Answer:

He is trying to convey the idea that our journey is already prepared, waiting for us to teach us a life lesson.

Explanation:

To paraphrase Salak, we can say that we should not undergo an easy journey and that it will not add anything to our lives. This is because a journey must bring a teaching, an aggrandizement, allowing us to be shaped by it and that when we finish it, we will not be the same as when we started it. With that, he says that we should not choose the journey that we must follow, because we will always choose the most comfortable one, which may not provide us with any knowledge. However, we must be chosen by the journey, because in this way we will evolve.

Buying things on easy instalments keeps you permanently in debt . Write down your points in favour/against the proposition

Leokris [45]

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

The answers are:

1-When she pleads with him to remove the veil just once, why does he refuse?

A- he refused to remove it because he wants to teach his parishioners to reveal their own true selves.

2-Why does she then reject him, yet never marry another?

A-Elizabeth never stopped loving Reverend Hooper even though she broke their engagement. And for the same reason she never married, although she undoubtedly had many opportunities to do so.

Explanation:

The story is about Reverend Hooper the minister of a small town, one day he appears at the meeting-house adorned in a black veil, not offering an explanation.

1 A."'There is an hour to come,' said he, 'when all of us shall cast aside our veils. Take it not amiss, beloved friend, if I wear this piece of crepe till then.'"

Here Reverend Hooper talks about people hiding behind appearances.

2 A "'Do not desert me, though this veil must be between us here on earth. Be mine, and hereafter there shall be no veil over my face, no darkness between our souls! It is but a mortal veil--it is not for eternity! O! you know not how lonely I am, and how frightened, to be alone behind my black veil. Do not leave me in this miserable obscurity forever!'"

Here Reverend Hooper asks Elizabeth to love him even though he uses the black veil, and she is present at Hooper`s death.
