The correct answer is II. Spiders are powerless should a rock fall on them.

Explanation: In "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" by Jonathan Edwards, the author uses a metaphor to explain how low God considers sinners to be, and that they are weak in the face of his wrath. Edwards compares spiders to sinners because of how weak and loathesome they are, and the spider's web represents the sinner's congregation. The rock falling through the web represents God's strength and gravity towards sinners.

Which story element most clearly categorizes "Exhalation" as a work of
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

B). The narrator's self-dissection experiment.

Explanation:

Science fiction exemplifies the literary genre which is inclined towards displaying imagined futuristic concepts including scientific facts, technological advances, etc. The short story 'Exhalation' by Ted Chiang is categorized into this genre as it carries the plot of a scientist's (probably narrator's) experiment of dissecting his own brain. Thus, the element that leads to the characterization of the story as a work of science fiction is 'the narrator's self-dissection experiment'. Therefore, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

In heading west mcCandless feels free of a world he describes as
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

a "stifling world of his parents and peers, a world of abstraction and security and material excess".

Explanation:

"Into The Wild", by Jon Krakueur, tells the story of a twenty year old man named Christopher McCandless. He had just graduated from college where he studied Law. Instead of pursuing and advancing his career in Law, McCandless chooses a path which is somewhat strange. He begins his journey taking the western route and later moving north to Alaska.

He undertakes this journey because he believed that the present world which he lived in and was trying to escape from was 'stifling and reeked of material excesses'. The kind of life he now chooses to live is best described as an Ascetic life only that in his case, he does not go the spiritual route. As he begins his journey, he takes along with him books about edible wild plants and thriving in a lifestyle such as he has chosen.
