Why did Mark Twain begin his story with a warning and explanation in the beginning?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Twain greets readers with a "NOTICE" before he steps aside and allows Huck Finn to narrate the story. The following narrative, Twain warns, should not be analyzed for "motive" or "moral" or "plot" or punishment will follow. In the Explanatory, Twain notifies readers that characters will sound as if they live in the region in which the story takes place.

Explanation:

These statements serve three purposes. First, the warning is a satiric jab at the sentimental literary style, which was in direct contrast to Twain's brand of literary realism. Second, the warning introduces the use of satire, a harsh and biting brand of humor that readers will continue to see in the novel. Finally, the warning is a convenient method by which to ward off literary critics who might be eager to dissect Twain's work. Twain recognizes, no doubt, that his novel will incite controversy.

The mistake in the first one is the apostrophe. It should just be “hot dogs.” And the second on should be soccer team’s.

Answers

Answer:

The sentence that is correctly punctuated is:

After the morning rains cease, the swimmers emerge from their cottages.

Explanation:

Let's look at each sentence individually to find the problems.

1. On the display screen, was a soothing pattern of light and shadow. --> The comma is separating the subject and the verb, which should never be done. This sentence is INCORRECT.

2. After the morning rains cease, the swimmers emerge from their cottages. --> This sentence is CORRECT. The comma is separating the ideas expressed in the different clauses.

3. Some first-year architecture students, expect to design intricate structures immediately. --> Again, we have a comma separating the subject and the verb. This is INCORRECT

4. Shade-loving plants such as, begonias, impatiens, and coleus can add color to a shady garden. --> When using "such as", we should not place a comma right before the first item to be listed. Therefore, there shouldn't be a comma before "begonias". This is INCORRECT

I think love begins by taking care of the love ones at home because you start to have a bond with the people you take care of and associate with over time, your loved ones are the people you treasure and should always be the people you take care of when they are sick or feelings down and etc. People try to find love in other cases by finding people who act just like the people they love at home and they treat the people who they are with the same as the people who they grew up with, they take care of them the same way , Love them differently but mostly the same & They grow up together as well in most cases.

HELP!! What are three themes of to kill a mocking bird and what evidence shows it

Answers

Answer:

The novel To Kill a Mockingbird, written by Harper Lee in 1960, is an American literary classic, and recounts the life of a girl in the context of the Deep South of the early-1930s, when racial segregation towards African Americans was on the rise.

Thus, the three most important themes that this novel develops are:

- Racism and racial segregation, as the novel takes place in Alabama, which was one of the epicenters of segregation in the context of the Jim Crow Laws sanctioned after Reconstruction.

-Injustice, as Tom Robinson is accused and blamed for a crime he did not commit, for the simple reason of being a person with black skin.

-Ethics, as the girl's father, Atticus Finch, is a lawyer who defends African Americans in a totally hostile context towards them and their work, putting their reputation and even their safety at risk.

A Closer Look at Minimus's Poem
Stanza 2 is clearly trying to make Napoleon out to be a god. Explain how in at least 2-3 complete sentences.
Animal farm

Answers

Answer:

It is true that Minimus's poem tries to make Napoleon out to be a god.

Explanation:

'Animal Farm' is a novel written by George Orwell.The novel is a fable picturizing the Russian Revolution of 1917.

In Chapter 8, when Napoleon took over the office of 'Leadership', Minimus wrote a poem in his honor. In his poem, he portrayed Napoleon out to be god.

His poem, in second stanza, said

'Thou are the giver of

All that thy creatures love,

Full belly twice a day, clean straw to roll upon;

Every beast great or small

Sleeps at peace in his stall,

Thou watchest over all,

Comrade Napoleon!'

By stating that  Napoleon looks over all of his creature and they sleep in peace in his stall, Minimus's poem is picturizing Napoleon to be god. Just like God watches over all His creation, and they sleep in peace in His stall, Minimus picturized Napoleon in the same picture.

Answers

Answer:

Though the conflict between the United States and Iraq is ongoing, America is working to D. rebuild Iraq.

Explanation:

Even if we did not watch or read the news, this question can be easily answered just by using general knowledge and common sense. We know the United States are not a country that condones with authoritarian regimes or with colonizing practices. Thus, we can easily eliminate options B and C. As for overthrowing the government in Iraq, as is said in letter A, that may have been necessary at a certain point in the past, but not anymore. Therefore, we are left with letter D. Iraq needs to be rebuilt after devastating wars. And America has made the commitment to help rebuild it. Letter D is the correct option.

Common nouns: train, sun, superhero, planet, kitchen, animal, car, boy, pig, secretary, pen, airline

Proper nouns: California, Park Avenue, Sun, John, Jupiter, Toyota, Europe, Batman, Egypt, Disneyland, November, Atlantic Ocean, K-mart

Explanation:

Common nouns are used to name any person, place, thing, or idea. In this case, the named entity is generic. For example, the word planet is a common noun. These nouns are not capitalized unless they are the first word of the sentence.

Proper nouns name of specific people, places, things, or ideas. For example, Jupiter, which is a specific planet, is a proper noun. Unlike common nouns, proper nouns are always be capitalized.

However, some nouns can be both common and proper depending on the context. An example of such a noun is sun. Just like the words moon and earth, sun isn't capitalized unless it's used in the astronomical context.

1. Molly and James often argue. We learned that stress in a parent's life can result in abusive behaviours. How might parental arguing be considered a form of child abuse? What kind of abuse is this? How might this affect a child in the future? Please I need help

Answers

Well, for starters if the parents start hitting the child because of the lack of peace from stress then that would be considered physical abuse. However, if the parents abuses the child mentally by saying harsh things then that’s mental abuse. So, to answer your question, this would be considered as mental abuse. This will affect the child to be much more afraid in life if they do something wrong and it could also affect the way that they treat their future kids. Then, there would be a pattern on and on and this would never stop unless they seek help.

I hope this answer helps!

Answer:

Well, if the parents are always fighting, then they will tend to get aggressive, or they will want to take their anger out on somebody else. Also- it could be considered child abuse because the kids will get used to hearing their parents fight all the time, and think that that's okay. The children will think it's okay to abuse their kids, so they'll do it to them too, and so will their kids, and their kids, and so on... The children will always have that memory of their parents arguing and fighting and abusing, so it may make them depressed even. So basically, bad actions can turn into bad results.

Either in a negative way or positive way, we all have our own stories to tell about our experiences. It could change ourselves, others, or the world. No matter what, many people will change, either negatively or positively. Which could be a pro, and a con. So, lastly... Experiences are very important to life, and many are different, although the same thing with all, is that it's all in the social area.

The greasers are sort of like the gangsters, there not rich, they have messy/greasy hair (which is where they get their nickname), and they're tough. The Socs are the rich kids, the act mean and selfish and they think that they are better than the greasers. The main source of tension between these two groups is how they're not able to fully understand each other, they always act tough and mean around each other. The two groups really aren't so different, besides money-wise, and all they needed was to get to know one another to become friends.
