Marrrta [24]3 years ago

Throughout The Giver, Lowry attempts to awaken each and every reader to the dangers that exist when people opt for conformity over individuality and for unexamined security over freedom. At one time in the past, the people who inhabited Jonas' community intended to create a perfect society. They thought that by protecting the citizens from making wrong choices (by having no choices), the community would be safe. But the utopian ideals went awry, and people became controlled and manipulated through social conditioning and language. Now, even the expression "love" is an empty ideal. For example, when Jonas asks his parents if they love him, his mother scolds him for using imprecise language. She says that "love" is "a very generalized word, so meaningless that it's become almost obsolete." To Jonas, however, love is a very real feeling.

Which statement correctly describes the characterization in this excerpt?
ladessa [460]

The statement that describes the characterization correctly is narrator's description characterizes Robin Hood as generous (option D).

<h3>What is characterization?</h3>

Characterization is a term to refer to the action of determining the particular attributes of someone or something to distinguish it from others. You may refer to:

  • Characters
  • Fonts
  • Web pages
  • Companies
  • Products

According to the above, it can be inferred that the sentence that describes the characterization correctly is option D because the author delves into the characteristics of Robin Hood so that he can be distinguished as generous.

Note: This question is incomplete because the fragment is missing. Here is the fragment:

IN MERRY ENGLAND in the time of old, when good King Henry the Second ruled the land, there lived within the green glades of Sherwood Forest, near Nottingham Town, a famous outlaw whose name was Robin Hood. No archer ever lived that could speed a gray goose shaft with such skill and cunning as his, nor were there ever such yeomen as the sevenscore merry men that roamed with him through the greenwood shades. Right merrily they dwelled within the depths of Sherwood Forest, suffering neither care nor want, but passing the time in merry games of archery or bouts of cudgel play, living upon the King's venison, washed down with draughts of ale of October brewing. Not only Robin himself but all the band were outlaws and dwelled apart from other men, yet they were beloved by the country people round about, for no one ever came to jolly Robin for help in time of need and went away again with an empty fist. And now I will tell how it came about that Robin Hood fell afoul of the law. When Robin was a youth of eighteen, stout of sinew and bold of heart, the Sheriff of Nottingham proclaimed a shooting match and offered a prize of a butt of ale to whosoever should shoot the best shaft in Nottinghamshire. "Now," quoth Robin, "will I go too, for fain would I draw a string for the bright eyes of my lass and a butt of good October brewing." So up he got and took his good stout yew bow and a score or more of broad clothyard arrows, and started off from Locksley Town through Sherwood Forest to Nottingham.

Read the excerpt from act 1, scene 2, of julius caesar. cassius. to every new protester; if you know that i do fawn on men and h
nexus9112 [7]

Shakespeare has used the word fawn rather than a synonym such as a flatter to describe his actions because fawn is more negative, suggesting manipulation of another for personal gain.

<h3>What is the use of synonym words? </h3>

The word fawn implies a young deer that represent immaturity. It means it could be used to express the pessimistic manipulative behavior of a person.

However, flatter is giving a positive perspective that arises from a praising scenario.

Thus, it fawn word is more appropriate to show how Cassius is <u>influencing</u> Brutus for his personal gain.
