The correct answer is:  

The shifts reinforce the emotional extremes in Arsat's tale.

In "The Lagoon" (1896), a short story by Joseph Conrad, "Tuan" (meaning Lord or Sir) is a white man traveling through a rainforest in Indonesia. He will have to stay for one night with his remote Malay friend named Arsat, who is distraught because his lover is dying.

svetlana [45]

Answer: With his description of nature during a typical evening, Thomas Gray contrasts the images of life with those of death.

Explanation:

The poem "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard" by Thomas Gray deals with various themes, the most important of which is death. Death is presented as inevitable - it awaits all of us, whether we are rich or poor, high or low. The very setting of the poem gives it a somber tone - the creatures in the woods head towards their shelters, the farmer returns home with the herd. The speaker describes the trees under which country people rest in peace. The tone of the poem is melancholic, which perfectly portrays the theme of death. The image of the farmer and the animals which return to their rest is contrasted to that of the dead buried in the churchyard, which indicates that death is as natural as life.

What do butterflies represent in lord of the flies?
bezimeni [28]

The Lord of The Flies symbolize Simon’s happiness, his peace and calmness with nature, the forest, and the boys and there current situation, how Simon travels to the forest to relax and be calm unlike the other boys who are scared to travel alone in the forest. They show how everything is not evil on the island, and are actually the opposite of the lord of the flies and the boys who act savagely. On page 151 there is a quote that shows how the butterflies try to avoid the evil and travel to a more tranquil and peaceful place, “Even the butterflies deserted the open space where the obscene thing grinned and dripped”. Also this quote shows how the boys are not only becoming more savage and evil, but also their sexual need, "Then Jack found the throat and the hot blood spouted over his hands. The sow collapsed under them and they were heavy and fulfilled upon her. The butterflies still danced, preoccupied in the center of the clearing." The butterflies also symbolize the immortal soul of the island meaning that the island will never die, no matter what the boys do or the world will do it.
