Read the excerpt below and answer the question. I'm really getting quite fond of the big room, all but that horrid paper. Out of

one window I can see the garden, those mysterious deepshaded arbors, the riotous old-fashioned flowers, and bushes and gnarly trees. Out of another I get a lovely view of the bay and a little private wharf belonging to the estate. There is a beautiful shaded lane that runs down there from the house. I always fancy I see people walking in these numerous paths and arbors, but John has cautioned me not to give way to fancy in the least. He says that with my imaginative power and habit of story-making, a nervous weakness like mine is sure to lead to all manner of excited fancies, and that I ought to use my will and good sense to check the tendency. So I try. In at least one hundred words, describe the main symbols used in this excerpt.

The main symbols used in this excerpt are imagery, realism, and characterization. This excerpt depicts these qualities by eliciting the specific characteristics of the setting and the individuals. While describing the surrounding environment, the reader is able to create the image of the setting hence the reasoning of the imagery that is incorporated. It sounds as if the character John is a controlling person and that the narrator is being restrained from exhibiting certain personality traits that they possess. The realism that is being displayed in this excerpt is correlated to the era in which this was written, and depicts the ways the characters interact.

I have to write my own modern version of romeo and juliet. give me ideas plz
ololo11 [35]
Firstly, Juliet talks about fear very descriptively using a figure of speech called imagery. "..that almost freezes me to death..." is describing how much she fears about the dreaded events that are going to occur. Another example of describing fear is "A feeling of faint, cold fear pierces my veins..." is a sentence of how she is feeling the fear.

Secondly, she also talks about death, if she was tricked about the potion. "What if it's a poison that the Friar has cleverly given me to kill me..." is talking about the fear she is facing and also about concerns and curiosity of the sleeping potion if it is a poison to kill her. Another example is the sentences "...die strangled in my death..." is about the ways of dying. She also takes out a knife just in case the plan doesn't work and where she would kill herself because she would have to marry Paris instead of Romeo.

Lastly, Juliet describes the most in behaviors of hellish or evil acts or thoughts which comes to mind when she is thinking about the upcoming plan. "...at certain hours in the night, ghosts walk..." is talking about the death of Tybalt and about what happens when death comes. "...with the loathsome smells and shrieks like mandrakes torn out of the ground, which make living beings go mad when they hear them..." is a short paragraph like sentence which is describing horrors of evil thoughts that she will be facing if she fails this plan. It is also describing relatively similar to the images of hell.

In conclusion, Juliet's speech in line 15-60 of scene three of Romeo and Juliet describes many different subjects by type of figure of speech named imagery.

Which word in the sentence is the indirect object? Did you pick her a bunch of wildflowers?
Rus_ich [418]
The indirect object usually expressed the beneficiary of an action: for whom or for whose sake was the task performed. Here it's "her" - she is getting the flowers. The flowers are the direct object.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer: She was discrete, effective, and courageous in her work as a spy.

Explanation:

Harriet Tubman was very effective and courageous in her work as a spy. She was a nurse, who doubled as a spy. The spy worked led her to the Underground Railroad. This opportunity of working with the Underground Railroad granted Tubman intelligence to all the important rail and water routes in her territory.

She helped to free slaves who became loyal to her and were willing couriers in her spy work. At a time, she personally was at the forefront of some raids in South Carolina. Due to these involvements in spy work, she struggled financially and was eventually, denied pension.
