Answer:
The central idea of the poem Our Generation is to show that today's generation of adolescents and children is not lost, and that they can get ahead if the things they are doing wrong are reversed.
Explanation:
The poem <em>Our Generation</em> was written by a 14-year-old girl named Jordan Nichols.
The peculiarity of this poem is that when we begin to read it, it narrates everything bad that the current generation of children has. It describes a generation that doesn't care about anything and doesn't want to fight to change it. Basically it describes everything that older people think of this generation. But when we get to the end of the poem there are some lines that say: "Read from bottom to top now".
Read it from bottom to top the poem changes completely. Show how this girl really sees her generation. A fighting generation, which can change all the bad they have if they set their mind to it.
Answer: In William Shakespeare's play The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, two speeches are given to the people of Rome about Caesar's death. In Act 3, Scene 2 of this play Brutus and Antony both try to sway the minds of the Romans toward their views. Brutus tried to make the people believe he killed Caesar for a noble cause. Antony tried to persuade the people that the conspirators committed an act of brutality toward Caesar and were traitors. The effectiveness and ineffectiveness of both Antony's and Brutus's speech to the people are conveyed through tone and rhetorical devices.
