Describe two examples of rising action events in The Golden Touch by Nathaniel Hawthorne
the story is attached at the end if needed~~
Answer:
Midas turns the flowers of the garden into gold.
Midas' daughter is upset because the flowers are no longer beautiful.
Explanation:
The rising action in a story refers to the events that follow the exposition. During the exposition, we are first introduced to the characters of the story, as well as to background information. On the other hand, in the rising action, we see a series of incidents and events that begin to create tension in the story. These events build up emotion until they reach the climax.
The rising action of this story occurs between the moment in which Midas receives his wish and when he embraces his daughter (the climax). In this section of the story, Midas turns the flowers of the garden into gold. He believes this make them look better. However, his daughter is upset because she believes this makes them less special. This shows how Midas does not understand the important things in life, which moves the plot forward.

Explanation:
How did the fact that people began living longer in the colonies affect
attitudes toward labor?
O. A. It increased the value of owning slaves over hiring indentured
servants.
B. It led to laws controlling the number of workers.
C. It led to laws protecting the health of slaves and indentured
servants.
O D. It increased a feeling of kinship among classes.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Before people started living longer most of the indentured servants died before they could collect their payment or land, so the people who hired them wouldn't have to pay anything. When people started living longer their owners had to then pay for their service, so they started owning slaves instead.

Assignment
Do Not Go Gentle
You will now work through Dylan Thomas’s “Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night” stanza by stanza, answering questions as you go.
First Stanza
1. What image in the words “burn and rave” suggest? Why should someone “burn and rave at close of day?”
2. The word rage can mean “anger,” but it can also mean “passion”—an outpouring of feeling. How might Thomas have been using both meanings in the poem?
Second Stanza
3. Though the wise men might “know” that it is time to die, the speaker says that they still fight death because “their words had forked no lightning.” What does this mean?
4. What images do you see in this stanza?
Third Stanza
5. These good people cry “how bright their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay.” What does this mean?
6. What imagery do you see in this stanza?
Fourth Stanza
7. How might these people have “sang the sun in flight” and then “grieved” it?
8. What imagery do you see in this stanza?
Fifth Stanza
9. What images do you see in stanza 5?
Sixth Stanza
10. Why do all these men not go gently into death?
11. What role do light and darkness play in the poem?
Answer:
Explanation:
1. "burn and rave" suggest Hell to me. Also suggest a fight for life, like getting out of a burning building: the dying or sick body or life could be likened to a burning building. Burning and raving at close of day is like saying fighting against death.
2. The dying man is angry that he's dying. He's angry that he couldn't do more in his life. He's passionate, he loves his family, his life, his son (who is writing the poem) and he's fighting for his life. the last stanza especially shows how his son is pleading with him to fight for life.
3. Their words had forked no lightning means that they hadn't made a difference really. they hadn't caused great social change like the firebrand MLK or Rachel Carson, they hadn't used their smarts to better humanity.
4. words had forked no lightning is pretty good imagery
5. If the world had been perfect they might have mattered more
6. danced in a green bay
7. celebrated things without knowing what they truly were, not appreciated things while they had them (like youth)
"grieved it" - were sad when things ended that they weren't ready to let go.
8. wild men, caught, sang, sun in flight, grieved it on its way
9. grave men - used two ways: serious, and near death.
blinding sight
blaze like meteors
10. They are sad to leave their loved ones behind
11. they represent life and death. dying of the light = dying of the man
First Stanza
1. What image in the words “burn and rave” suggest? Why should someone “burn and rave at close of day?”
Author tries to deliver the idea that life is priceless and worth fighting for and getting old is a disease that has to be cured.
2. The word rage can mean “anger,” but it can also mean “passion”—an outpouring of feeling. How might Thomas have been using both meanings in the poem?
He hates something with the passion.
Second Stanza
3. Though the wise men might “know” that it is time to die, the speaker says that they still fight death because “their words had forked no lightning.” What does this mean?
This means that even though they know that they're eventually going to die, they don't want to until they have done something that's impacted the world in a big way, causing them to fight against death.
4. What images do you see in this stanza?
Third Stanza
5. These good people cry “how bright their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay.” What does this mean?
If the world had been perfect they might have mattered more
6. What imagery do you see in this stanza?
Danced in a green bay
Fourth Stanza
7. How might these people have “sang the sun in flight” and then “grieved” it?
celebrated things without knowing what they truly were, not appreciated things while they had them (like youth)
“grieved it" - were sad when things ended that they weren't ready to let go.
8. What imagery do you see in this stanza?
wild men, caught, sang, sun in flight, grieved it on its way

I had started my research on the mines with the goal of writing about the mine itself; the look and feel of the mine, and the coal it produced that helped fuel machinery and heat homes. However, in the end, my book ended up being more about the miners than the mines. Most miners endured long and hard hours of working underground, and without receiving much pay. Perhaps Marybeth Anderson said it best when she called the underground mines, “a great place to visit, but not somewhere I’d want to work” (Anderson 121).
Within the last paragraph of the author's speech, he uses the words mine and mines repeatedly. Why does the author repeat these words so frequently?
A) The author found out that most miners endured long and hard hours of working underground.
B) The author seeks to emphasize the importance of mines and their unique workplace environment.
C) The author had fond memories of the mines because he had explored them several times while growing up.
D) The author had intended for his research to be about the "mines," but was surprised to find out that the mines are nothing special without the coalminers.
Answer:
i believe it is b, The author seeks to emphasize the importance of mines and their unique workplace environment.
