The Shot

English
1 answer:
dezoksy [38]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C) The story emphasizes a code of honor enforced by dueling with weapons.

Explanation:

"The Shot" is the first story from Pushkin's cycle of five short stories called <em>The Tales of the Late Ivan Petrovich Belkin</em>. Honor, revenge, and death are the main themes explored in this story. Silvio, a retired soldier, wants to defend his honor and take revenge many years after an argument in which another soldier disrespect him in front of their peers.

Duels, usually with pistols, were the main way of defending one's honor in the 18th and 19th century Russian Empire. Pushkin himself fought 29 duels and lost his life in the last one, in 1837. The dueling tradition in the Russian Empire died out slowly from the mid-19th century.

How are stage and film versions of a drama similar?
ipn [44]

Answer:

The stage and the film versions of a drama are similar in the sense that:

A. The viewer must infer the mood from the lighting and sound effects.

Explanation:

Lighting and sound effects play a major role in conveying the mood of a scene or a story as a whole. Both a stage and a film version of a drama will rely greatly on them to help the audience sense the atmosphere. That is why option A is the best choice. The other options, on the other hand, speak of imagining, envisioning and visualizing, which are basically the same thing. There would be no need to do so for the action, the setting, or the characters' looks for a stage or a film adaptation.
