100 POINTS!! Read this excerpt from "Just Another Sunday." I was grounded from seeing Jay for a month. Sometimes I would see him

in the hallway, and he'd give me a small, embarrassed smile. Every day I could see him changing: His hair was growing longer, and he’d ripped his jeans like Peter's. Which statement best describes the pacing of this excerpt? 1. The fast pace moves the story forward to reveal the narrator's progress. 2. The fast pace moves the story forward to reveal Jay's transformation. 3.The slow pace allows the author to reveal Jay's thoughts and feelings. 4.The slow pace allows the author to reveal the narrator's embarrassment.

Some may argue that Grendel is “resentment
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

I do not agree with this argument.

Explanation:

Grendel is portrayed as an animalistic, wild and cruel creature. We can see that Grendel has little rationality and, like a wild animal, his actions are driven by instinct, fear and threat. When interpreting the way the story occurs, we can conclude that for Grendel the Da*es were a threat to their territory and their integrity, they were enemies and invaded and competed for their space, needing to be exterminated so that his integrity was maintained.

Thus, I do not believe that Grendel acted out of jealousy, but out of irrationality and savagery to protect his territory and himself.

Grendel can be seen as a metaphor for our day. Because it represents the unknown of nature, which we are all afraid of, just like the Anglo-Saxons. However, we invade, threaten and withdraw the space of nature, seeing us as victims when it attacks us with all its fury and savagery. We see it as a villain and a cruel monster that needs to be defeated, when in fact, we are the ones who provoke the wrath of nature.
