Answer:

  • A sound of thunder is used to represent the T-Rex steps and Travis’s gun. The two things that cause giant turns in the story.
  • The butterfly Eckels kills is easy—the butterfly effect. Also, butterflies represent freedom, a freedom he killed when his actions changed the outcome of the election.
  • The path they’re supposed to stay on is written destiny. It’s the path that needs to be taken in order to get back to their normal lives.
  • The bullets represent the disturbance of the past, and future, all at once.

I hope that this helps you! :)

ratelena [41]

Answer:

The first part from Anne diary speaks about Anne life before she went flee away from the Nazis. In the text it mentions Otto telling Anne that,"Nor do we want to fall into their clutches ourselves. So well leave of our own accord and not wait to be hauled away." Based on this quote Anne Frank and Otto are terrified of the treatment that they will get from the Nazis and they do not want to be bombed. Anne and her family prefer to make preparations to go into hiding. . The next part of the writing describes Anne Frank and her family life after staying hidden for serval months away from the Nazis. Anne speaks about experienceing loneliness and isolation about the way the world was. Anne writes in an passionate tone. Her style of writing provides the reader to form a connection with her because she writes down all of her feelings and emotions on paper. The structure of the text tells me how both of the experience she had made her feel. The way she structure the text helps readers gain more insight of the monstrosities that took place back then.

Toward the end of Part I of Oedipus the King, Oedipus and Jocasta meet and have a long dialogue. Beginning in line 665, Jocasta
Brums [2.3K]

Answer and Explanation:

Jocasta explains that she does not trust the words of the prophets, because in the past, a prophet told her ex-husband that his son would kill him. In fear, her ex-husband drove the child out of the city and was killed years later, at a crossroads by a band of thieves, just before Oedipus arrived. This makes Oedipus very afraid, as it confirms the prophecy he received.

That's because Oedipus knows that he is not a legitimate child of the parents who raised him and that he was found as a baby. In addition, he killed a man near the crossroads to which Jocasta's ex-husband was killed. In that case, it is likely that he killed her husband and then married her, which proves the terrible prophecy he received that said he would kill his own father and lie with his own mother.

In an essay, explain how the alliteration in "Full Fathom Five" helps convey the atmosphere of the poem. Think about where the p
Alenkasestr [34]
The mood of the poem is sad and dark, describing where the bones of someone's father are laying (at the bottom of the ocean.). Alliteration helps convey this mood because the repetition of sounds, especially the 'f' and 's' sounds, make a sound that resembles the rush of waves or the sound you hear if you're underwater. 
The first example is in the first line, the 'f' sound is repeated in "Full Fathom Five thy Father lies". Then, for a second example, in lines 4-7, the 's' sound is repeated in "Suffer a Sea-change / Into Something rich and Strange. / Sea-nymphS". Again, those two sounds represent the sound and feeling of being underwater where the body is resting.
