Imagery would be "The seas were blue while the beautiful skies were as light as my eyes."
Figurative is "The tears from the young girl were swept by the sea."
And... that's all i have.
Hamlet's willingness to go with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern into a trap shows that he may be giving up. He knows the consequences he should face for killing Polonius and has not had the strength or courage to act against Claudius yet. It also is a point that he has descended further into a reality of the madness that he has been 'putting on'.
Hey! The answer your teacher is looking for might be subjective. That said, my response might not be correct even if it's valid.
Characteristics:
* Story presents clear, fast worldbuilding
* Story can convey a comprehensive theme in a short period of time
* Story has a concise narrative without dragging / rushing through key points.
Conflict:
A 2004 book by Christopher Booker lists 7 widely recognized archetypes for storytelling:
Overcoming the Monster
Rags to Riches
The Quest
Voyage and Return
Comedy
Tragedy
Rebirth
I'm gonna assume you can guess the conflict(s) of each archetype based on the names; just choose three of them.
Characters:
This is very subjective, but the most obvious answer is a protagonist, antagonist, and static / flat character (doesn't change throughout the story, serves some kind of supporting role).
Conditions:
Time and place; since it's such a simple answer, your teacher probably wants you to explain how these factors affect character behavior / the progression of a story.
I hope this helped!
Answer :
D. The sentence which best states the controlling idea of this passage is "The wire taps were never a secret, but they helped the United States gain military intelligence.
"
The following excerpts from the passage reaffirm this controlling idea :
1. "On balance, however, some valuable information was gathered from the tapped conversations. The U.S. learned, for example, a great deal about the Soviet and Eastern European order of battle, or its military organization. Others feel that the intelligence was valuable to check against similar information obtained from other sources."
2."The evidence suggests that the CIA gained two invaluable and untainted kinds of knowledge from the taps. The agency learned a basic blueprint of the Soviet and East German security systems, and it never picked up a glimmer of warning that Moscow intended to go to war.”
