Answer:
C - Passion, commitment and intimacy.
Explanation:
According to Robert Stenrberg's theory, love can be understood in terms of three components that together can be viewed as forming the vertices of a triangle. Altough it's more of a metaphor rather than a strict model, those three components are intimacy, passion and commitment and each of them manifests an aspect of love.
Answer: Williams compares the world after the war to a dying landscape. Through a number of metaphors, the poet describes the terrible consequences of the war.
Explanation:
<em>"Spring and All"</em> is a poem by William Carlos Williams (1883 – 1963). In order to understand the poem, it is important to note that it was written towards the end of World War I. The world still suffered the consequences of the war, and was slowly recovering.
That being said, the poet uses a number of metaphors to both describe the terrible consequences of war, and yet leave the readers hopeful about the future. At the beginning of the poem, Williams describes a road which leads to a "contagious hospital", and the dying landscape by the road. There are bushes that have become twigs and muddy fields. The adjectives that Williams uses to describe the landscape serve as a metaphor for the state of the world at the end of the war:
<em>"....small trees
</em>
<em>with</em><em> dead, brown leaves </em><em>under them
</em>
<em>leafless vines</em><em>."</em>
Just like the nature, the world as people knew it before the war has also become unrecognizable. However, there is a change of tone at the end of the poem. Williams announces the beginning of spring, which will bring life. There is a promise of a better future that will come after the war.
Answer:
Buck learns quickly because his teachers are strict and unforgiving
Explanation:
According to the excerpt from The Call of the Wild by Jack London, Buck was intentionally placed between Dave and Solleks because he was a keen learner who obeyed instructions.
His instructors Dave and Francois were ready to nip him when he strayed so because of this, he kept in line and kept Dave and Solleks in line too
Buck's behavior supports the theme that "one must lead with a firm hand" because his teachers never fail to nip him if the need arises.
