Answer:

The raven’s shadow has permanently darkened the speaker’s soul.

Explanation:

Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven" tells abut the loss of the speaker and his feeling of dejection and loneliness after the death of his love Lenore. The raven's visit emphasizes the depth of grief and heartbreak he had to endure, is still enduring and also the aloofness of his very existence.

The last stanza of the poem shows how the raven's visit had more deeply darkened the soul of the speaker. Initially, he had enjoyed the visit, conversing with it and even asking question. But when these questions pertain to Lenore and the raven's unceasing answer "<em>Nevermore</em>" made the speaker get mad and angry at the raven. The shadow of the raven cast on the floor is a symbol of the speaker's soul permanently darkened.

Atticus's summation to the jury is a powerful, brilliant speech. Write a paragraph (at least five sentences) of your personal re
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

He means that the justice system works only when each individual juror takes his duty seriously. This means that a juror must use reason and intellect, weigh the evidence objectively, and leave all biases and/or prejudices out of the courtroom.

Atticus's closing speech is found at the end of chapter 20 where he begins by saying that there aren't many complicated facts in this case. What the jury must remember, and what Atticus does not take time to retell for them is first, Mayella was beaten on her right side which signifies that the abuser was left-handed. Mr. Ewell is left-handed and Tom Robinson's left hand is crippled and unable to have hurt anyone. Next, there is no medical evidence showing that Mayella was raped by anyone, let alone by Tom. Finally, there are no secondary witnesses to testify for either side to say who is telling the truth. Therefore, Atticus shifts all of the blame to Mayella Ewell and places the word guilty upon her during his closing arguments. Atticus also blames the South's social and racial boundaries for the situation that the Ewells and Tom Robinson find themselves in that day.

Who are the "friends on shore" in the line "Good-night to all my friends on shore"?
Travka [436]

Answer:

A.  People who are awake when the speaker sleeps.

Explanation:

The poem "My Bed is a Boat" by Robert Louis Stevenson is a four-lined four-stanza poem that describes the very childlike scene for a child to sleep. Describing his bed as a boat, he fantasizes that sleeping is like sailing on a journey, which is a rather exciting way for a child to view sleep.

This children poetry simplifies the theme of sleeping and captures the childish nature of how sleep can be imagined as. The narrator of the poem is a small child who looks forward to sailing. He begins the poem by saying that "My bed is like a little boat; Nurse helps me in when I embark; She girds me in my sailor's coat And starts me in the dark." This childhood imagination of the very act of sleeping makes it more fun and exciting unlike the ordinary way of putting a child to bed. The second stanza reads "At night I go on board and say Good-night to all my friends on shore" which might be suggestive of the child bidding goodnight to those who are still awake. Children go to sleep before the adults so, the child narrator may have been talking about the adults who are still awake when he had to go to sleep.
