English

Answer:

<h2>See below</h2>

Explanation:

First, let’s define trash and then we’ll get to Boo. Atticus’s definition of trash is someone with no integrity or regard for another race. Alexandra on the other hand, defies trash as anyone born to lower class families. While Atticus thinks that prejudice is bad, Alexandra encourages it. In the context of Boo Radley, this means that Boo is viewed as trash by Alexandra and not by Atticus.

I'm always happy to help :)

I hated reading how too kill a mockingbird,  Atticus and his sister have completely different meanings of trash. In chapter 23, Atticus and Jem are discussing the outcome of the Tom Robinson trial, and Atticus talks about racial injustice. Atticus then tells his son this,

. . . whenever a white man does that to a black man, no matter who he is, how rich he is, or how fine a family he comes from, that white man is trash (Lee, 224).

Read the passage from The Importance of Being Earnest. Gwendolen. [To Jack.] Darling! Algernon. [To Cecily.] Darling! [They fall
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

In contrast to reading the scene, seeing the staged version of the scene would improve its aesthetic impact by allowing the audience to <em><u>watch the actors' reactions, thereby adding to the humor.</u></em>

Explanation:

Oscar Wilde's comedy play "The Importance of Being Ernest" revolves around the character of John Worthing and Algernon and the issue of class. The other themes in the play include marriage, social expectations, the ridiculousness or triviality of things deemed important, etc.

In the given excerpt from the play, we can see the scene where the two couples were 'showing affection' to their respective loves but then came Merriman and Lady Bracknell. It was then that the couples had to hurriedly stop their "public display of affection". And <em><u>in contrast to reading this scene, a staged or performed version would improve the aesthetic impact as it will allow the audience to see how the actors/ characters react, adding to the humor of the whole scene.</u></em>

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

What are the 2 epithets used to describe Napoleon in Animal Farm
cupoosta [38]

Answer: In <em>Animal Farm</em>, Napoleon is described as "fierce-looking" boar "with a reputation for getting his own way."

Explanation:

<em>Animal farm</em> from 1945 is a short novel by George Orwell. The plot is centered around a group of animals who take over the farm, dissatisfied with their human farmer.

Napoleon, a Berkshire boar that becomes a farm leader, intimidates other animals with his nine dogs. He is a large animal that both physically and verbally frightens everyone around him. His character is based on Joseph Stalin, while he is also referred to in the novel as Terror of Mankind and Father of All Animals.

Napoleon is not interested in strengthening the farm itself, but in establishing his own authority over other animals. He turns out to be a much more harsh leader than the previous farmer, Mr. Jones.

Describe the overall tone of the poem "The Road Not Taken" and explain how the author's specific word choice contributes to this
lord [1]

Answer:

Robert Frost's poem “The Road Not Taken” discusses the choices that a person may face in his life. The tone of the poem is serious and does not necessarily have an optimistic outlook. On the other hand, the poem is not about good and evil. It is about selecting the right approach to life through making decisions.
