Fire is an important symbol in Frankenstein for many reasons.

1. Dr Frankenstein is compared to a 'modern Prometheus': Prometheus, in Greek mythology, gave fire (which symbolized knowledge) to humans and then suffered an eternal punishment for that. Frankenstein is trying to bring his own gift of knowledge (life) to humanity but his life is also ruined through this process.

2. Fire also is something that has two sides, each that can help or hurt. Building a fire can create warmth and light, but too much of it can cause death and destruction. This is also shown through Frankenstein's creation of the monster. Think of the saying "playing with fire".
(In a more specific instance, when the monster realizes that fire can destroy he uses it as a weapon (burning the villager's cottage) )

3. Fire also represents passion and desire. Both Frankenstein and the monster possess this fire--Frankenstein for knowledge and creation, the monster for acceptance. This fuels both of their efforts through the novel.

Answer:

Monoculture means one crop. Bees are important to our society as they pollinate fruits and vegetables which creates more food supply. Without them we wouldn’t have as much food or clothing and prices would be much higher for food and products.

Talk about a problem in your education system in your country?<br>what kind of problem is it?

9966 [12]

Answer:

Plagiarism

Explanation:

George Couros said, "Technology will not replace great teachers, but technology in the hands of great teachers can be transformational."

There is no doubt that the 21st century has unlocked a whole new world to education: a plethora of resources instantly available at the finger tips of anyone eager to learn. The problem though, lies in that that information is being laid to waste. The problem in education in the United States is not that teachers are failing to use technology, but rather that students are inadequately equipped with the tools they need to use technology appropriately. The problem is that students do not even understand plagiarism. Plagiarism 20 years ago was a much different type of infraction. Most often, if a student "cheated" it was that they copied off of a friend, they wrote the answers to a test somewhere the teacher wouldn't see, or they got a copy of a paper exam to study off of before the big test day. Today however, students plagiarize on a daily basis and don't even recognize what they are doing. Websites like Brainly.com and Quizlet allow students to ask questions, with no regard to the fact that they will get answers without having actually learned anything. The functions of "copy" and "paste" on every keyboard, every screen, and every device that reaches the internet are quickly becoming a perpetrator of the downfall of contemporary education. Rather than teaching students the skills they need to access this information appropriately, schools continue to use a method of schooling that encourages plagiarism. The worst of it is, that teachers recognize the problem, students are discouraged by their education, and yet...nothing changes. It won't be until education recognizes that students need skills and experiences rather than content and standards that education in America truly changes.
