What is the connotative meaning of the word benighted in Robert Frost's poem "Desert Places"? Hint: It isn't A.

A. Darkness
B. Doubt
C. Innocence
D. Purity

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B). Doubt

Explanation:

The word 'benighted' stands for 'to darken or overtaken by obscurity' in literal terms. In the poem 'Desert Places' authored by Robert Frost, the central idea of loneliness is discovered throughout the four stanzas. In the third stanza, the use of the word 'benighted' connotes 'the doubt' that the speaker is undergoing regarding that whether his loneliness would increases or it will be less. Thus, option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Read this excerpt from “The Medicine Bag.” “He carefully prepared for his quest with a purifying sweat bath, and then he went alone to a high butte top to fast and pray. After three days he received his sacred dream—in which he found, after long searching, the white man’s iron. He did not understand his vision of finding something belonging to the white people, for in that time they were the enemy. When he came down from the butte to cleanse himself at the stream below, he found the remains of a campfire and the broken shell of an iron kettle. This was a sign that reinforced his dream. He took a piece of the iron for his medicine bag, which he had made of elk skin years before, to prepare for his quest. “He returned to his village, where he told his dream to the wise old men of the tribe. They gave him the name Iron Shell, but neither did they understand the meaning of the dream. The first Iron Shell kept the piece of iron with him at all times and believed it gave him protection from the evils of those unhappy days. “Then a terrible thing happened to Iron Shell. He and several other young men were taken from their homes by the soldiers and sent far away to a white man’s boarding school. He was angry and lonesome for his parents and the young girl he had wed before he was taken away. At first Iron Shell resisted the teacher’s attempts to change him, and he did not try to learn. One day it was his turn to work in the school’s blacksmith shop. As he walked into the place, he knew that his medicine had brought him there to learn and work with the white man’s iron. “Iron Shell became a blacksmith and worked at the trade when he returned to the reservation. All of his life he treasured the medicine bag.” What is symbolic about the piece of the iron that Iron Shell keeps in his medicine bag? It represents a mixing of two cultures. It explains how Iron Shell became a blacksmith. It represents a young man giving up on his traditions. It explains the history of the reservation

Answers

Answer:

I believe the answer is "It represents the mixing of two cultures"

Explanation:

When Iron Shell found the piece of iron and was confused about the meaning and wasn't sure why a white mans possession would be of importance to him.  When Iron shell went to the boarding school he resented the white people and did not want to have anything to do with the place or people because white men were of his culture's enemy. He realizes that the piece of iron led him to be a black smith and work with the white man's iron. So in the end Iron Shell had mixed his culture with the white man's culture by being black smith, and the iron shell piece is what led him there.

Answer:

The answer should be, it represents the mixing of two cultures, or A

Answer:

Fables often portray animals as less compassionate than humans but more clever.

Explanation:
It is a claim and an opinion:
Opinion: "Less compassionate than humans"
That is not necessarily always true but it is an opinion.

Claim: "Fables often portray animals as less compassionate than humans"
It is a claim/reason you would say if you were talking about a claim because it tells a reason and there is a real part about that reason so you're not just making it your opinion.
