English

6 0

Loretta, despite her alcoholism and subservience to Iggy, a gang boss, is sympathetic towards Max because of his low station in life. At first, she is only concerned with keeping herself safe first from Iggy's anger and then from Kenny Kane, Max's father, who is violent and bad-tempered. When Loretta discovers that Kenny is keeping Max tied up, she tries to help him escape:

"Keeping your own kid tied up, it ain't right. He ain't the man I thought I remembered, that's for sure."

Loretta thought that she remembered Kenny being a better man, but is shocked out of her obedience by this cruel act. She still has some humanity, despite the abuse she suffers from Iggy and Kenny, and so she tries to redeem herself in a small way by helping Max. Her actions are selfless and she almost dies for standing up to Kenny.

Reread lines Lines 351-366: What do you learn about Parris through indirect characterization
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The indirect characterization of Reverende Parris in lines 351-366 reveals that he is nervous and hysterical.

Explanation:

"The Crucible" is a play written by Arthur Miller based on the true incidents of Salem witch trials, 1692.

The characterization of Reverend Parris in the play was also based on the true character with the same during Salem Witch trials. The author has picturized his character in the play as selfish and self-absorbed. He suffered from the feelings that someone wants to destroy him and take his position and he was also concerned so much about his reputation. That is why he builds up the story of what happened in the woods and used for his own defense.

<u>In lines 351-366, the indirect characterization of Reverend Parris reveals that he is nervous to face the crowd. The line in which he asks Putnam to leave him alone to pray for a while and Abigail's response to him, that he's been praying since midnight, reveals that he is nervous to face the crowd. He asks Putnam of what he will say to the crowd</u>.

Thus it shows that he is nervous and hysterical.

Discuss the use of the hands in public reading or speaking
Sergio039 [100]

[] Answer []

\boxed{Using \ hands \ helps \ explain \ the \ speech}

[] Explanation []

When public reading or speaking, there are a lot of do's and dont's when using your hands. If you use your hands in the correct way, you can guide your speech and catch your audience's attention.

Using your hands to speak or tell a story helps guide your speech. When telling about how big something was, you might use your hands to gesture or create something big. When describing something tiny, you will use your hands for the same thing.

Using your hands also helps you out in a number of ways. It helps prevent monotone. Monotone is when your voice does not contain any pitch or fluctuation, and you sound like robot. When using your hands, your voice will move the way your hands move. When your hands are by your side and flat, your voice might get flat. When you gesture to something big, your voice may get louder and have more depth.

\boxed{[] \ Eclipsed \ []}

Identifying a Sentence Fragment help
lubasha [3.4K]
Hello! 

I unfortunately cannot answer multiple questions in one answer, but what I can tell you, is the difference between a complete sentence and a fragment taken from one.  A complete sentence would be "When Catherine rode her bike to the store, she bought ice cream and cookies."  
A fragment is taken from a complete sentence, and it looks like this.
"When Catherine rode her bike to the store."
Hope I helped!

Have a wonderful day!  :)
