The answer would be Val. First step is to divide 10 by 4. That would give the answer of 2.5. Now you have to set it up as a fraction. So it would be 3/5 and 1/4. now you have to cross multiply. 5 x 1 = 5, and 4 x 3 = 12. So Val would cover the greater distance.

In at least 150 words, describe the literary and historical importance of Bradford’s Of Plymouth Plantation.
anygoal [31]

Of Plymouth Plantation is significant because it chronicles facts about the establishment of the Pilgrim Church in England, the group who left for Holland and eventually the trip on the Mayflower to the New World on November 11, 1620, and the early days of colonial America. Bradford was governor of the colony for 33 years. Among many things he writes about, maybe the most famous is the first Thanksgiving.


It is also significant because it is the most lucidly reliable account of those early days in American history. One of the lessons about the Puritans in reference to their common beliefs or personalities is that they came to the New World seeking religious freedom. Bradford's work draws on many Biblical parallels. They wanted to "purify" (hence the name "Puritans") the Church of England, believing that the Protestant Reformation did not go far enough in attempting this. It also seems that their fervor for this purification in the new community in the new world eventually declined; it was said that Bradford wrote some of this text with a nostalgia, implying that their focus on their role as religious crusaders/founders of a new world gave way to expansion and maybe more focus on other aspects of life.

Why did Chopin choose to communicate so much of her theme, or message, through the literary device of irony?
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

<em>Chopin chooses irony as it added profundity to the story and made an immense impact on the readers.</em>

Explanation:

Kate Chopin wrote The Story of an Hour. She used irony throughout this short narration to make insignificant events appear important.

<em><u>For example</u></em>, Mrs Mallard is refereed to have a troubled heart. This was done to exaggerate her behavior regarding different things.  At another incident, Mrs Mallard is described to experience sudden, wild abandonment. This too is a perfect example of irony and symbolism portrayed by the author to make everything appear more heightened than usual.

What kinds of details might an author include to depict environment or setting in a prose excerpt
vfiekz [6]

When an author depicts environment or setting in prose, he/she is describing the domain or surroundings of where the tale occurs.

Explanation:

An environment or setting in prose can also be defined as the context or the backdrop where a story unfolds. Hence, it plays a very important part in establishing the personalities/back stories of the characters themselves.

The setting or environment could include a number of details. For instance:

  • Direct reference to Place and/or Time: Eg. <em>"In the early winters of 1989, Samantha was living a peaceful life in the heart of Mexico."</em>
  • Indirect reference to Place and/or Time: Eg. <em>"Since the evenings were warm, and the trees were bare, Tom knew that in a couple of months winter would be on its way."</em>
  • The Interiors/Exteriors Description: Eg. <em>"The four walls were made of thick concrete blocks, gleaming in the dark by the torches that lined the passageway. There were shadowy figures lurking in the corners."</em>
  • The Natural Habitat/Surroundings and/or the Weather/Climate: Eg. <em>"It was a cheerful sunny day, ideal for a picnic in the park. The grass was green, flowers were in full bloom, and the clouds passed in the sky like tufts of fluffy white cotton wool."</em>

A setting or environment works to weave in the elements of the narrative together. It also enables the readers to visualize the story being narrated, making it more engaging to picturize it.
