English

Liula [17]3 years ago

Answer:

In paragraph 23 of Ray Bradbury's All Summer in a Day, Margot is created as a nine-year-old protagonist who relocates from Earth to Venus.

On this occasion (Page 23 that is,) she is featured in an emotional state wherein she misses her home planet and the intensity of the Sun she felt.

She expresses these memories and positive feelings using metaphorical statements such as the sun being a flower that blooms for only an hour every seven years on Venus.

In contrast to Earth, the sun was available for about 7 hours per day, every day.

Explanation:

The text from which the question is excerpted is a science fiction genre written in 1950.

Because Venus is about 67 million miles from the sun (that is, seventy-two percent of the distance from Earth to the sun, there is a great difference in the amount of daylight received on Earth in contrast to that which is received on Venus.

For Margot, she was very homesick. She imagined that the kids her age at Venus had even forgotten how the sun looked like given that it appeared about seven years ago for just one hour.

The above is the picture the writer tries to capture in the story.

If you wanted to leave the community, where would you go to start the process in the giver. Plz answer this
nignag [31]

Answer:

If I wanted to leave the community I would ask to be released from it and if it was denied I would flee by the river.

Explanation:

"The Giver" presents a utopian society that, in an attempt to end any inequality in society, decides to monitor and make all the choices of society, including in relation to its professions and relationships. In chapter 6 of this book, we can see that it is possible to leave this community, if an individual wants to. In this chapter, we learn that there were cases of people who did not like the profession to which they were assigned and fled the community by crossing a river, but in this same chapter, we are informed that it is possible to lose a license to leave the community, if the individual does not want to do what you've been told.
