Plz helppppp I’ll give fifty points and brainliest if u do it rtIn this task, you will write a critical essay on Tolstoy’s The D

eath of Ivan Ilyich (approximately 900 words). You may have previously drafted a similar, shorter essay in a lesson in this unit. If you have, please expand on the shorter essay that you wrote for that lesson by adding critical research and widening its scope. If you did not write a shorter essay, you can start writing from scratch by following the steps included in this task.
Here are a few ideas for you to consider while writing your essay. You can pick any one of these or choose a topic of your own to build your essay.

How does Tolstoy employ his characters to draw out the difference between the artificial and authentic life?
How does Ivan Ilyich perspective towards death change over the course of the novel?
How does Ivan’s suffering affect his attitude towards both life and death?
Make sure you consult at least one source from your school or local library and at least two credible Internet sources, and incorporate the information that you gather into your paper. Use information from respected journals or academic or government institutions when looking at online sources to ensure that you’re referring to credible sources. Verify if the author that you are quoting is an expert on your chosen subject. Ensure that the author has published many articles in reputed journals and other sources. Also, ensure that the article you want to reference is well cited and has a bibliography at the end. For more advice, read about finding and evaluating credible resources and citations.

Also remember to include relevant information from the primary source—Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich—in your essay as well. You can access the novella by opening up any of the lessons about the The Death of Ivan Ilyich.

Include at least one counterargument in your paper. A counterargument or counterclaim captures an idea that those with a differing viewpoint might raise against your claims in the essay. By anticipating such counterclaims and offering a rebuttal, you make your own argument stronger. Read more about organizing your essay and including counterarguments. Ensure that your arguments flow in logical, well-structured paragraphs that reference and directly address counterclaims.

After you have finished your essay, create a works cited page that follows the Modern Language Association (MLA) style. You can use this resource guide to prepare your works cited page. Follow the steps mentioned in the Process section below as you work on your essay to see the steps you should follow.

Process

Follow the steps below to complete your essay, and use the resources provided to assist with your research and writing. When you have finished your essay, use the drop box to submit it to your teacher.

Gather sources. Before creating your thesis, begin gathering additional sources to build your argument and support your thesis. For each source, consider the following questions:

Who authored the document?
What is the purpose of the document?
When was the document written?
How will this document help your argument?
Read and evaluate sources. Next, examine each source and think about how you will use it to support a thesis. Be an active researcher by asking the following questions about each source you reference:

What is the credibility of the source?
Is there any noticeable bias?
How does the argument differ from others you have read?
What is the value of the source to the topic you are investigating?
Develop your thesis statement. Now that you have analyzed sources to use as evidence, revisit the essay question. Then, develop your thesis statement.
If you need additional guidance, many writing resources are available to help you create a strong thesis statement.

Form your argument. Once you have a clear, strong thesis statement, develop your argument. Make a particular effort to match the evidence in your sources to the points in your argument.

Write your essay. As you write your paper, use quotations from and summaries of your sources to support your argument. Be careful to keep the following ideas in mind:

To avoid plagiarism, make sure to cite your sources properly with in-text citations as well as a works cited page.
When you finish, reread the essay to check for all of the points above, and then proofread it to be sure your work doesn’t contain errors in grammar or spelling.

Answer:

I'm sorry, but I can't really help you. I have a essay if you need it. [This is not copyrighted, I actually made it.

Explanation:

If you ever need a good essay for the theme, "All that glitters is not gold", I have one for you:                                                                                                       Gold is a precious chemical element that emits spectacular glitter. However, glitter can be a characteristic of a variety of substances. These substances are just as important as gold. The wise saying goes “all that glitters is not gold.”. (Pause) My interpretation of this phrase is   everything that shines are not always valuable.  

People act in a charming manner to try to deceive. If someone is being nice to you, it does not mean they have your best interests in mind. They may behave pleasantly, but they might not be telling the truth.

 

Some friends seem nice face-to-face but beware of fake friends. They can talk negatively about you behind your back. (Pause) A person’s heart and mind are like onions, with several layers. The outside layers might be glittering with sweetness, however, in the pit of one’s heart they conceal their true intentions and feelings.

Something too good to be true could be useless! If a person offers you something that is too good to be true, it is a warning that it might not be what it looks like. If someone offers you such a thing, take a step back and think about it. You must be rational and logical before responding. (Pause)

Similar to pyrite, the iron stone that looks like gold, appearances can be deceiving.  If the saying “All that glitters is not gold” sticks to your head, you’re armed for battle!

According to our class studies, there are seven major Tenets of Romanticism. Which of the following is NOT one of them?
Vitek1552 [10]
Stream of consciousness which came much later than the Romantic writers and artists.

The Second one has to be B. It cannot be the last 2. We as a species have failed to live up to the Romantic ideal. He is lecturing all people, not writing for them. He is disappointed in man's behavior.

I'm sorry I don't know the answer to the third one. My guess would be allusion. He is referring  to Greek gods.

Pick a picture you like and write a story about the picture. Write a paragraph of between 15 and 20 sentences.
Elis [28]

Answer:

One morning, I woke up and thought to do something instead of sitting around. I had gotten a message from my best friend saying that a new haunted house was open. I told him that I'd go. Once we got there, no one was there. It started raining. We went inside and heard footsteps. I didn't know what it was because again, there was no one there. After a little bit of investigating, I found out that there was a box under a wooden plank near the footsteps. I opened the box, only to see a picture. In a split second, my friend was on the ground, grappling a mysterious creature. I said that we had to leave immediately, and not try to fight. He refused. He managed to throw the creature in a locker as we ran as fast as we could away from that house. When we arrived at my place, we observed the picture more closely. I will never forget this image.
