Read the fable. Using details from the text, evaluate the theme of the fable. Explain the theme in two to three sentences. "The

Dog and the Shadow" A Dog, crossing a bridge over a stream with a piece of fish in his mouth, saw his own shadow in the water and took it for that of another Dog, with a piece of meat double his own in size. He immediately let go of his own, and fiercely attacked the other Dog to get his larger piece from him. He thus lost both: that which he grasped at in the water, because it was a shadow; and his own, because the stream swept it away.

Answer:

<em>The theme of the Fable about the dog and the stream is all about greed. That the inability of one to contain his greed will lead to problems for the person in question. </em>

This could be seen in the dog losing the piece of fish in his mouth just because of seeing his shadow that projected an image of him having a bigger portion. <em>On the long run, being contented with the little the person has is far better than being greedy.</em>

The tiger _____ wings are striped. swallowtail’s swallowtails swallowtails’ swallowtail’
Vlad1618 [11]

The correct answer is d) swallowtail

Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly

Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly are aptly called because to their long, barn-swallow tails and yellow-and-black tiger stripes. Even the most unobservant spectator is likely to notice them since they are large and flashy.

Only the Monarch has a stronger hold over the collective American psyche. The leafy canopies of deciduous trees are where Tiger Swallowtail spend the most of their life.

The female Western Tigers lay their eggs on the leaves of bigleaf maple trees, and I've frequently observed them flying high in those trees. There, newly hatched caterpillars may feed and develop in a relatively secure habitat.

They emerge at night to devour the vegetation while they are sleeping during the day on a silken hammock fastened to a leaf.

Answer:

The narrator's description of the mother contrasted sharply with the revelation of the mother's secret, revealing her to be someone she presented herself not to be which surprises and shocks the reader, as the mother was practically described as being a saint.

Explanation:

In A Dead Woman's Secret the narrator described the mother as a rigid disciplinarian who instilled unshakable morals in her children, which resulted in the son becoming a magistrate without pity for the weak and the daughter becoming a nun.

This description creates an image of the mother as a virtuous woman in the reader's mind, as also assumed by her son and daughter.

So the surprise is real when the mother is revealed to be a woman who had an affair with a man that was not her husband, the behavior is not in keeping with who she was described to be.
