The worst birthday from harry potter and the chamber of secrets question 5

English
1 answer:
lesya [120]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

D). It highlights the contrast between the Dursley’s excitement for the dinner and Harry’s loneliness.

Explanation:

Repetition is elucidated as one of the most commonly employed literary devices in which the author <u>repeats a word or phrase in order to emphasize or highlight a specific idea</u>. While 'tone' is described as the <u>author's approach or attitude towards a specific subject matter</u> reflected through the diction and language adopted by the author to convey it.

As per the question, Harry's constant repetition of the phrase 'I’ll be in my bedroom, making no noise and pretending I’m not there' affects the tone of the given passage by highlighting the disparity between the excitement of Dursley and the loneliness of Harry. It <u>shifts the tone from cheerful to serious and emphasizes Harry's isolation due to his family's fear over his special powers</u>. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

What is the main idea of “To Sir, With Love”
exis [7]

Answer:

The main themes of To Sir, with Love are education and racial prejudice. While Braithwaite overcomes the obstacles in his path, a critical reader might view his approach as somewhat egocentric, considering social problems as solved if he is able to stop them from affecting him personally.

THINK ABOUT THE word “success.” ​
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

1. We often assume that success is only about having things like power and wealth because that is usually how the media portrays success. Many successful people abuse their power by showing off their wealth, which makes us lower and middle-class men believe that success is nothing more than money and fame. We don't normally see what goes on behind doors because many successful people only want to show the good, not the bad.

2. Like the question above, various things influence our ideas of success. For example, the unfair portrayal in the media, big corporation brands, and society. On the other hand, there are positive things that can influence our ideas of success, such as creativity, talent, positive self-image, and education.

3. My idea of success has changed overtime because before, I thought it was about money and power. Now, the media covers a lot more than that. More and more successful people are coming forward with their stories and it is truly inspiring. It has definitely changed more with this discussion.

Explanation:

Hope this helps:) Goodluck!
