Answer:

"forty little demons ... who are."

Explanation:

The word "who" is meant to refer to humans, so its use with mythological beings, animals and objects represents a grammatical error. This error can be seen in the text when the word "who" is used to refer to demons. Demons are not human beings, so they cannot be referenced by the words "who", being the correct one, use the word "which".

There is a grammatical error in: "forty little demons ... <u>who</u> are."

You could argue that since "demons" are not human beings but rather supernatural, evil spirits or entities (often meddling with humans' lives), they should not be referred to using the pronoun "who," but with "which."

However, it is understandable thanks to the context that the author is talking about human children here. Using the pronoun "which" to refer to them, although it would be grammatically correct, would sound very harsh because dehumanizing.

Billy Joel Poetry Assignment (Add space as necessary to complete assignment.) Name______________________________________________
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

poem Title  : My life by  Billy Joel

This is a song about strength. The strength to  self re-examine oneself, and the strength to go about life the way you desire it. The strength move away from aspect of your life you are not okay with. The strength to avoid toxic people around you, people who only see things in their own perspective. The poem was written during an era when the social expectation was mostly about conforming, doing things that the society expected even if it is driving you nut.

Quotations important to the song

1.<em>Got a call from an old friend</em>

<em>We used to be real close</em>

<em>Said he couldn't go on the American way</em>

<em>Closed the shop, sold the house</em>

<em>Bought a ticket to the West Coast</em>

<em>Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A</em>

   This gives us a background of who the song is directed to, someone who used to be very close to him but has take to another path in life and was expecting him is to join him on it.

2. <em>I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright</em>

<em>I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home</em>

<em>I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life</em>

<em>Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone</em>

<em />

This section potrayed his insistence on followinng his own path, not just conforming to others expectation.

3.<em> They will tell you, you can't sleep alone in a strange place</em>

<em>Then they'll tell you, you can't sleep with somebody else</em>

<em>Ah, but sooner or later you sleep in your own space</em>

<em>Either way it's okay you wake up with yourself</em>

this section is defined what he is expected to do, represeting societal expectations he is expected to conform with.

4. I never said you had to offer me a second chance

(I never said you had to)

I never said I was a victim of circumstance

This section is portrays that he is ready to find his own path in life rather than conforming. it shows strenght to explore and seek more in his own way

Discussable question that the poem evokes in your mind as a reader

The main question raise in the poem is about conforming. why should we conform? why we limit ourself just to satisfy others? why should we be something else other than what we truly want?

Think about a literary work you have recently read. Choose either the psychoanalytic or postcolonial critical theory, and explai
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

John Snow from a psychoanalytic perspective has a very punishing great ego built by Lord Stark's teachings. And a neurotic psychological structure.

Explanation:

The first element to back this answer is that in the first place, Jhon Snow from the ice and fire saga is a very dutiful person who always acts to fulfill the impositions made by people whom he respects. First of all from Lord Stark as he is his father. Now, because he has an unfinished Oedipus he doesn't have a strong id or ego. Struggling hard to show people he is worthy of their respect and acknowledgment. Thus, he developed a neurotic personality that is only broken with alcohol or high-risk situations in which he stops following his commands and act according to his desire. An example of this is when he marries Igrith.
