Answer (Part A)

The Correct answer for Part A is  C)

The Phoenix, according to The Phoenix Bird (A Short Story by Hans Christian Anderson 1850), only exerts its influence on those select few who are deemed worthy.

     

Answer (Part B)

The correct option here is C)

Culled from paragraph 3, it corroborates the position of the answer in part A which states that the Phoenix only visits the worthy.

Still, in Paragraph 3, we see that the Phoenix also reveals itself to the Hindoo Maid. A Hindoo refers to one who is an ardent follower of Hinduism.

Answer (Part 3)

The correct option is C)

Explantion:

Drawing from paragraph 3 and the answers already given, we see that the Phoenix's influence is felt by those who are religious. In paragraph 3, the Phoenix visits both the Pious Miner and the shows itself as a lotus leaf floating down the sacred waters of the Ganges in revelation to the Hindoo maid.

Answer (Part 4)

Metaphors give life to words in a very unique way. They help the readers experience the words and it's meaning emotionally.

Poetry is born from knowledge. According to the story, the phoenix was also born under the Tree of Knowledge. The writer in his genius uses poetry as a metaphor to describe the beauty of the Phoenix, and its origins in such a way that only a metaphor can communicate.

Cheers!

According to Camus in "The Myth of Sisyphus," "…fate...is a human matter which must be settled among men....At the subtle moment
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Both accepted fate to be ultimate in determining one's life course

Explanation:

In the Myth of Sisyphus, Sisyphus was eternally condemned by the gods to push a rock up a hill, only to have it fall down on him again. Meursault however, is a person who is accused of murder, sent to jail for over a year, and is then executed. What both these characters have come to realize is that they are forced to live in these situations created by fate, therefore they might as well enjoy or at least get used to them.

Meursault is forced to live in a cell without any pleasures, such as his cigarettes or the love of a woman. When this happens, Meursault recalls what his mother told him.

She said that one could get used to just about anything. When Meursault realizes and understands that this is just part of his punishment, he becomes indifferent, as he always does, and accepts his situation. Though Meursault had mentally accepted his situation, his body still suffers withdraw symptoms and sexual urges. Eventually however, his body got used to it as well. He passively defies punishment by accepting his situation and enjoying himself in jail. That is when Meursault's punishment isn't a punishment anymore. When Meursault is condemned to death, he does not act surprised, although he wishes he did not have to die. After a while he accepts that too. It did not matter to him that he is going to die, since he reasoned that he would have to face the same dilemma in a few years anyway.

How are Jem and Scout taught lesson/lessons by their father’s action? In chapter 10
alekssr [168]

Answer:

In Chapter 10, Scout is confused as she cannot understand why her father keeps his shooting skills a secret and never shoots anymore.

When having a conversation about it with Miss Maudie, she is told that Atticus does not think that his shooting talent should be a matter for pride, as he does not want to stand out from the rest of the people. That is why he never shoots, unless he really has to. Jem later comments that their father 'is acting gentlemanly' as he avoids killing. In their own way, Jem and Scout come to a conclusion that Atticus is a modest and humble man. They also learn that, regardless of one's talents and skills, one should always have both feet on the ground.
