English
1 answer:
stepan [7]3 years ago

Answer:

  • because the sound of a piano over a stretch of water had always seemed beautiful to Dexter he lay perfectly quiet and listened
  • It was a mood of intense appreciation, a sense that, for once, he was magnificently attune to life and that everything about him was radiating a brightness and a glamour he might never know again.

Explanation:

In literature anticipation is considered as a literary device implies the narrator or writer provides the audience clues about what is going to happen next in a story, without narrating the events that lead to that point. In the case of the short story "Winter Dreams" written by the American writer F. Scott Fitzgerald, anticipation occurs as the main character called Dexter "lay perfectly quiet and listened", this makes the reader increase its interest as the atmosphere that is quiet suggest the reader something else is going to happen. On the other hand, the narrator also introduces anticipation by mentioning "a brightness and a glamour he might never know again", because this shows the life of Dexter is going to change abruptly and he will be unable to be in the way he is while listening to the piano, although the reader does not know why this is going to happen. Thus, options B and E build anticipation because they suggest something else will happen with Dexter and his life is going to change, even though the reason why it will change is not explained immediately, this means the narrator provides clues on how the story will evolve but does not tell the events that will lead to that point which is what anticipation is about.

Which theme in The Hobbit is best reflected when Gandalf again states, in the camp of men and
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Most people have more bravery and wisdom in them than they know.

Explanation:

Bilbo is a hobbit, which means he is a small creature without much influence in the universe created by Tolkien, in his book "Hobbit". Bilbo is not influential, not even in his own society, however, he participates in a great adventure to protect and help all the beings that exist in this universe, showing himself to be a being of great courage and wisdom, even though his appearance and reputation say the opposite.

These qualities are not recognized in Bilbo, even by himself, but Gandalf, a powerful and influential wizard, declares, in the field of men and elves, that there is more to Bilbo than meets the eye, highlighting the theme "most people have more courage and wisdom of what they know. "
