Hello. You forgot to mention that this question is about the poem "We Wear the Mask" and forgot to show the answer options. The options are:

The author is saying the only truth is what the world sees.

The author is saying religion is a crutch for the oppressed.

The author is rejecting the power that human society has over him by emphasizing Christ as the ultimate authority.

The author is accepting society's emphasis on appearances by emphasizing Christ's appearance.

Answer:

The author is saying religion is a crutch for the oppressed.

Explanation:

The speaker of the poem relies on Christ, using religion as a force for the abbustias he presents. This is because the speaker cannot show humanity how much he is anguished and oppressed and that is why he uses a mask that hides the real emotions he is going through. However, Christ sees how much he is suffering and that in a way presents a relief for him.

Which statement best expresses Emerson’s point-of-view in the sentence?
klasskru [66]

None of the above options show what Emerson meant by the sentence, as the sentence states that an individual, to be a significant man, should be outside the mainstream of thought, being a nonconformist.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Emerson's sentence is intended to show how people cannot conform to the pattern of thinking established by society.
  • This pattern take away the individuality of people and make all of them conform to a reality that is not satisfactory, but within what is said to be correct.
  • In this case, Emerson reinforces the idea that men should be non-conforming and stay out of the mainstream.

This question is incomplete, but it is possible to find a similar question that shows the sentence we are discussing.

You can see the full question in the figure below.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The verb "caterpillaring" suggests:

A. slowly moving

Explanation:

The word "caterpillar" is originally a noun used to refer to a type of worm-like insect. Caterpillars are small and their bodies do not allow them to move rapidly. With that in mind, we can infer that an author who uses "caterpillar" as a verb wishes to convey the idea that something is moving slowing, crawling, just like a caterpillar. In conclusion, we can choose letter A as the best option.
