Answer:
Charle's Dickens conveyed the importance of Christmas and Tradition in <em>"A Christmas Carol"</em> by showing that Christmas is all about <em>"giving rather than receiving."</em> Instead of spending time at work and being grumpy like Scrooge on Christmas Eve,<em> spending time with family is more important.</em> It also teaches people a lesson that <em>you cannot bring your wealth when you die</em>, thus,<u> it is more important to share your wealth for the common good and the happiness of others.</u>
Explanation:
"A Christmas Carol" is a story written by Charles Dickens, which was published in <em>1843.</em> It centers on the character of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miser who was visited by the <em>Three Ghosts of Christmas.</em> These ghosts were meant to teach him a lesson and to show him that<em> family is more important than wealth, especially during Christmas Day.</em> After these events, Scrooge miraculously changed into a reformed person.
Answer:
The first uses dialogue and character; the second uses first-person point of view.
Explanation:
The first excerpt is found in Chapter Eight titled "September 2nd, 1973" from <em>Fever 1793</em> by Laurie Halse Anderson is based on the yellow fever epidemic that ravaged Philadelphia. The story is from the point of view of the young Mattie Cook, describing how the pandemic had destroyed the lives of the people.
The second excerpt is from <em>The Summer of the Pestilence</em> by George Dodd Armstrong. The book also deals with the history of the same yellow fever that not only affected Philadelphia but also other parts of the nation such as Virginia.
While both books deal with the same pandemic, their dealing with the issue of unprecedented deaths differ a bit. The first book uses a dialogue-conversation approach, with the characters greatly involved whereas the second book uses the first person point of view to address the deaths. These two books may deal with the same issue but their approaches of the deaths and sick people differ such that their narrative plots also differ.
