In "The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin, Mrs. Mallard learns that her husband had died in an accident. unknowing to the other people, she is secretly happy that at last she is free from the authoritative hand that she was kept under. And the given passage shows her going to a room and thinking of how long her life will be, happily and cheerfully imagining the upcoming days without that dreadful husband to look out for. <em><u>Irony is when something happens that is unexpected and quite the contrary of what is wanted or told.</u></em> The above passage is ironic as she was thinking of her long life just before her own death.

lawyer [7]

Answer:

In "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus,"  Williams's use of the word "unsignificantly" suggests:

D. that it is not important.

Explanation:

[...]

<u><em>unsignificantly </em></u>

<em>off the coast </em>

<em>there was </em>

<em> </em>

<em>a splash quite unnoticed </em>

<em>this was </em>

<em>Icarus drowning</em>

<em />

"Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" is a poem by author William Carlos William. The poem describes the painting by Pieter Brueghel of the famous mythological story. <u>The painting depicts the character, Icarus, falling from the sky into the blue water of the ocean after the wax wings he had used to fly with were melted by the sun. However, as both the poem and the painting make sure to highlight, no one notices Icarus's fate. The world simply goes on without any consideration for the suffering of poor Icarus. The ship that was sailing by keeps on sailing; that farmer that was ploughing keeps on ploughing. If the event does not affect them directly, people give it no importance.</u>

How do stereotypes affect a way a culture lives
ra1l [238]

Answer:

" Stereotypes are one way by which history affects present life ".

Explanation:

In social psychology, a stereotype is a generalized belief about a particular category of people. It is an expectation that people might have about every person of a particular group.[citation needed] The type of expectation can vary; it can be, for example, an expectation about the group's personality, preferences, appearance or ability. Stereotypes are sometimes overgeneralized, inaccurate, and resistant to new information, but can sometimes be accurate.

While such generalizations about groups of people may be useful when making quick decisions, they may be erroneous when applied to particular individuals and are among the reasons for prejudicial attitudes.

Negative stereotypes can have harmful consequences for the quality of life of older adults and can also result in a major loss to society. With increases in life expectancy as well as reduced infirmity, many adults are aging well, but negative stereotypes of aging may put society at risk for losing the contributions of these vital and knowledgeable people. The potential individual and social effects underscore the need to understand the content of aging stereotypes in terms of their accuracy and applications. It is especially important to understand how negative stereotypes exacerbate poor performance in areas in which decline is real. That is, beliefs that memory is bad in old age can reduce motivation when increased motivation is needed instead. A framework for predicting and interpreting individuals' behavior is imperative to understand how aging stereotypes drive behavior in both positive and negative ways.

( I don't like stereotypes, I have never discriminated anyone, I consider everyone as my friends. )
