The speaker is writing about an athlete that had passed away at a young age. In this stanza, the speaker is comparing human life to two different flowers. The young athlete is similar to the laurel flower; he blossomed earlier than a rose, but he also died earlier as well.

Answer:

character versus character

Explanation:

The text presents a character versus character conflict. This is because Sara (who is a character) has to suffer the consequences caused by the egoism of Miss Minchin (who is another character), who treats Sara in a very bad way because the girl has become poor.

The Little Princess tells the story of Sara Crewe, a wealthy girl who loses everything when she experiences a terrible tragedy. Obliged to work as a maid, to go cold and to hunger, she continues to preserve her nobility, and thus maintains her pride and her generosity.

The major event that changed the course of Anglo-Saxon culture, language, and art was the Blank in the year blank
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Norman Conquest in the year 1066

Explanation:

The Norman Conquest of Anglo-Saxon England in the year 1066 was the event which completely changed the course of Anglo-Saxon culture, language and arts. Normans were originally Vikings or Norsemen who had settled in present day northern France (Normandy). After the death of Anglo-Saxon King Edward the Confessor, William the the Conqueror (Duke of Normandy) proclaimed himself the rightful heir of the throne, conquered Anglo-Saxon England and was crowned the King on 25th December 1066.

This conquest had many effects on all aspects of Anglo-Saxon culture, history, language, literature, arts, law, etc. It linked England directly with France and continental Europe which before the conquest was more closely linked with Scandinavia. Anglo-Saxon or Old English as an official language of court, law, literature, was replaced by Anglo-Norman. It was only in 13th century that English (now called Middle English) started to challenge Anglo-Norman. But now it was completely changed from Old English (Anglo-Saxon).
