AveGali [126]

Chisholm´s use of repetition draws attention to the heart of the matter she wants to point out ; discrimination for women.Discrimination is a word she repeats as she wants to show that women were considered inferior for certains posts, so inferior that the fact that they are able to become representatives in Congress needs a celebration or a great display.She is ironic in the sense that she knows women understand what she is talking about , but still uses repetition to be emphatic and to show frustration at so many years of not being recognized...." calculated system of prejudice..."..I am not stranger to prejudice.."She is persuasive because by mentioning women and their inferiority suffered for so long , which was created for them from a men´s world, she is expressing change is at hand.

Are archetypal characters still relevant to today's society? Do they accurately represent American culture?

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

1) Yes, archetyoal characters are still relevant in today's society.

2) Yes, archetypal characters still accurately represent American culture.

Explanation:

An archetypal character is a character that exhibits or depicts universally recognised and accepted traits or qualities. Archetypal characters are epitomes or perfect examples of an idea, concept, person or thing.

The main actor/actress in a movie or drama script is often depicted as either a hero or a villain.

The Hero for example, starts out as a normal, everyday person who goes through and overcomes a very difficult and often painful situation/tragedy

Heroes/Villians are examples of archetypal characters because they are perfect examples of charcyters human beings can relate with in their everyday life.

Also, fathers/mothers are also examples of archetypal characters they convey or depict the image of the universally accepted concept of parenting.

So, YES, archetypal are still very relevant to today's cultures and society as people can still relate with and understand them.

2) The American culture today is hinged on icons and role models that people look up to in various fields of endeavours.

There are fashion icons, music icons, sports icons, movie icons, political icons etc in American culture today.

The word 'Icon' itself is an example of an archetype as it conveys the image of a successful person in his/her chosen field with sterling qualities that are worthy of emulation.

Therefore, archetypal characters do still accurately represent American culture.

Anika [276]

The correct answer to the first question (what can be inferred by contrasting the ideas in the first two stanzas of the poem to the last stanza) is D) The awful tempest rages all night long and terrifies the speaker of the poem.

The first two stanzas, through adjectives like "awful" and "gaunt", expressions like "spectre's cloak" and "creatures", and verbs like "chuckled", "whistled" and "gnashed", convey that the tempest was terrifying, which can be understood by the speaker's word choice when telling the reader about it.

The last stanza shows that the storm lasted all night when the speaker says "morning lit", and, by expressing her relief and how peaceful she thought everything was after the storm had passed, the speaker intensifies the idea that it had been a terrifying storm. So, the correct answer to this question would be D.

Answer A is not correct because nothing indicates that the speaker would be fascinated by the storm, rather scared. Answer B is not correct because the tempest is not saddened by the morning sun, on the contrary, the speaker shows his relief and peace almost with happiness, which can be inferred by the presence of an exclamation mark in the last verse. Answer C is not correct because the tempest is not saddened at first, it is scary.

The correct answer to the second question (what device did Dickinson employ to create the effect in lines 1 and 2) is C) Paradox.

A paradox is a statement that seems to be contradictory in logic, that seems to not be true, but that also is not false. The speaker creates an absurd effect by using a paradox to describe the tempest when she suggests a storm with gaunt and few clouds. So, the correct answer to this question would be C.

Answer A isn't correct, the device used by Dickinson couldn't be an hyperbole because that figure of speech would cause the contrary effect; the storm would be shown like something grandiose and extremely terrifying, with an exaggerated connotation. Answer B isn't correct because there is no presence of an onomatopoeia in both lines since there is no written sound. Answer D isn't correct because the storm is not personified with human characteristics, rather the clouds are "gaunt", which is an adjective that can refer to objects.

The correct answer to the third question (why did Dickinson most likely use the phrase "black, as of a spectre's cloak" in the first stanza) is D) to create a feeling of darkness and gloom.

The black spectre's cloak mentioned is an image that describes how the gaunt and few clouds created a dark plain sky that covered the earth and the heaven, leaving everything dark and gloomy. That was the storm's appearance. Therefore, the correct answer to this question would be D.

Answer A is not correct because, although the storm could have been a dream, nothing in the poem indicates that it was; on the contrary, the description of the storm going away in the morning indicates that it wasn't a bad dream, but something real. Answer B is not correct because the black cloak mentioned doesn't transmit a sensation of coldness but of darkness. Answer C is not correct because the poem isn't comic, not even slightly, and this expression makes it even darker.

The correct answer to the last question (how does the poet convey the seriousness of the storm) is A) She uses personification to emphasize the impact of the storm.

When the poet describes the storm as a "monster" whose "faded eyes turned slowly to his native coast", she is using personification to emphasize how serious the storm was, as if it were like a monster with eyes that can turn, and with power and strength. Hence, the correct answer to this question is A.

Answer B isn't correct because neither does the poet use paradoxes in the last stanza nor does she show the storm as majestic. Answer C isn't correct because she doesn't use informal language and the storm seems to have been very serious and strong, and not the opposite. Answer D isn't correct because she doesn't show the changes that are coming through metaphors, the poet actually shows only the peaceful feeling that was left when the storm was gone.

What is your impression of the narrator, Ponyboy? Give evidence from the story to back up what you think of him. Is he a good pe

stiks02 [169]

Ponyboy seems to be an outsider. He says that he is a Greaser, but then he also says that he "loned it" (3). Even though he feels as though he belongs to the Greasers, he shows that he is not like other Greasers. He says that he "digs movies and books" (3). Ponyboy likes them because he puts himself into the story with the characters to experience it, not just as mind-numbing entertainment. Ponyboy seems to be a good person. He has a big heart and seems to care for others. He doesn't look at a person and label them in the story. Throughout he begins to notice that people are more than just a Soc or just a Greaser. It begins when he meets Cherry and Marcia at the movies. After Bob's death, Ponyboy starts to see Randy as more than just a Soc as well. I think I would want to be friends with Ponyboy since he offers a different perspective of things, and I know that he would be loyal and have my back.
