I'd like to clarify the choices presented:
-an end to great suffering
-a time of great pain and sorrow
-the helplessness of humans
-the promise of a new beginning
the answer to the question is 'the promise of new beginning'. Viewed in the light of other images that Steinbeck uses, Rose of Sharon's pregnancy likely symbolizes a new beginning.
Answer:
Strict, rigid, rigorous, stringent imply inflexibility, severity, and an exacting quality. Strict implies great exactness, especially in the observance or enforcement of rules: strict discipline.
This is false. Novels of incidents focus on a certain event, or an incident, and deal with its introduction, its apex, and its resolution. The analysis of the incident and the behavior of people regarding that incidents are what matters. Novels of social customs are usually highly realistic and don't feature that many incidents.
An example of <u>product placement</u> <span>is when tom hanks is shown stranded on an island with a FedEx box in the movie Cast Away.
Probably FedEx paid the movie producers to be there, so that they could advertise their company in the movie. The more people see the movie, the more of them will see the FedEx logo, and be reminded of the existence of that company, and they will be more eager to use it.
