English
1 answer:
Setler79 [48]3 years ago

Answer:

C. The room is a former nursery with bars on its windows, emphasizing her treatment as a child/prisoner and thus the eventual break from her identity as a sane adult woman.

Explanation:

The short story<em> </em><em>"The Yellow Wallpaper"</em> by Charlotte Perkins Gilman is a feminist text which shows the constraints that women faced in their lives especially during the 19th Century. This particular text focus on the mental and physical health of women as regarded right by the 'men' or patriarchal society as a whole.

The room that the narrator and her husband had taken 'for the improvement of her health' is more like a cage. It was at the top of the house, a room with torn and dilapidated wallpaper, which was also a former nursery. It had bars and rings and things. She points out that <em>"the windows are barred for little children"</em>, which is significant for it emphasizes her treatment as a child/ prisoner. She had no control over the diagnosing of her 'illness' nor does she have control over the medicines she's to take. Everything is taken care of by her husband John.

Thus, the room that she and her husband took represents her treatment as a child/prisoner and thus the eventual break from her identity as a sane adult woman.

Which of the following accurately describes the relationship between the theory of universal grammar and acquisition of a second
pishuonlain [190]

The sentence that accurately describes the relationship between the theory of Universal Grammar and the acquisition of a second language is "The theory of Universal Grammar  supports language acquisition because all languages share a similar structure." According to this theory, there are <u>universal principles</u>, shared by all languages, and <u>parameters</u> that can vary between languages. So, a second language learner has to set the values of a parameter. For example, the pro-drop parameter has two values, the pro-drop in the case of the Spanish language, in which a subject or object pronoun can be omitted, and the non-pro drop in the English language, in which the pronoun cannot be omitted.

Upon completing The Tragedy of Macbeth, Act V, write a brief evaluation of Macbeth as a typical tragic hero. Do you
stepladder [879]

Answer:

Throughout the play, Macbeth would be considered a typical tragic hero. He is initially the Thane of Glamis and a noble warrior, who valiantly serves King Duncan. Following his brave exploits in battle, Macbeth earns the title, "Thane of Cawdor," which was prophesied by the witches. Macbeth is misguided by the Three Witches and encouraged to commit regicide by his wife. The audience initially sympathizes with Macbeth because he is persuaded by his malevolent, ambitious wife to murder King Duncan. Macbeth is quickly manipulated by his wife after he initially rejects the thought of murdering King Duncan. Macbeth's immediate feelings of guilt following his crime also reveal his conscience. Macbeth then begins to hallucinate and see his friend's ghost after Banquo is assassinated. Similar to many tragic heroes, Macbeth also has a tragic flaw, in his case, unchecked ambition. In every aspect, Macbeth meets the criteria of a typical tragic hero. In my opinion, Macbeth is a noble individual with one tragic flaw. Unfortunately, he is manipulated by his wife into murdering King Duncan.
