Answer:

A. "No. My scissors are all sharp"

Explanation:

"Chrysanthemums" is a short story that features the lonely and boring life of Elisa Allen. She feels her life is frustrated and undervalued as all the things she dreamed of never happened and seems lost to her. Elisa has never been able to have a child and feels that her husband does not love her or even support her. Furthermore, she has no freedom and lives in an endless monotony, using gardening as the only way to stay distracted. Elisa is very impatient when a man insists on selling her scissors. She doesn't want new scissors as this is irrelevant to her life and all the frustrations she experiences. For this reason, she speaks impatiently, expressing all her frustration that she doesn't need scissors, as all the ones she has are already sharp.

What is a slogan for democracy?
leonid [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Here are some for you.

  • To make democracy work, we must be a nation of participants, not simply observers. One who does not vote has no right to complain.
  • A government of the people, by the people, and for the people shall not perish from the earth.
  • Democracy is a government where you can say what you think even if you don’t think.
  • Democracy is the recurrent suspicion that more than half of the people are right more than half of the time.

What does the phrase "Seeds of courage began to sprout" mean symbolically?
kykrilka [37]
Seeds begin as a very small object or device, just like our courage. We only need a tiny little seed of courage for it to grow, and once you give that little courage it continues to grow.
