Explanation:

To Kill a Mockingbird takes place in the 1930s during the Great Depression.

What prevents Odysseus from killing the sleeping cyclops?
Gre4nikov [31]
Well if you read the passage on the left, it says he doesn’t want to kill the cyclops because he knows he and his men wouldnot be able to open the huge rock/stone door by themselves. So, it would be the third one.

I would recommend reading the passage more than once! It really helps a lot for multiple choice questions ;-)

How can knowing how a plot is put together help with understanding the meaning behind a story?
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The development of plot helps the readers to unlock the meaning of the story as the plot begins to proceed from the introduction to the conclusion.

Explanation:

The plot, in literary terms, can be defined as a series or chain of events that helps to form a story. There are five elements of plot exposition or introduction, rising event, climax, falling action, resolution (a.k.a denoument or conclusion).

As the readers understand this development or putting together of a plot, will help them to unlock the meaning or message of the author. As the plot begins to unfold one-by-one, the author begins to develop the theme or the message he or she wants to convey and when the readers reach the conclusive part of the plot, the message in its totality is revealed leaving lasting impressions on the readers mind.

Has anyone ever read Polar Bear by Jeanette Winterson? Please HELP! 50 points!!
MakcuM [25]

This story explains the life of a polar bear

Once upon a time there was a polar bear. He had nowhere to live so he came to live in your head. You started to think polar bear thoughts about icyness and wilderness. You went shopping and looked at fish. At night you dreamed your skin was fur. When you got in the bath you dropped through nameless waters deeper than regret. You left the cold tap running. You flooded the house. You dived into winter with no clothes on. You sought loneliness. You wanted to see the sun rise after a night that lasted as long as all the things you have done wrong. You wanted to see the sun come up and no one to be near you. You wanted to look out over the rim of the world. But you live in the city and the rest is gone.

And all the longings and all the loss can’t bring back the dead. The most beautiful place on earth was everywhere – a raft in the wilderness of space, precarious, unlikely, our polar bear home.
