English

Answer: C. Pretty
Explanation: An adjective is used to describe a noun so "pretty" makes the most sense. For example, if the noun was "mat". A run mat, a love mat, and a quickly mat do not make any sense. Only a "pretty mat" makes sense.

What is Tan showing her reader about language and power? Mother tongue amy tan
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

When Tan states “the power of language” she means how language can “evoke an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple truth”. Many others feel the same way as Tan as words are so powerful because they are another creative outlet for people to freely express anything they want.

How does the structure of “Ozymandias” affect the overall meaning and emotional impact of the poem?
8_murik_8 [283]

In “Ozymandias,” Percy Shelley explores the theme of the futility of power and might, and contrasts it with the immortality of art. He uses three narrators to tell the events of the poem. The poem is a frame story. The reader first encounters the main narrator. Shelley begins the poem by talking about how the narrator met the traveler:

I met a traveler from an antique land,

Who said—"Two vast and trunkless legs of stone”

At this point, the narrative shifts to the second speaker, the traveler. The traveler’s main function within the poem is to give us, the readers, the setting. He describes the desolate landscape in which he saw the ruins of a once-glorious empire. Through him, Shelley prepares us for the emotional impact of Ozymandias’s final words. It is through him that we get a description of Ozymandias’s power and pride:

Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,

And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,

Through the traveler's description, we realize that while Ozymandias's power, symbolized by the ruins of his statue, has faded, the art of the unknown sculptor who captures his expression survives:

Tell that its sculptor well those passions read

Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,

The narrative voice shifts once again, and we hear Ozymandias’s words:

My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:

Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!

After one has read the traveler’s description of the ruins, Ozymandias’s words come across as pathetic and ironic, which is Shelley’s intention. He uses the word despair in Ozymandias’s boasting to his enemies. However the same despair could now be used to describe Ozymandias’s degraded state. At the climax of the poem, we recognize the irony of the fact that the once-great ruler Ozymandias is now unknown, and we get the only information we have of him from a stranger. So, by using narrative shifts, Percy Shelley increases the final emotional impact of the poem.

Find five examples of Blake’s use of questions in the poems "The Lamb" and "The Tyger,” and compare their tone.
RideAnS [48]

Five examples of questions:

Dost thou know who made thee? (from "The Lamb")

Little Lamb who made thee? (from "The Lamb")

What immortal hand or eye, Could frame thy fearful symmetry? (From "The Tyger")

In what distant deeps or skies,/ Burnt the fire of thine eyes? (from "The Tyger")

On what wings dare he aspire?/ What the hand, dare seize the fire? (from "The Tyger")

The tone of "The Lamb" is quiet. It asks the questions in a polite and gentle way. It is beautiful and innicent. On the opposite side, "The Tyger" has a tone full of fear and force.
