Read the excerpt of John Muir's "Calypso Borealis" and answer the question.

English
1 answer:
Dafna1 [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: I know it is late for the answer but this is for people who visit this question later.

Explanation:

When reading paragraphs 3 and 4 Muir uses many different words to show his views on nature. He has a positive view towards nature as he uses words such as "beautiful Calypso" "Cried for joy" "simple purity" and "flower people."  Each of these words show a positive view towards nature as they contain words such as "beautiful" or "joy." He then says in paragraph 4 "It seems wonderful that so frail and lovely a plant has such power over human hearts." He is showing how such frail and lovely plants can have such a power over human feelings. He has many more views on nature and even shows in later paragraphs how other people might feel. He shares many of his views on nature throughout his story and makes it as perfect as can be.

Sanitation

With the rapid influx of people into New York City, sanitation would be a major issue for people living in New York City in the mid-to late 1800s. Proper sanitation is a need because without it disease is easily spread. Overpopulation creates a strain on any sanitation system, and in the mid to late 1800s, there was really no system for sanitation in New York City. All of the other options were not a major issue for people during this time period as they were not seen as necessities, only luxuries.

Paul Laurence Dunbar’s “We Wear the Mask” and “Sympathy” are poems that resound with suffering. What causes the pain of the peop
lubasha [3.4K]
In "We Wear the Mask," people suffer because life is painful and people hide their pain from the world. Dunbar writes the "clay is vile" beneath their feet, implying life on earth is hard and difficult. They do not change their situations because they cannot -- it is implied that to live is to suffer. In the poem these people appeal to Christ to save them. 

In "Sympathy," the bird suffers because it is caged. It sees the beauty of the world around it but it cannot participate in it. The bird cannot change its situation because it is literally imprisoned. The caged bird appeals in its pain to Heaven, hoping God will relive its suffering.

If a reader were to examine the vocabulary used in the novel, he<br> or she would be analyzing what?
Ahat [919]

Answer:

The answer is that the reader would be analyzing the <u>diction</u> of a novel.

Explanation:

Diction refers to the linguistic choices a writer makes to effectively convey an idea, a point of view, or tell a story. The utilization of diction is the careful selection of words to communicate a message or establish a particular voice or writing style. For example, flowy, figurative language creates colorful prose, while a more formal vocabulary with concise and direct language can help a main point to come across as clear and precise.    

Writers use diction in order to choose specific words and phrases depending on the outcome they’re trying to achieve. Diction can:  

  • Create a certain tone that supports purpose. The purpose of a piece of writing determines its diction. In literature and fiction writing, writers often use informal diction and figures of speech—words used for non-literal meanings, like similes and metaphors. If a scientist is publishing a paper on their research, however, the language will be technical, concise, and formal, written for a specific audience.
  • Support the setting. In fiction writing, the language an author uses supports the basic story elements, like setting. Diction helps establish when and where a story is set by using language native to that time and place, which is called colloquial diction. For example, a story set in New York City will have a different style of language compared to a story that takes place in London.
  • Establish a narrative voice and tone. A writer’s attitude towards the subject of a story comes through in the words used throughout the story. This helps establish tone and impacts a reader's emotional response. For instance, the tone of a horror novel will be very different to that of a romance novel.
  • Bring characters to life. A writer can tell a reader a lot about characters through their dialogue. The way a character uses diction reflects personal details like age and gender, background, social setting, and profession.
