Which line in the following excerpt from Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness indicate a flashback? He paused. "Mind," he began again, lifting one arm from the elbow, the palm of the hand outwards, so that, with his legs folded before him, he had the pose of a Buddha preaching in European clothes and without a lotus-flower—"Mind, none of us would feel exactly like this. What saves us is efficiency—the devotion to efficiency. But these chaps were not much account, really. They were no colonists; their administration was merely a squeeze, and nothing more, I suspect. They were conquerors, and for that you want only brute force—nothing to boast of, when you have it, since your strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others. They grabbed what they could get for the sake of what was to be got. It was just robbery with violence, aggravated murder on a great scale, and men going at it blind—as is very proper for those who tackle a darkness. The conquest of the earth, which mostly means the taking it away from those who have a different complexion or slightly flatter noses than ourselves, is not a pretty thing when you look into it too much. What redeems it is the idea only. An idea at the back of it; not a sentimental pretense but an idea; and an unselfish belief in the idea—something you can set up, and bow down before, and offer a sacrifice to. . . ." He broke off. Flames glided in the river, small green flames, red flames, white flames, pursuing, overtaking, joining, crossing each other—then separating slowly or hastily. The traffic of the great city went on in the deepening night upon the sleepless river. We looked on, waiting patiently—there was nothing else to do till the end of the flood; but it was only after a long silence, when he said, in a hesitating voice, "I suppose you fellows remember I did once turn fresh-water sailor for a bit," that we knew we were fated, before the ebb began to run, to hear about one of Marlow's inconclusive experiences.
Answer:
"But it was only after a long silence, when he said, in a hesitating voice, "I suppose you fellows remember I did once turn fresh-water sailor for a bit," that we knew we were fated before the ebb began to run, to hear about one of Marlow's inconclusive experiences."
Explanation:
Flashback in literary terms refers to a time in a story where the narrative is taken to a point in time from the story. This is usually done to show past events to fill some crucial backstory.
From the excerpt given, a flashback is used to remind the second character how he changed careers for some time to become a freshwater sailor before fortune turned and they began to hear about Marlow's inconclusive experiences.
Answer: "But it was only after a long silence, when he said, in a hesitating voice, "I suppose you fellows remember I did once turn fresh-water sailor for a bit," that we knew we were fated before the ebb began to run, to hear about one of Marlow's inconclusive experiences."

Explanation:
In the story "A Retrieved Reformation," Detective Ben Price follows Jimmy Valentine to Elmore, Arkansas. At the end of the story, what can you infer about Jimmy Valentine’s thinking? What does he believe price aims to do at the bank? In about 50 words, explain what you can infer and support your answer with examples from your text.
Answer:
At the end of the story, Jimmy Valentine seemed to finally have a change of heart after opening a safe which was believed to be unbreakable with his "special tools" of his trade, to save a young girl stuck in the bank safe.
He believed that the policeman Price was there to take him in custody and finally be imprisoned with definite proof or evidence.
Explanation:
O. Henry's short story "A Retrieved Reformation" revolves around the story of a notorious thief Jimmy Valentine who had a change of heart after saving a young child from a locked bank safe. The end of the story shows Valentine giving up his fake identity and agreeing to go with policeman Ben Price to the station, indicating he's ready to be kept a prisoner.
He believes that Price was there to catch him red-handed as he had never been caught red-handed before in all his crimes. When he was set free from the prison, he blatantly stated that "I never broke open a safe in my life". Now that Price was there to see everything that had happened, even though he didn't rob the bank but rather saved a little girl's life, he believed that the policeman was there to arrest him now that he's seen him break open a safe with his own eyes.
He shows his resignation when he saw Ben Price, simply greeting the man with "his strange smile" and admitted "You’re here at last, are you? Let’s go. I don’t care, now."
Answer:
Detective Price arrested Jimmy in the past. Jimmy sees Price outside the bank after he opens the safe to save Annabel’s niece. Jimmy believes Price is there to arrest him for the recent bank robberies. This is evident when he tells Price, “Got around at last, have you? Well, let’s go

What theme is portrayed in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich? In reality it was just what is usually seen in the houses of people of moderate means who want to appear rich, and therefore succeed only in resembling others like themselves: there are damasks, dark wood, plants, rugs, and dull and polished bronzes—all the things people of a certain class have in order to resemble other people of that class. His house was so like the others that it would never have been noticed, but to him it all seemed to be quite exceptional. He was very happy when he met his family at the station and brought them to the newly furnished house all lit up, where a footman in a white tie opened the door into the hall decorated with plants, and when they went on into the drawing-room and the study uttering exclamations of delight. He conducted them everywhere, drank in their praises eagerly, and beamed with pleasure. A. the effect of consumerism B. the power of wealth C. keeping up appearances in society D. conforming to societal conventions

Choose a stanza from any poem, including those in this lesson. Write a paraphrase of those lines. Then compare the original stanza with the paraphrase. What has changed in the transition from poetry to prose?
Answer:
I love to write
Day and night
What would my heart do
But cry, sigh, and be blue
If I could not write
Paraphrase:
The (writer) loves to write! The writer would be very sad if they weren't able to write.
Comparison: While the Poem rhymes and used descriptive words to tell how sad the writer would be if they couldn't write (cry, sigh, be blue) the paraphrase just states clearly and simply the interpretation of the stanza.
Answer:
Here is the second stanza of "The Sparrow":
So birds of peace and hope and love
Come fluttering earthward from above,
To settle on life's window-sills,
And ease our load of earthly ills;
But we, in traffic's rush and din
Too deep engaged to let them in,
With deadened heart and sense plod on,
Nor know our loss till they are gone.
And here is a paraphrase of the stanza:
Peace, hope, and love are like birds that come fluttering down and sit upon our window sills. They try to draw our attention, but we ignore them because our lives are busy. We fail to notice that these elements are missing from our lives, but we regret that failure only when we realize that we have lost them.
The paraphrase does not have the same effect as the poem because it does not use the sound devices. It sounds like a flat statement of facts. However, the ideas gain clarity in the paraphrase.

Crisis and establish such creative tension that a community that

issue that it can no longer be ignored."

make a situation seem funny and less important
write a play or a musical about a situation
make a situation seem more important or serious
pay no attention to a situation, problem, or issue
Answer:

Explanation:
Perhaps you wanted pizza for dinner, but were out voted by the rest of the family who wanted chili. This is similar to what happens in a community. One person has to give up a right for the good of the group. Sometimes citizens' duties and rights conflict with each other. A good example is a public protest. People have the right to meet in groups and share ideas. However, a protest can disrupt traffic or other normal activities. A city must provide extra police protection to keep people safe. Therefore, the city has the right to require permission in advance for a protest. Government must make laws to balance the rights of individuals and different groups of people. To what is a family compared to in this paragraph? Voting Community Public protest Laws and rights
Answer:
Both demonstrate the downside of depending on voting to make decisions.

Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder If I could put a notion in his head: "Why do they make good neighbours? Isn't it Where there are cows? But here there are no cows. Before I built a wall I'd ask to know What I was walling in or walling out, And to whom I was like to give offence. Something there is that doesn't love a wall, That wants it down." Now read "The Pasture," also by Robert Frost. I’m going out to clean the pasture spring; I’ll only stop to rake the leaves away (And wait to watch the water clear, I may): I shan’t be gone long.—You come too. I’m going out to fetch the little calf That’s standing by the mother. It’s so young, It totters when she licks it with her tongue. I shan’t be gone long.—You come too. Which best accounts for the different views of spring expressed in the poems?
Answer:
The poems have different speakers.
Explanation:
This question is incomplete. According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:
Frost’s opinions changed through time. The poems have different speakers. Frost’s speakers represent his own views. The poems were written at different locations.In this question, we see two different poems written by the same author, Robert Frost. In the first poem, Frost talks about the building of a wall, and how this is perceived not only by the person building the wall, but by others. In the second case, Frost talks about a calf, and how this symbolizes the beginning of the spring. The views that are expressed about spring are different because the speakers in the poem are different as well. Therefore, they each focus on different elements of spring.
Answer:
B the poems have different speakers

What separates or segregates people from one another? What brings them together?
Use a personal example. What separated people from one another in the novel? What
brought them together? Use textual evidence (page numbers and direct quotes from
the book)
Answer:
I'll answer as best as i can..
Explanation:
General seperation of a group of people is caused by things like: race, religion, age, and skin color. Most of the time, what brings groups of peopple together is their similarities. Such as if the people belong to the same sorority or club. Or even if a group of people all agree on something. For example, rioters were brought together solely on the basis of their collected opinion: That George Floyd should be avenged.
Read the excerpt from "The Royal House of Thebes."
Antigone and Ismene heard with horror what Creon had
decided. To Ismene, shocking as it was, overwhelming
her with anguish for the pitiful dead body and the
lonely, homeless soul, it seemed, nevertheless, that
nothing could be done except to acquiesce [to accept
without protest]. She and Antigone were utterly alone.
All Thebes was exulting that the man who had brought
war upon them should be thus terribly punished. "We
are women," she told her sister. "We must obey. We
have no strength to defy the State." "Choose your own
part," Antigone said. "I go to bury the brother I love."
"You are not strong enough," Ismene cried. "Why, then
when my strength fails, " Antigone answered, "I will give
up." She left her sister, Ismene dared not follow her.
How does Antigone's action as a rebel reveal the
universal theme?
It shows that she is tired of being alone, revealing
that loneliness is difficult for people to handle.
It shows that she can break the rules for her
principles, revealing that women are as capable as
men.
It shows that she does not side with her sister,
revealing that families should stick together.
It shows that she pities Ismene, revealing that
understanding leads to right action.
The correct answer is B. It shows that she can break the rules for her principles, revealing that women are as capable as men.
Explanation:
In the excerpt presented, it is described how Antigone opposes the actions of Creon as he wants to stop Antigone and her sister from burying his brother. Indeed, even if Ismene (Antigone's sister) expresses they must obey "We are women...We must obey", Antigone decides to break the rules and disobey "I go to bury the brother I love" inspired by love and own principles. These actions indirectly show the reader women can break the rules and be as strong as men. According to this, the universal theme (underlying idea understood in cultures around the word) expressed when Antigone breaks the rules is i"women are as capable as men" (Option B).
