Answer: C. "Leave my loneliness unbroken! quit the bust above my door! Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!"

Explanation:

In <em>The Raven</em>, the speaker is dealing with a recent death of Lenore, a woman he loved. One night, he is visited by an unusual guest, the raven that can speak. The raven, however, only utters one word - <em>"Nevemore".</em>

In this excerpt, the speaker is deeply distraught and orders the raven to leave. He wants the bird to return to the storm and leave its perch on the bust of Pallas above his door. The speaker, moreover, wants to be alone and to deal with his loss all by himself. He does not need companion at this point, especially not this supernatural creature that responds to every question with the same, not so promising word.

An author trying to generate particular feelings would use a words blank
pochemuha

An author trying to generate particular feelings would use connotation

Connotations give feelings that surpass the literal meanings that they represent. It is a contrast to the word "denotation" that represents the literary idea or meaning of a word.

Therefore, an author can generate a particular feeling in his audience or readers by employing the use of connotations.

Other options do not represent the generation of certain feelings in audience

What ultimately happened as a result of the drive for equality"Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut
Inga [223]

Answer:

What happened as a result of the drive for equality in "Harrison Bergeron" is that society became both average and unfair.

Explanation:

"Harrison Bergeron" is a short story by author Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. Set In the year of 2081, when the American government is able to provide total equality. However, this equality comes in a strange and most unfair manner. People are not allowed to be themselves so that others - less beautiful, intelligent or capable - do not feel bad about their disadvantages. The Handicapper General forces those who have advantages to be handicapped. Harrison Bergeron, a fourteen-year-old, who has astonishing looks and intelligence is forced to wear all sorts of handicappers to make him average like everyone else - weights, teeth caps, earphones, heavy spectacles, a red rubber ball on his nose, some head gear.

<u>As we can see, the drive for equality took a bad and sudden turn. In Harrison's society, no one is truly free. People cannot voice their opinions or express their true selves in any way. They suffer, of course, but they have grown used to and afraid of it at the same time. The government will punish those who dare to be spectacular (Harrison is shot and killed by the Handicapper General when he removes his handicaps on TV). Society must remain average to be equal, even if this equality is unfair.</u>

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.
