Answer:

Dr. King compares social injustices to a boil full of pus that needs light and air to be healed rather than be hidden or wound up. He also stressed the need to act now, for time is of the essence in bringing about a solution to such injustices before it breaks loose and affect everyone.

Explanation:

In his <em>Letter from Birmingham Jail</em>, Dr. Martin Luther King wrote how his critics have sought to question his very actions of allowing and even leading the revolts that led to so many violence. But more than that, he also readdresses the need to look into the issue of injustice and look for a solution rather than 'brush it under the carpet' and let it fester.

Comparing racial injustice as something like pus that gets worse if hidden, he reiterates the need to bring issues up for discussion and looking for a solution together. He also directly states that the protesters are not agents of tension, but rather, they are agents that help bring to light the social injustices that fester hidden so that a solution may be found in <em>"the light of human conscience and the air of national opinion"</em>. Such injustices are <em>"Like a boil that can never be cured as long as it is covered up but must be opened with all its pus-flowing ugliness to the natural medicines of air and light"</em>. If not exposed, they fester and hide behind<em> "dangerously structured dams"</em> that are the laws that block the flow of justice as it should be.

And this accumulation will only lead to a disastrous outburst which will destroy everything in its path. But if it is dealt with in time, it will not only prevent the outbreak but will lead to more peaceful results. As he says, <em>"We must use time creatively, and forever realize that the time is always ripe to do right"</em>, time plays an essential role in the solution.

emmainna [20.7K]
I would say the correct answer is <span>B) He feels tied to the land and to the weather in which he grew up. The speaker feels free and unrestrained when he is in the open, at night, with the moon lightening up so he can see the endless horizon clearly. When forced to go back into the house because the summer is over, he feels confined and depressed.</span>

Hawthorne states that Brown's wife is "aptly named," Faith (ie., her name fits her personality). After reading the story, do you
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Yes, Nathaniel Hawthorne was right in naming Brown's wife "Faith".

Faith is a representation of the faith and belief of not only Brown himself but also that of the believers/ Christians who are tempted everyday by the devil. In her attempts to persuade Brown to not go into the forest, telling him about the dream, she is the 'spiritual' image of God who is trying to stop his people from being cheated/ tempted or brought to sin.

Brown initially has full faith in his wife but at the end of the story, we see him a changed man. He no longer sees her as the woman she was in the start but he began to question her each and every actions.

Explanation:

Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Young Goodman Brown" tells the complex tale of the character Young Goodman Brown and his conflicting belief in his own faith and later on, that of his villagers including his own wife. He had left his village and his wife to be tempted by the devil, returning back a shaken man altogether.

Hawthorne had aptly named "Faith", the wife of Goodman Brown for she represents the faith and innocence of the true Puritan believer. She is the epitome of what a believer of God should be but she appears in a different light in her husband's face after his return from the forest. From her reluctance to let Brown go into the forest to be tempted by the devil, she represents a Christian's life to stay away from any devilish temptation. She is the 'spiritual' representation of God trying to prevent His people from being tempted.

At first, Brown seems to have full faith in her naivety and innocence. He even expresses regret in leaving her all alone to be tempted in the forest. But after the devil had tempted him and had taken him through the evil ceremony of inducting the 'new converts' to the devil, he began to question her character and could not seem to see her in the same position he had put her before the temptation. There is no proof that what happened in the forest was real, but what the devil intended to d has had its effect. Brown now no longer trusts her, nor the village priest and others. he began to question each an everyone's faith, ever doubting them.

Which phrases have strong connotations that support the author’s purpose
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Explanation: Strong connotation means a word has a strong meaning. For example, you could say “I am happy” versus “I am ecstatic.” The latter has a stronger connotation because it means “very happy,” while happy just means happy.
