Answer:

B. A songbird must have a clean beak to chirp with--no false notes!

Explanation:

Obedience and control is a recurring theme of Henrik Ibsen's "A Doll's House". Obedience from his wife, Nora and control from himself, Helmer Torvald. The dialogue "A songbird must have a clean beak to chirp with-- no false notes" shows he expects his wife to be clean of any immoral acts. The above lines by Torvald is from Act 1 where he caught Nora lying about Krogstad's visit. Also, the use of "little' shows the dehumanizing of Nora into something that is not of his level, and the animal imagery representative of Nora being conditioned by her husband, losing both her identity and integrity along with it. But ironically, Torvald has no idea of what she has been doing behind his back. Women are expected to be submissive to their husbands and be faithful to their every demands, doing everything without any complains, serving diligently.

What is the book “Peace like a River” summary?
Inga [223]

I want to inform you that the summary on Peace like a River will not be short. Here is the paragraph I managed to find. One part Christian-inflected odyssey, one part tragedy, and one part classic adventure in the American West, Peace Like a River by Leif Enger is the story of a 1960s Minnesota family narrated by the asthmatic Reuben, the product of the first of his father’s seven miracles. The title takes its name from the Christian hymn “It Is Well With My Soul” In case, you feel like this is not enough, I want you to check what the writers from Prime Writings can do for you.

What are the effects of using the third-person limited point of view for the narrative? Select True or False for each statement.
Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

To answer this question we need to understand what the third-person limited point of view means.

The third-person point of view is when the narrator only relates his or her thoughts, feelings, and knowledge of various situations and other characters, and it is typically the main character. All characters are described using pronouns, such as 'they', 'he', and 'she'.

<u>Now let's answer the given options. Keep in mind that Jerome is the main character of the story:</u>

<u>Readers understand Jerome's development through the perspective of the other characters in the story</u> - False.

The third POV only gives us the development through the perspective of Jerome, not of other characters.

<u>Readers understand Jerome's thoughts and feelings as he works through a conflict </u>- True.

As Jerome is the main character and it is written in the third POV, then yes we can know his thoughts and feelings, and how he works through a conflict.

<u>The story is focused on the central lesson that Jerome learns, rather than the understandings of other characters</u> - True.

Yes, as he is the main character, we learn a lesson or understand the theme through his perspective.

<u>The focus of the story is on how all of the characters react to the conflict, rather than how Jerome learns from his experience</u> - False.

No, we focus on Jerome, and what he learns from his experience.

I hope it helped you :)
