<em>Experts</em> can learn how the human mind is able to connect thoughts into words penned on paper with an emotional touch which reaches the mind of the reader.

2. What do you think is the value of studying the language of William Shakespeare whose writing is over hundreds of years old?

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Yes, "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" is an example of realism, even though Bierce employs romantic techniques in the story.

Explanation:

<u>Romanticism had among its characteristics the glorification of war and heroism. At first, that seems to be what Ambrose Bierce will do in his short story "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge".</u> The main character, Peyton Farquhar, is tricked into trying to burn a bridge that would allow Union soldiers to cross. Farquhar is a Confederacy supporter. He ends up being caught as a traitor and, when he is about to be hanged, he escapes. So far, Romanticism has prevailed.

<u>However, Bierce is only deceiving readers.</u> We are led to believe Farquhar has escaped, that the noose broke, and he found himself swimming in the creek, dodging bullets, free to return home. <u>We are soon disappointed</u>, however, as it is revealed that it was all his imagination - or even a hallucination - in the brief moments it took Farquhar to die. <u>The ending of the story is based on Realism. Far from being romanticized, it describes how horrid and gruesome death and war are, and how heroism is not always rewarded:</u>

<u><em>Peyton Farquhar was dead; his body, with a broken neck, swung gently from side to side beneath the timbers of the Owl Creek bridge.</em></u>

1.Change the statement to a question by introducing the sentence with the auxiliary verb.
postnew [5]

1. Have you finished your report?

2. Can cats climb trees?

3. Must I go to bed now?

4. May I have a slice of pie?

5. Can you return your library book?

An auxiliary verb (also known as a helping verb) helps the main verb by giving the sentence a sense of time. For example, the auxiliary verb "will" tells the reader that whatever the main verb action is, it will be in the future. The auxiliary verb is found between the subject and the main verb in a sentence. To form a question, the auxiliary verb can move before the subject. A sentence can have more than one auxiliary verb.
