Answer:

Explanation:

"When Elizabeth Cady Stanton wrote the Declaration of Sentiments she used the Declaration of Independence as a framework. It is no exaggeration to say, she doubtlessly follows the style and wording of the Declaration of Independence closely. It is a well known fact that the way they are written possess an almost identical pattern. Thomas Jefferson writes, “We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal.” Elizabeth Cady Stanton edits this same sentence to say that all men and women are created equal. This leads us to the question whether what are the similarities of the concerns reflected in both documents?

In my opinion it is hard to find a identical purpose. Comparing the Declaration of Sentiments to the Declaration of Independence to the first and probably most matching similarity that comes to my mind is the fact that in both documents someone has the purpose to achieve inalienable rights – Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. It is in each case there is a different “someone” wanting to pursue these inalienable rights for different causes. Thomas Jefferson’s declares it for political causes. Changing historical context the ideas of freedom and liberty change. The Declaration of Independence was written during a time when freedom meant political justice. The Declaration of Sentiments was written during a time when freedom meant equality among genders. However, freedom and liberty will always be freedom and liberty.

Nevertheless, there is a opportunity to open interpretation for each individual. So, Stanton uses the famous pattern of the Declaration of Independence, maybe also in order to obtain more power being connected automatically to this legendary document, but she exactly uses that instance for women’s advantage. Stanton is willing to receive what the Declaration of Independence basically demands BUT for women  Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness! As I mentioned before, she uses many quotes for women’s advantage by paraphrasing it and within that she reminds the government “all men are created equal”. Moreover, this includes women as well. Besides, in both documents there are people suffering because of suboptimal circumstances. Whereas the Declaration of Independence outlines the “patient sufferance of the colonies”, the Declaration of Sentiments outlines the “patient sufferance of women under this government.”

To sum this up there are definitely similarities but they are leaded by different kinds of ambition. One should not forget that these declarations were written under different historical backgrounds and suffrages under different authorities."

How does Finding Nemo share a similar pattern of events with the traditional story, "Little Red Riding Hood"?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is D; Both main characters do not listen to warnings from their parents and cause trouble.

Explanation:

In the movie Finding Nemo, his father warns him to stay away from the edge of the reef. Nemo deliberately disobeyed him and caused the whole story which made up the movie "Finding Nemo."

The same goes for the book "Little Red Riding Hood." Her mother and father warn her to stick to the designated path, and to not talk to strangers. She does exactly both, and her actions cause the demise of her dear grandmother.
