“Tuesday Siesta:” Which phrase from the text best indicates the harsh environment that the mother and daughter experience on the

train trip?
English

Tpy6a [65]2 years ago

The sentence “under the oppressive sun” indicates the hostile environment of the trip.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • In “Tuesday Siesta” we come across a journey made by a mother and her daughter.
  • The trip was very exhausting and difficult, mainly due to the environmental conditions.
  • This becomes clear when the narration states that during the journey, the sun was oppressive.

With that, we can say that the sun was emitting energy very strongly, making the environment very hot and difficult to be overcome, which severely jeopardized the trip.

How important are the principle of speech delivery in real life situation?​
goblinko [34]

Hey! I'm not sure if the principles of speech are universally recognized, but these 7 are mentioned in a popular article by amanet.org:

  • Perception
  • Perfection
  • Visualization
  • Discipline
  • Description
  • Inspiration
  • Anticipation

If this isn't what you're talking about, I apologize; hopefully my answer can still help you:

  • Perception - Think of this as your ego (its abundance or its lack); a big trait in public speaking/speech delivery in general is focusing solely on the topic of the speech. When you start worrying about the effectiveness of your delivery, that worry is recognizable and makes you less authentic.
  • Perfection - "Perfection" is kinda the same thing, with emphasis on not over-thinking the small mistakes you might make.
  • Visualization - If your audience can't visualize the ideas you're presenting, they'll quickly lose interest/get lost.  
  • Discipline - Practicing/experience (obviously) makes you a better, calmer presenter.
  • Description - Methods like "painting pictures" in your audience's heads/using rhetorical appeals to build a solid foundation for your claims is super important.  
  • Inspiration - Speak to inspire, not to aimlessly stuff your audience with weak, boring, cliche ideas.
  • Anticipation - Try to withhold key ideas for a little bit/linger on other information to create the feeling of suspense; when you create long-lasting interest, you become a more memorable speaker.

Hopefully I was of some help!

2. "This falsity around him and within him did more than anything else to poison his last days

Explanation:

According to the given excerpt from Leo Tolstoy's The Death of Ivan llyich, the author talks about the life and death of Ivan Ilyich and how the falsity around him helped hasten his death.

The two sentences in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy's The Death of Ivan llyich that reflects the author's belief that Russia's rising middle class was unable to express genuine emotion are the statement that Ivan Ilyich would want to express emotions of sadness and crying but when his comrade came over, he would pretend and assume to be serious and unbothered, and the statement about the falsity around Ivan Ilyich poisoned hisast days.
