insens350 [35]

Answer: The theme of Fate and free will

Explanation: In the story, Mrs. Mallard's sister is afraid to tell her the news that she is now a widow, she is afraid that she might suffer a heart attack. Nevertheless, when Mrs. Mallard isolates herself in her room, she starts feeling a sensation of freeness. She realizes that she will finally be liberated from her oppressing marriage. This reaction is ironic since the reader is expecting her to be devastated. The theme of fate and free will is suggested because regardless of how liberated she starts to feel, she is destined to perish from joy at the end of the story.

Harrison is going to write a personal narrative about his uncle and the reasons he admires him. Which sentence most effectively
Luda [366]

I think it would either be C or D, but considering it's talking about the reasons why he admires him it should be D since it's not just asking for more explanation of him admiring him.

Reread lines 1-7. Compare the effect of the author’s word choice in the description of the bubbles and then in the description o
Anton [14]

Answer:

From the opening sentence, we understand that there are thirteen bubbles that floated in the milk.

The author described the bubbles as "transparent hemispheres gleamed like souvenirs of the summer days just past, rich with blue reflections of the sky and of shadowy greens".

The effect of the author's choice of words was that of imagery as it helped the readers to "see" the bubbles in their mind's eye with such clarity as it was so succinctly described.

The author further described John's actions as he used the spoon to scoop the milk and swallow it in such a way that suggested he was either very hungry or in a hurry.

"John Hawkins jabbed the bubble closest to him with his spoon,. . .there was no mark of where it had been"

This description had the effect of making the readers know how eager John was to consume the milk and how quickly the ripples vanished.

The readers can also infer that John consumed the milk in an aggressive manner because of the way he jabbed at the ripple closest to him in his effort to drink the milk.

algol [13]
Humor and satire draw attention to the subject, making readers think about it. The more they think about it, the more they consider it a serious point. Consideration leads to more attention for the author, and therefore the author sells more books. See, everything ties back to commercialism! You know, if you think about it though, it's true. Humor and satire draw our attention because they make us laugh. We humans<span> like to laugh, so of </span>course<span>, we will remember what made us laugh. So remembering it will make us consider it, and considering it makes us see it as a serious point.</span>
