Answer:

The author seems to display a certain frustration with how he was taught to be in school, and how that educational system still hinders the potential of young people to explore their own intellectuality. The author also seems slightly sarcastic when talking about the current educational system. Graff questions the validity of education systems in general, which tend to value well-know literary text more than any other type of media. He proposes that it is possible to develop one's intellectualism effectively even without the standard texts used for teaching, like Plato and Shakespeare. The author suggests that if students will not engage with the texts generally studied in schools, then schools should encourage them to pursue works they are legitimately passionate about. This makes a lot of sense to readers, and strengthens Graff's argument. Graff gives several examples of situations readers are likely to have experienced in real life, or suggests ideas readers have likely thought about before. This helps the reader identify with the subject on a personal level, and engages them effectively in the discussion.

For that first one the answer would be the third choice. Throughout the story, Anne would continually write in her diary which proved her as an excellent writer. For the second one, probably the first choice, due to the fact of that long time that everyone was staying in the Annex, it was super depressing. For the last one, I'm not really sure, but I'll guess the third choice. I hope this helps, and please mark as brainliest if possibly correct. THX!

Odysseus is the hero of this story. Think of another hero from a movie, a book or real life. Write a paragraph comparing and con

Olenka [21]

Odysseus is an epic hero that makes us follow his genre while writing another epic, looking at a heroic structure and also while reading other epics that are closely related to the story of Odysseus.

Explanation:

In view of comparing and contrasting Odysseus with another hero in Literature works, we can always choose our heroes from the greatest playwright, Shakespeare.

When we speak about Odysseus, his loyalty towards family though being away from them (wife and son) for nearly 25 years, his honesty and truthfulness to his country, his unwilling nature to give up make him an epic hero.

Shakespeare heroes, for instance, when we consider heroes from Othello, Hamlet and also, Achilles we can clearly see the constancy of courage, valor, unwillingness to give up in Shakespeare stories too. These are few similarities in the kind of attributes we take into consideration while viewing at the heroism perspective.

An arpeggio is:

B. playing a series of chords in a particular order

Explanation:

All right here we go. This is a very difficult question because is not very clear. However, we need to remember what an arpeggio is. An arpeggio is a small scale of different notes arranged in a degrading or increasing pattern of order. So, the answer that guards more similarity with the concept is: b) because c and d say it is discontinuous, which is not the nature of the arpeggio. So we have only a and b. But a is not the case because it says simultaneously. When arpeggio has order.
