What is a central idea of the poem "Talking in Their sleep Use two details from the poem to support your response.
denis23 [38]
If you're talking about the poem by Edith M. Thomas then I believe that the central idea is about how people can base something off of their looks. I'm not completely sure, but it talks a lot about how they look dead, but then explain that they are not. To me that makes it sound a lot like the saying "don't judge a book by its cover".

It could also mean that things take time to grow into something beautiful, and before that happens, you have to go through something difficult, seeming as if it is the end of the world. But then you blossom and bloom and everybody will look in awe.

I'm not completely sure these are right, and I'm not sure we read the same poem, but you didn't state the author's name. This was just off the top of my head but I hope it helps you or gives you an idea :)

What is the Narrative hook for jack and the beanstalk?
natulia [17]

Answer:

Hi sorry I'm answering a little late but I believe the Narrative hook for jack and the beanstalk is the opening sentence or paragraph in the story.

Explanation:

In short, a narrative hook is something in the beginning of a story that grabs the reader's attention and makes them want to continue reading. This is the literary technique many authors use to capture the readers interest.

I'm not sure what the first sentence in jack and the beanstalk is, but I believe it would be the narrative hook.  

Examples of narrative hooks include:

"A screaming comes across the sky."

"It began the usual way, in the bathroom of the Lassimo Hotel." and

"It was love at first sight."

Most narrative hooks are the first sentence, however, sometimes hooks can be the first paragraph or page as well.

There are also different kinds of hooks,  there are ones beginning with a question, there are hooks using descriptive words creating a picture in the readers mind, there are hooks that are statements, there are hooks that give a fact or statistic, there are hooks using a quotation, and there are hooks which have a metaphor or simile.

Hope this helped.
