Answer:
“through refracting tears”
Explanation:
The words from "Monet's Waterlilies" by Robert Hayden that most appeals to the sense of sight are "through refracting tears".
This is because, based on the poem, the author writes and talks about a world that has been lost and can only be viewed through refracting tears.
From the poem,
"O light beheld as through refracting tears.
Here is the aura of that world
each of us has lost.
Here is the shadow of its joy."
Answer:
The answer is letter B, The first passage uses factual descriptions to achieve an informative tone, but the second passage uses personal experience to achieve a reflective tone.
Explanation:
Every writer has a theme when it comes to writing. In order to let the audience or readers know about its theme, it sets a specific tone which <u>tells much about a writer's attitude</u>. The tone can vary in the different parts of the story or it can just be one.
In the passages above, the first one uses factual description to achieve an informative tone. <u>Factual descriptions</u> <em>are based on information that are proven to be true (facts).</em> The description of the Tai-me of being a small image, less than 2 feet in length, etc. shows the real description about the thing. <u>It then tries to inform or let the readers know what Tai-me is all bout, thus using an "informative tone."</u>
The second passage, on the contrary, uses personal experience to achieve a reflective tone. The writer tells a story about visiting his father and grandmother and seeing the Tai-me. This is a personal experience which tries to achieve a reflective tone by sharing insights to the readers.
Usually what element helps you identify the theme of a story is what lesson the main character learns, or any important idea or refrain throughout the story.
Answer:
<u>The correct answer is (A) She wants to protect her unborn child.</u>
Explanation:
Mary is about six months pregnant when she finds out that her husband is going to leave her.
This comes as a shock to her. She is very agitated and impulsive at this point.
Hence in the heat of the moment, she kills her husband.
<em>She did not want to go to prison because she can not bear the fact that they will take her child away from her.</em>
<em></em>
<em></em>
<em>She even thinks that they might kill her unborn child.</em>
She could not bear the thought of this, hence she decided to cover up the murder.
The body is not the most formal so I'd say it would need revised.
