Tresset [83]

The novella “Anthem” is set in a Dystopian world where technology, scientific development, education, and equality were under the control of totalitarian leaders. This type of society came into existence after the Great Rebirth when a great war was fought. The land of Anthem seems primitive and distant from our world which equates much with a mythical fantasy land. Ann Rand wrote this novella to give a picture of the future which we would most probably be witnessing. She has tried to highlight the ills in the society which the future is carrying for the coming generation.  

After running off from their society, Prometheus (Liberty) and Gaea (Equality) discovers a house on the top of a mountain. With astonishment, they find the house small, colorful with windows, mirrors, bedrooms, clothes kept in closets, and a small library in it. Since they have never witnessed any such thing, they found it strange but at the same time they didn’t want to share these things with anyone else.  The society from which they ran away was a communist one where the things which eased the life was under prohibition. They were not allowed to have friends or relationships with one another. Their lives were short and miserable resulting in grief and sadness. The use of technology was minimum, and education was a tool of brainwashing.

Ayn Rand wrote this novel to focus on the ills of the Second World War and against the Soviet Union communism. According to Rand, when an individual focus too much on society he forgets about his own personal life. This novel gives an insight to the ills of Industrial Revolution which valued more on state and erased the values of human rights.

Which elements keep you most interested in a fictional book? Check any that apply.
Kazeer [188]
Well, it depends on the genre of that non-fictional book. For instance, a mystery book would make the audience interested if there was an unsolved mystery included, but an adventure book, for instance, might hook the reader if it was actually based on historical events and something like the book described had actually happened. Therefore, for a fictional book, I would say all of these interest me depending on the type of book.

Furkat [3]

Answer:

Socio-cultural theory of cognitive development.

Explanation: The Russian psychologist Vygotsky's theory is a milestone and the basis of  constructivism. He felt that social learning precedes development. He explains that "every function in child's cultural development occurs twice, firstly, on social level(interpsychological) and secondly, on individual level"(intrapsychological). Thus, when Xavier modifies the poetic techniques he is reflecting Vygotsky's instructional principle of cognitive development according to which child constructs knowledge actively. He says cognition and consciousness are the by-products of socialization.

In "Attack the Water," Mirikitani uses _____ language to create vivid images of the human effects of war.
artcher [175]

In "Attack the Water," Mirikitani uses concrete language to create vivid images of the human effects of war.

Concrete language appeals to the senses. If a word is concrete, you will know which of the five senses it appeals to.

Concrete language provides the readers a clear understanding of what the writer is writing about, whether it  is a place, event, person, or other topic, by  giving precise details and specific identifying  information. Without concrete language, writing may be uninteresting, unclear or vague.
