In a paragraph of at least three sentences, explain the tone of this excerpt from Little Brother. Provide details from the text
Mrrafil [7]
The author seems almost defeated ("I decided I couldn't run..") but also has a more ethical tone, saying his freedom wasn't worth anything if the city was still under DHS and his friends were still locked up and that his freedom wasn't  as important as a free country.

anzhelika [568]
The title of Oscar Wilde's most successful play. The Importance of Being Earnest features a salient pun in the form of the word "Earnest<span>",

Earnest means </span><span>"<span>honest", and "truthful"

</span></span>At the very beginning of the play, we learn that Jack has created a convenient younger brother named Ernest. We don't know why he comes up with that particular name, but we’re guessing Jack had a laugh or two over it. Jack, Ernest,<span> fools his lady friends, all of whom have an obsession with the name "Ernest." Both Gwendolen and Cecily are in love with that name, based on an assumption that boys named Ernest will be as honest as the name suggests.
</span>
Hope this helps!

How might a theme from Frankenstein, Adam and Eve, and Prometheus and Pandora still be relevant today?
Natali [406]

Answer:

The subtitle to the novel Frankenstein is The Modern Prometheus.  This gives a clear suggestion that scientific discoveries and implementations are double-edged swords; Prometheus gave mankind fire, which can light, cook, and heat or melt, burn and destroy.  In creating the monster, Dr. Frankenstein gives mankind the power of life over death -- both boon and curse.  So it remains with any scientific discovery. The parallel between the monster and cloning is a good one -- guidelines will be in place as the technology advances, not to limit scientific inquiry but to help avoid the monsters that can be created.
