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.

Describe in your own words the difference between Judge Danforth's reaction to the possibility that the girls were not truthful
andriy [413]

Answer:

judge danforth has staked his reputation as a representative of the law on the outcome of the salem witch trials. therefore, he cannot abide any result other than the condemnation of the accused. since the trials hinge on the girl's testimony (the word of abigail, betty and the others against the accused), he refuses to consider the possibility that they lied. one might even say that he is in denial; such a possibility would mean his end as a respected officer of the law. hale, on the other hand, as a man of god, cares more about the truth in absolute terms. he initially went along with the trials, but as his doubts grew he began to turn against them. he knows his reputation will suffer (or rather, it has already suffered) but, since he now believes the trials to be tainted, he fears for his soul because of his complicity in them. therefore, he is more open to the possibility that the girls lied, and argues forcefully to judge danforth against their testimony.

Which parts of this excerpt from John Bunyan's The Pilgrim’s Progress show that the central character is devoutly religious and
Maurinko [17]
In my opinion, these parts show that the central character (Christian) is devoutly religious and God-fearing: <span>Because I fear that this burden is upon my back will sink me lower than the grave, and I shall fall into Tophet [Isa. 30:33] And, Sir, if I be not fit to go to prison, I am not fit, I am sure, to go to judgement, and from thence to execution; and the thoughts of these things make me cry. Christian has experienced first-hand that life is cruel and difficult. It would be far too easy to give up on life and embrace death, but he also knows that there is one thing worse than death, and that is hell. If he were to give up, he would end up in hell. So, he is willing to go down the path of salvation, with the help of Evangelist. This part also shows it: </span><span>Whither must I fly? It means that he is humble enough to obediently follow the path that Evangelist shows him. "The Pilgrim's Progress" shows us a central character who is weak and pliable just like most of people. He often errs and goes astray, and it's his humility and commitment that give him enough courage to follow Evangelist's guidance.</span>
