In Hard Times, what is Charles Dickens’s purpose in describing the scene’s setting as “a plain, bare, monotonous vault of a schoolroom”?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

To convey that the students' education suppresses individual expression.

Explanation:

Charles Dickens’s novel "Hard Times" revolves around the people of England's Coketown where industrialization had taken over and people's lives were more monotonous than realistic. The satirical story deals with themes of society, industries, machines, facts, and fancy, etc.

In the description of the school's classroom scene from Chapter 1, the narrator reveals, "The scene was a plain, bare, monotonous vault of a schoolroom" which seems to suggest the idea that the student’s education does not encourage individual expression. The words "plain, bare, monotonous" presents a boring, dull image.

Answer:

The princess's actions most likely represent:

B. that everyone is selfish sometimes.

Explanation:

"The Lady, or the Tiger?" is a short story first published in 1882 and written by American writer and humorist Frank Richard Stockton (1834 - 1902).

The princess is one of the characters in the story and she goes through quite a hard time to make a certain decision. She is in love with a man of inferior rank. Her father, a semi-barbaric king, arrests the man and sends him to trial. The trial is as fair as one could expect coming from a semi-barbaric mind: the man will have to choose between two doors - one hiding a tiger, the other hiding a maiden. In other words, he will be judged by luck or fate. If he chooses the tiger, he dies. If he chooses the lady, he has to marry her.

The princess needs to decide if she will point him to the door with the maiden or not. Of course she loves him and does not want to see him devoured by the tiger. However, she is also very jealous when she imagines him marrying the young and beautiful maiden. Her jealousy, as shown in the passage, is a representation of how everyone can be selfish sometimes. She is indeed being selfish if she asks herself whether saving him or letting him die is the best decision. Were she a selfless woman, she would not mind him marrying another. She would be happy to have saved his life.

Answer:

B. that everyone is selfish sometimes.

Which type of figurative language is used in this sentence?
Greta is a fish in the water, darting through the water with ease.
pun
simile
metaphor
Personification

Answers

Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech that compares two things by saying the first thing is the second thing. Greta is obviously not actually a fish but she swims like one so the author used a metaphor.

WHY THE OTHER ANSWERS DO NOT WORK:

A pun is a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word. There is no joke being made here so the sentence is not a pun.

Personification is a form of metaphor in that human characteristics are attributed to nonhuman things. Greta is a human so this sentence is not an example of personification.

A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things using the terms "like" or "as". Neither of those phrases were used, so this sentence is not a simile.

The only option left is metaphor. :)

Write a letter to your friend, advising him/her on how to start a garden. You may use some of the words and phrases given. Make sure your letter is not less than 120 words.

Answers

Answer:

Letter to a friend on how to start a garden.

Explanation:

To,

My dear friend Ashley,

I heard that you are planning to get a garden started in your new home. So, here's some of my own take on how to get that done.

First, you must get rid of all the weeds in your garden as these plants will kill the good ones. Dig them out and also choose a place where there's good soil. Good soil will ensure your plants get the best treatment.

And then, you also have to choose what plants you want, while also focusing on the type of pots required. Different plants need different pots. Also, if you're working on planting on the ground itself and not on a pot, then make sure the flowerbeds are regularly weeded.

And most important of all, use fertilizers now and then, though not daily. And also make sure to water your plants daily or they will not grow as they should be.

If, in case, you need any help or anything, do let me know. I may not be an expert in gardening but I do know a few pointers to get it done.

Take care and will see you soon.

 

Love,

Sally.
