According to the statement above: "Dietrich's experience in this passage demonstrates which of the following themes:

"I can't believe we got stuck with Dietrich as a lab partner," groaned Grable.

"What rotten luck," Bacall agreed. "Maybe Dr. Hayworth will let us switch groups."

"Here he comes, you guys," warned Monroe. "Try to be nice to him. How would you feel if you were the new student in school?"

"He isn't just a new student," Grable said. "He was kicked out of his last school for cheating on an exam. Do you want your grade to depend on a cheater?"

"I want to be a nice person more than I want to get an A," Monroe said with a stubborn look on her face.

"What do you guys think about this project?" asked Dietrich as he approached the girls. "It looks pretty tough to me, but I think we're up to the challenge."

"As long as we keep everything nice and ethical, we should be fine," Bacall replied with an insincere smile. Dietrich's face turned bright red, and he cleared his throat.

"I guess you've heard about my past," he said with a sigh. "I was hoping that I could make a fresh start at this school."

"Why don't you tell us your side of the story?" suggested Monroe.

"I made a wrong decision last year and cheated on a math exam," Dietrich admitted. "My teacher caught me, and I was kicked out of school. I'll never do anything like that again, I swear. In fact, I spent all summer volunteering with the Inner City Tutoring Program. I've changed my ways, and I hope that people can start to forget about the past. Everyone has been saying nasty things about me behind my back, and I don't have a single friend here. It's been a lonely few weeks."

"Everyone else at this school may think of you as a cheater, but from now on, we'll consider you a friend," promised Monroe.

"We can do even better than that," Grable said. "We can start spreading the truth around school instead of lies. By this time next week, everyone will know what kind of person you really are, Dietrich."

"Thanks, guys," replied Dietrich with a grateful smile.

a. A new school is the best place to start over.

b. Gossip can have a negative impact on people.

c. Peer pressure often results in bad choices.

d. People are always willing to believe the best"

The answer is: B. Gossip can have a negative impact on people.

Hope this helps.

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Excerpt from A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens

The new era began; the king was tried, doomed, and beheaded; the Republic of Liberty, Equality, Fraternity, or Death, declared for victory or death against the world in arms; the black flag waved night and day from the great towers of Notre Dame....

There was no pause, no pity, no peace, no interval of relenting rest, no measurement of time. Though days and nights circled as regularly as when time was young, and the evening and morning were the first day, other count of time there was none. Hold of it was lost in the raging fever of a nation, as it is in the fever of one patient. Now, breaking the unnatural silence of a whole city, the executioner showed the people the head of the king—and now, it seemed almost in the same breath, the head of his fair wife which had had eight weary months of imprisoned widowhood and misery, to turn it grey....

A revolutionary tribunal in the capital, and forty or fifty thousand revolutionary committees all over the land; a law of the Suspected, which struck away all security for liberty or life, and delivered over any good and innocent person to any bad and guilty one; prisons gorged with people who had committed no offence, and could obtain no hearing; these things became the established order and nature of appointed things, and seemed to be ancient usage before they were many weeks old. Above all, one hideous figure grew as familiar as if it had been before the general gaze from the foundations of the world—the figure of the sharp female called La Guillotine.

It was the popular theme for jests; it was the best cure for headache, it infallibly prevented the hair from turning grey, it imparted a peculiar delicacy to the complexion, it was the National Razor which shaved close: who kissed La Guillotine, looked through the little window and sneezed into the sack. It was the sign of the regeneration of the human race. It superseded the Cross. Models of it were worn on breasts from which the Cross was discarded, and it was bowed down to and believed in where the Cross was denied.

How do the historical conditions of this period  affect this excerpt from the novel?

The relentless violent horror of the Reign of Terror expresses itself in the long, gruesomely detailed descriptions

The fact that there is terror in all periods of history is revealed in the description of the Reign of Terror continuing night and day without a pause

The rightness of the cause of the revolution is proven by the description of the thousands of revolutionary committees that sprang up

Dickens's lack of understanding of the revolution's horror is shown in his comical description of the guillotine.

Answer:

The fact that there is terror in all periods of history is revealed in the description of the Reign of Terror continuing night and day without a pause

Explanation:

The text shown above may influence the novel as a whole, due to its declaration of terror and constant violence. In all periods of the text we can see descriptions of terror situations, which, as the text itself presents, happened day and night, without pause or relief.

With this, this text can give the novel a sense of urgency, despair, fear and tiredness, showing that something really uncomfortable was happening in the place and that it influences the narrative efficiently.

german

Something bad is in the air....something bad is coming. Something bad is going to happen.

Remember to obey the ghost.

Watch the King. If he shows remorse, let me know. If he does not show remorse, then should I kill him?

Explanation:

It is interesting to note that Claudis is crying out for help as he dies.

Hamlet does not want Horatio to ever talk about seeing the ghost. Let Hamlet die knowing about the ghost, but do not speak of it, or they will think you are crazy too. Stay alive.
