right, "Audience." "Message" is in the middle.

The three key factors–purpose, author, and audience–all work together to influence what the text itself says, and how it says it. Let’s examine each of the three in more detail.

Write a thesis statement about cyber bullying
snow_lady [41]
Cyber Bullying may seem like nothing since there's no physical contact, but in reality it can hurt even more than the actual thing. Behind those monitors are real people with real feelings: some have been driven to depression, some even driven to physical bullying, and some have been driven to suicide.\
