Answer:

Explanation:Hawthorne had very profound connect with his puritan ancestors and thus crafted a work especially "The Scarlett Letter" where he had both admired the strengths and criticized the follies of puritan belief system. <em>He fulfilled both his duties, as a descendent of puritans he highlighted their values of perseverance, integrity, moral courage, inner strength and beliefs in detail and as a writer foregrounded the shallowness of their rigid and prejudicial norms which had split the society not merely based on religion but gender too.</em> He had strictly opposed the stern and repressive nature of the puritans as it left no space for "Individual freedom". Through Dimmesdale and Chillingworth, he represents the firmness and hard work of puritans and through Hester contradicts the very belief system of them. Even after an attempt to fulfill both his responsibilities, Hawthorne keeps the conflict alive as both Dimmesdale and Chillingworth were "sinners" as per their deeds but still considered to be the respectable part of the society while Hester was an "outcast".

Which revision of the first sentence best incorporates the literary term mood? Rainsford is not in the mood to listen to Whitney
hoa [83]

Answer:

I would say Whitney and rainsfords discussion of ship trap island immediately establishes a foreboding mood

Explanation:

Mood in the literary term usually describes more of an atmosphere than a feeling of a character or something of a smaller picture. Mood is referred to like a theme almost so it’s. A much bigger picture than just what a character/person is feeling in a specific moment. So I think that the sentence represents that the best out of all of them

"Fire distinguishes are generally colored redThis statement contains what aspect of language, speakers are asked to avoid?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The aspect of languages contained in the sentence which speakers must avoid is <em>Incorrect Grammar.</em>

Explanation:

The sentence reads -  "Fire<em><u> distinguishes</u></em> are generally colored red"

The correct sentence is - "Fire <em><u>extinguishers</u></em> are generally colored red"

Notice the error. The speaker says <em>distinguishers </em>instead of <em>extinguishers.</em>

The above is an example of grammatical error and must be avoided for sakes of clarity.

Cheers!
