What is the literal meaning of the poem lobster by Anne sexton

English
1 answer:
lidiya [134]3 years ago
3 0

Literal meaning of the poem is that there is a lobster in world that does not understand the world of humans and lives its life unknowing of it.

Explanation:

The lobster is called 'A shoe with legs, ' in the very first line of the poem and then it is called to be  'a stone dropped from heaven'.

From then on many comparisons are made and it is shown that the lobster is blissfully unaware of the life of humans, their quirks and how they spend their time in their world as it blissfully lives in its life  without being bothered.

It is him that also doesn't know that these humans have a completely different idea of him that he has of himself and remains blissfully oblivious until its end.

For which of the following situations would you most likely use critical listening?
Nadya [2.5K]
As for this question together with the options presented with it, the most probable answer and the most likely one to be the correct answer is the third option which is C. group discussions.

Though critical listening can also be utilized in the other situations presented as options, critical listening would be very useful during group discussions. During conversation with friends and family, it isn't advisable since it might ruin the bond build between parties and might instigate something worse. During a play, yes, you can, but not all the time. In persuasive speeches, it is more on the details that are being thrown.

Reread the arguments on the previous slide about the positive and negative aspects of social media. In a well-constructed paragr
storchak [24]

Answer:

<u>Sample Response: </u>The argument in favor of social media use is the stronger argument. The article claims that students do better in school when they use social media. The author gives anecdotal evidence that students use social media to discuss classwork, then uses empirical evidence to show that grades went up in a study where students used social media. The argument against social media is weak because it lacks specific evidence. The writer uses the rhetorical device of parallelism to list a variety of ill effects of social media use. However, the writer never offers any evidence for these negative effects. This writer uses the bandwagon fallacy by telling the audience that most people who want to do well do not use social media.

I just did the assignment.
