Answer:

A. "In the absence of a specific showing of constitutionally valid reasons to regulate their speech, students are entitled to freedom of expression of their views. As Judge Gewin, speaking for the Fifth Circuit, said, school officials cannot suppress 'expressions of feelings with which they do not wish to contend.'"

Explanation:

In this excerpt, the speaker tells us that a specific showing of constitutionally valid reasons to regulate speech was not found. This shows the importance of precedent. The doctrine of precedent is the idea that judges must inform their decisions by studying past judicial decisions. In this case, the fact that there was no precedent that could justify the regulation of speech means that the judges could not conclude that the regulation of speech had a legitimate constitutional basis.

Otrada [13]

Answer:

Wherever the crime novels of P.D. James are discussed by critics, there is a tendency on the one hand to <u><em>exaggerate</em></u> her merits and on the other to <u><em>castigate</em></u> her as a genre writer who is getting above herself. Perhaps underlying the debate is that familiar, false opposition set up between different kinds of fiction, according to which<u><em> enjoyable</em></u> novels are held to be somehow slightly lowbrow, and a novel is not considered true literature unless it is a tiny bit dull.

Explanation:

P. D. James (Phyllis Dorothy James) was an English Crime writer born on 3 August 1920. She is famously known for her series of detective novels including police commander and the poet Adam Dalgliesh.

Which statement best describes how the structure of these excerpts helps to develop the themes? The refrains of "An Irish Airman
marishachu [46]
In my opinion, the correct answer is D: <span>Both the parallel structure in the excerpt of "An Irish Airman Foresees His Own Death" and the repetition in the excerpt from "Do not go gentle into that good night" emphasize the inevitability of death.

The main point of both poems is that death is inevitable. However, in Yates' poem, the airman willingly faces death, because of an inner impulse that he finds hard to describe. In this excerpt, he tells us that he is more or less indifferent toward those who are below, on Earth. He is interested in death itself, as a dark phenomenon that haunts him. On the other hand, in Thomas' poem, the inevitability of death is human tragic destiny. We should cling to life as best we can precisely because death is inevitable. These two poems have the same topic, but opposite directions of thought: Yates' speaker goes to meet death, embracing it, whereas Thomas' speaker encourages his dying father to try and postpone death, if possible.</span>

What makes Marlow different from other seamen?
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A. He is a wanderer.

Explanation:

Referring to the book <em>"Heart of Darkness."</em>, we have a narrator named Charlie Marlow.

The main narrator describes him as someone similar to Buddha. He is someone who sees beyond what he really has in front. <u>He is not a simple seaman like the others</u>. He is an honest and intelligent person, detached from everything material.

The narrator even says it explicitly in the lines <em>“But Marlow was not typical, and to him the meaning of an episode was not inside like a kernel but outside  ...”</em> and also <em>“He did not represent his class”. </em>

The main narrator says that unlike the others seaman, Marlow did not lead a sedentary life, but was a wanderer. The way he told his story was very different from the simple way others did it.
