Answer:

D) A life-giving force

A) Sadness and nostalgia

C) Metaphor

B) John Keats

Explanation:

The given lines are from the poem<em> A Thing of Beauty</em> written by John Keats. This is why option B is the correct one in question D.

In question A, you left out one of the options you were given - <em>a life-giving force</em>. I marked it as<em> option D</em>, and it is the correct one. An immortal drink is a drink that gives immortality, or in other words, life.

All lovely tales evoke the feeling of sadness and nostalgia. Nostalgia and sadness usually accompany each other as nostalgia is longing for the past. When we long for someone or something, we usually feel sad. This is why option A is the correct one in question B.

The literary device used in the quote from question C is the metaphor. The metaphor is a type of comparison made between two unrelated things that are similar in some aspect. It usually states that something is something else. This quote refers to all the beautiful things Keats listed before, including the lovely tales. They are the life-giving force described as the immortal drink.

You can’t take anything for granted in terms of how much of an American master he truly was—no small detail, no seemingly arbitrarry brush stroke, no corner left unturned. The sound of the crowd did not abate until Lulu stood up in the shallow water and triumphantly marched onto the shore. She loaned money to the desstitute, but never borrowed. However, my skill as a hunter has been predicated upon my perfect, stealthy approach.

1) Discuss two characteristics of "The Lost Generation" writers.
lakkis [162]

Two characteristics of the writers of "The Lost Generation" are a lack of patriotism and pessimism about the future. After the First World War, women realized their importance in the labor market and politics and began to seek greater participation in these fields.

Fitzgerald uses imagery and descriptive language to give an in-depth look at the story. Two events that influenced modern literature were the Great Depression and the World Wars.

<h3>What was "The Lost Generation?"</h3>
  • It was a term created by Gertrude Stein and popularized by Ernest Hemingway.
  • It was a term that referred to the generation of people who fought in World War I and had to live through the Great Depression.
  • It was the term used to describe a tired generation, without perspectives and with a tendency to break rules and seek change.

The First World War brought many social changes, one of these changes was related to women, who realized the relevance and social strength they had. These women began to look for political representation that would allow for greater freedom and independence.

But not only did women's lives change during this period, but literature was also greatly affected by the two World Wars and the Great Depression. These events generated different literary styles and writers to tell their experiences, something that influences literature to this day.

Finally, it is important to emphasize how Fitzgerald's literary works present such a well-constructed scenario, which allows the reader to have a deep view of the work.

This happens through the constant use of imagery that makes the reader feel like living in that scenario and feeling all the impact it promotes. Fitzgerald also makes use of many adjectives creating an immersive and efficient descriptive language for the reader.
