Guy de Maupassant's work are deemed naturalistic because his characters are usually the working class and they are often portrayed in a very harsh conditions of real life where misery is prevalent.

Majority of his themes are about war and German occupation. His stories focus more on women, especially those who are victims and prostitutes. A lot of his stories also focus of depression, paranoia, and madness usually resulting to death and destruction.

Answer:

Guy de Maupassant was a french author, known as one of the biggest representers of Naturalism. Naturalism was characterized by describing social reality, not specifically limited to liberalism, optimism, and the progressive faith of the bourgeois class, but addressing poverty, disease, prejudice, prostitution, and death. His pessimistic and deterministic perspective was one of the main qualities that distinguish this movement from its predecessor, realism.

One example of his style at the moment of presenting a character or plot is <em>“Ball of Suet”</em>. She is a prostitute presented as an insignificant and unpopular person in her town. The pessimism presented in the story illustrates the style of the author. A second example is found in <em>“The Horla”</em>, in which the author presents the topic of mental illness and anguish, being in concordance with the naturalistic perspective. The last example can be found in <em>“The Necklace”</em>, in which one mistake lead the characters to live in misery their entire life. This last example reflects the unexpected situations that can affect people’s lives.

Who says the following and why (from "Most Dangerous Game")?
Anton [14]

Answer and Explanation:

<u>In the short story "The Most Dangerous Game", the character Zaroff is the one who says "That's the trouble with these sailors; they have dull brains to begin with, and they do not know  how to get about in the woods. They do excessively stupid and obvious things. It's most  annoying." The reason why general Zaroff says the words is because, the previous night, he had been hunting a man, a sailor. That man was easily caught and killed, which made the whole deal boring for Zaroff.</u>

Those lines were taken from a conversation between the general and another hunter, Rainsford, the main character. Zaroff has invited Rainsford to hunt with him, but Rainsford refuses to kill men. The general does not see what he does as murder. He's grown bored of killing animals incapable of reasoning, which is why he has decided to kill other human beings. He likes the challenge.

timama [110]

Answer:

tall - towering

happy - cheerful

interesting - fascinating

boring - colorless

Explanation:

<u>It is important, especially when it comes to writing, to have and expanded lexicon so as to avoid repetition or the use of general words. That means we can express the same idea in a more compelling way by simply knowing how to employ more engaging words.</u>

Let's use the words above in sentences. Pay attention to how the sentence sounds different after the change for the more interesting option, even though the words have basically the same meaning:

1. The old tall oak had finally been cut, put to rest without mercy. - The old towering oak had finally been cut, put to rest without mercy.

2. Rosana had always been described as a happy child. - Rosana had always been described as a cheerful child.

3. I have just finished a most interesting book. - I have just finished a most fascinating book.

4. The monotony in his voice made his lecture boring - The monotony in his voice made his lecture colorless.
