Answer:

B. As in most traditional plays, the plot of act 1 of Beyond the Horizon is designed to provide exposition and build up the tension of the play.

Explanation:

Option B is correct, as there is exposition of the play’s main themes;

a) The urge to follow one’s dreams

b) The complex father/son relation

c) Husband/wife relation

d) Love triangle of Robert Mayo, Andrew Mayo, and Ruth Atkins.

Act 1 also serves as an exposition to the main internal conflicts of the play among following one’s dreams, desires, and destiny and external conflict between father and son.

Option A is not correct because Act 1 of “Beyond the Horizon” is not just a short prologue, but rising action or exposition of the play.

Option C is not correct, as neither in most traditional plays nor in “Beyond the Horizon” is the main conflict brought to a head.

Option D is not correct because in “Beyond the Horizon” Act 1 is just exposition of the internal and external conflicts of the play - we are nowhere near the resolution of the conflicts.

Symbolism about verity in code name verity

omeli [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Planes are symbolic of Maddie’s abilities and the heights (metaphorical and literal) that she is able to reach when she is not held back by gender stereotypes. Maddie’s affinity with planes changes her life in many ways beginning with the chance to learn how to fix their engines and train for her pilot’s license through her connections with Dympna Wythenshawe. These experiences ensure that Maddie is able to do all sorts of things that women were not supposed to be involved with during the war including flying Queenie to France and becoming involved with the efforts of the French resistance.

Title: let América be America again

Zolol [24]

The author's choice of language in lines 80-86 shape the readers perception in the sense that:

The strong word choice by the author evokes strong feelings from readers, which shapes their perception that America needs to change drastically so that it can truly have freedom and equality.

The author's choice to end the poem this way is similar to a call to action in the sense that:

A call to action tells the audience what they should do. Likewise, Hughes tells readers that they must redeem America and its people, that they must make America what it was supposed to be.

"Let America be America Again" is a poem by Langston Hughes (1901-1967), American poet and social activist who was the leader of the <u>Harlem Renaissance movement.</u>
The last stanza of the poem, lines 80-86, uses very strong word choice. Words such as "ruin", "death", "stealth" and "lies", among others, convey the idea that America is rotten.
What the author wants is to evoke a strong feeling from readers. He wants them to want to change America.
In a sense, the final stanza is a call to action. The author invites the audience to do something to change those awful things about the country.
Hughes calls people to redeem America - its <u>lands, rivers, mountains, mines, plants</u>. By acting, people can make America the country of freedom and equality it should be.
