Which part of the excerpt from Voltaire’s candide best develops the theme that different people find value in different things

English

Papessa [141]3 years ago
7 0

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question is incomplete because it does not include any text of reference, we can say the following.

The part of the excerpt from Voltaire’s Candide best develops the theme that different people find value in different things is this one:<em> "We desire nothing of your Majesty," says Candide, "but a few sheep laden with provisions, pebbles, and the earth of this country." The King laughed. "I cannot conceive," said he, "what pleasure you Europeans find in our yellow clay, but take as much as you like, and great good may it do you."</em>

This surprised the King because he couldn't conceive the idea that Candide would prefer simpler things instead of more fancy ones. But that is true. Different people prefer different things. You do cannot anticipate that people would be happy with luxurious things when maybe they prefer the simple things in life.

This is part of the book "Candide," written by French philosopher Voltaire in 1759.

kkurt [141]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Due to the unfavourable conditions peasants are exposed to, they easily grasp the harsh realities of life such as death. Also, in their community they learned to care for one another because they have one another's back, unlike the bourgeoisie/ educated elites who only care about themselves and keeping to their social levels. For such people around Ivan, his illness and impending death has become bothersome, and he realized the superficiality of that society.

Yearly is the adverb.

An adverb is a word that modifies verbs, adjectives and other adverbs. In this case "yearly" is modifying "migrate" which is a verb.

tatiyna
The poets description of trees, beetles,flowers, pastures, and a sunset affects the tone and conveys the central theme of the poem ''Elegy, written in a country churchyard'' by giving the poem a somber and almost reverently sorrowful tone, it goes with the theme of being written in a''country churchyard'' where there is the dead that has been buried and the feelings the poet must have felt while writing this of deep respect for the nature that surrounded him, tells us that the poet must have experienced loss. i hope this answer helped, although it is only an opinion, i reviewed the poem from ''Cliff notes'' have a great day!
