Answer:

    Once you hear a story like that, you might question if people in the future would be able to go around with their noses poking out of their heads. Nikolai Gogol's novella “The Nose” is Gogol's message to the reader after reading it. Can people truly believe in the existence of angels in their backyards? In "A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, they perform the activity. Both of these authors produce stories that have elements of magical realism. "Impossible things actually do happen," they say. The characters may do this by suspending disbelief and making it feel like reality.

    Characters in Gogol's story “The Nose” speculate about the nose, which has gone missing, going about the town, in the same manner, every day. “ He started to cough slightly away from it, but the nose ignored him. Finally, Kovaloff raised his head and spoke. "Honorable sir," he murmured, stammering, "honorable sir." The nose said, "What do you want?" and turned around. ” It was interesting to see that Kovaloff did not appear shocked that the nose was communicating to him. Suspension of disbelief was utilized to make it appear as this occurred on a daily basis.

    In Gabriel Garcia Marquez's "A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings," the locals pay attention to the angel without doubting its legitimacy. “ She informed them, “He's an angel.” “It's probably the elderly guy was on his way to see the kid, but he got struck down by the rain.” She doesn't seem perturbed at all by the fact that an angel is standing just in front of her, instead, she continues to go forward. In order to better comprehend the characters' motivations, Marquez uses magical realism in this narrative.

    This magical realism example from both of these stories demonstrates how an author can make a story appear so realistic only by using a suspension of disbelief. We are surprised in "the nose" but frightened in "a Very Old Man With Enormous Wings" The tale came across as authentic due to both authors creating it to look as though it were happening. Both of the characters, especially father Gonzaga, questioned things a bit more than the other characters, such as Ivan Jakovlevitch. But, nonetheless, the stories have similar tones. Each of these stories has a more serious tone that makes it feel more real. It is due to both authors' willingness to utilize suspension of disbelief to get things as close to reality as possible.

Choose the word most similar in meaning to - sodden
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

1. saturated

2. adapt

3. volatility...mercurial

Explanation:

1. Sodden is a term used to denote that something is completely soaked, oversaturated with water (for example: carpet, clothes, backyard after massive rains, socks etc.) From that, we could infere that "saturated" has the closest meaning to "sodden".

2. From the context of the sentence, we can conclude that businesses need to properly answer to the change of economic circumstances. That basically means that they need to adjust, to adapt to the new situation.

3. Again, we use the context of the sentence to determine the right answer. Basically, the sentence is about a man whose mood changes reflected on the changes of his stock portfolio. So, we need to find the pair of words that denotes changes and inconsistencies, and the only adequate pair is "volatility...mercurial".

"There is no act more wretched than stealing" (Hosseini 18). Do you agree? Why or why not? If you could name one rule by which t
Anna11 [10]

Answer: I do not agree with that statement, stealing usually stems from the lack of something in someone’s life. So I would be able to reason why someone would do it. The one rule that I believe is important to live by is to be reliable. The people around you will benefit from you and hopefully you yourself would see many benefits from it. I don’t believe that a person can live only by one rule, I feel that there needs to be many rules we all live by so that we can get along with one another as smoothly as possible.
