What are the barrier in using sensory imageries well in writing?​
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The main barriers when using sensory images in writing lie in subjective issues of the sender and receiver of the message. Thus, when writing a sensory image, a situation is being captured in letters and phrases that, in reality, is visually perceived and is interpreted and valued differently, depending on who and how they see it. Thus, for example, the description of a certain place can have positive or negative connotations depending on who is reading the text.

On the other hand, given the infinite variety of elements that make up reality, and on the contrary, the limited specificity of the language, the description of a natural environment can be interpreted differently depending on who reads it.

How does the characterization of the children create satire? They are curious about what is in the garden. They are pleased to l
____ [38]

This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Read the excerpt from "The Storyteller."

"Why weren't there any flowers?"

"Because the pigs had eaten them all," said the bachelor promptly. "The gardeners had told the Prince that you couldn't have pigs and flowers, so he decided to have pigs and no flowers."

There was a murmur of approval at the excellence of the Prince's decision; so many people would have decided the other way.

How does the characterization of the children create satire?

Answer:

The characterization of the children create satire because:

B. They are pleased to learn that the prince chooses pigs over flowers.

Explanation:

A satire exposes the difference between our beliefs and reality. In the short story "The Story-Teller", by Saki, the satire comes from the situational irony presented in the bachelor's story. The bachelor is traveling in a train wagon with three children and their aunt. The aunt tells them a story with the purpose of teaching them a moral lesson. To her disappointment, the children find the story boring.

The bachelor begins to tell a story himself. Unlike the predictable story told by the aunt, his story is filled with surprises and ironic incidents. Instead of teaching kids that they should be good, he teaches them that being too good may be an awful thing. <u>The children's characterization in the excerpt creates satire because they are pleased to learn the prince in the story chose to have pigs instead of flowers. Their reaction contradicts what society would expect of them. It goes against what the aunt - a representative of society - thinks is appropriate. They are not pleased by what is right or good - they are pleased by what is entertaining.</u>
