Paraphrase the following lines from Thoreau's Walden:

English
1 answer:
Elis [28]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

When Thoreau says <em>superfluous wealth</em> he refers to money that is not needed or there is more of it than enough and that with all that money can be bought just things that we do not need. Those things make us blind for what should be really important in life. As he goes on in the second sentence -  we can have money, but we can not buy what our soul needs. Life can be experienced far more fully when living simply.

What sorts of things/ideas are valued in Henry's world? How are his values different from those of his society
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Henry's world values things like money and communication between people. This is different from what Henry values, because he likes silence, literature and the company itself, giving no importance to interpersonal relationships.

Explanation:

This question is about "Time Enough at Last" where we know the story of Henry, a man who works in a bank and does not find time or silence to read. That's because Henry loves literature, but all the time people hinder him, even in his own home, where his wife tries at all times to talk to him more.

One day a bomb is dropped on Henry's town and kills everyone but him. When he sees that the world has the silence and tranquility that he values so much, he is happy, because he will have all the books in the world to read, without anyone interrupting him. Meanwhile, Henry falls and breaks his glasses, which he cannot see without. There is no one who can prescribe other glasses for Henry, making him unable to read and living in eternal solitude.
