To lay out the story's theme and what the play will be about. Such as the characters and what is going on previous to where the play starts.

For example, the prologue of Romeo and Juliet starts off by talking about the feud between families and ends by talking about the death of Romeo and Juliet.

The Giver Novel : How has Jonas's perspective in chapter 13 change throughout the novel so far.
nadezda [96]

Answer:

- "As the weeks go by, Jonas learns all the colors, but still sees only glimpses of them in the world around him".

- "Jonas is angry that the world is devoid of color; it's not fair, he says".

- "The Giver asks him to explain. Jonas argues that without color, there aren't choices. He can't decide in the morning whether he wants to wear blue or red. He knows what color your shirt is isn't really important, but he thinks the ability to choose at all is what matters—on principle".

- "Jonas elaborates by discussing Gabriel, whom The Giver already knows about. What if Gabriel could choose which color toy he wanted?"

- "The Giver explains that, if that were the case, then Gabriel might make the wrong choices".

- "Jonas realizes the wisdom. He agrees that people shouldn't be allowed to choose their own spouses or jobs, because they might be wrong. "We really have to protect people," he says, "from wrong choices," because that way "it's safer."

- "Well, that was quick. So much for Jonas the freedom-lover.".

- "Still, though, Jonas doesn't quite feel satisfied with his own conclusion. He feels frustrated".

- "Actually, he feels angry. All the time. He's angry at his friends, for example, for being satisfied with their lives, which are so dull and not vibrant".

Maybe the first five ^-^

Discuss the author's use of phrases and clauses. Begin by identifying the prepositional phrases and any noun, adjective, and adv
zimovet [89]

Hello. You did not enter the necessary text to answer this question, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I can help by conceptualizing the elements you need to find in the text. That way I advise you to find your answer.

A prepositional phrase is a word set that has a preposition in evidence. These sentences are part of a sentence and have no meaning on their own, needing a complement to make sense. Prepositional phrases usually have a structure formed with preposition + object + adjectives or articles. An example of a prepositional phrase would be "She ran the marathon with pride on Saturday"

Nouns are words that give name to any possible being, object, feeling, or possible situation. This will be the easiest element to identify in your text. Ex: House, horse, joy, asphalt, table, dogs, etc.

Adjective is a word that gives characteristics to nouns, that is, that word expresses the characteristics of a certain thing. Ex: Intelligent, clear, thin, noisy, wet, melancholy.

Adverbial clauses are phrases that are inserted in a main sentence, acting as an adverbial adjunct to that phrase, that is, these clauses work as an adverb and therefore, modifying a verb. Ex: She past the test, because she study a lot.
