"Sacrifice is a virtue to be valued" as it relates to "Gift of the Magi."

English

MariettaO [177]3 years ago

Sacrifice is a virtue to be valued because it is one way of expressing deep love to your loved ones. You would rather suffer a bit of self-disappointment to make your loved ones happy. 

In the story "Gift of the Magi", Della sacrificed her hair to buy her husband a platinum fob chain for his watch, as her Christmas gift to him. Unknown to her, James sold off his watch, to buy her a set of combs she has been lusting for so long. 

Both items were of great value to each of them, but they each sacrificed it to buy gifts that they believed will give happiness to each other, and to show how much they love one another.

Milla found the following evidence for her literary analysis of Robert Frost’s poem “The Road Not Taken.”
jenyasd209 [6]

<em>A claim that is able to support this evidence may be;</em>

C. In “The Road Not Taken,” Robert Frost addresses the theme that an insignificant choice can have a significant effect.

<u>The speaker says in the poem that the roads were basically the same. There is no questioning that the speaker did or did not take the road that was less traveled, because he did not. He believed they were the same. </u>

<u>As for the sigh, it can be interpreted in different ways, except, the sigh and the last stanza cannot be interpreted as if the speaker is happy because he took the unpopular and less traveled path. That idea is not presented at all in the poem. </u>

Option B caught my attention and led me to believe it may or not be the correct answer as well.

<u>Nevertheless, the speaker states that he shall be telling this with a sigh because there is a certain amount of regret. </u>

<u>The speaker is telling this with a sigh because he could not take both roads.</u>

You can also ask yourself, <em>"Why is it called The Road Not Taken" and not "The Road Taken"</em> ?

The sigh seems to be a sigh of regret.

“A quilt of a country” is best described as what kind of text?
Mashutka [201]

The correct option is 2)Argumentative: In an argumentative text you discuss a subject or problem from different perspectives. At this time, Anna Quindlen the author of "A quilt of a country" states that although the great diversity found in America creates a lot of problems in the cities, it also serves as a quality to make America more special, and for this she uses a literature metaphor: Quilt, to put into other perspective her intention in the text. Although the author recurs to real episodes happend in America It's not autobiografical because doesn't talk about a particular person's life. It's not fictional because most of information is based on real facts, although uses literature metaphors to make the idea clearer.
