What primary element do “Young Goodman Brown” and “A Pair of Silk Stockings” share?

I would argue that both short stories present characters (Goodman Brown and Mrs. Sommers, respectively) that are weary of their current lives and, ideally, would like to be able to escape. Goodman Brown is losing his faith in his wife, his community and his religion, and Mrs. Sommers would prefer to focus on her and on her needs rather than on her children.

The plot is less important than the character's psychology.

Answer:

The best effective thesis statements are both the first ("Hollembeak's review of the high school's play is fun and entertaining to read") and third ("In her editorial, Mellie writes convincingly of the need for high school classes to begin later in the morning") options.

Explanation:

The first and third statements are the only ones which state a convincing thesis about an argument. Both of them are informative about what is the object argued and present a clear idea of the main point made on that. Second option does not apply to the question because it is lacking in some way, because though it is informative and sets an idea of the argument, it is very broad to state "the play's action [is] in the 21st century". Fourth option does apply to the question as well because it is not a thesis, that is just exploring the content of an argument made, clarifying ideas for readers. And fifth option does not apply to the question too, because it is not a thesis, that is just a description of an information previously given, it only characterizes an informative statement, not an effective thesis.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

A). "We take off our hats..."

Explanation:

Repetition is elucidated as one of the most commonly employed literary devices that involves repetition of a similar words or phrases within an interval in order to clarify and highlight an idea to make it memorable.

In the given excerpt from the former United States' president Roosevelt's Union Address in 1943, the repetition of phrase 'we take off our hats..' to acknowledge the hard work and determination of farmers('who accomplished an unprecedented task...world'), men and women(whose loyal and untiring devotion to work and enduring stringencies), and all the other Americans who have contributed to accomplish the 'common cause' i.e. 'development of the nation as a whole. Thus, the <u>repetition of this phrase emphasizes the gratitude and recognition that Roosevelt aims to display towards the contribution made by these people</u>. Therefore, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
