Compare and contrast how Hawthorne's "Young Goodman Brown" and Wharton's "A Journey" use similar characters, a plot twist, and a
Len [333]

Explanation:

Both of these stories convey a message about disconnection and estrangement. In "Young Goodman Brown," the protagonist feels misjudged, befuddled and secluded when he discovers that his town, and all the more critically, his better half, are not what he anticipated. Then again, in "A Journey," the lady is segregated in two distinct manners. She feels detached because of the way that she is a lady, and along these lines, is to some degree outside of the open eye. Besides, she is secluded due to the demise of her significant other.    

The characters experience an emergency of personality when their social reality changes. On account of Goodman Brown, he understands that his town isn't what it appears when he finds everybody is scandalous, which is the plot twist. In "A Journey,"  which is the plot twist comes when the lady in the story understands her significant other is dead, however chooses not to state anything. This likewise prompts a personality emergency as she thinks about what losing her significant other means. Both of these stories eventually show that the characters, just as us all, are at last alone.

Usimov [2.4K]
I would say the correct answer is B. Then he sprang out of bed, and shook himself violently! No, no nose any more!
This sentence differs from the other ones that you've given us because it seems more active, more lively. There is something actually happening here, and the exclamation marks show that it is happening fast. All of these together make the sentence somewhat amusing, at least as opposed to the other ones here.

The character sketch of madame sofronie
yan [13]

Answer:

Madame Sofronie owns the hair shop to which Della sells her hair. She’s described as “large, too white, chilly,” and her manner with Della is brusque and to the point. She wastes no time evaluating Della’s hair and setting a price—twenty dollars. Her manner directly contrasts that of Della and Jim, who value their love and sentiment over material value. For Della, her hair is something special and prized. For Madame Sofronie, her hair is worth the dollar value she can get out of it.
