Answer:

Not all Americans look at obesity as failure but some do and the reason is because they have set an expectation. Americans are not the only that look at obesity as failure and it's kind of sad that people think that way just because obese people look different. We all come in different shapes and sizes and that's normal but when Americans started saying that small waist and skinny body is what they want that's when people start judging and making obese people feel insecure. I do not experience this but my best friend does in it disgusts me to see people think that way. Obesity is not failure, it's just another fabulous body.

Compare Mr. White's feelings about the monkey's paw when he makes the first wish,
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

His attitude in making all three wishes reveal that he had changed from being expectant (first wish) to being scared (second and third wish).

Explanation:

The short story "The Monkey's Paw" by W. W. Jacobs evolve around the wish-granting item of a monkey's paw that was acquired by Mr. White, the protagonist of the story. The story delves into the themes of myth, superstition, greed, and death.

After acquiring the monkey's paw from Sergeant-Major Morris, Mr. White did not really have any belief in the story of the wish-granting ability. But pressurized by his wife and son, he decided to "test" the charm and wished for <em>"two hundred pounds"</em> so that they can pay off the mortgage for the house. He was at first skeptical about the wish coming true but when he got the right amount, though, at the cost of his son's life, he began to get scared.

His second wish was to bring his son back, again after being pressurized by his wife. To him, the first wish was <em>"A c-c-coincidence"</em> and even stated <em>"It is foolish and wicked"</em> to wish for another thing, that too, for his son to be brought back alive after the gruesome way he died. And when the knocking started, he was petrified for what was to be at the door. The line <em>'"A rat,” said the old man shakily – "a rat. It passed me on the stairs."' </em>reveals the real nature of the old man when he hears the knocking at the door.

And then, after realizing that it was probably their dead son coming alive again, Mr. White<em> "was on his hands and knees feeling around wildly on the floor in search of the paw"</em> so that he can make his third wish and make <em>"the thing"</em> at the door go away. The very nature of addressing whoever/ whatever was at the door as<em> "the thing"</em> suggests that whatever was there is something that isn't natural. Mr. White's frantic reaction and wish to make the knocking stop shows his scared reaction to the wishes he had made.

5. At the end of Hamlet, all of the main characters are dead, and a foreigner is poised to
jeka57 [31]

Answer: Before he dies, Hamlet says that he supports Fortinbras, which could be interpreted as a satisfying resolution to the revenge plot.

Explanation:

Hamlet's attempt to revenge his father results in the death of the entire family, including himself. This is certainly not a satisfying resolution to the revenge plot, especially because the audience sympathizes with Hamlet after everything that he went through. However, what makes this resolution satisfying is that Hamlet's last request is fulfilled - he wanted Fortinbras to become a new king. <em>''He has my dying voice''</em> is what he states as he dies. Although Hamlet dies, at least Denmark will have a decent ruler.
