English

Wewaii [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Anna, the mother in "The Leap," is characterized by her courage. As a young woman, she was a circus performer, already an activity that requires strength of character to take part in. Her act involved performing high above the crowd, leaping from beams and trusting her husband to catch her—something that took phenomenal courage. The fact that this activity could have ended in Anna's death is made explicit when her husband is killed after lightning strikes the tent. Anna does not lose her courage when she loses her husband and her baby, however. Instead, she is able to continue, and have another baby, the narrator. When their house catches fire, Anna is courageous enough to endanger her own life by leaping to the window of the burning house to save her daughter. The narrator feels embarrassed for her mother that she is wearing only her underwear to do this, but Anna has no thought of this—she is thinking only of her daughter. Finally, as an older lady, Anna remains courageous. Now blind, she uses the skills she learned as a young woman to help her navigate the world unaided, even though it must be a frightening place without sight.

Which detail most strongly develops the theme of love in "The Raven"?
user100 [1]

Answer:

A. The speaker asks the raven if he will see Lenore again in heaven.

Explanation:

The Raven is a story that creates a contradictory atmosphere by the desire to remember and the desire to forget. It exposes the lover's loneliness, despair, melancholy, sadness shown through his own madness. All these feelings, fueled by the crow's words "never again".

The lover reveals the lack of his beloved, and the words of the raven "never again" culminate in the despair of the lover, whose anguish and sadness create in him a great madness, whose delusions are based on the loss of his beloved and the loneliness he suffers from knowing that he has lost his friends, his hopes and soon his visitor, the raven.

16 POINTS<br> What do men and women today think the other wants MOST in a relationship?
BigorU [14]

Women want to have a permanent emotional connection and bond that lasts a lifetime and expects for the man to fulfill their emotional and physical needs. While men want their physical needs to be satisfied and don’t want the women they love and are with to be stubborn, pessimistic and selfish; a woman who doesn’t take their advice at some moments and goes her own way is a huge downer for any man. Now, in reality women cannot think the same as a man and man cannot think the same as a women. That’s how God made us in complete perfection.

Women nowadays think men are only after a girl for their physical appearance and intimacy, it takes time for a woman looking for a relationship to trust a man so deeply that she’s willing to emotionally attach to him. However, it’s the case for most girls because some do their best to please the man to the extent of changing for them or pleasing them every way possible so they won’t leave. Unfortunately, some women are too dependent. Men on the other hand think women are also superficial or sometimes they think all women are the same and they treat them like so when they want to establish a relationship with her. However, being different is what causes them to make the man chase and want to establish a connection with her.

Also, place your own opinions in the prompt. It could help you a lot. Put instead of “I think” the words “a man/woman who is a gamer thinks...”

Hope this helps you sweetie
