In most stories, the hero is the most common person you can imagine, but then some mentor tells him or her that he or she is special. Or in some other cases, an accident, incident or experiment changes them into a stronger being.
Answer:
"Most bewildering," "small white bulb"
Explanation:
I found the answer by using answer elimination. For "most bewildering," we can see that Muir is questioning the flower and looking at it carefully. This is a step of the scientific method, asking questions and making observations.
As for "bed of yellow mosses," I found this to be written in a more poetic way. This is a metaphor, saying the moss is a 'bed of moss.' There is definitely nothing scientific about that observation.
"Small white bulb" is descriptive. There is nothing fancy or exciting about that phrase, it is simply describing it the way it is, much as a scientist would. It sounds to me like a passage from a book on botany.
When I read "utmost simple purity," I found this as a somewhat religious observation. If not, it would surely be a poetic attempt, to romanticize the flower.
"Cried for joy" would not be a scientific observation. Never have I heard a researcher state that they cried for joy upon realizing that the effects of too much caffeine cause hallucinations. This would be a distraction from the study and has no place except in a seperate interview.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
We can see that Poe foretells that the prince will not escape death forever. Three examples of this can be seen at:
In the description of the rooms, we can see that the last one, the seventh room, is decorated in black and has the windows stained with blood. This environment has elements that remind us of death and foreshadow that it will arrive at any moment.
Furthermore, when we are introduced to the appearance of people who are caught by the plague, we know that death is coming and that it will not be long.
Lastly, when the sequence of chambers from east to west, it symbolizes the end. This end is a harbinger of death.
