Answer:
Once you have determined the existence of a duty, you must determine whether or not the defendant has breached his duty. A defendant can breach his duty both by acting in a certain manner or by failing to act in a certain manner. That is to say, a defendant can breach his duty either by acting in a manner that violates the reasonable man test, or by not acting in a situation where he is legally required to act.
That being said, the accident could've been avoided if Rachel had not gotten angry and thrown the frying pan out of the window. She failed to act properly.
The advantage of changing this excerpt to Avery's first-person point of view would be to get more background on why Maritza treats Avery this way.
When we have a different perspective of the story we can have access to much more complete characters this is the real advantage of doing that.
It is not necessary to compare Rosa Parks and Irene Morgan's stories since the characters we are talking about are in fact, Maritza and Avery.
Answer:
<em>Personification</em>
Explanation:
<em>Personification</em> is a figure of speech where we give human characteristics to inanimate objects.
In the given example we have Butterkist which is a famous British company that produces, among other food, biscuits. The sentence gives us an impression like Butterkist is a real person, a cook, who cooks those biscuits, so in a way, we <em>gave life</em> to the company and that represents personification.
- Diggers, corkscrewing cleanly in, exhilerausted, into the mind mine, impaled on edgeless shafts of subtle reminiscence, green- walking across the belts and ties.
In this sentence, the author uses words such as the "mind mine" and "reminiscence," which imply that the subject of his poem spends a lot of time alone with his thoughts. This lack of company or interaction with others highlight issues of isolation and alienation.
- Slanted dark-walked time, wet with ages of dryness, Raga of insignificance & blessed hopelessness.
"Dark-walked time," "ages of dryness," "insignificance" and "hopelessness" allude to the lack of <em>presence</em> of the subject. It also points to feeling small and unimportant. Loneliness often has these effects (feeling insignificant, feeling like there is no purpose to existence, not being present in the moment). Therefore, the sentence reiterates the suffering of alienation and isolation.
