Answer:

b) The speaker and the reader wait again to find out what is making the noise.

Explanation:

The poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe is a dramatic monologue of the speaker who was interrupted at night by a knocking sound. Told from a scholarly young man's perspective, the poem addresses his change in mood as the poem progresses.

The given excerpt in the question is from the sixth stanza of the poem when the knocking came for the second time. But when he opens the door, it was nothing, no one at the door. The stanza contributes to the suspense of the poem for both the speaker and the readers aren't sure of who is behind the knocking. And both have to wait to find out the source of the noise.

Answer:

1. Direct characterization

2. Indirect characterization

3. Direct characterization

4. Direct characterization

5. Indirect characterization

Explanation:

In direct characterization, the author simply tells the readers which personality traits a character possesses.

In indirect characterization, however, the author describes different situations to show us the personality of a character. This is achieved through the character's speech, thoughts, actions, effect on others, and appearance.

For instance, to describe Jolene, the author uses direct characterization, as he/she simply lists her character traits - attentive, helpful, etc. When it comes to Shana, however, the author describes her reaction when her dog disappeared, and it is our task to conclude which character traits she might possess.

madam [21]

Answer and Explanation:

1. In short, the texts claim that people overcome adversity with resilience. However, resilience is difficult to understand. The texts show how the word "resilience" has become fashionable in recent years, but few people really know them, because very few people needed it.

2. Resilience allows people to face reality, realize that they cannot change it, but have positivity. Positivity is very difficult to establish in a time of adversity, but it must be encouraged, as it shows that this moment will pass and that it is necessary to be strong to pass it.
