Answer:

The sentence that best states the main idea of the text is indeed the third one: I have always wondered if dragons existed, and I hope they did.

Explanation:

In "Nights and Dragons", Abigail Prynne reveals the fascination she has had for dragons since she was a kid. She wondered if dragons existed and, by the time she was thirteen, she decided to start researching.

Even though she found out that science would not, in general, support the idea of the existence of dragons, which could be rather discouraging, she never lost hope. She remembered her grandmother's words and chose to think there's more to it than just science.

She was, at last, able to find biologists who claim dragons were not an impossibility for nature. Still, there was no proof, only claims. She ends the text in an undecisive tone, but also a dreamy one. She will keep on wondering; the possibility is still alive.

"The Crucible" is an allegory, a symbolic story with different layers of meaning. Different characters and elements from "The Cr
cupoosta [38]

We can combine the elements of "The Crucible" with the elements of Red Scare/McCarthyism as follows:

  • A. Witchcraft = 6. Communism
  • B. Abigail Williams = 4. Senator McCarthy
  • C. The Devil's Book = 1. Blacklist
  • D. Salem Courts = 2. HUAC
  • E. John Proctor = 3. Arthur Miller
  • F. Hysteria = 5. The Red Scare
  • G. The Forest = 8. The Soviet Union
  • H. Accused Witches = 7. Suspected Communists

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Arthur Miller, the screenwriter of "The Crucible" wanted to write a story that represented the moment of collective madness that was manifesting in the USA, due to fear of communism.
  • This wave of dread and madness was established by Senator McCarthy who started a wave of accusations from people involved in communism in the same way that Abigail Williams accused people of accusing people of witchcraft in play.
  • People accused of communism, who were tried by HUAC, are represented by people accused of witchcraft, who were tried by Salem Courts.
  • The Soviet Union was considered the cradle of communism and in the play, the forest was considered the place where witches arose.
  • For this reason, people became hysterical in fear of communism, just as in play people became hysterical in fear of witchcraft.
  • People accused of being involved in communism went into a kind of blacklist, just like in the play, where people accused of witchcraft are believed to have their name in the devil's book.

Arthur Miller set himself up as a play character, played by John Proctor, who tried to report on the abuses caused by Abigail, but ended up being heavily punished.

What is the universal message on the story called ''brothers'' by Bret Lott
malfutka [58]

Answer:Exploring three generations of the men in his family -- his father and his two uncles, his own two brothers, and his two sons -- Bret Lott spins a sweeping true saga of the ties that bind. With quiet grace and his trademark talent for finding powerful revelations in the most unlikely places, master novelist Lott delivers a bracingly personal and honest memoir that confronts the often inexpressible complexities of contemporary maleness. Fathers, Sons, and Brothers describes not only the ways men and boys relate to one another but also how their lives evolve over decades, endlessly imitative yet varied. In the end, these essays constitute a celebration of humanity, regardless of gender -- of joy and sorrow, of intimacy and distance, of lingering secrets and universal truths.

How can I write those ?
charle [14.2K]
So the introduction paragraph would introduce the audience on what you're writing about. Like you could give your thoughts on it, etc. It would also introcude the main topics of your body paragraphs (kinda). The last sentence is either a transition or the Thesis.

Then there's a body paragraph, where you would focus on one thing and write about it. (For example, one body paragraph may be about glitches that self driving cars may have, etc). You would then cite a quote or use some form of evidence (from credible sites, don't use wikipedia lol.. also look at mla citations on purdue owl).

Next you would write a counter claim (I know it's confusing, but you write about something opposing your claims and such)... In this case, it could be about how self driving cars could be more accurate than human drivers, etc. If you want to go the extra mile, you could cite a quote in there ;) (mla format, go search it up on websites like Purdue owl).

Finally a conclusion, reflecting on what you have been writing about, etc.

(I made this guide really simple, as these prompts don't look like they ask for much, and arent as complicated compared to college level writing.)
