THIS IS THE EXCERPT I FOUND

The novel Frankenstein begins and ends with a series of letters written by the explorer Robert Walton to his sister, Margaret Saville. Walton captains a ship embarking on a treacherous journey to the North Pole. During the voyage, Walton spots a man on an ice floe and rescues Victor Frankenstein who is near death. Frankenstein shares his story with Walton.

excerpt from Frankenstein by Mary Shelley

Letter, August 19th, 17—

This manuscript will doubtless afford you the greatest pleasure; but to me, who know him, and who hear it from his own lips—with what interest and sympathy shall I read it in some future day! Even now, as I commence my task, his full-toned voice swells in my ears; his lustrous eyes dwell on me with all their melancholy sweetness; I see his thin hand raised in animation, while the lineaments of his face are irradiated by the soul within. Strange and harrowing must be his story, frightful the storm which embraced the gallant vessel on its course and wrecked it—thus!

Answer:

A) Shelley creates suspense through Walton’s excitement.

Explanation:

The narrator of the novel is Robert Walton and his ship help save Victor and they both become good friends.

Walton is a seeker of new information that would cause great chaos if he could successfully investigate the Arctic but after Victor tells Walton his life's experience he reluctantly changes his mind and returns to England without fulfilling his mission.

In the book in chapter 9 Sir Francis Bacon wants revenge on the socs. When you want revenge, it is usually driven by a feeling of defeat or betrayal. But it’s not the best way to solve your problems, since it most of the time becomes a revenge cycle, it becomes a habit, or it could come back to you. In the rumble there is a lot of pain and sadness. The rumble was definitely not worth it, since mostly everyone ended up injured and nothing was gained in the process. No they did not get their revenge, they became devastated even when done, it made things worse for all that matters. He was definitely wrong because he lost everything and gained nothing.

Can I identify and discuss an author’s use of sensory images ?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Yes you can.

Creating sensory images is a strategy readers use to think more deeply about a text. It is when a reader combines their schema and the information in the text to create an image in their mind. This image can represent all of the five senses (visual, smell, taste, sound, touch or feeling).

Sensory imagery is any description that involves one or more of the five senses -- touch, sight, taste, smell and sound. Poetry that is rich in sensory detail helps the reader perfectly envision the scene the poet is describing.

Essentially, there are five types of imagery, each corresponding to one of our senses: visual, auditory, kinesthetic olfactory (smell), and gustatory(taste). The key to good imagery is engaging all five senses.
