Read the passage from A Raisin in the Sun.

[LINDNER:] But you've got to admit that a man, right or wrong, has the right to want to have the neighborhood he lives in a certain kind of way. And at the moment the overwhelming majority of our people out there feel that people get along better, take more of a common interest in the life of the community, when they share a common background.

Which words best describe Lindner's tone, based on his use of the phrase "in a certain kind of way”?

disdainful and demeaning

confused and indecisive

warm and welcoming

surprised and amazed

Answer:

disdainful and demeaning

Explanation:

From the passage of <em>Raisin in the Sun</em>, Lindner uses the phrase "in a certain kind of way" in a disdainful and demeaning tone to narrate how an adult male has the right to want the neighborhood he wants to live in whether he's "right or wrong" which insinuates that Lindner is less than impressed.

"Echo by her talk contrived to detain the goddess till the nymphs made their escape. When Juno [Hera] discovered it, she passed
noname [10]

Answer:

A.  thought that silence is golden.

Explanation:

In this passage from Story of Echo and Narcissus, Echo faces the sentence of not being able to speak because of her constant talking and saying last word in conversations. The goddess Juno did not over talkative habit of Echo. Since it is a Greek myth, and myths represent the concerned culture's values, we can infer from this that Ancient Greek thought that silence is golden.

In Greek myth "Echo and Narcissus" is a tragic story of Echo and Narcissus. It is also found in Ovid's book of poetry (Metamorphoses). Echo is a nymph which annoys Juno (Hera) by detaining her by her talk when she (Juno) was searching for her husband who was amusing himself with the nymphs. When Juno discovers this, she passes sentence upon Echo that she will not be able to talk/speak, but she will only be able to utter last word of someone else's speech. The story next describes about Narcissus's indifference to Echo only because of her inability to speak. And later Narcissus too (unknowingly) falls in love of his own reflection in the story. The bodies of both Echo and Narcissus dissolve because of not finding the love from their beloved ones.

The options B and C are not relevant to this passage, nor to this story. Option D is totally incorrect because they did believe in their myths.

Refer to Explorations in Literature for a complete version of this scene and the myth. How does Shakespeare transform Ovid's myt
UkoKoshka [18]
Shakespeare uses the bones and structure of the myth as a base for the humor of this scene. He presents the mechanicals (Bottom and Quince, etc) as bad actors who don't know their parts very well, and who also have to improvise to create different elements of the myth. The wall and the moon, for instance, are played by actors rather than just being the inanimate objects that they are in the myth. The story is the same, the plot follows the same lines, but Shakespeare uses the inefficiency and inadequacy of the actors to create more of a ridiculous and humorous tone.
