<u>D. Personification</u>

Personification is a metaphor and a literary device that provides a thing, idea, abstract qualities, nature, emotions or event with human characteristics (such as dancing, talking, thinking, among others.). In the excerpt, the narrator uses personification in the sentence by giving "the words" the attribute of dancing (as if they were alive), which is a characteristic of humans: "He felt elated as he watched the words dance across the page"

What are two examples of indirect and direct characterization in “The Doll’s House” by Katherine Mansfield? Explain. PLEASE HELP
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

short story about the unfairness of social classicism, "The Doll's House", features as main characters two poor and socially disenfranchised little sisters, named Lil Kelvey and Else Kelvey. These girls are the daughters of Mrs. Kelvey, presumably a washer woman, and an unnamed father who is in prison.

As their foils, there are the secondary characters who are the owners of the dollhouse; three rich young ladies named Isabel, Lottie and Kezia Burnell. They, as well as the rest of the other children, would stay away from the Kelvey's, as they were considered to be bottom-feeders.

Other characters in the story that are mentioned include Mrs. Hay, who is the lady visitor who sends the doll house as a "thank you" gift to the Burnell sisters. There is "the carter" and "Pat", who carried the huge dollhouse inside, so we can assume that Pat was a servant.

Then we learn about Aunt Beryl, who is the haughty aunt of the three sisters, and who lives with the girls.

The rest are filler characters which interact with the main and secondary characters but some of them have a name. There is the girls' unnamed teacher who seems as classicist as the rest of the society of the school. There is also a Ms. Lecky, for instance, who is identified as the postmistress. Last, but not least, are the two chosen girls who were to be the firsts to see the dollhouse at the Burnell's house, Emmie Cole and Lena Logan. Lena is also the girl who laughs at Lil Kelvey asking her if she is going to be a servant when she grows up.

I need a 5 paragraph about jellyfish<br> plz help
Bumek [7]

Answer:

They are composed of three layers: an outer layer, called the epidermis; a middle layer made of a thick, elastic, jelly-like substance called mesoglea; and an inner layer, called the gastrodermis. An elementary nervous system, or nerve net, allows jellyfish to smell, detect light, and respond to other stimuli.

Jellyfish don't go after humans, but someone who swims up against or touches one — or even steps on a dead one — can be stung all the same. ... But stings from some types of jellyfish — such as the box jellyfish (also called sea wasp) — are very dangerous, and can even be deadly.

Jellyfish have tiny stinging cells in their tentacles to stun or paralyze their prey before they eat them. Inside their bell-shaped body is an opening that is its mouth. They eat and discard waste from this opening. ... Tentacles hang down from the smooth baglike body and sting their prey.

They are food for a number of marine animals such as large fish and turtles. Even humans eat jellyfish – yummy! Jellyfish also provide habitat for many juvenile fishes in areas where there are not many places to hide. They can also protect the small fish from being eaten by predators with their stinging cells.

After a while and looking at my watch's timer, I blurted out to the group: “48 minutes.” Now we learned that jellyfishes could survive that long out of sea water.
