3. To spot words and sentences that don't row well in the essay
This is a TED talk given by Karem Thompson
Explanation:
In her speech she talks about how fear is connected with the stories we had read. She says, first, we have to acknowledge that fear is an entire system of the brain.
Yet today, when we do not have to fear a saber-toothed tiger behind every tree, we are still telling ourselves that a critical level of danger may be right around every corner.
Now our stress is social, ethical, and financial, but our brain elevates the challenges to that same fear center. We have difficult family situations that need attention, but we avoid wading in because we are imagining the worst possible outcome.
In literature and in writing it's important to understand the subject and the theme and also be able to identify key points and create your own opinion. When analyzing a story, you need to discuss the following elements:
- Setting
- Mood
- Main Charecters
- Main conflicts
-

Hope this helps :D
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Personification is giving human like characteristics or actions to a non-human things.
Excerpt 1 just talks about how scary and awful the Red Death is, but it doesn't really make it seem human.
Excerpt 2 describes the Red Death like a really scary looking masked person looking thing, kind of like a scythe. The Red Death is a non-human thing though, but Poe is making it seem human. This is personification.
Excerpt 3 talks about a face, vesture, brow, etc. These are all things that humans usually have. This is a personification.
Excerpt 4 is just describing a scary place, but it doesn't really talk about anything human, and it doesn't seem to be talking about the Red Death at all.
Therefore, the answer is Excerpt 2 and Excerpt 3.
Have a wonderful day! :D
