Why is it significant that Tony and Maria repeat the phrase “tonight, tonight” over and over in their song?

Hello! Allow me to help!

Your question: Why is it significant that Tony and Maria repeat the phrase “tonight, tonight” over and over in their song?

My answer: These two phrases are the biggest indication of what this song predicts, as well; Tony's romance with Maria, the sister of the Shark gang leader, Bernardo, and the fact that, due to hatred and conflict between the Jets and Sharks, as well as tribal/ethnic loyalties, Tony and Maria's romance will not see the light of day.

Why is my answer correct? Good question! Allow me to explain: The fact that West Side Story, as a movie/musical, is a combination of so many different events that take place, which, in turn, fuel the various emotions, and therefore the dancing, is also what gives this great movie/musical its strength and enduring fortitude, and makes it as relevant, even today, as it ever was. So many things that went on back then, and still go on, also give West Side Story its strength. Urban gang warfare, racial & ethnic tensions, romances that take place across racial, ethnic, religious and socioeconomic lines, the immigration experience, conflict with the law, substance and alcohol abuse, and tribal/ethnic loyalties that result in protection and honor, and yet often have deleterious results, as well. There are romances across various lines that succeed and flourish, even resulting in dating and intermarriage as well as the raising of families, and yet, some romances/marriages go up in smoke due to tensions, hostilities, and hidebound, insular tribal, ethnic and cultural loyalties.

Hope this helps! UwU

Answer:

If you think that a blank sheet of paper or a blinking cursor on the computer screen is a scary sight, you are not alone. Many writers, students, and employees find that beginning to write can be intimidating. When faced with a blank page, however, experienced writers remind themselves that writing, like other everyday activities, is a process. Every process, from writing to cooking to bike riding to learning to use a new cell phone will get significantly easier with practice.

Just as you need a recipe, ingredients, and proper tools to cook a delicious meal, you also need a plan, resources, and adequate time to create a good written composition. In other words, writing is a process that requires steps and strategies to accomplish your goals.

These are the five steps in the writing process:

Prewriting

Outlining the structure of ideas

Writing a rough draft

Revising

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

School trips leave a great impact in the mind of the student, where he goes without his family, with his friends and colleagues, which allow him to rely on himself and take responsibility and enjoy the activities of the trip.

Each school planning for trips is as a recreational and educational way, supervised by social workers and school supervisors, who planning visits, ticketing, bus booking, etc.

I went on a school trip to (name of the city) of (Governorate name). of (city area in km) and (population number) approximately.

I prepared my small bag and put sandwiches, juice and water for the trip. I went to sleep early to wake up early to be full of energy on the journey.

We rode the bus in front of the school in the early morning and we left our parents and friends who did not come with us.

The bus driver displayed a documentary about the city we were going to visit and the tour supervisor told us about the directions and instructions we should follow and how to act in case of lost. He provided us emergency numbers and asked us to write them in a paper and keep in our pocket.

We arrived at our destination and started visiting the (museum name) which is a large museum featuring many important items that tell us the history of the city.

Then we went to visit the open museum which is an open area with many beautiful items.

Then we went to visit the important landmarks of the city.

The last stop of the trip was to visit the amusement park, a recreational city with lots of games.

The supervisor gave us two hours to enjoy our time, play the games we want and assemble before the door of the amusement park in preparation for riding the bus and back to our city.

We gathered two hours later in front of the amusement park door, the supervisor checked everyone’s presence and then we boarded the bus and returned to our city.

It was a beautiful day we enjoyed it a lot and we saw many of the city’s famous sights.

We learned a lot about its history and the history of its inhabitants.

Finally, we reached our city late at night. Our families were waiting for us.

We thanked the tour supervisor and went to our homes to sleep and prepare for school the next day.
