I saw clearly the doom which had been prepared for me, and congratulated myself upon the timely accident by which I had escaped.

Another step before my fall, and the world had seen me no more and the death just avoided was of that very character which I had regarded as fabulous and frivolous in the tales respecting the Inquisition. To the victims of its tyranny, there was the choice of death with its direst physical agonies, or death with its most hideous moral horrors. I had been reserved for the latter. By long suffering my nerves had been unstrung, until I trembled at the sound of my own voice, and had become in every respect a fitting subject for the species of torture which awaited me. Which torture does the passage above reference? being eaten alive by rats being sliced open by a giant blade being killed by falling into a hole being burned alive

Wiesel seems to reestablished his ethos by reminding the audience of his experience as a Holocaust survivor (option c). It might be said that he wanted to convey the idea that indifference is worst than hatred because it mean the absence of compassion and lack of acknowledgement. he might have wanted for people to care about things happening in the world around each of them.  <span />

Write a descriptive paragraph about your favorite fictional character. Use at least three metaphors
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Hi Aarroy,

Who is your favorite fictional character? It doesn't have to be someone from a classic novel unless your teacher specified. It can be a character from a movie you love etc.

In order to write a "descriptive" paragraph, all you have to do is describe the character you choose using vivid language. For instance, if I was writing about Darcy from Pride and Prejudice I could write;

<em>"He has silvery blue eyes and an intimdating stature."</em> etc.

Just write about your character's appearance as well as his personality.

Metaphors are comparisons that do NOT use <u>like</u> or <u>as</u>. For instance, I could write:

<em>"Darcy's personality is an onion; with an outward appearance that first appears cold but whose inner layers reveal his insecure and fragile nature."</em>

I know that sounds like a mouthful, but I am comparing Darcy's personality to an onion without using like or as, which is a metpahor.

Answer:

I think it's C) "It creates tension by moving fron the slower pace of the description to the faster pace of Bob's dialogue, which suggests an uneasiness on Bob's part."

Because even though I only read this part of the passage just now, instead of the full story, I can tell the description of either character, wasn't too detailed. Not to mention the pacing did start out normally, but it felt as though Bob chimed in a little too quickly.

I hope this answer satisfies you. Also please let me know if it's right or not :)

This is the the main idea of an essay, usually expressed as a generalization that is supported with concrete evidence
valina [46]
The correct answer is thesis statement.
A thesis statement is the most important sentence in an essay - in it, you will find the main idea of the essay and why it was written in the first place. The author will briefly summarize his or her motivation and goal for writing the essay in this sentence, which is usually found at the end of the introductory paragraph.
