Why do you think dickens chose to introduce oliver in a workhouse? how does this choice affect the story that follows? support y
Sever21 [200]

Oliver Twist was written there was no welfare state and so there was practically nothing as mechanisms for dealing with the poor as we know them today. The mortality rate for childbirth was very high this is one of the main problems that are presented throughout the novel.

<h3> How does this choice affect the story that follows?</h3>

Oliver Twist is born and raised in a life of poverty and tragedy in a workhouse in the fictional town of Mudfog, located 70 miles to the north of London.

From the depictions of workhouses and baby farms, we can see Dickens is expressing great concern for the social aspects of the time. The fact that the story initially is set on the baby farm later on the workhouse wants to centre our attention on the social injustice inherent at the time. We can see this is a depiction of some of the ideals of Dickens in a struggle for a more equal society.

As is expressed in the story “Some people are nobody's enemies but their own”― we can infer there is a lot of concern from the author dealing with the idea societies should be more equal.

Thus, this could be the answer.

- Reldresal is sure that Gulliver and his land cannot exist, stating that Gulliver must
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Reldresal cannot believe that someone like Gulliver could live in the same world as him, giving no chance to other realities.

Explanation:

Reldresal is a character from Gulliver's Travels, a book by Irish writer Jonathan Swift. He is known by his satirical works. Satire is defined as the use of irony or sarcasm to criticize people's vices in a political context.

Gulliver's Travels narrates the man character's trips to different places, such as Lilliput and Blefuscu, which were two rival islands. Reldresal is Gulliver's friend in Lilliput, and he is the principal secretary for private affairs.

In this case, the quote in the question satirizes small-mindedness since the secretary cannot believe that something bigger than the reality he knew could be happening in the same world. He even says that a hundred mortals like Gulliver would destroy Lilliput in a short time; meaning that they could destroy everything very fast. This way, Reldresal shows that he doesn't give a chance to different realities.

Identify the essential element missing from the following topic sentence. Giving holiday gifts can be​ expensive! A. controlling
Stolb23 [73]

The appropriate response is “B. Limited topic.”

 

A topic sentence is, by definition, a controlling idea, so we can safely assume “A” is not what is missing because this sentence is a topic sentence.  Because a topic sentence is generally one of the first sentences in a paragraph, we know it is not missing a concluding idea because that would appear toward the end of a paragraph, so we know "C" is not the answer.  We can further determine that support for the main point is not missing from the topic sentence because support for the main point would appear following the topic sentence within the body of the paragraph, so we know "D" is not the answer.  What is missing, however, is a limited topic.  The way things currently stand with “Giving holiday gifts can be expensive!” is  a bit broad (almost too vague) which means there is potentially so much that can be covered that anything covered will be too superficial and underdeveloped.   By limiting the scope and narrowing the topic by, for instance, specifying the holiday, the types of presents, or the cost, one would be able to provide a well-developed and focused paragraph.
