Answer:
B. The scandal contributes to the characterization of Stalin as anti-Semitic and a continued supporter of the former Nazi Germany.
Explanation:
"The Doctors' Plot" shows how Stalin intended to execute the arrest of 15 Jewish doctors. These doctors were big names in medicine at the time and everyone was involved in the treatment of the diseases that Stalin had. However, Stalin showed no improvement and began to accuse the doctors of poisoning, even without any proof that this was really happening. This shows how Stalin maintained an anti-Semitic sentiment and supported the concepts raised by former Soviet Germany in relation to Jews.
Answer:
The theme of the passage is that telling the truth is always the best thing to do.
The evidence of this theme can be seen in the lines:
"But in the morning, he gathered his nerve and told his father what he had done. His father was silent for a moment, then hugged Oskar. "I know it was hard for you to admit that," he said, "but I also know how much you love the stars and planets. Let's fix it together so you can learn more about how telescopes work.""
Explanation:
The theme of a text refers to the message the author wants to convey through reading. In the case of the text presented in the question above, the reader can see that after the boy breaks his father's telescope, he is very afraid to tell the truth about what happened. However, when he plucked up the courage, told the truth, and took the blame, the boy's father was not angry, but rather proud that his son was brave enough to tell the truth. In this, we can see that the message the author wants to present is that telling the truth is always the best option. This is the theme of the excerpt.
Answer:
B) Flashback
Explanation:
I have found the sentence that is missing in your question. Also, I think that the sentence is not written correctly but I cannot find from which story it comes from.
”If she close her eyes, she down from a nearby mountain and chasing her family.”
- In this sentence we can see a flashback as a literary device because the narrator is describing us a situation from the past in which he has the ability to remember it trough closed eyes.
Flashback are often shown in literary work as interruptions where writers are showing action that happened in the past because in that way they are providing context to some events or narrative that will happen in the future.
When a hero has to make a desion of weather to save a society and lose his only family he ever had in his entire lifetime. Also, a hero who loses something very dear to him or her.
