Which sentence/phrase is BEST to cite for author's word choices that suggest positive connotations?

English

Alika [10]3 years ago
5 0

I just answered a question exactly like this one but I will answer it anyways.

I believe the answer is: C)  Hiawatha...was probably based on a real person, a peaceful hero who helped to unite the Iroquois people hundreds of years ago.

This is because a connotation is an idea or feeling that a word invokes in addition to its literal or primary meaning. Seeing from the above information, Hiawatha seems to be about a positive event.

How does this final stanza of ah are you digging on my grave use irony to disappoint the speakers expectation?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

It uses irony to show that despite her expectation of being missed by someone, no one seemed to have the same sentiment. rather, she found that her dog was the one digging, not because he missed her but to bury his bone. He also added that he had forgotten she was buried there.

Explanation:

The final stanza of the poem <em>"Oh, Are You Digging On My Grave?"</em> by Thomas Hardy shows a dead woman expecting someone would remember her. The lines goes like this-

<u><em>"Mistress, I dug upon your grave </em></u>

<u><em>To bury a bone, in case </em></u>

<u><em>I should be hungry near this spot </em></u>

<u><em>When passing on my daily trot. </em></u>

<u><em>I am sorry, but I quite forgot </em></u>

<u><em>It was your resting-place."</em></u>

She heard someone digging her grave and then she began guessing who that would be, her husband 'who must have missed her' or her family or even her enemy. But it was none of them but rather her dog. Even then, she was happy to know that at least someone remembered her. Ironically, the dog wasn't there for her but rather to hide his bone in case he gets hungry on his walks. This irony in the scene's reality and the narrator's expectations shows how she must have been missed by someone. But it was nobody except her dog who wants to hide his bone not because he felt anything for her. Not only that, he also mentioned that he had quite forgotten that she was buried there.

How do we judge the quality of musical works and performances?
kirill [66]
We judge the quality of music works and performances by averting our attention to the sounds instruments make. The dramatic facial expressions actors/actresses portray on their face. The technique musicians use while playing their instrument. The way the costumes are designed in a performance. If the guest speaker in a performance stuttered or forgot a pat of their speech. If a composer’s sheet music dropped in the middle of composing a recital/performance/play. To sum it up, we pay attention to the little details in the things we see/witness, which makes us quick to judge.

Hope that helps!
