b. <em>dead members of the community in their graves </em>, this is the correct option.

Thomay Gray, a XVIII English poet, is contemplating the situation: the source of inspiration of his poem ,"Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard". Through this elegy, he will lament death but the villagers' death mainly. "<em>The rude forefathers of the hamlet ......", </em>this line refers<em> </em>to<em> </em>the simple ancestors from the town, who are the poor villagers. These are buried in the churchyard: " <em>narrow</em> <em>cell forever laid.</em>..// ...<em>sleep</em>.."

The following options are wrong:

a. the townspeople asleep in their beds . The poet uses metaphorical language  ; he uses the word "sleep" to mean dead.

c. prisoners in the town jail . The poet uses the word "cells" metaphorically to mean graves. He also uses the word "rude" to mean simple.

d. townspeople who died in prison. Same explanation as above.

1. How do adults and children treat Auggie differently?
adell [148]

Adults and children treat Auggie differently because adults are more concerned with appearance, while children are more concerned with the fun and well-being that a person can provide.

Based on this, we can answer the other questions as follows:

  • Spatial metaphors help the plot show how Auggie needed real-world escapism.
  • He loved Star Wars because of the different-looking creatures. So he felt more comfortable.
  • The various points of view are beneficial because they make the story deeper and the viewer's knowledge more complete.
  • The theme "choose kind" shows that kindness is essential in all social relationships, regardless of the individual's appearance and situation.
  • Throughout the film, Auggie becomes more confident and has a greater acceptance of who he is.

<h3>Who is Auggie?</h3>

Auggie is a boy who has Treacher Collins syndrome, a disease that affects the growth of the bones in his face. This makes Auggie look unusual, beyond any standard of beauty. This appearance makes him suffer prejudice from many people, who do not know that he is a good and kind boy.
