Read the passage.

kolezko [41]

The correct answer is A.

In this passage, the author creates suspense by describing a mysterious physical situation that could be a deadly trap. He is close to the edge of a large pit, so close that much of his head is hanging off the side. Poe creates suspense by the fact that the narrator close to the edge of a very deep pit.

Unpleasant details add to the sensory impact of the excerpt, but not its suspense. Furthermore, the narrator is confused in this excerpt, but not really fearful. He doesn't know enough about his current sitatuation to be afraid. Finally, the narrator becomes very quickly aware of the danger he's in -- he quickly realizes most of his head is hanging off the edge of the pit, a great danger indeed.

Therefore, Poe creates suspense by describing a mysterious physical situation that could be a deadly trap for the narrator.

B. Man vs. Self - Miguel struggles with feelings of guilt.

C. Man vs. Nature - Farmers experience a terrible drought.

D. Man vs. Higher power - Jonah is corrected by God.

E. Man vs. Society - Reverend Mundo protests Sunday sporting events.

Explanation:

The various forms of types of conflicts that are to be found in any narrative may be between man and nature, man with man, with self or even with the society. All these conflicts may also show the battle that the individual has to get through in order to move on with his life.

The types of conflicts along with the plot are as follows-

1. Man vs. man is seen in the competition between Carol and Brandi in their effort to get the gold medal. This competition to secure the better goal is a conflict of interest of the two persons involved.

2. Man vs. Self is seen in Miguel who is struggling with feeling guilty. This type of conflict deals with an individual and his inner emotions and feelings, a form of inner conflict within the persona and involves no other external identity.

3. Man vs. Nature is found in the farmers and the drought that had destroyed their crops. The farmers are in conflict with the terrible drought, a force of nature. Thus, it is a form of man and nature in conflict.

4. Man vs. Higher power is a form of conflict between an individual and some higher power, in this case God. God is the ever powerful entity over all, thus when Jonah disobeyed God, he gets corrected. This is a type of man vs. higher conflict.

5. Man vs. Society is shown when there is a conflict between an individual and the society he lives in. Thus, when Rev. Mundo protests against the sporting event that occurs on a Sunday, he is in conflict with the society. This conflict is based on the differences in interest.

Can someone please write me a conclusion about unrealistic beauty standards? No plagiarism.

otez555 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

With the rise of the media and technology in the modern age, we all can observe how unrealistic beauty standards have become the norm. Every day, people are surrounded by media portrays of famous people that send us the message that this is how we should look. What media often fails to explain to us is that celebrities have different things that help them look the way they are. Firstly, we can not all genetically be born to look the same and by popular standards. We must remember there are a lot of things in our looks we can't alter, and that is okay. Celebrities have so much more resources to spend on the way they look – to buy more expensive makeup, cosmetics, clothes that fit them, employ whole teams of people who will focus only on their look and style, etc. They can also afford quality plastic surgery more often, and they are usually required to make some of these alterations to their image to keep their status of celebrity. While we are bombarded by the pictures of perfect people in movies and advertisements, we often fail to remember there are so many factors that alter someone’s appearance.

Finally, with the rise of technology, there are many ways one can make someone look good on-screen. There are particular poses, angles, and ways to make a great photograph of someone, and there are many programs and filters that can change someone’s appearance. No one puts a picture of themselves on social media if they think they look ugly, and this goes both for celebrities and common people. Every time we open Instagram or TikTok, we see people that give us only their best. We think this is how we should look when in reality no one can look like they do on social media all the time.

This does not mean we should separate ourselves from social media or movies completely, but remember, when consuming them, we only get one aspect of someone’s look. However, there should be movement in media to change these unrealistic standards, especially the ones that are proven to be harmful (like the idealization of thinness that affects the rise of eating disorders). People working in media production and realization should think more about the effect of the images that are shared worldwide. There should be more body types in mainstream media, more people of color, people with disabilities, more natural and common people, and more talk of equality. Only with this erasure of unreachable beauty standards can we ensure that future generations will feel good in their skin and grow up to be satisfied with themselves how they are, not yearning towards the imaginary goal.
