Answer and Explanation:
I was only twelve. The gymnasium seemed so big, but this time it did not intimidate me. This one as well as others had intimidated me for weeks, but now I had conquered them. It had been my very first time competing in a volleyball tournament for my school, and we had won. All the nervousness and anxiety, all that yelling from the coach and teammates had been worth it. We lined up, side by side, facing the seats. My mother and younger brother were there, smiling, happy to see me happy. My mother had made a point of driving me to every single game and watching them to the very end. Somehow, it felt as if the medal I was about to receive was hers as much as it was mine.
All of a sudden, her presence was made even more important. Someone had the idea of inviting the parents onto the court to place the medals around our eager necks. No one else’s parents were there; at least for my team. I was sorry for them, but there she came. She was now everyone’s mother, giving each of my teammates their respective medals and a congratulatory hug. We were all her children for a moment, and sharing my mother had never made me happier.
NOTE: I based this in my real-life experience. Feel free to change anything in order to adapt it to your life.
Read the sentence that starts the concluding paragraph of a literary analysis essay on a quotation by F. Scott Fitzgerald. F. Scott Fitzgerald's quotation provides an important perspective on literature and its purpose. He said about literature's role, "That is part of the beauty of all literature. You discover that your longings are universal longings, that you’re not lonely and isolated from anyone. You belong." He believed that literature presents universal themes and ideas. What should be added to the paragraph to make it a strong conclusion? Select three options. A. a quotation from supporting literature B. a summary of the essay’s main points C. a commentary on the supporting evidence D. a rephrasing of the thesis E. a mention of other texts that support the thesis These answers are WRONG: https://brainly.com/question/12006133 It is not A, C, and E. It might be B, D, and E.
Answer:
B. a summary of the essay’s main points
D. a rephrasing of the thesis
E. a mention of other texts that support the thesis
Explanation:
A is incorrect. A quotation would not make it a strong conclusion by itself, but an explanation along with the quotation would help.

If you have read chapter 27 of "to kill a mockingbird" whats one word to describe that chapter and what part of chapter 27 shocked or surprised you?
Answer:
One word to describe this chapter would be revenge/ harassment (one of these if you wanna choose) because Bob Ewell begins to harass different people in the town because he is mad that Atticus took the job that Ewell wanted so this chapter is all about how Ewell takes his anger out on other people who were connected with the case before and holds a grudge against them
Explanation:
One part of the chapter that surprised me was when Bob Ewell attacks Jem and Scout on their way home in the dark. This chapter shocked me because attacking children is a horrible crime with a huge price to pay and for him willing to do that is crazy. (but in the end Boo kills Ewell) I hope this is still helpful.

Answer:
The line that reflects this theme is: "Who alterest all things with thy peering eyes."
Explanation:

Vulture, whose wings are dull realities?

Who wouldst not leave him in his wandering
To seek for treasure in the jewelled skies,
Albeit he soared with an undaunted wing?
Hast thou not dragged Diana from her car,
And driven the Hamadryad from the wood
To seek a shelter in some happier star?
Hast thou not torn the Naiad from her flood,
The Elfin from the green grass, and from me
The summer dream beneath the tamarind tree?
The line that best reflects the theme is: "Who alterest all things with thy peering eyes".
Answer:
"Who alterest all things with thy peering eyes."

Which literary devices would be most useful in a reflective essay?
2.In the context of this poem, how are we changed by love? Cite evidence from "The Raven," from your experience, and from other works of literature or art.
Answer:
Love can drive us crazy, figuratively and literally.
Explanation:
A person in love can "lose his mind", both figuratively and literally.
In The Raven we can see how the protagonist is so in love that when he loses his loved one, he goes crazy. His own thoughts haunt him as he realizes that he will never see his beloved again.
All people see our loved one as something magical or from another world, as it happens in The Raven where he describes his beloved as an angel or as it happens in Romeo and Juliet, where Romeo sees Juliet as a Sun. But when this love is not reciprocated or a misfortune happens, as in these two works, it can lead us to our own destruction.
In the context of "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe, love is portrayed as a transformative force that profoundly affects our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors.
The evidence from the poem lies in the narrator's obsessive and tormented state after the loss of his beloved Lenore. Love, in this case, changes him into a grief-stricken and melancholic figure, consumed by despair and haunted by the raven's ominous presence.
From personal experience, love has the power to uplift and inspire, bringing joy, happiness, and a sense of purpose. It can change one's perspective on life, leading to personal growth, empathy, and a deep connection with others.
In other works of literature and art, love often acts as a catalyst for transformation. It can challenge characters' beliefs, break down barriers, and inspire acts of bravery and selflessness. Examples include Romeo and Juliet's tragic love, Elizabeth Bennet's growth through love in "Pride and Prejudice," and the transformative power of love in Pablo Neruda's poetry.
