Although Mrs. Mallard's hear trouble appears to refer only to a physical condition, her true trouble is that, despite the fact that she is married to a good man, she is unhappy because she does not feel free. In this sense, it is symbolic of the unease that this lack of independence brings her. Also, the mention of her heart condiion at the beinning ofthe paragraph anticipates her eventual death. At first, the reader might think that it is the news of her husband's death that will cause Mrs. Mallard's own decease, but what triggers her heart attack is the revelation that the news were false, and that she has lost all the freedom that she had just begun to envision.

Read the poem "Heat" by H.D. in Explorations in Literature.
MrRa [10]

The first answer is correct: "They suggest that the heat is stifling, giving the poem an oppressive mood".

The author begins the poem with the sentence cited above. The use of the expression "rend open" plus the use of the imperative mode, suggest some sort of desperation caused by the heat. That is why the author prays for wind (an unbeatable natural force) to come and defeat heat, ending the suffering.

What is the relationship between setting and mood?
n200080 [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em><u>b. a story's mood is usually suggested or created by details about the story's setting.</u></em>

<em><u /></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The mood of a story can also be thought of as the story's atmosphere. Mood is the emotional reaction a book, painting, or any other piece of art work bestows on its audience. The mood of a work of literature is usually established through the character(s), setting(s), and plot. Any good writer forms a distinct setting that typically hints to the story's mood. Therefore, <em><u>a story's mood is usually suggested or created by details about the story's setting.</u></em>

How do you think school should<br> work during a pandemic?
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

When cases are super high: remote on Zoom

When cases are decreasing: Extreme social distancing with masks and half the school going one week and the other half remote. Then, the two groups would switch the next week, so the in-person group would go remote and the remote group would go in person.
