Answer:
He trusts his lover, the princess, completely.
Explanation:
Frank R. Stanton's "The Lady, or the Tiger" is about the story of a young man who fell in love with a princess for which he was given 'fair' judgment. This fair judgment involves choosing between two doors, which contains a fair woman to become his wife immediately, or a tiger who will kill him.
And as seen in the given excerpt, the young man seemed faithful and trusts his lover completely. When it was time for him to choose, he looked at his lover and acted according to the indication of the princess. When the princess <em>"raised her hand, and made a slight, quick movement toward the right"</em>, the young man <em>"Without the slightest hesitation, went to the door on the right, and opened it."</em> This act showed complete trust in the decision of the one he loves.
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
The meter from this line is pentameter, and to be more precise, this is an iambic pentameter.
Iambic means that the first syllable in the line is unstressed, and that it is followed by a stressed one. Here, you can see that DO in the beginning is unstressed, and the accent is placed on the second syllable, NOT. Pentameter means that there are five meters (penta means 5), and given that one meter consists of 2 syllables approximately, pentameter consists of 10 syllables in each line.
Answer:
In the essay, Judith Ortiz Cofer presents the same yet different dreams of the mother-daughter duo. While both seemed to wish for the same wish of the ability of flight, their objectives behind the wish are not that similar.
Explanation:
In Judith Ortiz Cofer's essay <em>"Volar"</em>, she mentioned in the first paragraph her own dreams of having superpowers, like her hero Supergirl. Then, she would <em>"would get on tip-toe, arms outstretched in the position for flight and jump out my fifty-story-high window into the black lake of the sky [....] and look inside the homes of people who interested me</em>". She believed herself to be the same as the fictional superhero, but waking up to the same <em>"tiny bedroom [....] back in my body: my tight curls still clinging to my head, skinny arms and legs . . . unchanged"</em>.
The second paragraph focuses on the parents who would have their "<em>time</em>" before she was woken up by her mother <em>"exactly forty-five minutes after they had gotten up"</em>. The mother wishes to visit her relatives, her <em>"familia on the Island"</em> or go to the beach and have a vacation. And in a loving manner, these propositions will be brought down by her husband. And right before she went to wake up her daughter, she;'d say <em>"Ay, si yo pudiera volar"</em> which is basically meant to say she wish she could fly.
In a way, both the mother and the daughter seem to have the same desire of flight as their wish, though they may also differ in their objective. The mother's wish was to be able to get to her "<em>familia</em>" while the young daughter’s wish was to escape from her reality and be a superhero like her idol Supergirl.
