English

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

The answer is option D or "the writer's main point or thesis." A claim is the writers main point in a argumentative essay. You can find claims usually in the introductory paragraph along with the thesis statement which is the reasons for your claim, and then throughout the essay you will write and explain those reasons on top of statistics you find throughout the information given to you and then in the final paragraph is where you write your counterclaim. A counterclaim is the opposite of your claim, so stating a reason why the other side may be correct but still protecting your claim.

Hope this helps.

“A Whole New World” From Disney’s Aladdin
omeli [17]

Answer:

Answers with explanation given below.

Explanation:

1. An extended metaphor is basically a single metaphor that is stretched throughout the whole work. Here, the extended metaphor is that Aladdin is opening a new world to Jasmine.

It is a metaphor because he isn’t actually showing her a new world, but <u>her life has changed dramatically and he compares that to being shown a wholly different world. This he does throughout the song,</u> both of them talking about how the world is so different or new now. “No one to tell us, "No", Or where to go” and “With new horizons to pursue” give us a sense of different rules in this new world and a change of scene.

2. “I can open your eyes

Take you wonder by wonder

Over, sideways and under

On a magic carpet ride”

There are two parts to this. There is a tactile (touch/feel) imagery involved when he says to open your eyes, and there is the part about the motion that comes with riding on the magic carpet, which is kinesthetic (motion based).

If you haven’t learned these imagery types in school yet, you could just say these are visual (along with opening your eyes) and (seeing a magic carpet that flies through the sky).

“Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling

Through an endless diamond sky”

This gives the listeners and readers a sense of falling through the sky, which is exactly what the lyrics say. This is further established by the earlier lines talking about the magic carpet that takes you on a ride in the sky.

3. This song is not an example of a monologue. A<u> monologue is a long speech by one actor in a play or movie,</u> and this could’ve been one, except, <u>Aladdin isn’t the only one who contributes to the lyrics</u>. Jasmine puts in a few verses of her own throughout the song.

4. In the line, “I'm <u>like</u> a shooting star, I've come so far”, Jasmine compares herself to a shooting star using simile because she too has come so far so fast across the sky.

5. <u>Alliteration</u>: “<u>Sh</u>ining, <u>sh</u>immering, splendid”

“It's <u>c</u>rystal <u>c</u>lear”.

What is the theme of the story, "The Difficulty of Crossing a Field" by Ambrose Bierce?
stich3 [128]

Answer:

I believe the theme of the story revolves around truth and how it can be defined or changed by those who have more power.

Explanation:

Ambrose Bierce's "The Difficulty of Crossing a Field" is a one-page short story. A man named Williamson is crossing a field when he suddenly disappears. However, only two people are listened to and believed when it comes to this strange fact - Mr. Wren and his son. But most importantly, Mr. Wren and his son are white men who own some land. Williamson's own wife and the slaves working on the field are not listened to or believed at all. The wife is even said to have lost her mind. The inferiority of Africans and women is clearly shown - and let's make it clear that Bierce is criticizing such an action. Everyone saw his disappearance, everyone came up with different explanations to it, but the woman and the slaves were not considered worthy of being heard and trusted. The "truth" in the end is something chosen, established by a few.
