<em>2. Which of the following words does the author use to describe the objects and people in this poem?</em>

<em>The correct answer is A. slumped, pinched, pouting.</em>

  • <em>“A doll slumped behind the door”: a doll suddenly fell </em>
  • <em>“the pinched armor of a vanished cricket”: a worn cricket armor, that was never used again. In here “vanished” represents the frustration of a sport never played again, represents the good time they lived before.  </em>
  • <em>“before Liza appeared pouting from”: before Liza appeared showing an “I’m-about-to-cry” face. </em>

<em>3. The author uses a lot of words in this poem that have a negative connotation, yet she titles her poem "Daystar." Why?  </em>

<em>The correct answer is C. Because despite the subject's grueling work and sacrifices, she is a "star," or heroine, in the eyes of the author.  </em>

  • <em>Here the title Daystar refers to “A star during the day”, the heroine that saves the day of the human kind, by being a mother, by leaving all the things she really wanted behind. There is no time for thinking when duty calls for this heroin, this heroin that changes diapers. A heroin that changed her palace for “pinched armors” and “ and “floating maple leaves”. </em>

In at least one hundred words, analyze how Hawthorne develops the theme of the pervasiveness of sin in “Young Goodman Brown.”
Monica [59]
I read a book that refers states that one of the character of sin is PERVASIVENESS OF SIN.

"<span>Sin is not in some places, sin is in all places; sin is not in some people, sin is in all people; sin is not a part of some actions, sin is a part of all actions; sin is not a problem some of the time, sin is a problem all of the time. Sin is pervasive."
</span>
In the story, The Young Goodman Brown, people whom the character thought of as good and pious were shown as not so good nor pious. The character saw these upstanding citizens in a gathering that reveres the devil. Goodman Brown even saw his wife in the conversion ceremony. After that event, even though Goodman Brown is not sure he only dreamt it or it really happened in real life, he never trusted anyone again to simply be good. All he saw is the evil lurking in each person's soul.
