As we can see by reading the poem, The narrator is very melancholy and has dark thoughts that are caused by the death of the beloved woman. This loss makes the narrator sink more and more into sadness and does not look for any other way to get rid of it, on the contrary, he seeks ways to torture himself psychologically through the raven. This can be seen in the lines "Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December; And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor. Eagerly I wished the morrow; -vainly I had sought to borrow / From my books surcease of sorrow- sorrow for the lost Lenore / For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore- Nameless her forevermore "

The ravem tortures the narrator because when he sees that his presence causes obsession, he decides not to leave and is not tempted to bring joy to the narrator, on the contrary he is satisfied with answering the narrator's questions with "nevermore," showing that none of the narrator will be attended to.

Describe your worst presentation. What would you have done differently in order for it to have turned out better?

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

My worst presentation was probably a couple of years ago before I got over my fear of public speaking. It was in History class and it was a political speech about a topic of our choosing. I chose healthcare i think and wrote a good speech and everything. Once it was my turn to present (in front of the entire class), I had a panic attack, ran into the bathroom and cried until the nurse came and took me to the nurses room. I spent so long just crying, because after the panic passed, i realised I was going to fail if i didn't do the presentation and I really didn't want to fail. Over the next week I spent time with my history teacher who slowly helped me practice, starting with presenting in front of a mirror in an empty bathroom, then in front of an empty classroom, then in front of him and the finally in front of the entire class. It went fine and I got an A! I just wished I'd have practiced earlier to avoid all this embarrassment.

4. (Janis et al. 611). Put a full-stop after the parenthetical citation.

<h3>What is a parenthetical citation?</h3>

A parenthetical citation is an in-text citation used to summarize, paraphrase, or quote from another source.

The MLA parenthetical in-text citation style uses the author's last name and a page number; for example: (MacGregor 122) without any comma separating the last name and the page number.

The purpose of the MLA parenthetical in-text citation is to direct readers to the entry in the works-cited list, which must be included at the end of the report. See attached image for further understanding.
