Why does the speaker describe death as being "luckier than anyone supposes

English
1 answer:
RideAnS [48]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Whitman claims that "All goes onward and outward, nothing collapses, / And to die is different from what any one supposed, and luckier." In other words, life continues and goes on in ways that we do not, and perhaps cannot, expect, and nothing ever truly disappears.

Which best describes the irony in the ending of charles
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Henry David Thoreau is known for living in the woods on the shore of Walden Pond, in self-sufficient isolation. Less known, however, is that a year before building his cabin in Concord, Massachusetts, the famous American author and environmentalist accidentally started a forest fire that nearly burned the Concord woods to the ground.Seven years after graduating from Harvard, Henry David Thoreau was drifting through life. Having failed to support himself as a writer, the 26-year-old had bounced from job to job, working as a tutor, a teacher and even as a handyman for poet and fellow Transcendentalist Ralph Waldo Emerson. In 1844, he was working at his father’s pencil-making business.

That year, Thoreau spent the last day of April fishing in his hometown of Concord with his friend Edward Sherman Hoar. After weeks of abnormally dry weather, the Sudbury River was shallower than normal, which eased the task of finding a catch. By mid-morning, the pair had already harvested a bounty of fish, and went ashore to cook a chowder. Using matches borrowed from a shoemaker who lived along the river, the friends lit a fire in a tree stump.

Explanation:

Thoreau had kindled campfires numerous times without incident, but this time strong spring winds whipped the flames, and cascading sparks set ablaze the long, wiry grasses around the stump. Thoreau and Hoar furiously stomped the burning grass and beat the fire with a board they hauled from the boat.

Based on your own experiences and observations, which two phrases should be considered when predicting what paul will do? unexpe
horsena [70]

Based on my experiences and observations, the two phrases which should be considered when predicting what Paul will do in Unexpected Visitor by T. Herlinger are option D. "wracked with embarrassment and guilt" and option E. "hiding from the New York crowd of pedestrians".

<h3>Who is the unexpected visitor in this story?</h3>

In the story Unexpected Visitor by T. Herlinger, the unexpected visitor is Paul's father.

Paul's father, in a grey business suit, baking in the August heat, visits his rebellious son to understand his situation.

He is happy that his son has become independent and decides to eat lunch with him.

<h3>What do the last actions of Paul suggest?</h3>

When Paul's father reaches up and ruffles Paul's hair, grinning at him, Paul quickly turns his head away, wracked with embarrassment and guilt, as he is ashamed of the fact that he had disobeyed his father and had discontinued helping him in his restaurant.

After that, "Paul ducked his head, hiding from the New York crowd of pedestrians, and wheeled the rack of clothes down the sidewalk in the other direction." This shows that he doesn't want to encounter any other familiar faces and is ready to ditch his father from their appointed meeting to eat lunch together.

Therefore, the two phrases which should be considered when predicting what Paul will do in Unexpected Visitor by T. Herlinger are option D. "wracked with embarrassment and guilt" and option E. "hiding from the New York crowd of pedestrians."

Select the correct text in the passage.
Temka [501]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

I would say the correct answer is C. While Roosevelt does not name those who are the enemies of the freedom of religion, the image represents those nations that suppress or deny that freedom. Envisioning freedom of religion by depicting different people who stand and pray isn't really accurate because Christians are those who typically pray standing or sitting, so it illustrates the Western worldview. This image would have been more accurate if it presented some people standing, others kneeling down (such as Muslims), some sitting and meditating, and yet others not praying at all (such as atheists).
