Read the excerpt from “The Scarlet Ibis.” Doodle was frightened of being left. “Don’t go leave me, Brother,” he cried, and he le
Harrizon [31]
When Doodle keeps crying, "Don't leave me. Don't leave me," the reader is being prepared for the fact that his brother will, in fact, leave Doodle. Unfortunately, when he does leave Doodle, the results will be disastrous.

Doodle, as we know, is not a healthy child. The narrator struggles with having a sickly brother but soon comes to love him. Although Doodle remains weak, he eventually learns to crawl. The narrator vows to teach him to walk so he can be normal.

The two practice in secret and soon Doodle learns to walk. The narrator is not satisfied with these results and pushes his sick brother to go further. They train in the swamp, far from the house, so they do not get in trouble.

As they are "training," a storm comes in. Doodle has already been tired from his training and does not have the ability to run home. The narrator, however, runs home to escape the storm, leaving Doodle behind. When the narrator goes back to look for him, he finds Doodle has collapsed and died. The blood on his neck connects him to the scarlet ibis they earlier found dead. Both were fragile and both were alone when they died.

The narrator deserves a certain amount of blame for not only pushing his brother further then he was capable but also of leaving him behind during the frightening storm. Therefore, the best answer is that Doodle yelling "Don't leave me" best foreshadows when "the narrator races ahead and leaves Doodle to struggle behind during a terrible storm."

Read this speech by Creon, which occurs in the second half of Antigone. Based on these lines, what can you infer about Creon's f
mariarad [96]

Based on the speech, we can infer that Creon views women as inferior beings to men. For him, a woman should be subservient to the will of the men in her life. Creon immediately labels any woman who goes against the decrees of men or opposes a man a “shrew.” He even warns Haemon against marrying such a woman because soon her embraces will turn “wax cold.” This statement implies that a woman’s sole job is to please her husband. Moreover, he speaks of anarchy in solely feminine terms, addressing it as a She, suggesting that women are responsible for everything that goes wrong in society. He also believes that it’s a man’s inherent right to tame and master women; he says that being cast out of society would be a better fate for a man than to admit that he was made to bend to a “woman’s will.”

Ancient Greece was a patriarchal society. As in other ancient societies, women led sheltered lives and were not meant to question decisions made by men. What sets Antigone apart is the heroine’s boldness to stand up to not just any man but to the king. Plus, she never once seems to regret her decision after she has defied the King’s order and buried Polyneices. Keeping these points in mind, Creon’s negative reaction to Antigone does seem to align with the ideas about gender roles in ancient Greece.

What is the connotative meaning of this line from Kurt Vonnegut's "Report on the Barnhouse Effect"?
alukav5142 [94]
When you think about Thanksgiving cooking, typically you think of a rush to get everything done and to put all of the food onto the table so that everyone can eat. There is a tone of rushing and impatience being conveyed. Therefore, I would say that 4 is the most suitable answer. General Barker is clearly in a hurry and is under some stress. I hope this helps.
