On the poem “Landscape with the Fall of Icarus”

Tom [10]

According to its title, Brueghel's painting is meant to portray the Fall of Icarus. It shows Icarus' legs splashing into the water as his wings fail. As the title also implies, it shows a landscape, seemingly just to give a setting for the fall.
Auden's poem references specific details from this painting, but does so with the intention of pointing out how people, too often, ignore other human suffering. Her poem focuses on the bystanders in the painting, and how they are all turned away from Icarus as he experiences this tragedy.

What is the parallel of this sentence. To help the cause you can write a check. Collect donations or signing the petition

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

To help the cause, you can write a check, collect donations, or sign the petition.

Explanation:

Parallel structure is the use of the similar or same structure of words in a sentence. It is the use of the same grammatical form within a sentence.

In the given sentence, the parallel structure should be in the verbs "write", "collect" and "sign". And since the last verb "sign" is used in the continuous form while the first two are in their present tense form, it will also be changed according to the tense of the first two.

Thus, the final parallel structure of the given sentence will be

"To help the cause, you can write a check, collect donations, or sign the petition."

The details of this conversation about a poem Tweedledee has just recited suggest that Alice knows this poem and has heard it re

jeka94

I looked this question up and found the passage it is about. It is the following:

Read this excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.

"I like the Walrus best," said Alice: "because you see he was a LITTLE sorry for the poor oysters."

"He ate more than the Carpenter, though," said Tweedledee. "You see he held his handkerchief in front, so that the Carpenter couldn't count how many he took: contrariwise."

"That was mean!" Alice said indignantly. "Then I like the Carpenter best—if he didn't eat so many as the Walrus."

"But he ate as many as he could get," said Tweedledum.

This was a puzzler. After a pause, Alice began, "Well! They were BOTH very unpleasant characters—"

Answer:

The details of the conversation suggest that:

B. Alice cannot use reason to win an argument int he mirror world.

Explanation:

No matter what reason Alice gives to choose a character as her favorite from the poem she just heard, Tweedledee and Tweedledum will refute it. Even though her logic is not incorrect, neither is theirs. Therefore, logic and reasoning are not enough for Alice to win an argument in this world. She may very well say something completely biased, choosing a character simply for the sake of choosing. Then, they will not be able to argue with her. But, offering explanations based on logic will always be a problem, since they will be able to offer a counterargument.
