The Bronte sisters felt constrained in their language use by social expectations placed on women

Answer:

I believe the best way to interpret the excerpt to be letter A) The Brontë sisters were judicious in their use of descriptions.

Explanation:

According to the interpretation in letter A, the sisters were judicious in their use of descriptions. Judicious is synonym with wise, sensible, and astute. We may come to the conclusion that they were indeed judicious after reading the excerpt. The author compliments their ability to choose objects, landscapes, and natural phenomena to describe feelings, passions, and emotions that are bigger than words. Their descriptions are made in such an intelligent manner that readers are able to grasp the message they mean to convey which would have been otherwise lost. Therefore, letter A seems to be the best option.

The author of this excerpt does not accuse Emily or Charlotte of being excessive, does not talk of social constraints, nor discusses the nature of the subjects in their writings.

In which passage is it clearest that the author is using diction to achieve some kind of effect?
Reptile [31]

I think the correct answer is: B) The bride floated down the aisle to her awaiting love.

First of all, diction is the writer's choice of words. By choosing the words, the author defines the mood and the style of writing. This can be the difference between a great writer or an average one, between capturinf the readers attention or not.

In the options given, the B seems like a sentence that was well thought by the writer as he uses profound words that evoke a certain feeling, in this case it could be love. The use of the word "floated" gives us a clue on how the bride was feeling, she didn't just walk. The rest of the options only describe mere actions without giving them a deeper meaning.

qaws [65]

I think there are two ptions that show internal conflict:

1) He considers whether or not to trust the inmate who tells him he´s not fifteen.

In this case he doesn't know the inmmate and doesn't know the exact reason hes telling him to lie. One reason is because he wants to help him, that information would save his life from the SS. The other option is that the inmmate is selfish and by telling him to lie, the kid will be punished instead of him. The kid must decide then if he trusts him or not.

2) He must decide whether or not to tell Dr. Mengele the truth about his age.

In this case he has even more doubts, he knows Mengeles reputation and he doesn't know how much information does he have and how will it affect him. If he lies he might know it and punish him or that lie could save him.

The conflict is real because his life could depend on the decissions he makes.

daser333 [38]

Answer:

According to Shelby Ostergaard, religious wars and the Protestant Reformation were key elements in leading Europe into the nation-state system.

Explanation:

In the 15th century, a conflict within the Catholic Church prompted the Protestant Reformation and the European religious wars and that fragmented the European political order. The conflict ended when the Peace of Westphalia (1648) was signed, establishing Roman Catholicism, Lutheranism, and Calvinism as different authentic Christian beliefs, and reorganizing Europe from a tribal system into the nation-state system.
