That the characters age is sixteen at one point
I don't think so about your question
Montresor tells all of his servants that they must stay in the house. He also tells him that he is going out and will not return until much later. Since the story takes place during a popular festival, the servants want to leave and join the partying. Montresor knows that if he tells the servants he won't be back for a while the servants will leave the house anyways. Since he is not there to make sure that they are doing what he's asked, the servants will go off and do whatever they want.
Answer:
The answer(s) are below
Explanation:
1. The main topic of this speech is, to not have the fear of growing up; consequentially graduating. It helps the reader understand that graduating is a big step in life and that it will happen sooner or later. it is just a fact of life, so the passage helps the person understand that instead of getting discouraged and giving up or being hyper prone to giving up because of someones opinion. The reader should do their best and accept the fact that graduating happens to every one and they should make the best of it.
2. The form of text being utilized is persuasive/inspirational, the entire preface of the passage (see comprehension question 1.) Is persuading students and young adults not to give up, and persevere, under this, it almost becomes and inspirational speech as well.
3. The supporting details for this persuasive excerpt/passage, are that the setting for this passage is almost as if there was a meeting, or a student council meeting, for young people as well as youngsters. Steve Jobs is quoted in this passage by saying "dream bigger" telling the audience to figuratively and literally, dream bigger and to not be afraid of failure because they can always get back on their feet some how. Another point that would not be considered supporting detailed but has come to my attention is the rhetoric used in this speech is so mature yet understanding of the current situation, it is amazing.
4. After reading the passage this speech seems to be targeted to young adults/teens graduating or soon to graduate. Although as with all speeches, there is a target audience, that does not mean that the speech is <em>only</em> for that audience. A teen recently enrolled into high school might find great comfort in this speech.
5. This speech could be further improved by, in my opinion, giving more examples. This text has given many examples, you just need to look hard. In my analyzing of passages one thing that usually sticks out to me is when a story does not have many examples, this passage has examples, and the ones it uses are very powerful; but having more examples just gives writing that extra flare and makes it even more enjoyable than it already is.
Well I would say that one of the central themes in Ernest Shackleton's South can be analyzing the complexity of the fight between the individuals and the society along with its "norms", in a world where nature is somewhat relentless towards humans. Hope this helped.
