"I Heard a Fly Buzz When I Died"
In what ways is this turn of events, the narrator dying, ironic?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

In this poem, the irony is that the last thing the author can perceive while waiting for her death is a fly buzzing while waiting for death to come to her.

Explanation:

  As is already known, Emily Dickinson was known for dealing with subjects such as death. The fascination that this author had with the death led her to write great poems that were highly recognized in the environment.

One of them is "I Heard a Fly Buzz When I Died".

While she waits for death, and for the "King" who comes to look for her (which could be interpreted as God), the visit she receives is not from any divinity, but rather from a fly, which ironically represents the opposite of the divine, or to a paradise. The fly is the one that comes to rest on her dead flesh while everyone is there with her waiting for that moment.

Which two details are most important to include in a summary of the excerpt?

excerpt from Frankenstein

by Mary Shelly

These reflections have dispelled the agitation with which I began my letter, and I feel my heart glow with an enthusiasm which elevates me to heaven, for nothing contributes so much to tranquilize the mind as a steady purpose—a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye. This expedition has been the favorite dream of my early years. I have read with ardor the accounts of the various voyages which have been made in the prospect of arriving at the North Pacific Ocean through the seas which surround the pole. You may remember that a history of all the voyages made for purposes of discovery composed the whole of our good Uncle Thomas’ library. My education was neglected, yet I was passionately fond of reading. These volumes were my study day and night, and my familiarity with them increased that regret which I had felt, as a child, on learning that my father’s dying injunction had forbidden my uncle to allow me to embark in a seafaring life.

Violence, an act of physical force that causes or is intended to cause harm. The damage inflicted by violence may be physical, psychological, or both. Violence may be distinguished from aggression, a more general type of hostile behaviour that may be physical, verSecondly, another form of violence which influences behaviour in our society is video games. Almost all children play video games. An average seventh grader plays video games at least 18 hours per week and most of those games are violent.

(PLEASE HELP ASAP, ILL GIVE BRAINIEST)Why is traveling an hour to work not an option for most native Americans living on reservations?

Answers

An Indian reservation is a legal designation for an area of land managed by a federally recognized Native American tribe under the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs rather than the state governments of the United States in which they are physically located. Each of the 326[1] Indian reservations in the United States is associated with a particular Native American nation. Not all of the country's 574[3] federally recognized tribes have a reservation—some tribes have more than one reservation, while some share reservations, and others have no reservations at all. In addition, because of past land allotments, leading to some sales to non–Native Americans, some reservations are severely fragmented, with each piece of tribal, individual, and privately held land being a separate enclave. This jumble of private and public real estate creates significant administrative, political, and legal difficulties.[4]

1. Robbins profiles three successful adults who were rejected, mocked, and bullied in high school because they were different.

2. Runners, swimmers, and basketball players are all athletes, just different kinds.

3. Alexandra Robbins says that geeks can have character traits such as empathy,  intelligence, and creativity that serve them well later in life.

4. Robbins says that popular students might be instigators of aggression,  members of cliques, and exhibitors of exclusionary behavior.

5. The argument suggests that students who are popular may not do as well in  school and may not be as good at finding success after graduation. Correct

Explanation:

Non-parallel grammatical structures involve the use of verb forms that do not have the same base form when comparing two or more things. For example, this sentence uses verb forms that do not have the same base forms:  Running, swimmers, and basketball players are all athletes, just different kinds. The verb, running, is not in the same base form as swimmers and players.

Parallel grammatical structures make comparisons with verbs that are in the same base forms. Example is; Robbins profiles three successful adults who were rejected, mocked, and bullied in high school because they were different. Rejected, mocked, and bullied are all in the same base form.

How can an author encourage a reader's suspension of disbelief? A.By using words or phrases that are similar in structure

B.By concentrating on the realistic elements of the story

C.By setting the story in a fantastical or unknown world

D.By telling the story from the perspective of several character

Answers

Answer:

B. By concentrating on the realistic elements of the story

Explanation:

Remember, the term reader's suspension of disbelief refers to a process when readers decide to keep aside or suspend their disbelief; thereby accepting the fictional elements of a story as though it is real.

So when an author concentrates on the realistic elements of the story, he thus encourages his reader even further to suspend their disbelief in the story.

For example, instead of concentrating on how a character dreams about having wings that fly [which is unrealistic], the author focuses on a natural tragedy such as the death of a character.

Think about the author's use of structure in your Module One short story. How does the author order events? What plot techniques (flashback, flash forward, dream sequence) are used? In 3–5 complete sentences, thoroughly explain how the author's choices regarding structure create tension and/or add to the meaning. Provide at least two specific details from the text to support your analysis of structure.

Answers

Answer:

"Rules of the Game" relies primarily on the use of the plot technique of flashback in order to highlight the conflict between Waverly and her mother.

Explanation:

Answer:

In “Rules of the Game,” an excerpt from her 1989 novel The Joy Luck Club, Amy Tan examines an early part in the development of a Chinese-American girl named Waverly Jong and her relationship with her Chinese immigrant mother. Tan presents events in chronological order; nonetheless, she varies the pacing of the action in order to create tension and add meaning to the story.

"Rules of the Game" opens with exposition; six-year-old Waverly is on a typical shopping trip with her mother. Tan describes Waverly’s family, home, and surrounding environment. These rich and quickly-presented details are important for understanding Waverly’s relationship with her mother and her life as an American-born Chinese girl growing up in San Francisco Chinatown.

Tan then slows down the narrative to focus on the object that changed Waverly’s life: her brother’s chess set. The author describes exactly how the chess set came into Waverly’s life: it was a Christmas charity gift from their church.

One of the main themes presented in the article is the question of who is in charge of our life. This is because the text presents three characters who live their lives in the best possible way, but were surprised by the force of nature, which when rising the sea level threatens to flood the city where they live. This threat completely changes the lives of these characters and it can change their destiny. Hence the question: is the destiny of the human being controlled by himself, by nature or by another element?
