<u>Hidden characteristics of of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight:</u>
Sir Gwain and the Green Knight is a medieval romance in as far as it deals with adventures of a brave and courageous knight, Sir Gawain, who accepts the challenges of a Green Knight and beheads him once with the Green Knight’s axe in King Arthur’s court as per the Green Knight’s wish.
The condition that the green knight puts forth before giving the challenge is that he would return it in a year and a day in the green chapel. Actually, it is a game. After he is beheaded once, he gives his head to the queen of King Arthur’s court and rides away.
In the end, the Green Knight turns out to be Bertilak, the lord of a castle that Sir Gawain visits on his way to the green chapel and stays on in on the request of the lord.
He is transformed into the Green Knight by magic of King Arthur’s sister, a sorceress who wanted to test Arthur’s Knights. He is the hidden character who reveals his true identity in the end after Gawain overcomes his trials.
Gawain is saved from the Green Knight’s blow because of the girdle gifted to him by Lady Bertilak. In the end, Lord Bertilak calls him a blameless Knight in the whole land.
Question: Foreign languages are extremely important to students' education. After taking my first Spanish course, I saw a significant increase in my English grade. As a student in Spanish, I learned how to form verbs and verb phrases in that language. Learning about verbs and verb phrases in a different language gave me a different perspective about the same parts of speech in English. This new knowledge made English class much easier, and I received good grades in both classes last year. Learning foreign languages helps students in many different subjects.
Ian wrote a argumentative speech to convince the school board to adopt more foreign language classes at his school. Do the examples from this part of Ian's speech support his position?
I think your answer is,
- A. No, because they do not give a detailed explanation of the benefits.
I think this is because;
- Yes, he got good grades, but it does not mean it's mandatory.
- He is very close to persuading the audience.
The answer is E.
Hope it helps!
