In "Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes, the protagonist Charlie Gordon is a special needs man who agrees to undergo an experiment that is meant to increase his intelligence. The narrative is composed of Charlie's progress reports, which at first reflects his low intelligence through limited vocabulary and incorrect writing. The author's language changes according to Charlie's mental progression; his grammar and spelling improve significantly, and his vocabulary increases.

Answer:

SAMPLE ANSWER: In the beginning of the story, Charlie's journal is filled with spelling mistakes, and his entries look like they were written by a young child. After his surgery, his writing slowly improves. He also starts to see and understand what is going on around him. However, even though he is becoming smarter, he also feels isolated and lonely.

What are some of the answers that people in Berkeley give when asked how many bells there are in the Campanile?
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Finished in 1914, the Campanile is the world's third-largest bell-and-clock tower, with 61 bells in the carillon that weigh from 19 to 10,500 pounds and are rung three times a day.

Explanation:

There are 53 bells that make up the carillon in the Campanile. The largest one--the bell that chimes the hour--weighs 7 tons and has rung almost 2 million times. Most bell towers have between one and five bells, but a single tower might hold dozens. Sather Tower (1914), known to most as the Campanile, is perhaps UC Berkeley's most famous symbol. Visible for miles, it stands 307 feet tall and is the third tallest bell and clock tower in the world.

How do Danforth’s and Hathorne’s reactions to Giles Corey’s interruption of the court proceedings differ? What does it say about
Nikolay [14]

Answer and Explanation:

When they are judging Martha Corey for witchcraft, the lawsuit is interrupted by Giles Corey who shouts that he has evidence that Martha is not a witch and that she has been wrongly accused. To contain this scandal, Giles is taken to another room and some men decide to speak to him, among these men are Danforth and Hathorne who, despite being shocked by the interruption, showed very different reactions, which say a lot about the personality of each one.

Danforth reacts in an extremely calm and focused manner, he does not believe that Corey has enough evidence to reverse the outcome of the trial. This calmness is the result of the reputation that Danforth created in being affectionate with witches, he knows that nobody will stop believing in him to believe in Giles.

Hathorne, on the other hand, does not have such a good reputation and questions Giles for this behavior, as well as reproaching him for "roarin" and causing a scene in court. Hathorne is nervous and afraid that he will not be effective in a trial and that it will damage his reputation.
