<span>The paragraph describes a simple comparison between a family protest and a community protest.</span>
Answer:
The theme of the story is that intelligence is more effective than money in protecting people.
Explanation:
"McWilliamses and the burglar alarm" is a short story written by Mark Twain. In this story we know the McWilliams family who spent lots of money buying burglar alarms for the house where they live, but thieves keep entering the house frequently, which shows that the alarms are completely ineffective. When the family complains to the company that makes the burglar alarms, the company says they need a better and more expensive alarm, which also doesn't stop thieves from breaking into the house.
Given this, Mark Twain shows that the McWilliams family could not see that they were being deceived by the producer of the burglar alarms. This lack of family intelligence prevented them from realizing this and for that reason, they believed that money was needed to protect them, when intelligence was even more essential in this case. Thus, we can conclude that the theme of this story is that intelligence is more important than money to protect a person and their family.
It is important to emphasize that the theme of a story refers to the message that the author wants to promote through the text.
1) The role of religion played a major role in early American literature. Many different authors form a variety of time period's incorporate religious ideas and philosophies into their writings. A few authors from different time periods that did this were Johnathan Edwards, Anne Bradstreet, and Henry David Thoreau.
<span>Anne Bradstreet was a Puritan. Much like all the other Puritans of her time she examined her conscience daily and that they always felt that they were humbled by God's creations and powers. One poem in which she expresses her religion's ideas and philosophies was "Contemplations". </span>
<span>This poem was about very religious. In this poem she talks about her admiration of God and how she and all humans are humbled by God's creations. She says, "The higher on the glistening sun I gazed. Whose beams was shaded by the leafy tree; The more I looked, the ore I grew amazed, and softly said, 'What glory like to thee?' Soul of this world, this universe's eye, No wonder some made thee a deity; had I not better known, alas, the same had I". This quote means that a tree because of its beauty amazes her. Also, she is saying that the thing responsible for creating such a thing must just as beautiful if not the most beautiful on the earth.
