The flashback to the fireworks adds some unexpected hope by showing that people create beauty even amid poverty.

In the story, it is clear that the people who lived in the reservation did not have much money (in fact, at one point the narrator says "who does have money on a reservation, except the cigarette and fireworks salespeople?"). However, for two boys who have nearly nothing, seeing fireworks in the night sky (even though they are to celebrate a holiday that isn't theirs) means everything. It is a beautiful image.

It is clearly stated by the narrator once again: "The fireworks were small, hardly more than a few bottle rockets and a fountain. But it was enough for two Indian boys."

In the opening stage directions the slave sense tituba has most likely refers to her

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

In the opening stage directions the slave sense Tituba has most likely refers to her instincts as a person in a subordinate position.

Explanation:

Tituba is the "Negro slave" of Reverend Parris in Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible". This play revolves around the case of the Salem Witch Trials that depicts the wrongful accusation of numerous people in the town of Salem charged with practicing witchery.

With the stage direction describing the moment Tituba enters the room where Rev. Parris was praying, we get a sense of how she feels inferior and scared of her master. The statement that "[she is also] very frightened because her slave sense has warned her that, as always, trouble in this house eventually lands on her back." This statement indicates that she has been frequently blamed for any trouble happening in the house. And it made her aware of what her position is, being black and a slave at that.

Jupiter and his mighty company end the golden agePart a which of the following best identifies the central theme of this text?A.

stira [4]

Answer:

Answer:

The correct answer is c) Power can corrupt.

Explanation:

It is said that before in the Golden Age, everything was handled by the Titans who had the appearance of humans but were more abundant and stronger. As the king of the Titans was Saturn the father of Jupiter (also known as Zeus), at this time they say that people felt happy with what Saturn offered them, there was no disease, war, envy and no one wanted to rule another, for example, the fields were full of harvest and beautiful climates.

But Jupiter had planned to defeat the Titans and joined his brothers to destroy them; in this way, the golden age no longer existed, and everything that was previously known as the golden age no longer existed. People were influenced by power, causing wars and enemies; all were eager for power.

I hope this information can help you.
