You have all witnessed the power that has been given me by the Great Spirit, in making that fire, and all that I now ask is that these, my two chiefs, may never let it go out
“I had been living here like a poor woman.”
“I have existed merely to perform tricks for you.”
“It is your fault that I have made nothing of my life.”
4. by? I know for sure it not 1. for and 3. from.
C. would be the correct answer but this is probably late
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The figurative languages:
But if a man would be alone, let him look at the stars: I believe he was talking about how fascinating it is to look up at the stars, for when he did he was amazed at all that he saw in the sky, wondering how it was possible.
...retire as much from his chamber as from society: talking about how a man is fully in isolation if they have stopped doing both work and socialization.
almost all the figurative speech after the first one listed all talk about his fascination for the stars.
the other ones include:
...will separate between him and what he touches
But every night come out these envoys of beauty
and light the universe with their admonishing smile
The correct answer is C. Jerry challenges himself for more.
Being a young boy, he has felt for a long time as if he was in charge of his mother and vice versa. Both of them are overprotective. Jerry seeks independence, yet he is afraid of abandoning his widowed mother. When he separates from her to go to another beach, he feels as if he was betraying her. But his urge to go his own way is stronger. True, he feels the peer pressure of those boys, and is afraid of not being able to beat the challenge they posed for him. But his real, deep and intimate urge is to challenge himself, and not compete with them. When he dives through that tunnel under the sea, he risks his life. But he doesn't give up, as that venture is his own, and he wants to experience it. Once he beat that challenge, he goes back to his mother, calm and serene, and doesn't even feel a need to tell her about it. He is more mature and independent now than he was at the beginning of the story.
