Oscar Wilde’s humor points out that many people are not who they appear to be, which is a critique on the emphasis placed on app

earance in society. Which line from The Importance of Being Earnest best makes this point? “From little Cecily, with her fondest love to her dear Uncle Jack.” “There is no objection, I admit, to an aunt being a small aunt . . .” “You are the most earnest-looking person I ever saw in my life.” “Well, my name is Ernest in town and Jack in the country . . .”

Among the given choices, the best answer is the line about an aunt being a small aunt. The first line about Ernest's cigarette case describes the fist major conflict in the play. It merely introduces Wilde's criticism. The ironic line about the earnest value is given as a light comedic attack on Wilde's criticism. The admission of Ernest's double life is used as a revelation in the play. The choice about Lady Bracknell stresses she appears as a close relative but she is really concerned about her family's reputation.

Find 3 places the author foreshadows the negative effects of the paw in “The Monkeys Paw”?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

3 places where the author foreshadows the negative effects of the paw in “The Monkeys Paw” are:

  • In the India
  • Maw and Meggins (where the White family's son worked)
  • The White family home

Explanation:

In these three places mentioned we can see the negative effects of the Monkey's Paw.

Remember that this Paw, granted three wishes but they came with a terrible tragedy or curse.

One of the places is India, when Sergeant Morris tells how he got the Monkey's Paw warning that his previous owner had died, and that's how he got it.

Another is Maw and Meggins, this is where the son of the White family has a horrible accident with the machinery and ends up dying, due to a wish requested by Mr. White.

Finally, we have the White family house. Where the wife forces Mr. White to request that his son come back to life. They quickly start to hear knocks on the door, and Mr. White knew that something bad was going to happen, that this was not his son but a monster.

Luckily, the monster finally disappears.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The words 'azure world' refers to the sky of the colour of ocean blue. The bird is circled or 'ring'd' by the blue sky. The passive action of 'stands' which rhymes with 'hands' and 'lands' creates an effect of stillness or inertness.4 Dec 2016
