Answer: Explanation

Toynbee the Historian said, "Cities are man's festering sores on the body politic." Today, humankind yearns for some nice clean fresh air to breath and clean pure water to drink. <em>Surely  it is a relief and some sort of cure for those sores, having these balms and oases so close to us.</em> Some parks offer pleasant environment right in the middle of the gray urban areas.

Write a literary essay about an intercalary chapter of The Grapes of Wrath. Your essay should
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The structure of the novel “The Grapes of Wrath ” is unusual.

Explanation:

The structure of “The Grapes of Wrath ” by “John Steinbeck” is quite unconventional. There are narrative chapters in which the narrator is omnipresent and sees everything and is aware about all the thoughts and actions of all the characters. But, in the intercalary chapters, there is a pause in the main narrative and the narrator changes. The views on this break is mixed, some feel that it is frustrating, and the two distinct sections of the novel are not properly related, others say that this has been thoughtfully by John Steinbeck.

The characters in the novel face a lot of conflicts because they are forced to travel away from their homes to California. They migrate as farmers ion hope of achieving success during The Great Depression.

The intercalary chapters in the novel are also called the 'inner chapters', which do not directly affect John but indirectly convey the inputs on the struggles of the characters. The main reason of the intercalary chapters is to give an idea about how the world (social and economic system of the world) was during that time to the readers. Many literary techniques are applied in the “intercalary chapters”. Most common is dramatization. Use of monologues and dialogues show the historical reasons behind the events that are occurring in the story. For example, how farmers were forced so sell their lands and how drought forced the farmers to migrate to a new place. The language used in the novel, specially in the structures of King James Bible reflect about the moral beauty of the novel. These lines give the novel a spiritual touch as well.

Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Dred Scott v. Sandford, written by Justice Taney.
OleMash [197]

Answer:

Justice Taney uses the argument that African Americans are not citizens to prove that they are not citizens.

Explanation:

The Court said that black people "are not included, and were not intended to be included, under the word 'citizens' in the Constitution, and can therefore claim none of the rights and privileges which that instrument provides for and secures to citizens of the United which make that a fallacy.

You have a budget of 3000 euros for a family trip abroad. Your family has 4 members who want to go on this holiday. Draw up a pl
saul85 [17]

<u>Here is what I could come up with:</u>

Family of four from Germany, wants to go abroad to Michigan. They have 3000 euros which is equivalent to 3,297.07 US dollars. Currently round trip tickets to Michigan are around 380 euros, so times four would be 1,520 euros total, $1,670.51 . Once they were to get to Michigan they would need a vehicle to rent. The average price for a small SUV is $60 per day + extra fees. The average cost of gas is $2.75 per gallon, maybe $68.75 on gas . They would stay for a week. So, $420 average on the vehicle.

A good place to check out is the DIA. The DIA has an entry fee of $14,  $56 total. The DIA is full of beautiful art. A great spot to stay is Petoskey, it is further north and there are many sights to see. Assuming they would need a hotel for four, average price would be $120 per night, $840 for 7 days .

Money spent on food could range from $200 to $450 depending on how much is needed.

If they went to Petoskey they could visit Mackinaw to get some famous Mackinaw fudge. Average price for that could be from $10 to $30 depending on what is bought. There are also ferries in Mackinaw to Mackinaw Island. Mackinaw Island has horse back riding, carriage rides, lots of food, and amazing sights. It would be $23 per person for a round trip on the ferry to the island, $92 total. There are many scenic trails to use, I went to Bear River Valley Recreation Area it is was very fun. They could also go to the sleeping bear dunes to see Lake Michigan on the way back to the airport.

Total cost for the trip would be around $3,365.26 which is equal to 3,054.77 euros. I went a bit over the budget but there are always ways to shimmy down the price if they were to find deals online on the vehicle, hotel and food. But the sights to see and places to go are amazing. 3000 euros for a abroad trip is not a lot but it is do able.

Andrej [43]
The correct answer is metaphor.
Passing the torch is a metaphor which means that you are passing on some traditions or knowledge to someone else. It can't be an allusion because allusion is a reference to something outside of the text; simile is comparison using words such as like or as; personification is when non-human entities or objects have human characteristics.
