A single streetlamp lit the empty street

Alenkinab [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The best answer would be: "B. A single streetlamp lit the empty street; then the light buzzed and faded, leaving him in darkness".

Explanation:

Letter B is the best option because the sentence uses concrete elements to create a sad and lonely environment, such as by the use of "single streetlamp", "empty street", and the words "faded" and "darkness". All of this creates a sense of melancholy, either because there's a sudden single light in an empty street and a following sudden light fading and consequent darkness. Letter A sounds like a normal narrative, although the narrator describes the time as the loneliest. Letter C also sounds like a normal narrative and there is no sadness in its statement, although it may be interpretive. Then, letter D is also a normal statement, which sounds like a self-help idea rather than a concrete description of sadness.

Which words from “ The Pedestrian “ help convey Bradbury’s message that a TV-obsessed world is a sad lonely place ?
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

I read this is in 7th grade!! It is a book about Leonard Mead who is the only man in the future that takes walks! Everyone else just stays inside watching TV. Since no one goes outside anymore, his behavior is considered regressive and he is arrested. Bradbury feared this might happen during the world war ||. He did not like technology at all, and said it was dangerous!
