The proper noun in the sentence "I told Aunt Bess that my brother had won a special award for his research," is Aunt Bless.

Proper nouns have two distinct characteristics. They begin with capital letters, no matter in which part they appear within a sentence, and they name specific one-of-a-kind items.

All nouns are words which name places, things, people, animals, and ideas.

In this case, the proper noun refers to the name of a person.

Reread lines Lines 351-366: What do you learn about Parris through indirect characterization
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The indirect characterization of Reverende Parris in lines 351-366 reveals that he is nervous and hysterical.

Explanation:

"The Crucible" is a play written by Arthur Miller based on the true incidents of Salem witch trials, 1692.

The characterization of Reverend Parris in the play was also based on the true character with the same during Salem Witch trials. The author has picturized his character in the play as selfish and self-absorbed. He suffered from the feelings that someone wants to destroy him and take his position and he was also concerned so much about his reputation. That is why he builds up the story of what happened in the woods and used for his own defense.

<u>In lines 351-366, the indirect characterization of Reverend Parris reveals that he is nervous to face the crowd. The line in which he asks Putnam to leave him alone to pray for a while and Abigail's response to him, that he's been praying since midnight, reveals that he is nervous to face the crowd. He asks Putnam of what he will say to the crowd</u>.

Thus it shows that he is nervous and hysterical.

Read this excerpt from an Emily Dickinson poem.
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The answer is: They portray pride and self-worth as unimportant.

Explanation: In the excerpt from the poem “I’m Nobody! Who are you?,” the author Emily Dickinson  makes reference to the Somebodies: people who show a high opinion of themselves. She claims they keep talking about who they are and saying the same things to people who also keep saying the same things to everybody. Thus, she compares them to frogs that only croak and croak in the swamp.

In Langston Hughes’s poem “I Dream a World,” the repetition of the word “dream” emphasizes
Cloud [144]

<u><em>The correct answer is the following: the belief that dreams often remain unrealized due to oppression. </em></u>

<u><em> Actually in the fourth four line unit the note of skepticism is difficult to understand infact he talks about his world dream where misery doesn’t exist in men’s lives because it has replaced by the Joy. Finally Hughes comments that a world like this can only exist in his dream vision. </em></u>

<u><em>In  “I Dream a World” the character is the dreamer and visionary in the scheme of things but also the reader is engaged in this dreaming process, we can say that both dream the same dream. The implicit function of every  four line unit is to explain the reality that the vision of Hughes’s dream try to resolve. Hughes’ contrasting versions of the world or as he imagines are presented in each unit too. </em></u>

gregori [183]
Answer: Honeymoon

You could assert that from the story opening where he is enjoying lunch with his wife. The other answers do not work since he is clearly not there for a conference. Wedding is misleading since he just got married. And medical procedure does not work at all.
