Answer:

1. To get ahead, a person needs to have good goals, study hard, and plan well for the future.

2. The professor needs to either publish more books or work with his students.

3. She is having good days, bad days, long days and short days.

4. Hike the Appalachian Trail is exploring the Panama Canal and the Mississippi ford.

Explanation:

The above sentences were rewritten to create parallelism.

Parallelism is a rhetorical device which refers to the repetition of a particular grammatical structure in a sentence. It provides clarity and balance in a sentence where it is employed. It also gives the sentence pattern and rhythm.

In the rewritten sentences, we discover that each of the phrases that make up the sentence follow the same grammatical structure. You will observe the structure as used after each comma and/or the conjunction, "and" in each sentence.

If war broke out, might it be unlikely that fighting would happen in Britain?

BabaBlast [244]

I think it would be likely. Britain is a country that is well-developed and has a decent military. If you are referring to war in London or other big cities, I think the armies would try to keep warfare on the battlefield, not urban areas. However, to counter that, (correct me if I'm wrong), I believe London is on the water, so a type of naval invasion would be likely. It also depends on who the fighters are. Britain v. U.S.A. for example, evacuations of cities would begin, and it's likely we'd see another Refugee Crisis like the one happening now in Europe, but smaller. But the U.K is part of the U.N., a huge group of unified countries. If war were to break out, it's likely forces would be pushed out easily with the help of other powers/countries.

Canterburytales summary

Flura [38]

Answer:

"The Canterbury Tales"

In ''The Canterbury Tales'', the pilgrims are setting off to see the shrine of a martyr, which seems to color the stories they tell to each other on the way. This lesson discusses the morality and lessons learned in ''The Canterbury Tales''.

The Canterbury Tales is a book written by 14th century poet Geoffrey Chaucer. The story, which was published almost 80 years after Chaucer's death, tells of 29 people at the Tabard Inn who met each other while traveling to see the shrine of the martyr Saint Thomas Becket, which was located in Canterbury. It is there they also meet the host and narrator of the tale, Harry Bailly. They decide to travel together, and end up telling each other tales to pass the time and win a free dinner at the end of the trip.

Chaucer originally intended to write a story in which each character in the party told four tales, two tales on the way to the shrine and two tales on the way back. However, the published book consists of the main story, plus 24 additional tales. This has led some people to believe that the book was never finished.

When Chaucer wrote The Canterbury Tales, England was experiencing a lot of upheaval due to class wars, political tension, and the Black Death, a plague that was killing a lot of the population. These events and the ways in which the characters document social tensions impact the themes of this book. Although none of the characters state it specifically, there is a moral lesson in each of the tales.

-OR - OR - OR - OR - OR - OR-

The Canterbury Tales is a frame narrative, or a story told around another story or stories. The frame of the story opens with a gathering of people at the Tabard Inn in London who are preparing for their journey to the shrine of St. Becket in Canterbury. The Canterbury Tales consists of many tales starting with the General Prologue and ending with Chauser's retraction. Not all tales are complete; several contain their own Prologues or Epilogues. Probably influenced by French syllable counting, Chauser developed for the Canterbury Tales, a line of 10 syllabus with alternating accent and regular end rhyme - An ancestor of Heroic Couplet.

The purpose of the Canterbury tales was three-dimensional characters.

Is Fitzgerald an optimist or a pessimist for romance?

elena-s [515]

I would say pessimist. In "The Great Gatsby", Gatsby never ends up getting Daisy. He loved her, but all of his efforts were wasted. She never loved him back. I hope this helps!
