The main themes in “The Monkey's Paw” are fate, the unknown, and grief and loss.
Answer:
B. Foreshadowing.
Explanation:
In chapter 1 of Lord of the Flies, when the plane crashes on the unihabited island, Jack, Ralph, and Simon goes to examine the island to know whether the island is truly inhabited or not.
After they get confirmed that the island is unihabited, they have a great jaunt over the granite cliff. While they are having a fun, over the granite cliff, they find a pig caught in the vines. Jacks inability to kill the pig and his vow to kill it next time he sees is an example of foreshadowing.
This foreshadows the death of Simon, who was killed in a zest by the group led by Jack.
Therefore, option B is correct.
D) Both the poem and the essay would be appropriate to include.
When trying to persuade readers, it is best to use as many rhetorical devices as possible. The rhetorical devices are ethos, pathos, and logos. Ethos is an appeal to ethics. Pathos is an appeal to emotion. And, logos is an appeal to logic. Thus, by including a poem, most likely, pathos will be included because of how poetry is emotional. Additionally, by including facts that support your ethical position of ending child labor, readers’ logical next step would be to support ending it, as well. That said, both the poem and essay would be appropriate to include.
