How does the story "Prince Louie" show the influence of the biblical story of Samson? In both stories, a strong hero loses his s

trength through the treachery of his wife, who is an enemy spy. Both narratives are about a young man who receives the gift of super-strength from a divine being. Both stories feature a young man of humble birth who is raised to power as God's favorite. In both stories, the hero's mother gives him a superpower that he doesn't really want.

Answer:

In both stories, a strong hero loses his strength through the treachery of his wife, who is an enemy spy.

Explanation:

In the biblical story of Samson,his mother is instructed by God at his birth never to shave a hair from his head and he would have super strength to achieve what mere men could not achieve.

True to the words of God, Samson grew up having great strength because his hair was never shaved. He fell in love and married Delilah a Philistine who was sent to spy on him and discover the secret of his great strength so he can be subdued. Samson tells her his secret and he is subdued by his enemies.

In the story <em>Prince Louie, </em>when Louie was only just a child, his mother tells him that soon he would become King Louis of Forbush and she gave him a ring and asked him to wear it at all times and he would succeed in his royal duties.

Just as his mother said, he grew up to become a successful king, banishing his enemies and the kingdom having peace. He fell in love and married Anabellla of Gnarltree who unknown to him was a spy sent to find out the secret of his power. King Louis told her his secret was the ring and sge got the ring off and his kingdom was invaded.

Of their married felicity but little is known, perhaps for the reason that Tennessee, then living with his partner, one day took
jasenka [17]

The themes of friendship and loyalty are developed in these excerpts by the use of the infidelities. Tennessee had an affair with his partner's wife and she accepted him. However, she was also unloyal to him and she finally abandoned him to go with another man. The relationship between Tennessee and his partner is a ckear example of loyalty and frienship because even though Tennessee courted his wife they continue being friends, they had an affection that was unconditional. Tennessee's partner admired him and that feeling continued after his death.

Read the events that led to Art Fry's creation of temporarily permanent bookmarks described in The Evolution of Useful Things.
Len [333]

Answer:

Hi! The correct order of the events that led to Art Fry's creation of temporarily permanent bookmarks described in <em>The Evolution of Useful Things</em> is: 3,4,1,2. <u>The correct answer is the third one.</u>

Explanation:

I chose the third option (3,4,1,2) because, according to the text, the chronological order for the things that led Art Fry's creation are:

  1. Spencer Silver came upon a curious adhesive that he demonstrated to Fry.
  2. Fry reflected on the failure of bookmarks to do all that might be expected of them.
  3. Fry spent nearly a year and a half experimenting.
  4. Fry's idea was accepted as being commercially viable.

Besides the way in which these events were described by the author, and if you think about it, it <u>is pretty logical</u> the way this happened. Usually, we come up with ideas when we are complaining about the lack of a thing that would be useful in certain moments. If you think about it, this is also what happened here. The last step of the process is always the commercial viability just as in this case.

Which of Cyril's actions does Saki exaggerate in "The Storyteller" to create satire? Select three options.
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Disobeying his aunt .

Asking questions about everything .

Commenting on the two stories he is told.

Explanation:

Satire is a literary tool that writers use to provide humor, and even at times a 'truth-behind-the scene' comment which may be what the writer wants to expose but didn't want to admit directly. It becomes a tool for the writer to express the things that may seem hard to address.

In H. H. Munro's short story "The Storyteller", Cyril is the small boy traveling with his aunt and two sisters. And through this young character, the author uses the tool of satire to bring into focus some of the themes he wants to express or bring to light himself. And by exaggerating the character of Cyril, he allows the readers to get a sense of what the aunt is like. Cyril becomes the tool through which some issues were raised, when he disobeyed his aunt when he is told not to smack the cushion, asks numerous questions unnecessarily, and even commenting on both the stories that were told to him. He even openly proclaimed <em>"It is the only beautiful story I have ever heard"</em>, indirectly commenting on the story-telling ability of his aunt.

Thus, the <u>correct answers are the first, second, and last options</u>.
