Which parts of this passage from chapter 6 of Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights illustrate that Hindley Earnshaw is very willing

to please his wife?
Young Earnshaw was altered considerably in the three years of his absence. (A.He had grown sparer, and lost his colour, and spoke and dressed quite differently; and, on the very day of his return, he told Joseph and me we must thenceforth quarter ourselves in the back-kitchen, and leave the house for him.) (B. Indeed, he would have carpeted and papered a small spare room for a parlour; but his wife expressed such pleasure at the white floor and huge glowing fireplace, at the pewter dishes and delf-case, and dog-kennel, and the wide space there was to move about in where they usually sat, that he thought it unnecessary to her comfort, and so dropped the intention.)

(C. She expressed pleasure, too, at finding a sister among her new acquaintance; and she prattled to Catherine, and kissed her, and ran about with her, and gave her quantities of presents, at the beginning.) Her affection tired very soon, however, and when she grew peevish, Hindley became tyrannical. (D. A few words from her, evincing a dislike to Heathcliff, were enough to rouse in him all his old hatred of the boy.) He drove him from their company to the servants, deprived him of the instructions of the curate, and insisted that he should labour out of doors instead; compelling him to do so as hard as any other lad on the farm.

(E. Heathcliff bore his degradation pretty well at first, because Cathy taught him what she learnt, and worked or played with him in the fields.)

“I remember,” said the white man quietly. Arsat went on …
mihalych1998 [28]

ANSWER: A. Arsat's story is told with great passion

In Joseph Conrad's "The Lagoon", we can find a passionate storytelling by Arsat, contrasting the larger story's tone. This passionate tone is evidenced with the attached excerpt, where Arsat said "I shall speak to you of love" followed by a description of an intense whisper and a loud speech. This paints a picture of a passionate narration.

How does McKay develop the theme of "America"? What is his conclusion of the sonnet?
lions [1.4K]

McKay develops the theme of "America" by showing how the narrator's relationship with his country is personal rather than abstract. McKay creates tension by showing how even though America feeds, or nourishes the narrator, it is with "bread of bitterness." The narrator admits that even though America steals his "breath of life," he still loves it. This contradiction is inherent to the theme: that what harms the narrator about his relationship with America is also what makes him stronger. Yet the narrator's conclusion is that the seemingly mighty future of America is in danger of disappearing "like priceless treasures sinking in the sand."
