PLEASE HELP ME!! Explore Dexter's and Judy's feelings for one another in two brief writing tasks.
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

1. For Dexter, Judy Jones is the epitome of the "glittering things and glittering people" of the world of wealth that he covets. It is around her that Dexter creates his "winter dreams." When he first sees the young Judy, Dexter comprehends the power that wealth seems to bestow upon all it touches.

After Dexter makes his fortune, he returns and circumstances bring Judy into his life again, but his dream is ephemeral as she pours kisses upon him when she learns that he is rich, but then flirts with other men. Nevertheless, Dexter "surrendered a part of himself to the most..unprincipled personality with which he had ever come in contact." Judy possesses an excitability that Dexter finds exquisite, but she is only entertained by having her own desires gratified. Despite his disillusions with Judy's world, Dexter cannot be cured of his illusions about Judy.  

After Dexter finally despairs of marrying Judy, he becomes engaged to  Irene Scheerer; yet, Dexter meets Judy again one night when Irene has a headache. Judy has returned from Florida, and seemingly humble, bemoans that she cannot be happy. "I'd like to marry you, if you'll have me, Dexter."  carried off by emotion, Dexter commits himself to his dream. However, it is only a short time before the marriage is over, and Dexter experiences deep pain.  

It is several years later before Dexter hears anything about Judy; when he does, it is from a man named Devlin who describes Judy as a faded beauty who is ill-treated by her husband, but she takes the abuse. Angry and feeling a tremendous sense of loss as though something has been taken from him, Dexter recalls the beauty of her neck, the old promise of her kisses, the "plaintive melancholy" of her lovely eyes--"the dream was gone," that certain magic that the rich held for him is lost, and only the solid realities are left to Dexter Green.

2. Judy Jones is an attractive woman who receives attention from many men throughout the story. Despite her beautiful appearance, she is superficial and callous. She is also an aggressive woman who goes after any man she desires but is not a joyful person. Judy is a fickle woman who is never satisfied. Her beauty is only skin deep, and she turns out to be an unhappy person.

3. To a great extent, insight has been gained into Dexter through their last interactions.  Dexter understands that Judy will not change and that there will not be much in way of a real relationship between both of them.  Dexter recognizes that physical separation is the only way he can be "cured" of his fascination with Judy.  Fitzgerald coincides this with the break of war, suggesting that Dexter was "welcoming the liberation from webs of tangled emotion."  This helps to bring to light how Dexter needed a massive break with his reality laced with Judy.  At this point, the realization gained is that Dexter will end up living his life in some form without Judy.  It will also set up the invariable ending, which, in true Fitzgerald fashion, elevates tragic conditions in the realm of subjectivity.  In terms of what is gained about Judy, the short answer would be that little has changed within her.  She is still the same woman she was in terms of her effect on men and the self- indulgence with which she carries herself.  In terms of both of them, the reader gains the insight that they are meant to pass as two ships in the proverbial emotional night.

I know that these provided paragraphs definitely do not answer your and aren't what you want, but from this provided information for each task, you can write the letters and such based off of this information that I have given you and I think that these pieces of information will help and guide you.

PLEASE HELP i need 2 adjectives to describe emperor yuan from “the flying machine”
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: Religious/Pessimism

Explanation:

Since their creation, humans have always had a natural inclination for invention, For instance, utilising stones, they created tools and weapons to increase their efficiency and survival chances. However, humans could have still survived without their inventions such as the wheel and the engine, albeit with a lower quality of life. In, “The Flying Machine,” by Ray Bradbury, new inventions are condemned because they could potentially be used in violence or crime. Emperor Yuan believes that if a civilization functions adequately, new inventions risk the safety of its people unnecessarily.

Emperor Yuan only finds existing natural phenomena and ancient man-made creations miraculous and necessary. Initially, when his servant informs him of a miracle, he assumes that it is the sweet air. In the early morning, “A servant ran across… calling, ‘Oh Emperor, Emperor, a miracle! ’ ‘Yes,’ said the Emperor, ‘the air is sweet this morning’” (Bradbury 1). Emperor Yuan believes that since his kingdom is running smoothly, no more miracles are needed. At the mention of miracles, he assumes it could only be a natural occurrence.

Secondly, Emperor Yuan believes that the finest of all miracles is the repetition of ordinary daily occurrences and he cannot understand how the miracle his servant is speaking of could be something different. After his servant differs from his suggestion of the sweet air being the miracle, he says, “Let me guess – the sun has risen and a new day is upon us. Or the sea is blue. That now is the finest of all miracles” (1). He believes that if his kingdom is functional, it is perfect, and he religiously admires the stable repetition of the sea and sun.

Finally, Emperor Yuan greatly admires the ancient Great Wall of China and appreciates its role in the protection and stability of his own kingdom. Looking at the Great Wall, he describes, “… now taking shape out of the farthest mist in the green hills, that splendid snake of stones which writhed with majesty across the entire land. That wonderful wall which had protected them… ” (2). The Great Wall serves the definitive purpose of protecting China and ensuring the current peace.

Since it helps keep his kingdom stable and out of danger without changing and risking the day-to-day lives of his subjects, he admires it. The Emperor believes that only pre-existing creations with clear purposes and essential resources are important. Emperor Yuan worries about the negative repercussions of the ‘flying machine’, than positive possibilities. Firstly, Emperor Yuan punishes the inventor of the ‘flying machine’ when he does not have an explanation of what he had created it for.

He announces to the private party assembled, “Here is the man who has made a certain machine… and yet asks us what he has created. He does not know it himself. It is only necessary that he create without knowing why he has done so or what this thing will do” (3). Although the ‘flying machine’ had groundbreaking potential, when the inventor does not have a clear purpose for his machine, the Emperor believes he is purposely trying to shake up their lives. Secondly, he is pessimistic that the ‘flying machine’ could be used against him.

Sadly, he says, “Who is to say that some day just such a man, in just such an apparatus of reed and paper might not fly in the sky and drop huge stones upon the Great Wall of China? ”(4) In the Emperor’s mind, his pessimism shields his subjects and the environment against any danger. However, it also prevents him from understanding that the machine could help the people progressively. Cumulatively, the dangerous scenarios from Yuan’s imagination scare him into burning the flying machine in an attempt to destroy any evidence of such a potentially powerful machine.

“‘Hold your tongue. It was all a dream…If ever word passes around, you and the farmer die within the hour…He saw the guards burning the beautiful machine of paper and reeds…’” (5). He is nervous about the knowledge of the ‘flying machine’ existing and causing his subjects to challenge their current lifestyle and for fear of risking his throne and the safety of his kingdom; he burns the creation and its inventor. Emperor Yuan is unable to utilize the ‘flying machine’ for all of its potential, because he cannot see the possibility behind the risk.

Emperor Yuan’s intention to suppress new inventions is to prevent lifestyle revolutions within his kingdom and reduce the possibility of an enemy attack. Inadvertently, he also suppresses all possibilities of advancement in their quality of life. The Emperor believes that all important miracles have already arrived through nature and ancient technology since they are surviving sufficiently with what they have. Unfortunately, Emperor Yuan’s reign leaves his kingdom unable to adapt to any new situations they will face, because they have only ever lived in stability, without risk or progress.
