a) The Disney movie selected for analysis is Cinderella.
b) The social institution in such movie is marriage.
c) Sociological perspective: Feminism.
Here is the analysis:
- In Disney's Cinderella, feminism, that is, the thought of equality between sexes, is not apparent. This approach takes roots in the movie's idea of a poor girl with a miserable life who dreams about a prince who marries her and takes her to his kingdom for "salvation" and, on the other hand, the prince falls in love with her only because she is pretty. But nowadays, feminism would ask: why does she need a prince to thrive in life when she is plenty and has plenty to make the effort to achieve her own progress?
- Another point for discussion is how do they fall in love in the first place: they barely know each other but, yeah, they are in love. So, the movie shows a "superficial love", since if Cinderella wasn't pretty, he would never love her back.
- Thus, the movie encourages little girls to aspire to find the other significant one and get married with a "him", instead of showing girls how to overcome themselves and afterwards, falling in love, because only if you fall in love with yourself, you can fall for someone else.
The correct option is C) “Valerie's petite frame was the complete opposite of her larger-than-life personality.” Direct characterization is a literary device in which the author describes the personality and physical traits of a character by using adjectives or phrases in a direct way.
In the example C, the author directly indicates the character physical trait (petite frame) and compares it to her personality (larger-than-life personality).
The other options do not describe directly the personality or physical characteristics of characters.
Not sure how it's an English question, but Batteries have three parts, an anode (-), a cathode (+), and the electrolyte. The cathode and anode (the positive and negative sides at either end of a traditional battery) are hooked up to an electrical circuit. The chemical reactions in the battery causes a build up of electrons at the anode.
Answer:
The correct option is letter B) While Rebecca wants to go swimming every day, Arnold only wants to stay home and play video games.
Explanation:
A sentence that compares two elements focuses on those elements' similarities. A sentence that contrasts two elements focuses on their differences. Among the options given, letter B is the only one that presents a compare/contrast organization of ideas. As a matter of fact, it is contrasting Rebecca's and Arnold's preferences. The conjunction "while" helps convey the idea of contrast by stating that, while one element wants one thing, the other element wants something else. While Rebecca would rather go swimming, Arnold prefers to stay home. The difference between their preferences are made clear by the sentence's organization.
