What is the point of view in the monkeys paw

1 answer:

7 0

The third person point of view. We can tell this because of the pronouns the narrator uses throughout. If he/she used the pronouns "I, me, we, and us," in the narration of the story (dialogue is usually in first person no matter the point of view of a story), we would know the point of view is first person. But when the narrator uses "He, she, they, them," as Jacobs does, the point of view is third person. This particular narrator would be considered an objective narrator. He/she tells us the story of "The Monkey's Paw" as a neutral observer. The narrator is not a person from within the story, but someone on the outside

Select the correct text in the passage.

ioda

Answer:

The commons stand in terror of thy frown,

And dare not utter aught that might offend,But I can overhear their muttered plaints,Know how the people mourn this maiden doomed

Explanation:

Option A is the correct answer because it shows Haemon's reasonable nature seeing that it is quite different from the stance of his stubborn father Creon.

In the lines, he tells his father that he should listen to the people even though the citizens are too scared to air their opinions aloud but they are less than happy with the treatment of Antigone and they are in solidarity with her. Haemon tries to reason with his father by letting him know the displeasure of the people and that he should listen to them.

What do the four parts of the Christian biblical narrative (i.e., creation, fall, redemption, and restoration) say about the nat

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The four parts of the Christian narrative- creation, fall, redemption and restoration all lay emphasis on the goodness of God.

Explanation:

Christianity believes in the creation of man through God's want to have an image of his own to be by his side. But the fall (Satan deceiving Eve with the forbidden fruit) led to the banishment of man from the holy Garden of Eden. Even then, God, in his forever loving grace, didn't want to completely abandon his created being so he sent his only son to redeem men from their sins. this is through the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on the cross which is symbolic of the ransom paid by God to deliver his people from Hell. And through this redemption, man is restored to the same position he was put in God's kingdom. Through all these, we can know that God is grace and full of mercy, ever ready to forgive if we go to him with a repenting heart. but in times of sickness and trouble, it is hard to even think of God and his graces. We humans impulsively decide to work out things on our own. It is at times like this that God expects us to go to him and present our worries and troubles in front of him. He is always ready to listen and help in every circumstance. According to the Christian narrative, each and every situation should be taken to God and he alone will give us answers and help, even at times of illness. He alone is capable of providing the help, comfort and hope when mere man can do nothing in comparison to him. And this implies that no matter how serious any situation may be, for God there is nothing that is impossible for him to solve. As long as we are ready to let go and trust him fully, He is capable of doing anything, always ready to help out and set us free.

The creation of man was the most important work of God in that he made someone in his own image, to be exactly like him. But with human greed and distrust for God, disobedience and turning away from God occurred. The fall is evident of man's greed and distrust of God and his ways, even though he himself is the one who had brought us into this world in the first place. This fall is also necessary to know the full wrath of God and also show his soft side for man. Even after the disobedience and lying, He still sent his only son to redeem man from the peril of forever suffering in Hell. And as though that saving grace wasn't enough already, he also offered man a place in His kingdom, to be a part of his heavenly angel family. In all, he didn't stop loving his creation and is always ready to welcome us with open arms.

Anton [14]

Answer:

- States.

Explanation:

As per the question, the various periods of sleep from quiet sleep to actively moving about and crying would be called '<u>states</u>'. Psychologically, the sleep cycle consists of four to five distinct stages beginning from drowsiness in Rapid Eye Movement to deep non-Rapid Eye Movement sleep. Stage 2 involves the active sleep in which the child is witnessed actively moving and tweaking arms and legs while the 'quiet sleep' is demonstrated as the final stage 5 in which the infant's sleep becomes more sound and progressively deeper. Thus, these periods are characterized as 'states'.
