Daisy is not actually the first member of the Miller Family that Winterbourne meets: he encounters Daisy’s younger brother, Rand

olph, in the hotel garden before Daisy is introduced. Explain why the author, Henry James, would decide to do this. How does Randolph influence Winterbourne’s (and the reader’s) initial impression of Daisy shortly thereafter? If Daisy symbolizes America, what does her brother symbolize? Why is Randolph important to the story overall? Your answer should be at least 250 words.

Answer:

By having Winterbourne first meet Randolph instead of Daisy, Henry James is able to establish some indirect inferences about Daisy. She has a younger brother, who is a bit impetuous, as the reader will find Daisy to be. He is a bit manipulative in that he approaches someone he has never met to ask a favor, "Will you give me a lump of sugar?" and with this he pushes his advantage and takes three cubes. This is also very much like his sister as she uses her feminine wiles to get Winterbourne to promise to take her to see the castle. So, in these things, James is able to introduce, in Randolph, some of the traits that the reader will later find in Daisy.

Ramdolph sybolizes the the patriotic fervor seen in many Americans, which the Europeans cannot seem to understand. In Randolph's eyes everything is better in America, 'I can't get any candy here—any American candy. American candy's the best candy," ""American men are the best." He says that even the moon is better in America, "You can't see anything here at night, except when there's a moon. In America there's always a moon!" This unrealistic view of his home country shows his unreserved love for America, but also tends to point towards the shortcomings of teh European countries and his dislike for them, in that they have nothing to compare to America, in Randolph's mind. This is, often, the way in which people see Americans, both proud and boastful, without a desire to understand other cultures.

1. Fast foods contain an insane amount of calories, lots of fat, and are pretty much high in everything you want your food to be low in like sodium. They have no nutritional value, whatsoever. For example, a McDonald's hamburger contains 250 calories, 469 mg of sodium, and 10 grams of fat. And this is for an everyday burger. A big mac contains 33 grams of fat, 563 calories, and 1,007 grams of sodium! In moderation, such fast food isn't that big of a deal, but having too much fast food you can develop diabetes or heart disease. The excessive amounts of sodium can lead to elevated blood pressure. The fats and trans fats can lead to clogged arteries. Again, I'm not saying eating one big mac can lead to such diseases. Just eat these foods in moderation.

2. A child should get from 1,000-1,800 calories a day (between the ages 2-18). For most children, that's about one big mac. Too many fats and calories can lead to obesity, atheroscerlosis, and clogged arteries. 

3. To help children with addiction to fast food, parents can have them d<span>rink water (thirst is often confused with hunger or food cravings), eat more protein, etc. Also, they can start slowly adding healthy aspects into their everyday diets. For example, gummy bears as dessert can be switched with various fruits. Instead of filling your tummy with artificial sugars, you get the natural sugars from fruits. Also, you can do simple things like blotting the oils off pizza with a napkin which cuts down on calories.

I hope this helps:) I spent a REALLY long time on this:)</span>

Why have stories of tragic heroes held our interest over the centuries?
Dimas [21]

Explanation:

Okay, I'm gonna use my strategy, you're welcome to re word it. Answer

Stories of tragic hero's have held our interest of the centuries for many reasons. Some of these reasons are, some of our hero's go MIA [missing in action] and we have no clue what happend, they saved others lives in return of their own, or the hero's weren't even trying to help. An example of this is [the last one] on August 6th, 1945, an atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, Japan. This bomb caused devastating radiation that still remains in Hiroshima, and it can still cause cancers and or birth defects. There is a story [A very true story] that says, "The morning the bomb was dropped, someone was standing right outside a bank on the steps. Nobody knows age, gender, nothing about this person. But the were immediately cremated becuae of the bomb, which protected the stone steps. This staircase is held in a museum in Japan to remind us of the past and our heros." I placed an article at the bottom of this page so you can read it.

Is literary device and poetic device same​
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Explanation:

Anything that impacts the way a poem or other written work looks or sounds is a type of poetic device, including devices that are also classified as literary or rhetorical devices. Consider your writing whether it's an essay, poem, or non-fiction article as a meal you're cooking.  That's what poetic devices do.
