English
1 answer:
d1i1m1o1n [39]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The word "Goddess" refers to freedom, which is part of the main theme of this poem.

Explanation:

In this poem by Phillis Wheatley, the fight for freedom led by General Washington can be seen as the main theme.

The author of the poem uses the word Goddess to emphasize this meaning, because that is what freedom is: a great "Goddess", the one who frees us and lets us live in peace.

Let's look at the following quote from the poem:

<em>Proceed, great chief, with virtue on thy side, </em>

<em>Thy ev'ry action let the Goddess guide. </em>

<em>A crown, a mansion, and a throne that shine, </em>

<em>With gold unfading, WASHINGTON! Be thine.</em>

What is Judson doing with the whiskey?
Monica [59]

Answer:

Judson put in a rat poison into the bottle of whiskey to catch the thief who has been coming to steal it

Explanation:

The story "Ruthless" is about a man named Judson Webb. Judson and his beautiful wife plan on travelling away to another town for the winter.

He has a special safe where he stores his guns,fishing equipment and liquor. Last winter while he was away with his wife someone broke into his house and stole one of his drinks. He has the feeling that the person will attempt to do the same thing this year.

Judson decides to put in a rat poison into one of the open bottle of whiskey inorder to catch the thief. His wife tried to discourage him from doing this but he bluntly refused, she then went outside the house to wait for him to pack up his things.

As Judson was about leaving he remembered that he had forgotten to put his hunting boots into his bag. He went back to get them, as he was about reaching out to get the boots he stepped on an acorn which made him slide and hit his head on the table.

He fell to the ground and was unconscious for some minutes. By the time he woke up he found himself in Alec's arms. Alec is the caretaker who was incharge of watching their houses while they were away.

Alec found the bottle of whiskey on the table and decided to give Judson one glass to revive him. Judson was still not conscious enough to remember that the drink was poisonous. He drank up the glass of whiskey and died immediately.

Identify type of narrator
Margaret [11]

Answer:

1st person narrator, 2nd person narrator, 3rd person narrator.

Explanation:

1st person narrator being a character in the story narrating as they experience it. such as you would tell your mom how you just bought a car, or got gas for the lawn mower. The pronouns used are: I, me, we

2nd person narrator is a little more complex, though it's simple in practice and when you understand it. a 2nd person narrator can be anything that the story is talking to you, the viewer. such as choose your own outcome stories, or dungeons and dragons. The pronoun here is mainly just: you (e.g. you walk into the damp, cold room that Jordan had mentioned to you outside)

3rd person narrators are generally outside of the story, but still talking the viewer through the story without talking to them specifically. The pronouns used here are They, he, she
