It looks like you answered your own question, but they also change the theme of the story from one of abandonment, control, and approval/validation.

Frankenstein creates his monster after his mother dies, leaving him feeling abandoned.

His creation is an attempt to give life without the need for a woman (controlling life).

The monster spends much of the story seeking validation from his creator, who wants nothing to do with him. In some sense, this parallels Victor's inability to cope with his mother's loss, except that Victor is still very much alive. I'm sure many people view this as a religious allegory (God abandoning humans). 

I don't recall catching any of that in the movies. Instead, they turn it into the typical battle against the unknown/unfamiliar. The monster is not understood, and is grotesque looking, so the people want it gone. Of course, none of the pitchforks and torches are ever carried in the novel. 

Of course, there's also the issue of Frankenstein's presentation on screen. In the book, he's clearly described as being yellow; yet, in most of the movies, he's green. Oh, and Frankenstein never yells "it's alive!"

Have you heard about the new plastic bag tax? Wonderful, don't you think? It's an easy and straightforward campaign that you can
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Rhetorical Questions, Emotive Language, and Calls to action.

Explanation:

 "It's an easy and straightforward campaign that you can support without even thinking about it, isn't it?" Calls to action, because they are telling you to support it, without thinking no less.

"Have you heard about the new plastic bag tax?" Obviously, a rhetorical question, the next question could also be considered rhetorical.

"Wonderful, don't you think?" Is emotive language, because it showcases the writer's opinion, and almost making you agree with them from the context.

Hope this helps, have a nice day!

In which sentence is the word exiting a gerund? After visiting hours, people were exiting as quietly as possible. Check the smok
Elden [556K]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option. It is in the sentence "We were stuck in the parking lot behind all the exiting cars." that the word exiting is a gerund. Gerunds<span> are words that are formed with verbs but act as nouns. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
