3 0

Answer:

The setting of "the chrysanthemums" contributes to the solitary character of Elisa.

Explanation:

The setting of this story is a secluded place away from society, because of the winter mist. The place looks more like an isolated prison of everything and everyone, it is a true "closed pot". The description of the setting during the narrative gives to the reader a sense of claustrophobia and highlights the unique character of Elisa.

As this scene is the home of Elisa, she lives isolated from everyone, has no one to keep her company or to establish a friendship, so she feels lonely.

An informal writing style in nonfiction would contain
NikAS [45]
Informal is defined as relaxed, unofficial, or easygoing. If this is a multiple choice question, consider what choices are formal versus informal. <span>Anything that would fall under the category of "formal," which can also mean academic, rigid, proper, precise, or strict, can be ruled out as wrong answers. </span>Things that would be "formal" include tones, or the way that the story is written, that are very rigid and academic. In addition, a list of facts presented one after the other would be formal, not informal. Once you are done ruling these formal answers out, you will know what is informal.

Which statement best expresses the central idea of the text? A Jesse Owens used his platform after his win at the Olympics to br
son4ous [18]

Answer:

D. Jesse Owens didn’t allow the racial discrimination he faced at home or abroad to keep him from doing what he loved and succeeding at it.

Explanation:

In the informational essay <em>Jesse Owens </em>by Shelby Ostergaard, the whole essay details how persistent James Cleveland Owens was in his desire to achieve his dream. He did not let the racial discrimination and prejudice deter him from doing what he loves, despite what others may say or treat him.

The main idea of the whole essay seems to be that he did not allow the racial discrimination he faced at home and even at the college or even the treatment he met after winning the Olympics deter his aim. Hitler refused to shake his hand after his win, the racial discrimination back at home did not change even after winning a medal for his country, the country that seems to love him yet not care about him at all. But despite all these, he did not stop doing what he loved, running towards his goals, and which, in his own words, is one thing <em>"you could do by yourself and under your own power"</em>.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

The following question is based on your reading of “A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man” by James Joyce.
LenaWriter [7]

Father Dolan paddled Stephen because when he entered in the class, Stephen wasn't studying as his glasses were broken.

Answer: A

Explanation:

<u>"A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Boy": When Father Dolan Paddled Stephen</u>

The novel "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Boy" is based on the story of a boy named Stephen Dedalus, portraying his life and thoughts as an artist in search of his views in the 19th century inspite of the personal, religious and economical stress.

In one of the chapter of the novel, the incident has been explained when Stephen's teacher Father Dolan entered the classroom and saw Stephen not studying. Being strict he asked Stephen why he was not studying upon which Stephen explained that his glasses were broken and hence, he wouldn't be able to read.

But, Father Dolan took it as false excuse and started paddling badly on Stephen's hands as a lesson for other students for making false excuses which was a wrong deed.

Although, it was explained that Stephen was genuine was not making false excuse for the glasses.
