The speaker in the poem "Alone" feels he is different from everyone else. A. true B false

English

Virty [35]3 years ago

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Speaker

"Alone" is a retrospective poem, which means that it's a poem told by a guy looking back on his childhood. This complicates the whole speaker issue. The guy who is actually speaking in the poem is, of course, an older, more mature version of the guy he's describing. However, the speaker is also that younger child that he describes in the poem. It's almost like he temporarily transports himself back in time and reassumes his former identity.

So let's talk about the younger version of the speaker a little bit, because that's who dominates the poem. Now, this isn't a poem about bullying or getting made fun of, but the kid in the poem feels completely alone and isolated. His tastes, passions, and even his sorrows are completely different from everybody else's.

The speaker of this poem isn't just some lonely guy, however. He's also special. He's alone, sure, but because of that he gets to experience a kind of "mystery." We don't know exactly what this is—it is a mystery, after all—but we get the feeling that it's not entirely a bad experience. The speaker associates this mystery with powerful, inspiring views, ones that only he can see. That makes things seem just a little better now, doesn't it?

The last thing we have to tell you is that this poem is very autobiographical, which means it is one of many places where Edgar Allan Poe talks about himself, reflecting Poe's own sense of his difference. He was orphaned at a young age (his father took off before he was born and his mother died when he was very young), and he generally felt out of place. "Alone" very openly describes the young Edgar Allan Poe, and his own feelings of both isolation and inspiration.

In the story "Night" Describe the 'run' and Elie's experience during the death march.
dezoksy [38]

<u>The 'run' and Elie's experience during the death march:</u>

Ellie has a harrowing experience during the run and the death march in which he witnesses inhumanity, brutality, and meanness at their height and prays to God that he never does what he had seen a son doing to his father.

Night is a book that depicts the time and conditions during the Holocaust when the Jewish people were brutally treated in the Nazi Germany Concentration Camps.

Death march was the movement of Jewish prisoners from one concentration camp to another.  During the ‘run’ in which they ran for more than forty miles,  Ellie Wiesel saw a father and son duo who were running along with them and other prisoners.

He saw how the son when he saw the father losing strength, ran past him as he had started believing that his poor, old, malnourished and exhausted father would not be able to make it. The only punishment that the incapable runners would get was a gunshot that relieved them of their miseries. The son left his father in lurch running ahead to save his own life. Though Ellie knew this truth, he did not reveal it to the old father who was still looking for his son, ignorant of the selfishness of his son.

Ellie who was with his ailing father lay exhausted in a shed after the run and prayed that he does not repeat the actions of the inhuman son and do to his own father what he saw the son doing to the poor old Rabbi father.

A boy running beside Ellie feels he cannot do anymore and gives up. He is trampled to death.  He also saw a musician and his violin trampled to death.

When they are loaded in cattle cars for transporting them to another camp, one of the strongest men, who had saved Ellie from dying due to strangulation in the car, dies of exhaustion and starvation. Only 12 out of a hundred survived when they reached the destination.

He also witnessed the sadism of German locals who threw insufficient food to start fights and killings over bread.

Gala2k [10]

Anne Frank’s diary tells the story of Anne’s life while she, her family, and four others lived in hiding in a warehouse in Amsterdam during the Nazi occupation

In the above questions, all options have some kind of subjectivity except the last optio which is stating the reality as it is.

Therefore following is the correct answer;

Anne Frank’s diary tells the story of Anne’s life while she, her family, and four others lived in hiding in a warehouse in Amsterdam during the Nazi occupation
