The correct answer is C.

An allusion is a reference to a well-known person, place, or thing that exists outside of the literary work. A biblical allusion is simply a reference to a well-known person, place, or thing from the Bible.

Here, the story of Cain and Abel (a biblical story that everyone would recognize) is being referenced. Here, an allusion to Cain is made to explain the origin of Grendel.

Explain the following quote:

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Explanation:

This quotation connects to the theme because it represents the censorship that the government in the novel Fahrenheit 451 believes to be good. The quote is from Captain Beatty and it explains his point of view on censoring citizens. Captain Beatty believes that giving the civilians little knowledge of the world is best for the city and that if they were to gain knowledge, it would only create problems because the citizens would be able to question authority and make decisions that could cause harm to one another. This quote relates to the overall theme because it explains the force that Montag is working against and emphasizes his individuality because it describes the norm of society in believing that censorship yields the best results for a harmonic society. Montag is different because he questions society and begins to make his own decisions through gaining knowledge in books. He believes that in order to become happy, not only politically but in every aspect of life, he must explore the world and understand all sides of a question before he can make his own decision. Montag's desire to go against Captain Beatty's rules demonstrates the theme because his inclination to understand the world drives his goal and fuels his rebellion against the law in the interest of living a better life. Captain Beatty's opinion on the censorship of citizens is important to the theme because his opinion is what drives Montag to pursue knowledge in books and acts as an opposing force in the way of Montag's pursuit of a happy life. The quote demonstrates Beatty's reasons behind censoring the citizens. He believes that if the citizens were to gain knowledge they would worry and it would cause problems within the city. The quote connects to the theme by representing the reasoning behind censorship and the motivating force driving Montag to escape government restriction in order to pursue knowledge and understand the world.

Graphic Analysis:

I chose the image of a baby to represent this quote from Fahrenheit 451 because baby's needs are taken care of and they have no need to worry about the world. Babies are innocent and oblivious to the world around them. Their minds are not developed and therefore they don't have the ability to understand what is occurring around them. The baby represents the quote because it symbolizes the happiness Captain Beatty is talking about. The Captain says in order to keep people happy, they must not be worried. The baby represents this because it has no need to worry and doesn't have the ability to question it's surroundings. Babies have comfortable lives because they have all their needs taken care of similar to the citizens in Fahrenheit 451 who have food, shelter, and fancy technology to keep them busy. The happy baby is symbolic of the happy citizens because it doesn't understand life and doesn't question anything. The baby represents the politically happy, brainwashed members of society because as long as the citizens are kept satisfied with fancy technology and other distracting material goods, they stay happy and oblivious to their censorship, just like how babies are kept satisfied with distracting items such as pacifiers and rattle toys to keep them distracted from their real issue.

This person had to be around fifty and had to be short and bald. Patol Babu could not believe it, he never thought that something like this could happen to him at his age. Before his knowledge in the performance and wanting to know more details of his participation, Patol Babu was going to contact Naresh Dutt.

After the offering of the role Patol Babu began to remember his past as an actor when he played in theaters as the main actor. Before he used to live in Kanchrapara and worked in a railway factory. After mute to Calcutta since he had been offered a better position, in which he remained for nine years. During that time he wanted to start again with the performance but it was impossible, the company in which he worked reduced his staff to reduce expenses and Patol Babu was one of them. After that I fight to make a living: from opening a store and working as an insurance salesman.

Finally, Naresh Dutt arrives at Patol's house claiming that Patol was the person who was looking for the role and that he had to go to the Faraday house to start filming at the next day. After Naresh left, Patol told his wife what he had achieved. For his performance he was paid but his passion for the performance was stronger but his wife told him to get scared because we still had nothing materialized.

The next day arriving at the place there were a hundred people and a large production that were already beginning to film. Patol asked Dutt what his dialogue was because he wanted to start practicing and acting as best as possible, so Dutt gives him a sheet that said the word 'oh'. Surprised Patol could not believe what he was seeing, he thought he was being teased. Then he walked away sad from the place. Sitting and thoughtful, he began to remember what his mentor Gogon Pakrashi had said to him at the time: No paper is small and you should be grateful for the opportunity you are given. After that he reconsidered his role and dialogue and started practicing the different ways of saying 'oh'. After practicing he went to the set to know when it was his turn to act. Patol waited and at the time of recording he played his role correctly. He felt that his mentor was proud of him and his performance made him feel so good that he did not need the money in comparison to his satisfaction for acting, so he left the place without the money.
