Answer:

c. References specific plot points  

Explanation:

Although Romeo and J * really show that we must follow our hearts, this is not the theme of the story narrative created by Shakespeare, but a specific point in the plot of that story.

The theme of a work does not refer to a specific point on the plot, but rather the general message that the narrative covers.

In Romeu and J * the theme would be the violence caused by love and the struggle of individuals to get rid of the past of their families. Within these themes, the romance between the two young people and their willingness to follow their hearts do not cover all the complexity and nuances of the work and therefore cannot be considered the theme.

Read the sentence below and answer the following question: What had been the study and desire of the wisest men since the creati
nordsb [41]

The correct answer is "the desire of wise men".

In her play "Frankenstein" (1823), Mary Shelley uses different syntactic strategies in order to put emphasis on certain information. For example, she could have written something like this: "within my grasp is the study and desire of the wisest men...".  

Instead, she chose to present the information in a rhetorical way. She introduced the "wh" word "what" opening the window for the reader to question himself what is the meaning of "what"?  

What is THAT THING that had been the study and desire of wisest men since the creation of the world?  What did they want to know?

High school graduates should be required to take off time before entering college. How can this thesis statement be improved? Hi
maks197457 [2]

The correct answer is D. High school graduates should be required to take a year off to pursue community service projects before entering college in order to increase their maturity and global awareness.


You want to create a comprehensive thesis statement that is going to cover all the information you are going to mention later on in the essay. The thesis statement is the most important sentence in an essay because it will give you the gist of what the entire essay is about, and here, that statement is sentence D.

After doing a close reading, why should you analyze the figurative language in a text?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

After doing a close reading, you should analyze the figurative language in a text for the following reason:

b. to reveal hidden meanings.

Explanation:

If a reader relies only on what is denotative, that is, on what is on the surface, he or she will certainly be missing out on a lot of messages that can only be perceived and understood with an open mind and thorough eyes which also attain to what is connotative, that is, to what is between the lines and goes way beyond the core meaning of words.

In Voltaire's "Candide", the main character starts to lead a farmer's life and his friend Pangloss suggests they are living in the best of possible worlds, to which Candide responds with the classic line:

“That is very well put . . . but we must cultivate our garden.”

The author is certainly not literally talking about a garden; he is rather symbolically referring to something that is much more profound and meaningful and lies within the very essence of mankind. Therefore, there is indeed a hidden meaning in those words, and it must be analyzed and interpreted so the reader can better profit from the text.
