Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

It creates surprise since both women find out that they are engaged to a different man who called himself Earnest Worthing.

Explanation:

When the two women finally realize that they had been dating men with different identities who called themselves Earnest Worthing, they are surprised. Surprise is a state of shock because an event or fact is unexpected.

The knowledge that what they knew as true was not really true must have been a source of shock and surprise to the two ladies.

What is an aphorism? Cite correctly two of Benjamin Franklin's aphorisms from pages 33 and 34 of your books and explain what you
monitta

Answer::

An aphorism is an observation about a particular something that holds a more general truth. For instance,

"If it isn't broken, don't fix it." means - don't mess with things that are working fine (I once heard a version of this at an engineering event - "Better is the enemy of good", which referred to the fact that students would take a working design and try to make it better but would in fact end up with a mess.

Aphorisms are a clever way to get people to pay attention to a point you are trying to make. I knew someone who would make up his own as conversation closers or as a way to get his point across. One of the ones I'll never forget was:

You can't stomp a snake with both feet in a bucket. I mean... how can you argue with that?!?!?!

Benjamin Franklin used aphorisms to get his points across - whether it was in the pursuit of better relations with neighbours:

Write injuries in the dust, benefits in marble (you know you are going to have disagreements with neighbours from time to time, so let the disagreements slide but remember the good forever)

personal health:

Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise

work ethic:

No gains without pains

and other such - perhaps we could call these "personal advice". He had another target with his aphorisms - politics:

If we don't all hang together, we'll all hang separately - this referred to the Founding Fathers of what became the USA - in the lead up to the Revolutionary War with England, not all of the Founding Fathers were onboard with declaring independence and fighting for it. The debate, as might be imagined, was fierce. Franklin, with this aphorism, simply states that If we don't all hang together - that is, form a united front, then we'll all hang separately - that is, they will all be hung for treason and each person will get their own rope.

Which depiction of the subject
IgorC [24]

hi

Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" is a poem by one of the foremost figures of 20th-century American poetry, William Carlos Williams, first published in Pictures from Brueghel and Other Poems in 1962. The poem is a work of ekphrasis—writing about a piece of visual art—and is part of a cycle of 10 poems inspired by the paintings of 16th-century artist Pieter Bruegel (or Brueghel) the Elder. Both Bruegel's painting and this poem depict the death of Icarus, the mythological figure who died after flying too close to the sun, in a rather unusual way: in both works, Icarus's death—caused by a fall from the sky after the wax holding his artificial wings together melted—is hardly a blip on the radar of the nearby townspeople, whose attention is turned instead toward the rhythms of daily life. Tragedy is thus presented as a question of perspective, something that depends on how close one is (literally and emotionally) to the event in question.
