Answer:

The setting gives more of a cautious and for me kind of an unemotional mood. Rainsford is looking at his surroundings wondering what he's going to do, but he really cant do anything Besides sleep.

Answer:  The mood is uneasy, perhaps ominous; there is a sense of foreboding.

Explanation: inclusion of details such as the "stealthy steps" outside his room, the "dark and silent" chateau, "black noiseless forms" moving in the pattern of shadow, and the "sallow moon"  create a mysterious scene which the protagonist, Rainsford, is sleepless, disturbed by the sounds and sights in his surroundings.

Waverly's relationship with her mother changed from the start to the end drastically. At first, Waverly would listen to her mother when her mother told her to do something ("Bite your tongue") and would take that as an educational moment. As time went on though, her mother would try to observe Waverly in case she needed her guidance. "My mother had a habit of standing over me while I plotted out my games" shows this. This is around where her relationship starts changing. "Ma, I can't practice when you're standing there like that" shows that Waverly is already getting agitated with her mother. Later, her mother takes her out to the market and shows off Waverly proudly. Waverly, however, does not take this as a compliment and their relationship stoops lower. "(Waverly) I wish you wouldn't do that, telling everybody I'm your daughter" turns into "(My mother's) eyes turned into black slits... Aii-ya! Stpuid girl!". This is too much for Waverly to take and she runs off into a dark alley. At this moment, they are both fuming at each other. However, we can theorize that even though their relationship isn't the best currently, the mother will come back for Waverly by the end due to the fact it cuts off at "I thought and imagined she wouldn't come back. Then two" gives us a clue as to what will happen. Waverly will end up being reunited with her mother and their relationship will likely mend. In conclusion, their relationship changed drastically from start to finish, quickly going downhill.

I misspelled stpuid because. Brainly.

Explain the following quote:
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Explanation:

This quotation connects to the theme because it represents the censorship that the government in the novel Fahrenheit 451 believes to be good. The quote is from Captain Beatty and it explains his point of view on censoring citizens. Captain Beatty believes that giving the civilians little knowledge of the world is best for the city and that if they were to gain knowledge, it would only create problems because the citizens would be able to question authority and make decisions that could cause harm to one another. This quote relates to the overall theme because it explains the force that Montag is working against and emphasizes his individuality because it describes the norm of society in believing that censorship yields the best results for a harmonic society. Montag is different because he questions society and begins to make his own decisions through gaining knowledge in books. He believes that in order to become happy, not only politically but in every aspect of life, he must explore the world and understand all sides of a question before he  can make his own decision. Montag's desire to go against Captain Beatty's rules demonstrates the theme because his inclination to understand the world drives his goal and fuels his rebellion against the law in the interest of living a better life. Captain Beatty's opinion on the censorship of citizens is important to the theme because his opinion is what drives Montag to pursue knowledge in books and acts as an opposing force in the way of Montag's pursuit of a happy life. The quote demonstrates Beatty's reasons behind censoring the citizens. He believes that if the citizens were to gain knowledge they would worry and it would cause problems within the city. The quote connects to the theme by representing the reasoning behind censorship and the motivating force driving Montag to escape government restriction in order to pursue knowledge and understand the world.

Graphic Analysis:

I chose the image of a baby to represent this quote from Fahrenheit 451 because baby's needs are taken care of and they have no need to worry about the world. Babies are innocent and oblivious to the world around them. Their minds are not developed and therefore they don't have the ability to understand what is occurring around them. The baby represents the quote because it symbolizes the happiness Captain Beatty is talking about. The Captain says in order to keep people happy, they must not be worried. The baby represents this because it has no need to worry and doesn't have the ability to question it's surroundings. Babies have comfortable lives because they have all their needs taken care of similar to the citizens in Fahrenheit 451 who have food, shelter, and fancy technology to keep them busy. The happy baby is symbolic of the happy citizens because it doesn't understand life and doesn't question anything. The baby represents the politically happy, brainwashed members of society because as long as the citizens are kept satisfied with fancy technology and other distracting material goods, they stay happy and oblivious to their censorship, just like how babies are kept satisfied with distracting items such as pacifiers and rattle toys to keep them distracted from their real issue.

Pride and Prejudice was originally titled First Impressions. Discuss how both these titles relate to main themes in the book. Fo
Tom [10]

Answer:

First Impressions, the original title of Jane Austen's novel, relates to the topic of prejudice, because the main characters of the story are deceived by their first impressions.

Elizabeth's first impression of Darcy is terrible. During the ball, she hears him saying (about her) "She is tolerable, but not beautiful enough to tempt me". After this, Lizzie's opinion of Darcy was dreadful, and even more when Wickham tells her that Darcy was responsible of his misfortunes.  Towards the ending of the book, we can see that Elizabeth and Darcy start developing and leave behind their pride and prejudice, and by the end of the story they end up getting married. On the other hand, Elizabeth has a very good first impression of Wickham, but he ends up taking advantage of her sister and playing with her own feelings.

The title "Pride and Prejudice" is a title that Jane Austen is adviced to give to her book, because her previous book was "Sense and Sensibility" and it was very successful, so using a similar structure on this book could be a good way to advertise it.

Pride and prejudice are the two main traits of the characters of Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy. Elizabeth is very prejudiced towards Darcy, especially after that first ball in which he barely dances and she hears him saying what was stated above. When Wickham tells her that Darcy didn't allow him to inherit the properties that Darcy's father promised him, she is quick to believe him (although she has no idea of who this Wickham is). When Elizabeth talks about Wickham with Darcy, the latter says that Wickham is <u><em>"blessed with such happy manners as may ensure his making friends, whether he may be equally capable of retaining them is less certain" </em></u>. As the story develops, we learn that Wickham is a very negative character that took advantage of Georgiana Darcy (Darcy's sixteen year old sister) and then he does the same with Lydia Bennet, but Darcy saves her by giving them some money so that they could get married.

Darcy needs to face his pride in order to finally propose to Elizabeth. He belongs to a different sphere than Lizzie, he is very rich in comparison to her and his family expects him to marry someone of the same class. Moreover, his attitudes were openly questioned by Elizabeth more than once. By the time he takes courage and proposes, Elizabeth says no. At that time, women wouldn't give their opinions so freely, and they wouldn't say no to a man's proposal. Elizabeth says no to Mr. Collins proposal and to the first proposal by Mr. Darcy.  Marriage was a (if not "the") safest place for a woman. But Elizabeth standards were different than those of other women, she believed that love was more important than just marrying for stability.

Once Elizabeth learns that Darcy saved her sister and her family's reputation, and he fixes the situation with Jane and Mr. Bingley; Her prejudice and pride fade completly, because she learns the truth about Darcy's character. This change in her attitude is what makes her say "yes" to the second proposal by Mr. Darcy.
