Read this excerpt from Frankenstein: . . . I darted up towards my own room. My hand was already on the lock of the door before I

recollected myself. I then paused; and a cold shivering came over me. I threw the door forcibly open . . . but nothing appeared. I stepped fearfully in: the apartment was empty; and my bedroom was also freed from its hideous guest. I could hardly believe that so great a good fortune could have befallen me; but when I became assured that my enemy had indeed fled, I clapped my hands for joy, and ran down to Clerval. Which words best describe the overall tone of this passage? A. Curious and joyful B. Thoughtful and serious C. Troubled and brooding D. Excited and relieved

Answer: D) Excited and relieved.

Explanation: The tone of a text or sentence is the author's or speaker's attitude towards the audience, the subject or even the characters of the text. There are many different kinds of tones, like: positive, negative, objective, sad, angry, etc. In the given passage from "Frankenstein" by Mary Shelley we can see that the overall tone is excited and relieved, we can clearly see this in the phrase " but when I became assured that my enemy had indeed fled, I clapped my hands for joy, and ran down to Clerval."

I believe it was because of the raw violence and just oddity that was seen in the book, back then it was not common to go see a movie that had so much killing, much less read a book where you get chosen and stoned to death. That age was a little more innocent. Hope this helps.

Which two characters does Achebe describe as being “ill-fated” in Things Fall Apart.
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Chinua Achebe describes Unoka and Okonkwo as ill-fated

Explanation:

In Chapter 3 of Things Fall Apart, Achebe writes:

Unoka was an ill-fated man. He had a bad chi or personal god, and evil fortune followed him to the grave, or rather to his death, for he had no grave. He died of the swelling which was an abomination to the earth goddess...He was carried to the Evil Forest and left to die.

Okonkwo attempts to determine his own fate. Knowing his father was a failure, he works the yam fields twice as hard to compensate. However, Okonwko is also a character in a tragedy, both personal and cultural (both he and his tribe will "fall apart" and die). In tragedies, characters are engineered for a downfall. Obviously, as a character, Okonkwo has no control over his and his tribe's death. Yet, Okonkwo fights to the death, regardless. So, in a way, he chooses his fate by beheading the messenger. He chooses to be placed in a situation which allows him to be aggressive and violent so as to cause his own self-destruction by violent means.
