2 answers:

7 0

Culture shapes perspective of the world. It sounds clear to try and contentious. Many reviews have show individuals from societies see things diversely, most likely because their way of life formed the way they see the world. While I concur with this thought, I think individuals regularly ignore how culture can be distinctive for every person and hence influenced by it in an unexpected way. From these past reviews, individuals have over-summed up the discoveries to extensive whole of populace under such comprehensively named culture and in view of my own understanding, I might want to contend how we ought not simply mark individuals into culture in wording we regularly do.

What are some advantages of James Hurst deciding to have Brother as the narrator? (answer in 3-5 well-developed sentences) *

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

With Hurst making Brother as the narrative voice, we are able to reach deep into the feelings and emotions of the brother. It also reveals a sense of brotherly love, the want, and the need to make his sickly brother be a part of the 'normal' life of his peers and at times, even the selfish interests of the brother.

Explanation:

James Hurst's story "The Scarlet Ibis" revolves around the story of two brothers, one physically sick and the older brother trying to make sure his brother is capable of living the life of a typical child. Only identified as "Brother", the narrator is the older brother of the sickly William "Doodle" Armstrong, the story's main protagonist.

Brother's voice gives us an insight into the brotherly bond between the two siblings. He also gave us an in-depth look into what he really feels about his sibling's sickness, and what he wants for him in life. He pushes and tried to train him to make him stronger. At times, he even admitted it was for his own sake that he wants others to see his brother is like every child. He admits "It was bad enough having an invalid brother" and even wanted to smother him with a pillow. But a smile brought the human in him and he then decided to "train" and help him get better, be like every other kid.

Had the narrator been not the Brother, then all the inner feelings and emotions, the hatred and then the want to help, the pity and at times the selfishness will never be really revealed or known by the readers. So, through the voice of Brother, we understood and also know a great deal about the two brothers and the story's overall plot.

Write about a time when your best friend surprised you. What was the surprise? What was your reaction? Did you enjoy it? Do you

Dominik [7]

Answer:

The time when my best friend surprised me was some days after my birthday.

He brought a huge cake and completely shocked me, and that was early in the morning.

I was elated, excited, shocked, all forms of happiness and surprise.

Yes, I did really enjoyed it.

I definitely think it is good to sometimes give surprises to others. We may not know what is happening to them, but surprises make people forget their sadness and bring happiness, even if temporary.

Explanation:

On my birthday, my best friend surprised me with a birthday cake. He brought it and came to my home without any notice early in the morning.

The surprise was a success, for I genuinely loved not only the cake but also the gesture. I was utterly shocked that he would even do that, considering it was already some days after my real birthday. But the surprise was a welcome surprise.

I think it is indeed good to give people surprises, for it makes the other person so happy. It was, at least for me. I never imagined that will happen to me, but it did and I really enjoyed it. And we never know what’s going on with people. So, surprises may bring temporary happiness, but it provides relief from the problems for some time, and that’s still better.

Match each excerpt to the figurative language it uses. Tiles irony synecdoche symbols metonymy Pairs Poem Figurative Language O,

Mrac [35]

irony (when something opposite of what is expected happens) Thank Heaven! the crisis— The danger is past, And the lingering illness Is over at last— And the fever called "Living" Is conquered at last. (from “For Annie” by Edgar Allan Poe) You don't expect death to be the end of the crisis. In reading this you would initially think the person got better and was living.
synecdoche (when the part represents the whole) The western wave was all a-flame The day was well nigh done! Almost upon the western wave Rested the broad bright Sun; When that strange shape drove suddenly Betwixt us and the Sun. (from “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” by Samuel Taylor Coleridge) This example talks about a wave (part) when the speaker is really talking about the ocean (whole).
symbols (one thing represents another) Ah, sunflower, weary of time, Who countest the steps of the sun; Seeking after that sweet golden clime Where the traveller’s journey is done; (from “Ah! Sun-flower” by William Blake) In the poem he's using the sunflower as a symbol.
metonymy O, for a draught of vintage! that hath been Cool'd a long age in the deep-delved earth, Tasting of Flora and the country green, Dance, and Provençal song, and sunburnt mirth! (from “Ode to a Nightingale” by John Keats) In the selection, he's not just drinking the wine, he's also drinking everything that went into growing and making the wine.
