why does the speaker of "Sailing to Byzantium" want to abandon his mortal body? (support position with evidence)

English
1 answer:
Anon25 [30]3 years ago
7 0
The speaker wants to abandon his mortal body because bodies as they age become old, raggedy, and useless. He says "An aged man is but a paltry thing, A tattered coat upon a stick". This shows how much he dislikes his old body and wishes to "<span>But such a form as Grecian goldsmiths make", which means he thinks that in Byzantium he will take the form of a golden statue. </span>

What makes an analogy effective?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

I'm not sure if this is a multiple choice question but the answer is " It compares two unlike things that have more than one thing in common"

Explanation:

In an analogy, the writer takes two different things and makes a connection with it. In order to make a connection, we should first find the similarity between the 2 different things. I'm not if this is okay but on this website it said that  "In an analogy, you yoke together two unlike things (eye and camera, the task of navigating a spacecraft and the task of sinking a putt), and all you care about is their major similarities. The most effective analogies are usually brief and to the point—developed in just a few sentences."

Explain interpersonal skills
ollegr [7]
Interpersonal skills are close to emotional intelligence. You need to understand other people, their motivations, and their state. You need to know timing, because if you ask people something on the wrong time, the answer will always be no. You have to self control and understand that what matters to you, it does not have to matter for another person. Everyone is different and you have to respect that if you want to be respected.
