Ellen has written an essay about the monster in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Which sentence in the essay shows that the monster

feels rejected by the people around him?In Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Victor Frankenstein’s monster is a central character. Frankenstein creates the monster out of old body parts and strange chemicals. He uses a mysterious spark to bring the monster to life. This monster is 8 feet tall and extremely strong. However, his mind is like that of a newborn child. When the monster looks at his reflection, his hideous face shocks him. This face turns people against him, in spite of his kind nature. The monster asks Frankenstein to create a companion creature for him, so he won’t feel so lonely in the world. However, when Frankenstein destroys the companion, the monster turns violent and kills Frankenstein’s best friend, as well as his wife.
While Frankenstein despises the monster from the very beginning, the monster reveals that he is not a purely evil being. We see the monster’s sensitive and compassionate side when he narrates his life events to Frankenstein. We learn that he helps a group of poor peasants and saves a girl from drowning. Yet, because of his repulsive and gruesome appearance, people only respond to his kindness with disgust or cruelty. In spite of murdering several people, the monster’s compassionate side is visible until the end, when he reacts to Victor Frankenstein’s death with mixed feelings.

The sentence that most reflects Frankenstein's creature's feelings regarding the reaction of people around him is the following: "The monster asks Frankenstein to create a companion creature for him, so he won’t feel so lonely in the world." By the time the crature requests that a companion be created for him, he has experienced rejection by the family in the cottage, to whom he had been kind, as well as that of his own creator; he knows that only another creature like himself will be capable of accepting him.

How did Seamus Heaney incorporate Old English poetry elements in this modern translation?
konstantin123 [22]
<span>Heaney incorporates Old English poetry elements in his modern translation through punctuation. In Old English poetry, one often used half-lines. This means that each line of poetry was split into two half-lines, and in each of these half-lines there were two strongly stressed words, often with the purpose of giving musicality to the poem. Heaney follows this half-line pattern in his modern translation.</span>

Which kind of pronoun is the underlined word?
romanna [79]
I see only two pronouns here: "you" and "I" - they are both personal pronouns, so the correct answer, whichever of them is underlined, must be "personal".

Some more information that might help:" a reflexive pronoun usually ends with -self, for example: oneself.

A demonstrative pronoun is for example "this"
