ra1l [238]3 years ago
4 0

Beowulf's body is taken to Hronesness, where his funeral pyre is burned and his funeral mound is constructed. The mound is filled with the treasure that Beowulf won from the dragon and all of the Geats gather around to lament the death of their lord.

He wanted a funeral pyre so he could fill it with his treasures ;)

Answer:

Since the narrator did this as an act of selfishness, he should be blamed guilty for Doodle's death.

Explanation:

During the course of the story, we could see many moments where the inner thoughts and feelings of the narrator are described to the reader. We also get a character named Doodle, which we know has a disability and was different. We know that the narrator had pride, and didn't want to be ashamed for having a brother different from others. We also notice that the narrator was sometimes cruel to Doodle, like when he threatened to leave him unless he touched his own coffin, made when he was expected to die at birth.

The narrator was selfish and prideful and wanted Doodle to be capable, and like others before going to school. When walking, he would quicken his pace or make Doodle swim till he turned blue, or run till he turned red.

In the last scene (which is the scene where Doodle dies), the narrator quickens his pace and runs through the pouring rain, despite Doodle's fear and tiredness. This shows us that the Narrator doesn't appreciate Doodle as he is, and wants Doodle to be someone normal, to not be ashamed.

Therefore, since the narrator did this as an act of selfishness, he should be blamed guilty for Doodle's death.

In how many rearrangements of the word prejudice, is the letter j positioned in between the 2 es?.
frutty [35]

PREJUDICE

Rearrangements where the letter J is positioned in between the two Es

Letters in the word PREJUDICE= 5

Vowels in the word PREJUDICE= 4

Repetition of E= 2 times

Thus, Rearranging something or someone, or being in the process of doing so, is what the word "REARRANGEMENT" means.

Total arrangements= 9! × 2!

= 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 × 2 × 1

= 1,81,440

When it is positioned between two E's it will be- EJE

Thus, now total letters = 7

= 7!

= 7 ×  6 ×  5 ×  4 ×  3 ×  2 ×  1

= 5040

The rearrangements are 5040.
