Answer and Explanation:

In the short story "The Lady, or the Tiger?" by American author and humorist Frank Richard Stockton, I believe the princess chooses the door that will lead her lover to the tiger.

The narrator uses direct characterization when he tells us the princess is semi-barbaric, just like her father. From this piece of information, we can easily infer she is not totally rational in her decisions. She will allow her emotions, which revolve mainly around jealousy and anger, to get the better of her.

Indirect characterization is also used when the narrator describes her feelings, thoughts, and actions concerning the possibility of her lover opening the door the lady:

But how much oftener had she seen him at the other door! How in her grievous reveries had she gnashed her teeth, and torn her hair, when she saw his start of rapturous delight as he opened the door of the lady! How her soul had burned in agony when she had seen him rush to meet that woman, with her flushing cheek and sparkling eye of triumph;

From the excerpt above, we can tell the princess is indeed letting jealousy dominate her. Instead of wishing her lover to be alive and well, she seems to rather wish him dead, all because of her fear of seeing him marry another woman. For those reasons, I believe the princess pointed him to the door that leads to the tiger.

Answer and Explanation:

Hello. Although you have informed the text to which this question refers, you have not informed the specific part of the text to which you are asking and referring, which makes it impossible to answer that question in a specific way.

However, when it comes to "One Friday Morning" we can consider disappointment as the climate of history as a whole. That's because in these stories we are introduced to a black girl who was prevented from following her dreams and had her talent reneged and devalued because society was racist. In this way, the reader is disappointed by a very promising young black woman who was prevented from pursuing the goals she had.

Answer: 2. He uses dialect to better connect the message to the intended audience.

Explanation: I want to say that it is answer 2.)!

This is a very emotional poem that I had to analyze last semester, the message of the poem is very important to the author and poem itself. Dialect is generally a kind of language that people speak in a certain region or part of the country. The word "Alas!" in the first line can be dialect, it is helping to add to the message of the poem, and simply helps express sorrow.

Anyways, I hope this helps!
