A theme of Anna’s Secret Wish is

English

s344n2d4d5 [400]3 years ago
5 0

The theme of Anna’s Secret Wish is that <u>people see the world differently</u>. Taken from the text “Anna’s Secret Wish” by Joan Lowery Nixon and Eileen Nixon McGowan, the reader can understand that the text is about every person having a different view of the world. There are <u>two instances (details)</u> in the text that can support this idea. First, when Anna and Olivia discuss their different points of view regarding oil paintings. Anna argues that she would like to use color and the oil paints instead of charcoal; however, Olivia does not like the idea of using oil paintings, since charcoal allows her to erase something if she makes a mistake. Second, towards the end, Anna says "I'll never have a charcoal life. Mama sees the world in colors too!". With this statement, Anna explains that she and her mother see the world in a particular way, in this case in color. Therefore, she implicitly states that there are different ways of seeing or perceiving the world.

1. In lines 1-14, mark vivid sensory details describing the time of year. Why does Chaucer focus on these sensory details? What
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The lines describing the time of the year are:

When April with his showers sweet with fruit ----- 1

The drought of March has pierced unto the  

root                                                                      ---------2

When Zephyr also has, with his sweet breath, ----------5

Quickened again, in every holt and heath, ----------------6

Then do folk long to go on pilgrimage ---------------------13

Chaucer focuses on these sensory details because he is trying to emulate some Latin and Greek authors who introduce their poems by creating inspiration through a muse. Chaucer then chooses to create inspiration by describing a natural phenomenon of the earth replenishing itself.

From the lines above, the season of the year is spring just after winter. The description implies spring as a symbol of rebirth and new life. A time when the earth replenishes itself after the dry air of winter, a time when there is rain, fresh air and when people long to go on pilgrimage.

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

1. Jesus Christ offers us eternal life. Subject--Verb--Indirect Object--Direct Object

2. Some riddles are easy to answer.

Subject--Linking Verb--Predicate Adjective

3. The deal seems fair.

Subject--Linking Verb--Predicate Adjective

4. My cousins live by the ocean.

Subject--Verb

Explanation:

1- Jesus Christ is the subject; offers is the transitive verb; us in the indirect object /objective pronoun; eternal life is the direct object.

2- Some riddle is the subject- are (be) linking verb -easy(to answer) is a predicative adjective.

3-The deal is the subject; seems is the linking verb; fair is the predictive adjective.

4- My cousins is the subject; live is an intrasitive verb

Live is  neither a transitive nor a linking verb so :<em>By the ocean</em> is the adverbial complement but it is not mentioned in the pattern.
