Even though “Ethan
Frome”, novel by Edith Wharton, was written over a hundred year ago, it is
still widely read today because the theme of the story is world-wide and
all-time relevant. This universality of the theme, representing the society and
morality as an obstacle to fulfill desires (in this case love), makes “Ethan
Frome” relevant a hundred years after and it would probably still be relevant
in future, as it’s close to every human’s heart.
Both “Romeo and Juliet”
by William Shakespeare and “Ethan Frome” by Edith Wharton deal with the problem
of society and morality as an obstacle to fulfill certain desires, which is in
both cases forbidden love. Considering the theme, both “Romeo and Juliet” and “Ethan
Frome” have the same tragic tone, but the ends show how different and twisted destiny
can be.
<span>The love story of Ethan
Frome and Mattie is still relevant today, after a hundred years, and probably
will stay relevant in future as the theme of the story is on universal level of
human struggle with feelings, social norms and morality. </span>
Answer: Hello there! I wish that there was a bit more context/info about the photo in question, but believe that your answer is A. If not, it may be C.
Explanation: <u>For Choice A</u> - One thing that snapshots and butterflies share is their swiftness. Images can be taken in the blink of an eye, while our little winged friends can flutter their wings fast as lightning.
My reasoning for <u>Choice C</u> is a bit different and concerns the values of both objects. Snapshots hold precious memories within them, while the beauty of a butterfly is, similarly, cherished by many people, thus creating a tone that's meant to make the reader feel emotional over them both.
<em>Extra reasoning if needed: </em>
Choice B - I didn't feel that this was the right answer because the tone just didn't awestruck to me...? (I think it just would've been better if I had more context or the excerpt of the poem to help me with my decision.)
Choice D - The colorfulness of a butterfly isn't alluded to in this part of the poem.
I apologize for not being able to give a very definite answer, but I hope that this may help you with your assignment/process of elimination somehow!
The answer is C. Childhood.
This expression "....Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free." implies that the people had got closely together - huddled- because they were tired and were yearning for freedom. Therefore, option D. <em>Tired / yearning</em> is the correct one. A. <em>Give / your </em>will not be helpful to infer the context since 'your' by itself conveys no meaning. B) <em>Masses / free </em> refer to the fact that the masses desired to be free , but they do not refer to the reason why the masses had got to be closely together. C) <em>Breathe / me </em> are not giving any hints; to breathe refers to the desire of the masses to be free and 'me' is a pronoum which by itself means nothing in this context.
