Read the following excerpt from Memoirs and Portraits by Robert Louis Stevenson, then find the correct answer:
And all the while I was aware that this life of sea-bathing and sun-burning was for me but a holiday. In that year cannon were roaring for days together on French battlefields; and I would sit in my isle (I call it mine, after the use of lovers) and think upon the war, and the loudness of these far-away battles, and the pain of the men's wounds, and the weariness of their marching. And I would think too of that other war which is as old as mankind, and is indeed the life of man: the unsparing war, the grinding slavery of competition; the toil of seventy years, dear-bought bread, precarious honour, the perils and pitfalls, and the poor rewards. It was a long look forward; the future summoned me as with trumpet calls, it warned me back as with a voice of weeping and beseeching; and I thrilled and trembled on the brink of life, like a childish bather on the beach. There was another young man on Earraid in these days, and we were much together, bathing, clambering on the boulders, trying to sail a boat and spinning round instead in the oily whirlpools of the roost. But the most part of the time we spoke of the great uncharted desert of our futures; wondering together what should there befall us; hearing with surprise the sound of or own voices in the empty vestibule of youth. As far, and as hard, as it seemed then to look forward to the grave, so far it seems now to look backward upon these emotions; so hard to recall justly that loath submission, as of the sacrificial bull, with which we stooped our necks under the yoke of destiny. I met my old companion but the other day; I cannot tell of course what he was thinking; but, upon my part, I was wondering to see us both so much at home, and so composed and sedentary in the world; and how much we had gained, and how much we had lost, to attain to that composure; and which had been upon the whole our best estate: when we sat there prating sensibly like men of some experience, or when we shared our timorous and hopeful counsels in a western islet.

What does Stevenson think about in the first paragraph?

Two real wars from his parents' past that had waged for a long time
A real war and a "war" of learning to fall in love and get married
Two fictional wars from books he had read on his vacation
A real war and a "war" of fighting to grow old and successful

Answers

Answer:

A real war and a "war" of fighting to grow old and successful

Explanation:

Based on the excerpt, Robert Louis Stevenson was reminiscing about his days as a younger man and the internal conflicts he had.

In the first paragraph, he talked about the real war he witnessed where he heard the "loudness" of the battles and the "pain of men's wounds". He also talked about another internal "war" which had to do with "slavery of competition", toiling for years and which culminated to fighting to be old and successful.

HOW DOES EPIC HERO BEOWULF CONFRONT AND DEFEAT EVIL?

Answers

Answer:

Beowulf confronted three demonic beasts, Grendel, his mother, and the Dragon without sparing a thought for his own life.  In the epic poem of the same title, Beowulf is depicted as an epic hero, who fights and kills Grendel and stops him from killing any more of Hrothgar's men.  This courageous confrontation with a demonic beast proves Beowulf's great loyalty and love to Hrothgar and his people.

On his own part as an epic hero, Beowulf shows that he is a brave, loyal, responsible, and strong warrior-leader by risking his life for the greater good and glory of his people and his kingdom.  He utilized his great courage, inhuman strength, and faith to also defeat Grendel’s mother, who fought to revenge her son's death, by using the sword that Grendel’s mother kept at her disposal, but was unable to use.  He had earlier defeated Grendel himself and later he also defeated the Dragon.  By traveling great “distances to prove his strength at impossible odds against supernatural demons and beasts,” Beowulf proves that he is indeed an epic hero.

Explanation:

The poem "Beowulf " (c1200) dates back to a very different era.  But, the poem gives modern day readers a historical view of Anglo-Saxon life.  It also emphasizes universal human characteristics and themes of life that are still relevant to the modern day readers.  For instance, it teaches readers that Anglo-Saxons believe in revenge and battle more than life because life is fleeting, but fame is not.

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question, with the underline words.

Match the underlined word in each verse to its meaning in the context of the poem

the rhythm of a piece of poetry or music

a silly or foolish person

meaning, weight, or significance

reward

a small stream

1. "In which the burthen of the mystery, / In which the heavy and the  weary weight of all this unintelligible world, / Is lightened:"

(from "Tintern Abbey" by William Wordsworth)

2. "Faint I, nor mourn nor murmur, other gifts / Have followed; for such loss, I would believe, / Abundant recompence"

(from "Tintern Abbey" by William Wordsworth)

3. "Hold offl unhand me, grey-beard loon!"

(from "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge)

4. "nor yet beside the rill, Nor up the lawn, nor at the wood was he;"

(from "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard" by Thomas Gray)

5. "Where was heard the mingled measure. From the fountain and the caves."

(from "Kubla Khan" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge)

Answer:

burthen - meaning, weight, or significance

recompence - reward

loon - a silly of foolish person

rill - a small stream

measure - the rhythm of a piece of poetry or music

Explanation:

Burthen is an archaic form of spelling "burden". When we think of a burden, we think of something heavy, difficult to carry around. Therefore, burthen means "weight"

Recompence is more commonly spelled "recompense" nowadays. It is the same as reward.

A loon is a foolish or silly person. We can think of a "loony", a crazy or silly person, someone who does not think or see things the way others do.

A rill is, by definition, a small stream or brook. There is not much we can add here.

Finally, measure refers to the rhythm of a poem or a piece of music. We commonly refer to it by "meter" or simply "rhythm", depending on what we mean.

Which use of symbolism in the story most suggests that the narrator feels stressed in the passage

Answers

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"It is impossible to say how the idea first entered my head. There was no reason for what I did. I did not hate the old man; I even loved him. He had never hurt me. I did not want his money. I think it was his eye. His eye was like the eye of a vulture, the eye of one of those terrible birds that watch and wait while an animal dies, and then fall upon the dead body and pull it to pieces to eat it. When the old man looked at me with his vulture eye a cold feeling went up and down my back; even my blood became cold. And so, I finally decided I had to kill the old man and close that eye forever!”

The Tell-Tale Heart, by Edgar Allan Poe.

Which use of symbolism in the story most suggests that the narrator feels stressed in this passage?

A. The exclamation points  B. The repetition of the word "eye"  C. The lack of dialogue D. The mention of gold

Answer:

B. The repetition of the word "eye"

Explanation:

The repetition of the word "eye" in this passage shows how disturbed and nervous the character is to the point that he only thinks about it. He does not use the word "eye" to justify the reason for his nervousness and to show that it was because of this nervousness, this tension and this imbalance that the eye caused, that he committed all the crime he did.

In other words, the repetition of the word "eye" in this excerpt refers to the manic state and the character's fixation is the source of all the nervousness he expresses.

Explain how Kim’s heritage influences his relationships with the people he encounters, including his friends. What does Kim think about the British who live in India? Use text from the excerpt you read to support your answers.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Kim’s heritage influences his relationships with the people he encounters, including his friends in that he was born in Europe, so he has different genes that the people from India so his personality is different. However, he has been living in India for many years and he understands the culture of this territory that in those years was ruled bu the British government. He knows how to relate with the people from India and the people from Britain although he has always believed that the English people are superior. The contradiction is that the has differences with the British who live in India because he knows so well the native men and women from India. He knows what the Indians think of the white British and why they are reluctant to the British. So he developed traits that make him more fond of the Indians than the British.

The novel "Kim" was written by English author Rudyard Kipling in 1900. In this novel, Kipling makes a precise description of the culture, traditions, customs, and beliefs of the Indian people.

Answer:

Kim's identity is particularly complicated. He is European by birth, but he has been immersed the culture of India his whole life. Kim displays the traits of both the British and the Indians, but he considers the British superior to the natives, as seen in this interaction with an Indian friend: “There was some justification for Kim—he had kicked Lala Dinanath's boy off the trunnions—since the English held the Punjab and Kim was English.”

However, Kim is not comfortable with the idea of interacting with Europeans, partly because of the kind of life he leads:

As he reached the years of indiscretion, he learned to avoid missionaries and white men of serious aspect who asked who he was, and what he did. For Kim did nothing with an immense success. . . . [and] missionaries and secretaries of charitable societies could not see the beauty of [what he did].

Kim avoids British men and women who live in India. Since he has grown up with the natives, he shares their mistrust of the Europeans.

In return, the Magician gave him three brass pennies that can make his wishes come true.

C. They nearly lose everything but learn to value one another.
D. Outlaws attack their homestead; a stranger rescues them.

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

In order for the story shown above to qualify as a modernist literature, it is necessary that the characters' difficulties continue even with the changes they made, since in real life, problems are not resolved so easily. In this case, the letter B is your correct answer.

Modernist authors used to politicize their stories and show narratives less idealistic and more centered on reality. Therefore, the characters' problems shown in the question above, would not be solved with a simple change.

While this change could have small benefits, the characters' problems would continue until they worked directly to resolve them.

Modernism was a literary movement that started in Europe and quickly spread across the American continent. The main features of this movement were:

Experimentation.Individualism.Absurdity.Daily account.Politicization.Irony.Formalism.

With that, we can conclude that the story shown in the question above would be developed through the characters' search for the solution of their problems. This solution would be complex, but it would allow them to have real changes in their lives.

do we really have freedom of expression essay on it?
plz reply asap?​

Answers

Answer:

We can point out that freedom of expression is particularly important nowadays. The current generation is addicted to expressing their opinion, to saying what they do not like or do not like. We can say that we have freedom of expression.

Freedom of expression is the fundamental right of man to say what he thinks. It is a natural right, which belongs to the essence of the human being, as well as the right to life, to dignity, being probably the most important right for the functioning of a free and democratic society.

At the individual level, freedom of expression is a necessary condition for the development, fulfillment, and dignity of each person. This right helps us to know and better understand the world we live in, through the free exchange of ideas and information with our fellow human beings.

Freedom of expression is important not only as a right, but also because it is essential for the observance of other fundamental rights (access to information, political freedom, religious freedom, the rights of national minorities, sex).

Without free expression there is no exchange of ideas, there is no public debate, there is no possibility to inform ourselves, to choose, to express ourselves artistically. Our daily choices, the way we dress, the music we listen to, the books we read, the media we are informed about, are all expressions of the right to free speech.

Totalitarian regimes (communism, fascism, Nazism, religious dictatorships) have been (and still are in some countries) the most hostile to this right. Restrictions imposed by law and abuses by the authorities concerned both political freedom of expression (banning opposition parties, restricting the right to association and public assemblies, sanctioning criticism of the government), and other manifestations of freedom of expression, such as cultural ones. artistic, sports.

For many historical periods, the world has been persecuted and has not been able to express its opinion, opinion, knowledge. There would be many examples: the ability of women to vote, the restriction of freedom of expression during communism (before 1989 in European countries and Russia). We are a "modern" generation addicted to expressing our opinions and expressing ourselves.

[1] Bacchus, on a certain occasion, found his old schoolmaster and foster-father, Silenus, missing. The old man had been drinking, and in that state wandered away, and was found by some peasants, who carried him to their king, Midas. Midas recognized him, and treated him hospitably, entertaining him for ten days and nights with an unceasing round of jollity. [2] On the eleventh day he brought Silenus back, and restored him in safety to his pupil. Whereupon Bacchus offered Midas his choice of a reward, whatever he might wish. He asked that whatever he might touch should be changed into gold. Bacchus consented, though sorry that he had not made a better choice. [3] Midas went his way, rejoicing in his new-acquired power, which he hastened to put to the test. He could scarce believe his eyes when he found a twig of an oak, which he plucked from the branch, become gold in his hand. He took up a stone; it changed to gold. He touched a sod; it did the same. He took up an apple from the tree; you would have thought he had robbed the garden of the Hesperides. His joy knew no bounds, and as soon as he got home, he ordered the servants to set a splendid repast on the table. Then he found to his dismay that whether he touched bread, it hardened in his hand; or put a morsel to his lip, it defied his teeth. He took a glass of wine, but it flowed down his throat like melted gold. [4] In consternation at the unprecedented affliction, he strove to divest himself of his power; he hated the gift he had lately coveted. But all in vain; starvation seemed to await him. He raised his arms, all shining with gold, in prayer to Bacchus, begging to be delivered from his glittering destruction. Bacchus, merciful deity, heard and consented. "Go," said he, "to River Pactolus, trace its fountain-head, there plunge yourself and body in, and wash away your fault and its punishment." He did so, and scarce had he touched the waters before the gold-creating power passed into them, and the river sands became changed into gold, as they remain to this day. Select two key details that could be included in a summary of the myth. Bacchus granted Midas's wish to have the golden touch. Bacchus sometimes found his teacher Silenus missing. Midas entertained Silenus in his kingdom for ten days. Midas received a wish for returning Silenus to Bacchus. Silenus was found by peasants and carried to Midas.
