Airida [17]4 years ago
3 0

<span>In ancient times, the Rainbow Crow was the most beautiful creature, a bird with rainbow feathers which was also a splendid singer and enchanted all animals, good and bad. One night, Rainbow Crow met other animals in November, worried about the severity of the approaching winter. Rainbow Crow said that the Great Sky Spirit had invented fire to keep them warm. Although others doubted him, they were convinced by his conviction and confidence. When he volunteered to fly to the kingdom of the Great Sky Spirit and return with some fire, the animals cheered for their champion. Rainbow Crow flew until exhaustion. Just before giving up, he saw the lands of the Great Sky Spirit. After learning of the animals’ plight, the Spirit lit a torch from his fire and then gave it to Crow, warning him of the sacrifice required to carry it, which the Crow accepted bravely. The Crow held the torch in his beak getting burned and irritated by it, affecting his lungs and mouth. He managed to take off and return to Earth.  By the time he returned, his wings had been burned black, and he could not sing anymore because of the smoke in his lungs. Now he was a regular crow, but never regretted his decision and felt proud for helping his friends. It was worth it for him when he saw his friends getting warm in the cold winter. His black feathers and rough voice were now a symbol of his sacrifice.</span>

kaheart [24]

Answer:

Hi! Ill discuss the answers in the explanation section as there are more than one.

<u>Explanation:</u>

1- What disturbing news does Mr, Kraler bring on New Year's Day? What hint does this give about the ending of the play?

Mr.Kraler says he is being blackmailed by a fellow worker and the possible thief from that night. That gives a hint that they are most likely not going to last in their hiding place.

Making plans for the future, keeping good memories to look back at, and through human nature (everyone has a good side). She does this by reading and writing in her diary as seen in the book

Whats the difference about this battle and the one fought between Beowulf and Grendel?
earnstyle [38]

Solution:

Grendel is a monster that seems to embody evil. He is given no definite shape and very little personality. He seeks to destroy. He kills without mercy. He cannot be reasoned with. In a scene in which he kills thirty sleeping men, Grendel is described as 'insensible to pain and human sorrow.' He is a 'God-cursed brute'. Why would Grendel do all of this? There are a few possible reasons. Hrothgar, the king of Heorot Hall, which is the place Grendel keeps attacking, believes that Grendel is just evil by nature. Grendel is called a 'fiend out of hell' and a 'banished monster.' This is how most of the characters in the story understand Grendel. Monsters are destructive - it's just what they do. But there is a more sympathetic way to understand him.

Grendel has lived in the same place for a very, very long time. Hrothgar is new to the neighborhood. When Hrothgar built his mead hall, which is like a castle, he brought a lot of very noisy people to the area. They used the natural resources and disturbed Grendel, and so Grendel got mad (lines 86-90). Not only were the neighbors too noisy, but they sang songs that reminded Grendel about his status as an outcast. He is a 'banished monster' who is 'cursed,' which means that God has rejected him. And all day and night, Hrothgar's people sing about God (lines 90 - 114). One way to understand Grendel is as an outcast who feels harassed by Hrothgar and his people. No matter how Grendel's motives are explained, he poses a threat to Hrothgar and everyone else at Heorot Hall.

Beowulf is the hero of the story who comes to Heorot Hall to save Hrothgar and his people from the monster, Grendel, who has killed many men.
