Answer:Johnny's disguise idea because he doesn't want to cut his hair that he took so long to grow and that it symbolizes that he is a greaser.

Explanation :

In chapter 4, Ponyboy and Johnny flee from their hometown and travel to Windrixville, where they hide out in an abandoned church on Jay Mountain. In chapter 5, Johnny goes to the store to buy supplies and returns to the abandoned church with a bottle of peroxide. Ponyboy panics as Johnny flicks open his knife and explains to Pony that the police have their descriptions. He tells Ponyboy, "We're gonna cut our hair, and you're gonna bleach yours" (Hinton, 61). Ponyboy initially refuses to allow Johnny to alter his appearance, and says, "Oh, no! . . . No, Johnny, not my hair!" . ***Ponyboy takes pride in his long, silky hair because it is what distinguishes him as a greaser. Pony's hair is a significant part of his identity, and he refers to it as his "trademark." ***Johnny then explains to Ponyboy that it is better than having the police cut their hair, which is something that they will definitely do once they catch them. Johnny finally convinces Ponyboy to let him cut and bleach his hair, which makes Ponyboy miserable and depressed.

Read the excerpt from "On Imagination" by Phillis
Degger [83]

The line "And all attest how potent is thine hand," shows a different justification than the others, as shown in option D.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The speaker justifies the queen's works very subjectively throughout the poem.
  • This speaker reinforces how great and wonderful the queen is, like all the things she gets involved with.
  • However, in the line "And all attest how potent is thine hand," the speaker shows that the queen's actions are good because her hand is powerful.

With this, the speaker shows a different justification, stating that the queen works for her greatness, using her hands to act and promote improvements.

Write an essay that describes your favorite villain. Include details about the villains characteristics
wlad13 [49]

A villain is an evil character in any fictional writing or motion picture. He is an evil incarnate that is always satisfying his wishes and fancies. The story revolves around a conflict between a hero and the villain. He is there to harm the hero and those people who are related to him. He is a genius gone astray or a mad scientist who is using his knowledge to bring devastation and chaos in the world. The major drawback in their personality is their overconfidence and pride. His end symbolizes that “pride comes before a fall” (Francis, n.p, n.d).

The batman a comic strip which appeared in D.C comics was in 1960 televised into a series (Jourdian, n.p, 2001). Then Tim Burton successful conversion of this comic strip into a full-scale movie in 1989 made Batman a household name. He is a very realistic hero who has all the qualities that human beings can possess like detective skills, physical strength, money and a scientific mind. This superhero that has no superhuman qualities about him fights all kinds of evil people from ordinary ones to superhuman foes who possess extraordinary powers. Batman’s various villains are Penguin, Riddler, Scarecrow, Joker, Mister Freeze, Poison ivy, Ras Al Gul and Bane.

“Bill Finger and I created the Joker. Bill was the writer. Jerry Robinson came to me with a playing card of the Joker. That’s the way I sum it up. [The Joker] looks like Conrad Veidt — you know, the actor in The Man Who Laughs, [the 1928 movie el] by Victor Hugo based on the Novo. Bill Finger had a book with a photograph of Conrad Veidt and showed it to me and said, ‘Here’s the Joker’. Jerry Robinson had absolutely nothing to do with it, but he’ll always say he created it till he dies. He brought in a playing card, which we used for a couple of issues for him [the Joker] to use as his playing card” (Lovece, n.p, 2005).

Behind the non-serious clown lurks a very scheming nasty creature who is hell-bent on destroying Batman. In his own words

Identify three to five types of figurative language commonly used in poetry and narratives.
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Symbolism, irony, imagery, metaphors, and allusions.

Explanation:

Symbolism is when an object or idea begins to stand for more than it literally represents, through the use of repetition. Irony is used to draw attention to the contrast between what is expected by the reader and the reality of what actually occurs. Imagery is using descriptive words to help the reader visualize a setting or scene. Metaphors equate two things that are not the same for the sake of comparison. Allusions indirectly reference an event, person, or object
