When Faulkner states that "the past is a huge meadow which no winter ever quite touches" he uses

1 answer:

7 0

When Faulkner states that "the past is a huge meadow which no winter ever quite touches", he uses two very important literary resources.

The first of it is the symbolism when he says that the past is a meadow. In real life, the past, which is intangible, could never be a meadow. First of all, because a meadow is tangible, and then because the past is a stage in our lives, while a meadow is a geographic feature.

The second literary resource is personalisation. He uses it when he infers that winter has the ability of touching things or people. In this case he specifies that it can't touch the past, with which he implies that winter has such human ability.

Why would admitting a mistake be disastrous for law enforcement? Is there a way to fix this?

stira [4]

Answer:

Read Exp:

Explanation:

(I'll use arresting and convicting someone for a crime they didn't commit and putting them in prison then finding the real crook.)

So if they were to admit that they arrested the wrong guy the public would be outraged as well as the department would be looked down on and they could possibly even be sued. Their reputation as justice seekers would be ruined practically. Some ways they fix this is compensate the people with money for getting it wrong.

Hope this explains it well enough.

What is more positive? pilgrimage or vacation? for connotation purposes btw

hjlf

Answer:

I would choose pilgrimage because not only am I fulfilling Gods commands, I'm creating a credit in the hereafter.

If I got to Hawaii or like some random vacation, I'm only doing it for myself. Not for my soul, my physical health, my mental health or my spiritual health.

It just looks like a waste of time compared to pilgrimage. Of course, vacations are fun and all. But if you put pilgrimage and vacation on a scale, pilgrimage should way more in your priorities.

Always put God first because satan will never care as much as Him.

Which sentence uses commas to correctly separate items in a series?

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The third sentence applies the usage of commas well

Explanation:

coz...

Douglas packed his suitcase for the audition, with two pairs of pants, four shirts, several pairs of socks and his trumpet. ---> a comma should've been used, corrected version--> ...of socks, and his trumpet

Jerry filled his backpack with a change of clothes, a flashlight his sleeping bag, snacks and water for his hike in the mountains.

For this sentence, the comma should have been used between flashlight and his sleeping bag---> the corrected version would be-.....a flashlight, his sleeping bag, snacks and water for his hike in the mountains.

Ashley packed a bathing suit and wrap, sunscreen, sun hat, sandals, and a good mystery book for her day at the beach.---> A comma could have been used here instead of "and"

so ya, here's the ans...hope it helps!
