Answer: A )to illustrate Japan’s isolation in the 1800s

The author starts the paragraph by telling us that Japan was isolated during the 1800s. He goes on to introduce an outside source (Stephen Sondheim's musical tableau) as a way to back up this assertion. Although this might seem unnecessary, his reason for including it is to illustrate Japan's isolation during this time period. The source shows how other countries thought about Japan's situation, and it provides evidence for the author's claim.

Which sentence best describes the excerpt from William Shakespeare’s sonnet 130?
slega [8]
The correct answer is A. The poet uses unusual metaphors to imply the intensity of his love. Basically, what he does is compare her looks to various things that are generally considered to be beautiful and then he states that she's nothing like that but that he still loves her. This is even better because it's easy to love things that are appealing, however, he loves her even though she might not be as visually appealing.

n200080 [17]

The wealthy owner of wide stretches of hunting grounds and forest in the Carpathian Mountains, Ulrich most closely guards one particular strip of forest because Georg Znaeym also claims ownership over it. In Ulrich’s grandfather’s time, his family used the court to seize the land from the neighboring Znaeym family, who the Gradwitzs believed illegally possessed the land. The Znaeyms never accepted the court’s decision, and have continued to hunt in the forest patch. Ulrich has become even more devoted to protecting the land and defeating the Znaeyms than the earlier generations of his family were. He roams the forest with a posse of men and his rifle, hoping to shoot Georg instead of game. However, when Ulrich is finally alone with Georg, a near-death experience causes Ulrich to rethink his priorities, and offer peace and friendship to his life-long rival.

What is the protagonist main motivation for the way he or she acts.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

 This question is incomplete since you have not provided a specific text, but anyway I will give you an answer that will be useful.

Explanation:

The motivation of a character is one of the fundamental elements when writing a story. Motivation is always relevant, but especially when it comes to the protagonist.

Motivation is what is behind every action that your protagonist undertakes. And its importance lies in the fact that it helps the reader understand why the character does what he does.

Without motivation, any narrative, be it a novel or a story, would be no more than the more or less attractive description of some facts.
