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.

In at least 150 words, explain three ways in which Flannery O’Connor’s short story “A Good Man is Hard To Find,” exemplifies the
Kay [80]

Southern Gothic is a genre with a mood that combines Southern details, such as small-town life, with terror or suspense. Unlike early gothic literature about vampires and ghosts, Flannery O’Connor and others began writing about the monsters around us in everyday life. A key characteristic of this genre is having deeply flawed characters. In “A Good Man is Hard To Find,” both the grandmother and The Misfit are deeply flawed characters for very different reasons. The Misfit is a murderer who seems to have been created by a failed penal system, while the grandmother seems like a proper lady at first, but turns out to be selfish, a racist, and ultimately gets her whole family killed. It is through these characters that O’Connor explores the theme of good and evil, and whether people are truly capable of change.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

1. According to the text, Anders described the view of Earth before Earthrise as portrayed in the image. They have seen the vision of the Earth behind the lunar horizon as they float through the space.

2. The Mission Summary and Splashdown are not portrayed in the image but are in the text. The text tells us the brief history of what happened back then.

3. The mood of the text is quite similar to the what is being conveyed by the image as it represents visual examples of Earthrise experience. The text also describes the image which corresponds with one another.

4. When words meet pictures, readers try to understand text through virsual representation of the image. Creating mental images while reading will improve comprehension as it will help readers visualize the details in the text.
