What makes something tragic? what makes that different than others that are just sad

English
1 answer:
const2013 [10]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Tragedy is a genre of story in which a hero is brought down by his/her own flaws, usually by ordinary human flaws – flaws like greed, over-ambition, or even an excess of love, honor, or loyalty. The hero is successful, respected, and happy. But he has some tragic flaw that will ultimately cause his downfall. Tragedy is something unexpected that happens, and in the end something bad happens to a character that shocks, and saddens us.

This is different than some stories that are just sad, because a tragedy is something bad unexpected. Meanwhile something sad happens because of how the plot is happening. This means you can tell it is angst and was going to happen either way.

exis [7]

Answer:

C.) The line breaks make sure that the reader slows down as they read

Explanation:

The poem has these breaks in the lines to serve as a way for the reader to see the emphasize on the meaning behind the words.

"What your mother tells you

now

in time

you will come to know",

The bolded words are read slower and the meaning is emphasized on them compared to if the poem were written as, "What your mother tells you now in time you will come to know." Thus these breaks trigger the reader to slow down and fathom the meaning of the words more.

Determine whether the italicized verb in the sentence below is an action verb or a linking verb. The weather today looks cold an
Paha777 [63]
The verb "looks" would be in this case a linking verb, since it is helping the reader understand the point of view of the observer. The weather itself is of course not "looking" anywhere.
