English
1 answer:
Ivanshal [37]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Matilda compared her daddy to Shakespeare in a way that <em>he was the opposite of him.</em> His dad always said <em>having a good strong hair meant having a good strong brain underneath,</em> but Shakespeare was bald which meant <em>his dad didn't have a good strong brain underneath.</em>

Explanation:

The question above refers to the Chapter entitled, "The Platinum-Blond Man" of the Matilda book.

At this time, Matilda thought that his father deserved a <em>"severe form of punishment" </em>after she was called a<em> cheat </em>and a <em>liar </em>by his father just because she was able to answer an arithmetic problem. Her revenge happened after they had a conversation about his dad's hair. She compared it <em>sarcastically </em>to that of Shakespeare.

What connection does the author make between the prices and demand for tulip
nevsk [136]

Answer: A Tulip prices increased as the demand increased.

Explanation:

In the article titled, <em>Inflation and Bubbles and Tulips</em>, the author attempted to explain how an Economic Bubble can develop when people overvalue a commodity.

The example used was the Tulip bubble of the 16th century in the Netherlands. Tulips were a new and interesting thing to the Dutch so the demand for them was high which also led to a higher price. The Tulips were then attacked by a virus which made them more aesthetically pleasing which led to the demand for Tulips rising even more.

This increased demand made Tulips even more scarce and so the prices kept rising with people trying to get their hands on more so that they could sell at a higher price.

In the Inferno, Dante uses
xxMikexx [17]

Answer: Dante uses <u>allusion</u> to associate himself with classical writers and thinkers.

Explanation:

  • Terza rima is a rhyming scheme that Dante often used, but not as a means to associate himself with other people.
  • Contrapasso is a term that refers to the punishment of souls.
  • Anaphora is replacement of a particular word in a sentence to avoid repetition.
  • Finally, allusion happens when we refer to other people/objects, without directly mentioning them. This is what Dante accomplishes in <em>Inferno</em>, the first part of his epic poem from the 14th century, Divine Comedy. For example, Dante refers to real people such as Brutus and Cassius, who ended up in Satan's mouth because of their betrayal.
