"The Masque of the Red Death" is a small story written by Edgar Allan Poe that was first released in 1842.
What is the theme of the story?The fundamental theme of "The Masque of the Red Death" is death's inevitability, or maybe more precisely, its inescapability. Prospero and his comrades try to isolate themselves from the rest of the world in order to avoid the dreadful illness (the "red death") that is destroying the countryside.
Thus, Option D is correct.

Read the following passage from Act I, scene ii of The Tempest, in which Prospero summons Caliban.
PROSPERO . . . Come on;
We'll visit Caliban my sIave, who never
YieIds us kind answer.
MIRANDA
'Tis a viIIain, sir,
I do not love to look on.
PROSPERO
But, as 'tis,
We cannot miss him: he does make our fire,
Fetch in our wood and serves in offices
That profit us. What, h0! sIave! CaIiban!
Thou earth, thou! speak.
CALIBAN
[Within] There's wood enough within.
PROSPERO
Come forth, I say! there's other business for thee:
Come, thou tortoise! when?
(. . .)
Thou poisonous slave, got by the devil himself
Upon thy wicked danm, come forth!
From the passage, identify words and phrases that refer to Caliban. Then, analyze how the choice of words shapes readers' first impression of Caliban and shows Prospero and Miranda's attitude toward him. Be sure to use details from the passage to support your analysis.
Answer:
Themes of Colonialism present in this passage:
Fatherhood
Caliban sees Prospero as a fatherly figure, if you come to think of it, Fathers colonize children in as much as they have power over them, over what they eat, what they learn, where they live and so forth.
"When thou cames first, thou strokeds me and madest much of me, wouldst give me water with berries in't, and teach me how to name the bigger light (....) and then I love thee" In this phrase we can see that Caliban was first treated with love by Prospero because he fed him (with water with berries, like a special treat) and taught him how to name the sun (the bigger light).
Territory
When Caliban grows up, he realizes that Prospero was not like a father, he becomes aware of the fact that Prospero is the colonizer that took what belong to Caliban (His island).
"The island's mine, by Sycorax my mother, which thou takest from me"
What Caliban means here is that the Island has always been his by right, because it belong to his mother, and he accuses Prospero of taking it from him. This is what happens with Colonizers, they take a land (and the people that live in it) although they have no right over it, but from their position of power they dominate the Colonized.
Slavery
Prospero is mad because he believes that Caliban is his slave and that he is not capable of doing good things, because he is less than a human being. "Abhorred slave, Which any print of goodness wilt not take, Being capable of all ill"
Language
Prosperos is also angry because he claims that it was hard work for him to teach Caliban to speak "Took pains to make thee speak, taught thee each hour one thing or other..."
This is interesting because colonized populations have a language of their own, so there is nothing generous about Colonizers teaching the colonized to speak. In fact, language is a tool that is used by Colonizers to control the Colonized.
Through language people can be controlled and their identity is also distorted when they use a language that is not their own. Caliban recognizes that Prospero knows how to name things (as we stated at the beginning) but notice how he calls Caliban in different parts of this extract you included: "Abhorred slave" , "Savage" , "a thing most brutish" "Thou vile race" In this way, we see that Caliban wants to get rid of the identity Prospero ascribed to him, but at the same time he can't fight against the power of the Colonizer (that is, Prospero)
Caliban's answer to this insults is: "You taught me language; and my profit on't is that I know how to curse. The red plague rid you for learning me language!" This means (literally) for the only thing that your language is helpful to me is to insult you (the red plague rid you! is an insult) But from the point of view of literary criticism, we see that Caliban is using the language that was originally used to control him, to fight against the control of Prospero. So, the same weapon that the Colonizer used to exert power over the Colonized, the latter uses it to fight against his control.

It tests their attention and intelligence, especially when something within the plot contradicts what the narrator has stated.

ome kids think that drugs are healthy. “Vaping is good for you” because it doesn’t do anything. “Weed is good for you” because it helps you calm down and forget. These are perfect examples as to why they are not good. Vaping damages your lungs and can give your body cancer. Over time, smoking weed may cause chronic cough and other health issues. Both vaping, weed, cigarettes, alcohol, and many more drugs are not good for you or your body.
Drugs are used across the world. Whether they are used properly or abused. Drugs are easy to become addicted to. They can cause substance abuse, which leads to jail time. While drugs also heal people, for example, prescription drugs when used properly are beneficial. They need to be used in restraint because even medically given to you, they are addictive. For example, pain-reducing opioids, though they are helpful they are addictive. All minds are affected; it's not just a teenager thing. Drugs should be monitored by someone, and while it is slightly out-of-pocket, it's a lot better than spending possible years in prison.
Vaping may be a little better than weed or cigarettes but it still harms your body in multiple ways. It causes you to crave and if you don’t follow that craving it will lead to withdrawal symptoms. Nicotine is an addictive chemical. It is a toxic substance. It raises your blood pressure and spikes your adrenaline, which then increases your heart rate. Increased heart rate can conclude to having a heart attack.
An abundance of alcohol can harm the liver. This can lead to hepatitis, which is the buildup of scar tissue that eventually destroys the organ. Alcohol may cause kidney, bladder, and prostate inflammation. Alcohol is also an addictive substance, though alcohol may relieve pain and make you forget things, too much will make you drunk and incoherent.
Opioids are a class of drugs used to reduce pain. Prescription opioids can be prescribed by doctors to treat moderate to severe pain, but can also have serious risks and side effects. Common types are oxycodone (OxyContin), hydrocodone (Vicodin), morphine, and methadone. Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid pain reliever.

yup
Explanation:
Answer:
Your Right ^^ ( wait... )Explanation:
Nothing has to be done actively, ( wait what ) I have just thought about this and I think that nothing has to be done in an active voice, like if you're mute. But, if you did nothing in an active voice, would you be able to understand anything? You wouldn't be able to talk or sign language. I don't know if this is a real concept to look into but I think it's pretty interesting. If you don't have an active voice or if you aren't active, how will you live? If you aren't active, or actively talking, then you can't really talk. I mean, you can talk here, but will you ever be able to understand the real world if you're not talking with your active voice your whole life? I hope you understand this and umm, cya! ^^

Answer:

2. Without ceasing, she gripped her controller in her hands and dominated her video games all day long. - b. Mature Writing
3. For what had the quality of time interminable, she toiled merrily at her digital amusement. - a. Overuse of Thesaurus
Explanation:
Let's take a look at each sentence.
Sentence number 1 uses a very simple vocabulary. In a sense, there is nothing special about it. No vivid descriptions, no word choice to help us picture the actions or sense the feelings. Therefore, it is an example of immature writing.
Sentence 2 is the opposite of 1. It uses more complex and descriptive words. Instead of simply saying "she played video games", the author makes it an action really worth telling with "she gripped her controller in her hands and dominated her video games." It sounds more exciting, and we can see her, the character, in action. Therefore, number 2 is an example of mature writing.
Finally, sentence 3 goes to an extreme when it comes to the use of complex or unusual words. It seems as if the author wanted to sound smart, so he/she exaggerated in the use of the Thesaurus. That, as a matter of fact, makes it much more difficult to comprehend the message being conveyed.
Answer:
She played video games all day long without stopping - Immature writing
Without ceasing, she gripped her controller in her hands and dominated her video games all day long - Mature Writing
or what had the quality of time interminable, she toiled merrily at her digital amusement - Overuse of the Thesaurus
Explanation:
She played video games all day long without stopping.
A) Immature Writing
Explanation: While this is a complete sentence, this is generally only accepted in casual sentences, and is not used for formal writings.
B) Mature Writing
Without ceasing, she gripped her controller in her hands and dominated her video games all day long.
Explanation: While this is not a casual writing, it doesn't overuse any "high-class" words that very few know. This is the right sentence to use in many stories or essays.
C) Overuse of the Thesaurus
For what had the quality of time interminable, she toiled merrily at her digital amusement.
Explanation: This sentence uses the Thesaurus too much, for many of the words used are not "every-day" words, and is most likely a "bigger" word found in the Thesaurus.

Answer:
Life likely had a slower, steadier pace during the Middle Ages than it does now.
Explanation:
The way we live today is very different from the way people live in the middle ages. In the Middle Ages things were more constant and harmonious, as there were not as many factors changing the universe, as we have today. At that time, communication was slow, technology was archaic, relations between people were smaller and daily life, although dynamic, was more constant, slow and less stressful than today.
Human evolution and passing the years have made our lives faster, in relation to the Middle Ages, but it has also brought us stress, rush and frantic and fast everyday life.
