Some interpretations of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein suggest that the story is an allegory that serves as a warning that it is da

ngerous for man to try and assume the power of creating life. Which excerpt from the text most effectively develops this allegory? "After days and nights of incredible labour and fatigue, I succeeded in discovering the cause of generation and life; nay, more, I became myself capable of bestowing animation upon lifeless matter." "Darkness had no effect upon my fancy, and a churchyard was to me merely the receptacle of bodies deprived of life, which, from being the seat of beauty and strength, had become food for the worm." "I became acquainted with the science of anatomy, but this was not sufficient; I must also observe the natural decay and corruption of the human body." “In other studies you go as far as others have gone before you, and there is nothing more to know; but in a scientific pursuit there is continual food for discovery and wonder.”

Answer:

"After days and nights of incredible labour and fatigue, I succeeded in discovering the cause of generation and life; nay, more, I became myself capable of bestowing animation upon lifeless matter."

Explanation:

This is the sentence that best shows how the story is an allegory that serves as a warning that it is dangerous for man to try and assume the power of creating life. In these lines, we see how Frankenstein was obsessed with exactly this pursuit. He tells us that he spent many days and nights of work and fatigue. Moreover, he also tells us that the purpose of all his effort was to learn how to bestow life upon lifeless matter.

Which person has the best qualifications to write a credible article about the
tangare [24]

Answer:

I think its B

Explanation:

since a professor has already written books on the production of food he should be well prepared for writing an article. People who already write have a better ability to grab a reader's attention.

the tv reporter has only visited a single fast food museum, so he wouldn't have much to write on.

the former worker is already mad at being fired (he would write negatively about the place) and only has knowledge about meat. (in my opinion)

the senator could be a good option but his field is law not writing.

hope this helps :-)

Help before 2:00 PLEASE confused about indirect object, direct object, and object of a preposition!
Rudiy27
Ok! 
An indirect object receives the object and comes between the verb and the direct object. For example, "I gave her a flower". In the sentence, "her" is the indirect object because "her" is receiving the object, "flower."
A direct object receives the action of the verb. For example, "She needs help". In the sentence, "help" is the direct object because it receives the action, "needs". It is what is needed. 
Another example: "I like cake." "Cake" is the direct object, because it receives the action, "like". 
The object of the preposition follows the preposition. "At school, I took a test."
In this sentence, "school" is the object of the preposition because it describes where and completes the preposition.
I hope this helped! If you're still confused, just send me a message! :)

What can you infer from prince prospero's name?
mixer [17]
If you take a look at the name Prospero, you will probably be reminded of the word prosperous. So, we can assume, based on the Prince's name, that he is prosperous, which means rich and successful, which is true, if you've read the story. However, he is a crazy, selfish hedonist, who doesn't think about his subjects at all, but rather just wants to please and save himself.
