What are two quotes from Night by Elie Wiesel and what do they mean?<br>chapters 1 and 2
love history [14]

Answer:

Quote 1: Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed. Never shall I forget that smoke. Never shall I forget the little faces of the children, whose bodies I saw turned into wreaths of smoke beneath a silent blue sky.

Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever.

Never shall I forget that nocturnal silence which deprived me, for all eternity, of the desire to live. Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust. Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never.

Quote 2

“Where is God? Where is He?” someone behind me asked. ..

For more than half an hour [the child in the noose] stayed there, struggling between life and death, dying in slow agony under our eyes. And we had to look him full in the face. He was still alive when I passed in front of him. His tongue was still red, his eyes were not yet glazed.

Behind me, I heard the same man asking:

“Where is God now?”

And I heard a voice within me answer him:

“Where is He? Here He is—He is hanging here on this gallows. . . .”

Give me a topic sentence of Brown Girl Dreaming.
forsale [732]

Answer:

Jacqueline Woodson tells her memoir “Brown Girl Dreaming” from the first-person, limited-omniscient, present-tense point of view of herself as a child. She does this for several reasons. First and foremost, the memoir being told is Jacqueline’s, and there is no better person to tell her childhood story than herself. Second, this allows Jacqueline to communicate intimate thoughts, ideas, and feelings with the reader directly, allowing them to see and feel things as she did. It also allows readers a sort of intimacy as if the story was being told by one friend to another. The limited-omniscient aspect lends itself to Jacqueline telling the story as her child-self in present-tense, and not knowing everything going on in the world around her, but having vague ideas or inclinations about events and circumstances beyond her control.

Over the course of the play, does the character of Alice change? In 75 to 100 words, explain whether you believe Alice changes b
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

I believe that Alice changes over the course of the play because at the beginning of the story Alice is curious, childish, and imaginative and at the end of the story she is brave, fearless, has a good understanding of everything, and is more involved with Wonderland because she is trying to help people out. I think this because throughout the story, Alice experiences frequent physical changes. She's constantly shrinking and growing, she struggles to maintain a comfortable size. She begins to manage situations and handle them as an adult would, she learns to stand up to authority in order to get taken seriously, such as the Queen of Hearts.

Explanation:

Alice matures over the course of the play. For instance, at the beginning of the play she is shown as a bright and timid girl. When she first meets the Red Queen, she is polite and pays attention to the queen. Although the queen talks nonsense about the advantages of not having a name, Alice doesn’t challenge her:

RED QUEEN: It’s time for you to answer now; open your mouth a little wider when you speak, and always say, “Your Majesty.” I suppose you don’t want to lose your name?

ALICE: No, indeed.

When Alice meets the Red Queen at the end of the play, she doesn’t stand for the queen’s nonsense. Alice is not afraid to say what she is thinking:

ALICE: Please, would you tell me—

RED QUEEN: Speak when you’re spoken to.

ALICE: But if everybody obeyed that rule, and if you only spoke when you were spoken to, and the other person always waited for you to begin, you see nobody would ever say anything, so that—

RED QUEEN: Preposterous.

ALICE: I only said “if.”

Alice’s response to the Red Queen shows that she becomes more confident over the course of the story.

Water freezes at 0 Celsius (change it to negative)????
Tom [10]

'Water freezes at 0 degrees C' is a universal truth, meaning that it is a statement accepted as a general truth.

In making this statement negative, we could say that:

<em>Water doesn't freeze at 100 degrees C. Water freezes at 0 degrees C.</em>

Or, the verb 'freezes' could be replaced by the negative form of its antonym which is 'boils'.

<em>Water doesn't boil at 0 degrees C. Water boils at 100 degrees C.</em>
