What is the authors likely purpose for including paragraph 31? In “The Nose”
Oksana_A [137]

Paragraph 31

''He bit his lips in annoyance, left the coffee-house and decided not to smile or look at  anyone, which was not like him at all. Suddenly he stood rooted to the spot near the front  door of some house and witnessed a most incredible sight. A carriage drew up at the  entrance porch. The doors flew open and out jumped a uniformed, stooping gentleman  who dashed up the steps. The feeling of horror and amazement that gripped Kovalyov  when he recognized his own nose defies description! After this extraordinary sight  everything went topsy-turvy. He could hardly keep to his feet, but decided at all costs to  wait until the nose returned to the carriage, although he was shaking all over and felt  quite feverish.''

Answer: To show how people are taking themselves too seriously although they are the same as others

Explanation:  

In this paragraph, we can the main situation in ''The Nose'' by Nikolai Gogol and that is Kovalyov's nose loss which is showing a lot of irony and grotesque. He was terrified when he found out that his nose is walking freely on the streets but he was the most worried about what the other people will think about his loss.

  • With this irony, Gogol's purpose was to show readers how nonsense is the social position or title. He showed that most people are taking themselves too seriously because they are thinking that they are important in society but actually they are like everyone else.

This story is surreal but it is shown in the most realistic and detailed way.

Even in paraphrased work the reader should be able to identify where the paraphrase begins and end
balu736 [363]

It is TRUE to state that even in paraphrased work the reader should be able to identify where the paraphrase begins and end.

<h3>What is a paraphrase?</h3>

A paraphrase is a restatement of a text's or passage's meaning using another language. The name itself is taken from the Ancient Greek 'additional mode of expressing' via Latin paraphrasis. Paraphrasing is also known as paraphrasis.

The act of paraphrasing demonstrates that you comprehend the source sufficiently to express it in your own words. It also provides a strong alternative to utilizing direct quotations, which ought to be used sparingly.

The difference between Summary and Paraphrasing is given as follows:

  • The main idea of ​​the entire source is briefly and clearly expressed in an abstract form, but the paraphrase repeats the idea of ​​the source in detail.
  • Because a paraphrase contains all of the author's main ideas, it is usually as long as the original source, sometimes longer. However, summaries are always shorter.
  • Paraphrasing is most useful when you want to present or explore an author's ideas but don't think the original words are worth quoting directly. Paraphrasing is great because it helps you control the temptation to quote too much from the source.

what would the tone of walt whitman's poem "I hear America singing" be if the people in the poem were speaking rather than singi
katrin2010 [14]
The correct answer is "less hopeful". 
<span>This is because all the characters in the poem sing as they are doing their work, thus creating the identity of a happy America where the workers enjoy and sing. </span>
<span>If they weren't singing, they would be presented as people with no hope who are doomed to work day in day out for the elite. </span>
<span>This is not something that Whitman supported as he wanted to present America as a joyous place.</span>
