<span> In this story, author's use of juxtaposition portrays the main character in great detail through the countless acts of character's realisation and analysis of her life. Lizabeth reflects that she had, “…a strange restlessness of body and of spirit, a feeling that something old and familiar was ending and something unknown and therefore terrifying was beginning" as she grew up and it scared her more and more. She regretted all the bad things she did as a child and the author's use of character vs self  conflict created this suspense and showed how Lizabeth has changed through her experience.</span>

The motif of marigolds is juxtaposed to the grim, dusty, crumbling landscape from the very beginning of the story. They are an isolated symbol of beauty, as opposed to all the mischief and squalor the characters live in. The moment Lizabeth and the other children throw rocks at the marigolds, "beheading" a couple of them, is the beginning of Lizabeth's maturation. The culmination is the moment she hears her father sobbing, goes out into the night and destroys the perfect flowers in a moment of powerless despair. Then she sees the old woman, Miss Lottie, and doesn't perceive her as a witch anymore. Miss Lottie is just an old, broken woman, incredibly sad because the only beauty she had managed to create and nurture is now destroyed. This image of the real Miss Lottie is juxtaposed to the image of her as an old witch that the children were afraid of. Actually, it is the same person; but Lizabeth is not the same little girl anymore. She suddenly grows up, realizing how the woman really feels, and she is finally able to identify and sympathize with her.

In her classroom, Melissa regularly asks students to provide one compliment and one productive critique to one another’s work. S
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

In using the methods described, <em>Melissa is primarily demonstrating her skill as an innovator.</em> <u>The correct answer is C. </u>

Explanation:

I chose this option because, although it is true that this shows that Melissa is also a good implementer, this primarily demonstrates that she is an innovator. In this case, she created a new method, she thinks it is good for the students to learn how to observe other's work and, at the same time, learn how to receive and accept other’s opinions on our own work, taking it as a constructive critique. She also does it herself, and this is a novelty as well, she practices what she preaches because she clearly believes in this method. <u><em>This method is totally new, it is not common in the teaching process</em></u> and that is mainly why she is demonstrating her skills as an innovator.

How does paraphrasing help readers understand poetry?
Sliva [168]

Answer: D. It helps readers understand what the meaning is behind different types of figurative language.

Explanation: Each time you paraphrase something, you are repeating a thought, image, idea, etc., but expressed in a new way; this piece of "new information" about the same topic helps readers figure out the meaning behind other parts of the poem that would otherwise seem more obscure to them.
