Answer: Not really sure what the question is but I found this.

Explanation:

The Stevenson family’s involvement in lighthouse engineering began with RLS’s grandfather, Robert Stevenson (1772-1850).

Robert’s mother Jean Lillie (1751-1820) had married Thomas Smith (1753-1815) who was an engineer at the Northern Lighthouse Board.

Why did the author begin the article by providing "The Raven" as an example of narrative poetry?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The author says that "The Raven" is an example of narrative poetry because it contains interesting characters that add drama and suspense to the narrative.

Explanation:

The Raven is the most famous poem by Edgar Allan Poe. When it was first published on January 29, 1845, it brought him worldwide fame.

The poet talks about losing his love, Leonore. That loss is colored by mysticism, because the narrator feels fear when he is visited by a mysterious raven, who often repeats the words "never again". The poem can also be said to be grotesque; there are a large number of scenes in the poem that are deeply psychologically described. The poet asks the raven questions about his beloved again, hoping that he will give him any more positive answer, except for the many times repeated "never again". However, everything that the poet felt when he saw the black bird was in him before, and the raven only helped everything to come out of it. We know nothing about how Lenora perished; the motif of losing a loved one without explaining its cause often appears in Poe's poems.

The Extended Holiday
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Two ideas that the phrase "nostalgia had a powerful allure" suggest about the townspeople's attitude toward the toy store are:

1. The townspeople miss the old days before Margot's daughter took over the store.

2. The townspeople are eager to see what creative ideas Margot and Andre bring to the store.

Explanation:

Nostalgia is a sentimental longing for the a time or place in the past which somebody feels.  This yearning draws one to want to return to such a past time or place.

Adults, while watching children play or students, are usually drawn to nostalgic longings, as the children at play or students remind them of their former innocence or life experiments.

Allure is the attraction to an appearance or expression.

Narrative Essay

Explanation:

Sample Narrative Essay

The examples inform the readers about the writing style and structure of the narration. The essay below will help you understand how to create a story and build this type of essay in no time.

Introduction

The villagers had lost a few goats and poultry to a mystery. The mystery of the missing farm animals spread like a wildfire in the village. Many speculated there were thieves in the village while others suggested a wild beast was on the run. Despite several speculations, the mystery of the disappearances remained unsolved. The whole village was in a state of dismay when the tiger appeared and launched another attack on the village.

Body

The prey was not any farm animal this time, it was a young child playing by the barn. The villagers had had enough, they had to put a stop to it once and for all. They organized a group of the bravest men from the village, armed them with shotguns and knives, and planned to attack the tiger. They also took a goat to lure to the tiger in our trap.

The plan was to trap the tiger and later kill him. I was amongst the members of the group who left for the jungle late at night. For hours we did not hear anything except the mosquitoes and crickets around us. Then we found paw prints on the muddy ground which assured us of the tiger’s usual trail. Thereupon, as the sun rose we set up a trap using a goat as bait. We were assured that this would catch the tiger immediately.

We had almost given up when suddenly around daybreak we heard the bushes rustle and the leaves crackle. All of us shivered to our spines and saw the mystery east coming towards us. We changed our guns and pointed it towards the wild beast. We steadied our guns towards the tiger as he jumped to grab the goat. He fell into the trap. One of the members shot the tiger dead and we rescued the goat safely back to our village.

Conclusion

The mission was accomplished. We had killed the wild beast and had emerged successful. It was an amazing hunting trip. One that would always remain in my memory for all time to come.
