Answer:

C. reality : delusion

Explanation:

In order to complete the analogy, we must first discover what the relationship between the two given words is.

- A fact is something that is absolutely true, backed by evidence

- A fiction is something that is made up, so it's not necessarily true

Ah, now we see: these two words are <em>antonyms</em>; in other words, they're opposites of each other, so we want to find a pair that is also made up of antonyms.

A: unreal : delusion

- unreal: this means something that isn't reality

- delusion: this is a false belief

These two words aren't really synonyms, but they're not antonyms, either, so eliminate.

B: disbelief : delusion

- disbelief: not believing something

- delusion: false belief

There isn't a really clear relationship between these two words, but we can definitely say that they're not antonyms, either, so eliminate.

C: reality : delusion

- reality: something that is true

- delusion: false belief

Ah, now we can see that these two are quite opposite, so this is the answer.

D: fantasy : delusion

- fantasy: a made-up, unreal world

- delusion: false belief

These aren't opposites either, so eliminate.

The answer is thus C.

Explain the use of narrative structure in "A Jury of Her Peers," focusing particularly on the notion of "resolution." How does t

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

"A Jury of Her Peers'' was written by Susan Glaspell. She employs a narrative tone to describe the story. The resolution forms part of the story and it's where the story ends. It is at this point that conflicts are resolved and the story comes to an end. The plot was considered as a feminist literature because two female characters were trying to come up with a solution to a mystery. Mrs Hale and Mrs Peters came up with the conclusion that Mrs Wright killed her husband, and her actions are justified. The circumstances behind the death of John Wright leaves the townsmen in a state of confusion as to what could have led to his death. Mrs Wright killed her husband because she was physically abused by her. Mrs Hale and Mrs Peters hide the evidence against her because they understand how it feels to be humiliated and oppressed by a man. In the end, Mrs Wright is granted freedom.
