In "To an Athlete Dying Young," the poet writes an elegy for a young, athletic man who recently passed away. This is naturally a sad subject, and the poet does begin his writing with a sad and somber tone of pity.
However, the author makes use of the structure of the poem in order to surprise his readers. Despite the sad tone of the first stanza, as the poem progresses, the tone becomes one of satisfaction and praise, which comes as a surprise to the reader.
The author is able to use each stanza to present different and contrasting ideas. While he agrees that dying young is a shame, he reflects on how quickly youth is gone, and on how many men lost their reputation by the time they became old. He claims that, by dying young, the athlete will never have to face old age, decline or loss of glory. Therefore, despite the sadness, the author is able to obtain some positive ideas from the situation.
Answer:
Emotional intelligence
Explanation:
Emotional intelligence refers to ability to perceive and regulate one's emotional experiences and to identify, interpret and react to other people's emotional responses in an appropriate manner. Consequently, Jerry's lack of emotional intelligence makes him unable to recognize and understand his own feelings as well as the feelings and reactions of the people who work with him.
Although we never learn exactly what changes Hamlet asked The Players to make in their script, it is almost certain that the changes included the dumb show portion that presents the Fellow pouring poison into the King’s ear as well as the lines about fidelity and widowhood. One aspect of the irony is that Hamlet requested the changes so he could watch Claudius’s reaction: to “catch the conscience of a king.” He later tells his step-father. Dramatic irony is simply giving the audience more information than another character has. When Gertrude says this, she is speaking to the audience, not another character. She is foreshadowing any negative consequences of another character's actions.
