The story of “How the Whale got his tiny Throat” by Rudyard Kipling was first published in St Nicholas Magazine, in December 1897. It was collected in Just So Stories, 1902, illustrated by the author and followed by the poem “When the cabin port-holes are dark and green.”
The story tells that once upon a time the Whale ate fishes of all types and sizes. At last there was only one left in the sea, a small astute fish that hid behind the whale’s ear and advised him to eat a shipwrecked mariner. The Whale swallowed the mariner and the raft he was sitting on.
But then the mariner was inside, he started to jumped around so much that the Whale got hiccups and asked him to come out. The mariner answered that he would not, unless he was taken to the shore of his British home, and hopped harder than ever. So the Whale took him to the beach and the mariner came out. But in the meantime the clever mariner had made his raft into a grating which he secured in the Whale’s throat with his suspenders. Forever after, the Whale could only eat the smallest of fishes.
the central idea of the passage is that:
Because of one man’s actions, whales never eat human beings.
So first it is asking you to basically tell what you think the “covenant” is. While explaining the covenant, make sure to add in there what God’s expectations were for the Israelites who where apart of the covenant. As well as if they followed or didn’t follow those expectations, what God did for/to them. Make sure to add verses and lines to help explain it more and give proof of your words! Hope it helps!
Explanation:
First paragraph gives us insight into the way in which slaves were dehumanised. ... Douglass makes his first suggestion that slavery changes white people this is referred to ... Violence against women.
He's saying that if he was a beast, he wouldn't understand right from wrong or be able to realize that slavery is evil, and he'd rather that than stay a slave, knowing he deserves better.
I would say arriving to class right before the test is the answer. You should arrive to class before it starts so you can ask questions, get yourself prepared, and calm down before your test. Arriving just as it starts means your rushing, and can therefore not prepare yourself for the big test. I hope this helps!
