Francine Prose thinks that American High Schools do not teach literary works the way they should. (1) She says that the choice of books is not related to the teen's world of today.  (2) She defends that teens can’t relate to the stories anymore because schools do not teach them the stories, instead, they focus on the author’s life or the background of the book. With that, (3) they leave amazing stories behind, stories which teens would love to hear and to learn about.

Jealousy has become a main ingredient of sucess .Critcally comment on this statement with regard to the poem 'Frog and the Night
artcher [175]
While the statement "Jealousy has become a main ingredient of success" may stand true in some cases, the poem "The Frog and the Nightingale" reminds the reader that this is not always the case. The Frog in the poem is jealous of the applause and attention that the Nightingale receives, and so he seeks to tear her down. He -quite literally- takes away her voice, and ultimately kills her. This does not only strip away her own success, but it does not build his up at all. Even after getting rid of the Nightingale, the Frog still cannot sing, and is not well-received by the other animals. Therefore, it is arguable that jealousy is a hinderance, rather than an ingredient, to success.

Answer:

One of the central themes of Romeo & Juliet is passion, which manifests equally in love and in violence. Both are powerful and conflicting forces throughout the story, but ultimately, it's love that conquers hate. To prove this point, compare the deaths of Romeo and Juliet to those of Mercutio and Tybalt.
