Answer:

C. Kuno’s prediction and Vashti’s revisiting of the prediction

Explanation:

The book "The Machine Stops" is a short story that describes people who live underground and are solely dependent on a machine to solve the physical and spiritual needs.

Vashti is one of the inhabitants along with her son Kuno. Vashti is an obedient follower of the machine and its actions and decisions but Kuno is a rebel who is not happy with the way things are run underground and is eager to leave.

He tries to escape but is caught and forced to stay back, then subsequently he begins to see defects in the Machine and predicts its collapse, Vashti brushes aside his predictions even though they become more glaring each day.

Eventually when the defects become too much, Vashti revistists the prediction of Kuno and begins to brood. This causes suspense and confusion.

How do the central ideas and tone of the speech reflect Satanta’s cultural values?
pshichka [43]
Satanta was a leader of the Kiowa tribe who fought an endless war to protect his tribe's land from being taken away from the U.S. government. In the 1860s and 1870s, the Kiowa Indians waged an ongoing battle to protect their land and way of life from the U.S. encroachment. Satanta also known as White Bear, was a major Kiowa leader in favor of resistance. Besides his prowess as a warrior, Satanta was also a famed orator -a fact attested by his American-given nickname "The Orator of the Plains."

Read the excerpt from Act I of Hamlet.
Anettt [7]

Answer:

A. The simile compares the poison to a fast-moving, toxic element, emphasizing its deadliness.

Explanation:

The ghost doesn't compare the uncle to poison. Nor does he personify the vial. He is literally explaining how the uncle poisoned him by poured the poisonous plant hebona into his ear. Lastly, an apostrophe in literature is when you address someone who isn't there. The ghost isn't addressing the uncle. I believe he is speaking to Hamlet in this scene.
