Answer:

D). Shelley was an introverted child who spent much of her time wandering the countryside.

Explanation:

Mary Shelley is widely acknowledged English novelist known for her famous Gothic novel 'Frankenstein' or 'modern prometheus'. Her childhood had not been similar to other children as she lost her mother soon after she was born. She went through a major psychological turbulence when her father re-married to a women who treated her unfairly. Due to all this turmoil and disturbances in her life, she eventually turned into an introvert who took refuge in writing and reading near the country side and find solace in. Continuous wandering(to heal the turmoil she went through) in the countryside enhanced her imagination and thought process that led to creation of some marvelous works of her. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

The correct answer is D. Shelley was an introverted child who spent much of her time wandering the countryside

Explanation:

Mary Shelley who is mainly known for being the author of the novel "Frankenstein" was an English novelist during the 19th century. During her childhood, Mary Shelley grew up without his mother as she died after Shelley was born due to puerperal fever, instead her father and sister were in charge of growing up Mary. In general terms, despite the absence of her mother, the childhood of Shelley was rather happy, but after her father married again and Mary was not sent to school she started spending time reading from her father library and writing stories and poems outside of the house while wandering and staying in the countryside. Thus, even when Mary was not a neglected child during the first years of her life she was mainly introvert as she focused on reading and writing mostly in the countryside rather than playing with other kids.

schepotkina [342]

Your question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Anne Bradstreet was a Puritan who lived during Colonial America. Her poems reflected elements of her personal life. In this poem, her house has burned and she has lost all of her possessions. Read the last two stanzas (lines 43-54). How do these lines reflect aspects of her Puritan beliefs?

A) She relies on her own work ethic to build her another house.

B) She is so distraught that she wishes she had died in the fire.

C) She knows that her permanent home is waiting for her in heaven.

D) She prays for an architect from town to come build her a new home.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter C) She knows that her permanent home is waiting for her in heaven.

Explanation:

In the last two stanzas of her poem "Verses upon the Burning of our House, July 10th, 1666", author Anne Bradstreet calls God the mighty Architect. She does not seem to repine over the house she has lost to the fire. Quite the contrary, she is faithful to the belief that her permanent home is the spiritual one waiting for her in heaven. That is a reflection of her Puritan beliefs. This world is nothing but a passageway for the next and most important one. She does not need to suffer over material losses because what truly matters is the spirit. As she says in the last line of the poem, "My hope and treasure lies above."

Answer:

Always be careful about purchasing expensive items, is the item really a necessity for you or will you actually use this item often? Maybe your just buying it to stay "with it" socially. Make sure you do some research about available varieties and some research about cist and reliability of various brands. You should also consider the cost of running the item, since you don't want to be stuck with a "lemon". You never know, it may use a lot of electricity or gas, maybe then you'll have even more expense then the purchase price. These are just a few things to consider because buying an expensive item requires care.
