This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read Harrison Bergeron, by Kurt Vonnegut

According to this society, what are the things that make george and his son and people like the ballerinas so dangerous? Cite textual evidence to support your inference.

Answer:

Intelligence, beauty, skills, and any personal trait that could make others feel jealous are seen as dangerous in this dystopian society.

Explanation:

We soon learn that people with above-average intelligence, like George and his son, are forced to wear a radio that sends "sharp noise to keep people like George from taking unfair advantage of their brains." This seems to be a strategy aimed to guarantee an equal society. In the same way, ballerinas have their beauty hidden under "sashweights and bags of birdshot" as well as masks in their faces to avoid other´s feeling ugly in comparison.

What is Mrs. Dudley's waming to the guests regarding her leaving the property at night?
BigorU [14]

Ultimately, Hill House symbolizes the mysteries of the human mind, whether healthy or ”not sane,” as well as the terror the inherent strangeness of the mind can inspire. Just like the mind, Hill House is intricate, complex, and seemingly unknowable.

<h3>How does Dr Montague describe Hill House?</h3>
  • Doctor Montague starts out by outlining the background of Hill House.
  • In the same way that some places in the earth are sacred or holy, some are fundamentally bad and evil, he claims that "the concept of certain houses as filthy or banned" is an old one.
  • The Hill House has been uninhabitable for more than twenty years and may have been "evil from the start."
  • Doctor Montague views the home as unwell or "deranged," rather than malevolent.
  • A year ago, a former renter told Doctor Montague about the property.
  • After looking into it, he discovered that no one who had rented it had lasted for more than a few days.
  • Montague acknowledges that even arranging a short lease was difficult for him personally.

7) b. If they get into trouble, she wouldn't be able to hear them "in the night"

8) c.  "It's awful, and I don't want to stay…get away from here, get away"

9) c. Cousin

10) a. "Hill House gave its guests a false sense of comfort and security"

I would like to know what a descriptive quote means? My teacher told me to include one for each character in the characters list
Mariana [72]
A descriptive quote is simply a quote that throughly describes and gives details about a subject or in this case a character.

Without more information on your assignment, my best understanding is that your teacher is looking for a quote from whatever literary piece you are reading that best describes each of the characters.

den301095 [7]

Answer:

Most of the scholars agree that Shakespeare wrote <u>37 </u>plays with the possibility that several more were written.

Explanation:

<u>His plays can be divided into:</u>

  1. Historical plays
  2. Comedies
  3. Tragedies
  4. Romance plays

First Folio was the book published after the death of <em>William Shakepspeare</em> and it contains 36 plays.

<u>When we talk about Shakespeare, it is hard to say for sure how many plays were written because the entire history of his works is questionable.</u>
