Then the girls had led her here, blindfolded still, through the corridors of Betsy Johnson's house and shut her in the cellar. I

t would be an hour before they came to get her, but then Rat Court would be all over and she would say what she had to say and go home. For tonight was the grand finale, the trial by fire. There really was no doubt now that she would get in. She could not think of anyone who had ever been invited into the high school sorority and failed to get through initiation time. But even so, her case would be quite different. She would see to that. She could not exactly say what had decided her revolt, but it definitely had something to do with Tracy and something to do with the heather birds. —"Initiation," Sylvia Plath Read this passage.

Answer:

According to the passage, the central conflict that occurred which had to do with Millicent and her confusion about joining the sorority led her to realize that she valued her freedom of movement, association,etc.

It also made her to realize that she wasn't really into the sorority because of her sense of individuality and the priceless friendship she had with Tracy which she could not sabotage for anything including the sorority.

She changes her mind about the Heather Birds and revolts, making the decision to speak her mind.

What is the overall tone of “The Lady of Shalott”? How does Tennyson convey this tone?
enyata [817]

The overall tone of the poem is melancholic and mysterious. Although the poem begins with descriptions of the beautiful surroundings, the sense of confinement and suppression creeps in through the language Tennyson uses:

Four gray walls, and four gray towers,

Overlook a space of flowers,

And the silent isle imbowers

The Lady of Shalott.

The lady is a prisoner in a tower, cursed to never to clearly see the actual beauty in the world except through reflections in her mirror. When the poet tells us that “She lives with little joy or fear,” we know that she has a placid and uneventful existence. The tone of the poem leads the reader to believe that a climax is imminent. The lady says, “I am half sick of shadows,” suggesting that she is tempted to leave the tower.

The poet uses an even tone while describing the beautiful city of Camelot. The imagery creates a mood of tranquility. The melancholy tone used to depict the imprisonment of the lady changes to a tone of urgency when the curse befalls the Lady. The atmosphere of doom becomes prevalent in the poem from the moment the lady sets eyes on the outside world.

How might a 21st Century version of "I Have a Dream" be similar or different from the<br> original?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

This question refers to Martin Luther King's speech <em>"I have a dream"</em> and the answer is open to the personal interpretation that each one has. Anyway, I will give you an answer from my point of view that you can use as an example or modify as you like, based on what you believe.

Explanation:

 This speech by Martin Luther King was recited in the year 1963, in which he sought equality between races for the future.

A current version of this speech would not be that different from the original.  

Although slavery no longer exists today, discrimination against people because of their skin color continues to exist.

The phrase <em>"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."</em> it could fit perfectly into a speech of this century.

However, we know that this struggle continues, we can see it in the protests that took place this year and the support of the vast majority of people, because we all have the same dream and we want this to change in the future.
