English
1 answer:
Ivanshal [37]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Legends are traditional folklore stories, usually concerning some kind of mythological narrative that has taken place during the history of a certain group or community. </u>They can concern the real events and people, but quite often also include stories of miracles, supernatural events, and magical beings. They are usually well known and shared between the member of a community or nation. <u>However, they are taken to be uncertain and not widely believed to be about real events (even when they include real historical figures).</u>

<u>Urban legends are contemporary tales that are believed and taken to be narratives of real events</u>. They usually include tragic or horror elements and are told as if they are something that happened to someone in our circle of acquaintances. <u>They can also have some moral messages or ways to reflect the current anxieties of society and people.</u> Urban legends are usually transferred orally, from person to person, but in the modern world, they are frequently shared online, via e/-mail and social media.

Write two to three sentences explaining one way that Ovid creates suspense in "Pyramus and Thisbe." Support your response with d
bezimeni [28]

Answer and Explanation:

Ovid managed to generate suspense in "Pyramus and Thisbe" from the beginning of the narrative, when only young people communicate through a small space between their homes, and they can be discovered at any time by someone who would prevent them from being together. However, the high point of the suspense is portrayed at the end of the poem, when Ovid causes Pyramus to find his beloved's bloody vein and is extremely sad, making the reader unable to know what he will actually do, until he decides he needs to die. Furthermore, the suspense gets even greater when Thisbe finds her beloved dead and decides to have the same end.

An essay on i wish i had listened to my mother​
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

I dislike lying. In fact, I have never lied. But two weeks ago, I had lied to my mother for my own selfishness.

“ tomorrow I will give you money to pay for your tuition fees,” said mother.

Mother had told me to pay for my tuition fees and warned me not to use the money to buy something else.

“Alright mother!” I grumbled to myself while watching television.

The next day, I prepared to go for my tuition class. After getting ready, I reminded my mother about the tuition fees I needed to pay. She went to her room to get the money. She then reminded me to not forget to pass it to my tuition teacher.

I went out earlier than usual as I wanted to meet my old friend, Maddy. We promised to meet at Macdonald’s nearby my tuition centre. After waiting for fifteen minutes, Maddy arrived. We wondered around the shopping mall hoping to find any latest outfits that fits the trend now. While we were glancing at the shops, I came across a particular pair of shoes that got my eyes glued on it instantly. It had just arrived in Singapore and had unique designs on it. Without hesitation, I jolted into the shop to ask the salesman the price of the shoes.

“One hundred and fifty dollars after a fifty percent discount. Special offer that will end tomorrow,”  

I wanted the shoes so badly but I did not have enough savings and time was running out. There was no way I could earn that much money in just one day.

The only money I had was the tuition fees that were given by my mother earlier.

Not feeling guilty for my actions, I immediately bought the shoes. If mother were to ask, I would tell her that I had given the tuition fees and I would pay it back when I have enough savings. That way, my mother would not know about my plan
