Answer:

The novel is chock full of themes; forgiveness, redemption, the meaning of friendship, identity and how change is possible.

Explanation:

One of the major themes in the book Restart by Gordon Korman is change. Restart is a novel written by Gordon Korman in 2017. The book tells the story of Chase Ambrose, a popular star of the school's football team. Most students fear him, especially Joel Weber, because Ambrose behaves like a bully.I'd start an analysis of Restart with the book's themes. Through Chase Ambrose's eyes, we see that who you used to be doesn't have to be who you always are. His past bullying behavior shapes how people view him after his accident, but his kind and understanding post-accident behavior eventually convince the other characters that the new Chase doesn't want to live like the old.  

Another theme is the impact of bullying, not only on those bullied but on the bullies themselves. Being a bully changes the relationships Chase is able to have with his family members and with kids his own age. His stepmother doesn't trust him, his half-sister is afraid of him, potential good friends don't want anything to do with him, and his so-called friends don't have anything in common with him except the desire to wound others. As a bully, Chase has limited himself, but he'd probably never have realized it without the accident.

Answer:

This question is incomplete, but from what I can find online, you are referring to the definition of introspection.

Explanation:

Introspection is an act of self-awareness that involves thinking and analyzing your own thoughts and behaviors, being one of the defining characteristics of the human being.

We are naturally curious about ourselves. We repeat our own experiences and actions in the hope of understanding who and how we are, but the term is also used to refer to an experimental technique that consists of analyzing one's thoughts and feelings in a structured and rigorous way. Therefore, when we speak of introspection, we may be talking about the informal process of reflecting on oneself or the formal method used in experimental research in psychology many years ago.

One of the themes of this passage is "appearances can be deceiving." How does the character of Raul demonstrate this theme?
Sliva [168]

Answer:

I think B is more appropriate for this theme mainly because he would've thought Vera was not a good person because of her appearance and this theme sounds more appropriate to a person.

Hope this helps! :)
