Answer:

There are a lot of differences between Sir Gawain and Beowulf.

1. Sir Gawain is a mere knight, and Beowulf is a prince.

2. Sir Gawain is from a Medieval tale, while Beowulf is from an Anglo-Saxon tale.

3. Sir Gawain humbles himself down and says he's feeble minded and of the least strength between all the knights, and he strongly desires to take the Green knight's challenge to avoid risking Arthur's life and put his less valuable one at stake. Beowulf is often praised for trying to pursue his own personal goals, and his strength and greatness are admirable as well.

Hope this helps!

Which excerpt from "Object Lesson, Part 2" would most likely cause reader uncertainty?

ryzh [129]

Answer:

Louise Carpenter was gripping a desk, her knuckles white.

Explanation:

The question above is related to the story entitled, "Object Lesson," which was written by Ellery Queen (a pseudonym).

The story centers on the character of Ellery, as he was called by Miss Carpenter to have a speech in class regarding "Notorious Criminals I Have Known." This came about when Miss Carpenter knew that three of his students in class were responsible for a juvenile crime she witnessed. However, on the day of the speech, Miss Carpenter noticed that someone stole her $7 inside her envelop.

As Ellery was searching the different places where the suspect might have placed the $7, "Louise Carpenter was gripping a desk, her knuckles white." This causes uncertainty on the reader because it doesn't give a clear sign whether the money will be found or not.

Louise Carpenter's action shows that she is "anticipating to be let down." This means that she, somehow, figured out that Ellery won't be able to find the suspect and money because they only have a few minutes left (4 and 1/2 minutes, to be exact).
