In "The Masque of the Red Death," Edgar Allan Poe personifies the Red Death. Which two excerpts from the story reflect this fact?
( select the correct excerpts)


Excerpt 1
The "Red Death" had long devastated the country. No pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. Blood was its Avatar and its seal—the redness and the horror of blood.
Excerpt 2
The figure was tall and gaunt, and shrouded from head to foot in the habiliments of the grave. The mask which concealed the visage was made so nearly to resemble the countenance of a stiffened corpse that the closest scrutiny must have had difficulty in detecting the cheat.
Excerpt 3
His vesture was dabbled in blood—and his broad brow, with all the features of the face, was besprinkled with the scarlet horror. And now was acknowledged the presence of the Red Death. He had come like a thief in the night.
Excerpt 4
But in the western or black chamber the effect of the fire-light that streamed upon the dark hangings through the blood-tinted panes, was ghastly in the extreme, and produced so wild a look upon the countenances of those who entered, that there were few of the company bold enough to set foot within its precincts at all.

What is two effects of corruption on individuals? And provide one example to support each.

Answers

Answer:

Corruption hurts everyone.

The impact of corruption goes beyond the corrupt individuals, the innocent colleagues who are implicated, or the reputation of the organisations they work for. Ultimately, Victorians are the ones who lose out.

Corruption erodes the trust we have in the public sector to act in our best interests. It also wastes our taxes or rates that have been earmarked for important community projects – meaning we have to put up with poor quality services or infrastructure, or we miss out altogether.

Explanation:

financial loss

damage to employee morale

damage to organisation's reputation

organisational focus and resources diverted away from delivering core business and services to the community

increased scrutiny, oversight and regulation.

There are many songs. If you are asking for a specific song by a world renowned artist, then I would suggest 'Bad Blood' by Taylor Swift (American singer & songwriter). 'Bad Blood' is pretty unique song & was widely enjoyed by many when it was released back in 2015, (Album - 1989). The lyrics are given below (credits: AZLyrics.com)

"Bad Blood"

'Cause, baby, now we got bad blood

You know it used to be mad love

So take a look what you've done

'Cause, baby, now we got bad blood

Hey

Now we got problems

And I don't think we can solve them

You made a really deep cut

And, baby, now we got bad blood

Hey

Did you have to do this? I was thinking that you could be trusted

Did you have to ruin what was shiny? Now it's all rusted

Did you have to hit me, where I'm weak? Baby, I couldn't breathe

And rub it in so deep, salt in the wound like you're laughing right at me

Oh, it's so sad to think about the good times, you and I

'Cause, baby, now we got bad blood

You know it used to be mad love

So take a look what you've done

You made a really deep cut

And, baby, now we got bad blood

Hey

Did you think we'd be fine? Still got scars on my back from your knife

So don't think it's in the past, these kinda wounds they last and they last.

Now did you think it all through? All these things will catch up to you

And time can heal but this won't, so if you're coming my way, just don't

Oh, it's so sad to think about the good times, you and I

'Cause, baby, now we got bad blood

You know it used to be mad love

You say sorry just for show

If you live like that, you live with ghosts (ghosts)

How can I get over any kind of resentment towards people who emotionally did a wrong?

Answers

Answer:

Feel no obligation to 'get over' it.

If you ultimately decide that the offense was not irremissible, be certain to first afford yourself time to reconcile with your emotions. Distance yourself from the people who have done you harm. Consult those closest to you for comfort and counsel. Seek solace in activities that bring you joy and repose.

If/when you no longer feel embittered, request to see the individual(s) who have wronged you and converse with them. Hopefully, this can settle any lingering dispute and dissipate any protracted enmity.

Forgiveness can take time; simply be patient with yourself, and remember you need not feel remorseful for your emotions.

So the duke said these Arkansaw lunkheads couldn't come up to Shakespeare; what they wanted was low comedy—and maybe something ruther worse than low comedy, he reckoned.

Based on the excerpt, which best describes the duke’s impression of people in this part of Arkansas?

Answers

Answer:

Based on the excerpt, what best describes the duke's impression of people in this part of Arkansas is: he thinks they are not intelligent.

Explanation:

The passage we are analyzing here is from the novel "Huckleberry Finn," which is narrated by the homonym character, a young boy who escapes his abusive father. The author is the famous American author Mark Twain (1835-1910), whose humor and narratives are extremely famous all over the world.

In the passage, we can tell the duke is judging the people of Arkansas as being intellectually inferior. Notice the word choice in "low comedy" and, even worse, "lunkheads". A "lunkhead" is a slow-witted person. The duke thinks those people are not intelligent, which is why their choice of entertainment is "low", inferior.

Which form of poetry is used in TS Eliot’s preludes fixed form. Closed form. Free verse. Or blank verse

Answers

Answer:

c). Free verse

Explanation:

'Free verse' is characterized as the poetic form in which the lines are divided without any particular length or meter and without having a rhyme scheme. Such a poetic form offers complete liberty of word choice to convey the intended idea or meaning to the readers. Such a poetic structure allows a greater opportunity to interpret the poem as per their experiences.

T.S. Eliot's poem 'Preludes' is written in free verse as it neither follows a specific rhyme scheme nor a particular length, meter, or pattern. All the six stanzas in the poem follow distinct patterns and have unevenness throughout. Due to this inconsistency, it falls into the category of 'Free Verse.' Thus, option c is the correct answer.

Read the excerpt from Thomas Paine's work "The Crisis" No. 1. Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but "to BIND us in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER," and if being bound in that manner, is not slavery, then is there not such a thing as slavery upon earth.... ... Neither have I so much of the infidel in me, as to suppose that He has relinquished the government of the world, and given us up to the care of devils, and as I do not, I cannot see on what grounds the king of Britain can look up to heaven for help against us: a common murderer, a highwayman, or a house-breaker, has as good a pretence as he. The words "slavery," "devils," and "murderer" evoke a sense of O -anger and injustice.
-fear and anxiety.
-confusion and chaos.
-guilt and shame.​

Answers

Answer:

The words "slavery", "devils", and "murderer" evoke a sense of:

A. anger and injustice.

Explanation:

Thomas Paine (1737-1809) was a British writer and political philosopher. Paine supported the American revolution, claiming in his writings that England had no right to subjugate the American colonies.

That is, as a matter of fact, the theme of the passage we are analyzing here. Paine uses words such as "slavery", "devils", and "murderer" in order to convey feelings of anger and injustice. What England wants for itself and America is an owner-slave relationship. In doing so, the king of England is acting in a way that is not appeasing to God, an evil way. The king is, according to Paine, just like a regular thief or murderer.

As we can see, Paine is appealing to the readers' emotion, to their sense of justice, to convey his point. The same way that having one's house broken into by a burglar is enough to make anyone angry, so should be having your country broken into.

in the cat in the rain ,by ernest hemmingway why does the husband's offer to go down get the kitty seen insincere?

Answers

Answer: He was quite comfortable on the bed and gave in too easily to his wife.

Explanation:

In this scenario in the book, "Cat in the Rain", George, who is the husband, is on the bed where he is reading whilst next to two pillows showing that he was in a relaxed position.

When they needed to retrieve the cat, George offered to do so but when he wife insisted to a small degree that he didn't, he quickly accepted this and went back to reading. His offer was therefore perceptibly insincere because he was relaxed and did not want to give up this comfort and so quickly took a way out when it was offered to him.
