Can someone help! It could be a paragraph or an essay!
ehidna [41]

Answer: Beauty and the Beast

Explanation:

While Snow White includes many components that illustrate the idea of beauty is more than skin deep, Beauty and the Beast most effectively demonstrates this because the Beast is a true prince in disguise. Snow White is always a beautiful woman, with a kind soul. The only time she struggles with seeing beneath the surface is when the Evil Queen poisons her, and even then, the queen isn't dressed or disguised beautifully. In Beauty and the Beast however, the hideous monster that Belle thinks she will never be able to fall in love with, turns out to not only be the handsome prince of her dreams, but also is a truly wonderful soul that she falls in love with on its own.

Someone help me please 1.) Auntie Sonya wore a blank expression a.) hungry b.) friendly c.)quarrelsome d.)sorrowing 2.) uncle sh
zlopas [31]
<span>1) Auntie Sonya wore a  d.)sorrowing expression. She was a lady who thought that life can't be good when people reach her age. The description by Iskander nicely emphasizes the mood that his character brings into story: ''She was a middle-aged woman with short hair and a look of permanent sorrow frozen on her face.''. Throughout the whole story she always seems unhappy.
</span>
2)  Uncle Shura calls the narrator a monk. He called him so because unlike his sister he follows the principles of the religion that their parents belong to. Uncle Shura said that in humoristic way, but the narrator become very offended primarily because his world of faith was destroyed in a second when his sister ate the pork.

3) The narrator's brother once jumped out a window. When he heard someone's knock at the door he realised that it is his teacher came to complain for his bad behaviour in school. When parents opened the door, the boy had already jumped out of the window in order to avoid punishment.

4) <span>The narrator thought he deserved the notebook more than his brother or sister. He became a little sad because at that time it was hard to get notebooks and he thought that kids have to deserve it. Since he was an excellent pupic he thought that all the 9 notebooks should belong to him, not to his sinful sister or his scampish brother.

5</span>) Treachery is compared to a caterpillar. When the narrator sums up all his thoughts and actions he admits that even though his sister left her principles, he was the only person that parents must blame on. And in the very last sentence he compares betrayal to a caterpillar : 'and that out of a small cocoon of petty envy, an ugly moth of betrayal can grow.'

How are cherry and marcia different from greaser girls?
Nikolay [14]
While not as strikingly beautiful as Cherry, Marcia is small and cute with dark hair. Two-Bit normally goes for Greaser blondes, but he really hits it off with Marcia because they are so much alike. They both have the 'same scatterbrained sense of humor. Hopefully this helps a bit
