Question

Compare and Contrast the story "Water Never Hurt a Man" and this picture. (Picture below)

Answer 1

Answer:

First and foremost, one similar aspect of the story “Water Never Hurt a Man” and this picture is its background. Nevertheless, a different thing between the two is what people portrayed.

Explanation:

"Water Never Hurt A Man" is a story by Walter Edmond, written in a 1930’s context, which seems to be the same context from the photo. However, people from this photo don’t exemplify the theme of the story. On the one hand, Walter Edmond talks about the initiation of growing up, which carries a certain but needed dose of pain and suffering, especially at the moment to do hard work.  On the other hand, this process is not portrayed among the characters from the picture: some of them appear to be having a day-off, or being busy in day-to-day activities.

Answer 2

the answer is in the title

"Water Never Hurt a Man" tells us that the story has to do with water somewhat, the picture shows men, that appear to be dealing with water, they must be cleaning it or storing it or conserving it, which leads me to believe that the water "never hurt man" because they are helping clean the water. So there, 2 similar things between the pictures are that they bith have to do with water and they both support or relate to the title. I guess two differences would be that "Water Never Hurt a Man" is a story, whilst the picture is a picture. Another difference is that "Water Never Hurt a Man" tells a story through narrative writing, while the picture tells a picture visually.

hope this makes sense
