I'm really getting quite fond of the big room, all but that horrid paper. Out of one window I can see the garden, those mysterio

us deepshaded arbors, the riotous old-fashioned flowers, and bushes and gnarly trees. Out of another I get a lovely view of the bay and a little private wharf belonging to the estate. There is a beautiful shaded lane that runs down there from the house. I always fancy I see people walking in these numerous paths and arbors, but John has cautioned me not to give way to fancy in the least. He says that with my imaginative power and habit of story-making, a nervous weakness like mine is sure to lead to all manner of excited fancies, and that I ought to use my will and good sense to check the tendency. So I try.

In this text, there are several symbols that the author uses in order to convey meaning. A symbol is an object, action, or idea that is meant to stand for something else.

In this case, one of the symbols that is present throughout the text is the wallpaper. The wallpaper symbolizes the imprisonment of the character. This is why she concentrates on it so much, and why it is hideous and all around her. The author also sees a path that runs from the house, and where she sees people walking. These are free people, in the real world, and the path is the liberation the narrator is looking for.

Read this passage from "Four Freedoms Speech" by Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Marta_Voda [28]

     The answer would be C. By using parallel structure, Roosevelt emphasizes the challenge the country faces in transitioning from peacetime to wartime.

    The literary device parallelism is employed to emphasize how hard it is prepare for a wartime scenario. Parallelism is used mostly to provide emphasis in many moving passages and is efficient when trying to persuade or convince one's audience.

Example:

     It was dark because a new era was upon the nation. It was dark because change was coming. It was dark because the struggle had only begun.

     In this example, repeating the phrase "It was dark" places emphasis on the ominous tone of the prompt and allows the reader to feel the gravity of the situation.

A work of literature must provide more than factual accuracy or vivid physical reality . . . it must tell us more than we alread
yKpoI14uk [10]
I agree with the quotation. Literature should not be all about sound facts nor is it about fantasies. It must lie in between. We each have our own levels of understanding and our own personal fantasies. A work of literature must provides us with something new in order for the time spent in consuming it be worthwhile. The Book Thief tells us of hard facts but it also provides us with something else, how a life of young child harboring a wanted man is changed after the fact. In the Lord of the Rings, a fantasy world is so vivid and wide that you yourself can navigate through it.
