Read the excerpt from chapter 2 of Night. And so an hour or two passed. Another scream jolted us. The woman had broken free of her bonds and was shouting louder than before: "Look at the fire! Look at the flames! Flames everywhere . . .” Once again, the young men bound and gagged her. When they actually struck her, people shouted their approval: "Keep her quiet! Make that madwoman shut up. She’s not the only one here . . .” She received several blows to the head, blows that could have been lethal. Her son was clinging desperately to her, not uttering a word. He was no longer crying.
Answer:
. He is able to share his observations about one event in depth
Explanation:
Given that A memoir is a biographical writing that consist of various memories about a real life person, instead of fiction. It is actually established on factual incident, written from the perception of the author.
Hence, with the memoir genre the author was able to show how terrible conditions can cause people to be unsympathetic to the pain of others, by providing the enormous details that are factual about the incident. He was able to give such extensive details through his observations about the event.
Therefore, the correct answer is "He is able to share his observations about one event in depth."
Thomas paine's common sense was important because it instigated the American colonist to fight for the independence.
The pamphlet of common sense was written in 1776, in the time which was shaping the American revolution war. The first battle of independence happened in 1775, yet there was no firm determination among some colonist who were hoping reconciliation of any kind with Britain, because there was no serious hatred towards the monarchy system.
But, in 1776, the pamphlet published where it stated ideas on why monarchy is bad model of governing system and American colonies must be free. Thus, the common sense published in 1776 build up independence sentiments, convincing the undecided colonies for independence. After six months of the common sense publication, independence was declared in July, 1776.
The first option is the answer: <em>Titinius feels guilty that Cassius is dead, and decides he must kill himself.</em>
How I built the conclusion:
Firstly, the act starts with a conversation between Messala and Titinius. Then, Messala EXITS, so a monologue by Titinius starts (Since he's the only one in the scene, there's no need to identify the speaker, as there was previously when Messala was also present).
Since he's alone, and speaking with a sorrow tone when he starts to 'talk' to Cassius, it can be assumed that Cassius is dead. And apparently, Brutus had previously instructed Titinius to give a garland (the <em>wreath of victory</em>) to Cassius. (The notice of Cassius death is probably the report that would <em>thrust Brutus' ears</em>, and what Messala left to tell him, in the first place). Finally, he decides he will still accomplish his mission (<em>Brutus' bidding</em>) by also dying (as giving Cassius his garland in the afterlife).
So with the <em>gods' leave</em> (in this context, permission), he meets his <em>Roman's part</em> (separation from Rome - material world). And he finally conclude the deed by 'inviting' <em>Cassius' sword </em>to find <em>Titinius' heart </em>(his own heart - thrusts a sword into his chest).

Antithesis as a literary device, uses parallelism to Express contradictory ideas as one overarching and fluid theme that when taken together cause the reader to pause and deeply consider what the author is trying to convey. In "life without go-go boots,"the author uses two contrasting views regarding her position on fashion and its importance in how we are slated in society. Opposing one another throughout the piece are the importance of inner-individuality as well as outward conformity. The two seemingly opposite ideas when taken together help define the constant warring ideas every person on the planet goes through at one point or another. The author pits them opposite one another as a sort of yin and yang where both are required to maintain balance in the universe-at least her universe. In reality her lack of fashion brings her to a much more comfortable position in life as she realizes her career as an author allow her to be eccentric every day. Until she is required to play by the rules and go to her awards ceremony. She accentuates the theme of contradiction all the way to the end when she describes the suit which still hangs at the top of her closet, dry cleaned as if to remind her that despite her best efforts to be that fashion-conscious lady she understands that was and never will be her role. She doesnt fault either side but does express the sentiment that the fact that she never was that person still bothers the little girl in her that longed for acceptance by the masses.
