Select one of the Ray Bradbury stories for your response. Pick out at least three examples of text that stand out to you and demonstrate Bradbury’s skill as a writer. Use quotation marks to cite those examples. DISCUSS those examples. In your opinion, WHY are they good?
Here are some other questions to consider in your short essay: What did you think of the story? How did it make you feel? Did the story generate any sort of emotional response for you?
The response needs to be as CORRECT as possible and contain a minimum of 300 words. There is no maximum. Also, Times New Roman, 12 pt character size! No heading needed on this one.
Answer:
The writing style of Fahrenheit 451 is lyrical and descriptive. Bradbury’s poetic prose makes frequent use of similes, metaphors, and personification. For instance, near the end of the novel when Montag is floating downriver, the narrator describes the river as “mild and leisurely, going away from the people who ate shadows for breakfast and steam for lunch and vapors for supper.” Here the narrator employs figurative language to describe the spiritually malnourished city dwellers who subsist on nothing but illusions and meaningless entertainments—that is, on “shadows,” “steam,” and “vapors
Bradbury’s lyrical and adjective-heavy writing style enriches the story, endowing it with symbolic meaning. For example, Fahrenheit 451 contains a thematic preoccupation with fire. Fire appears throughout the novel, but the symbolic meaning of fire undergoes a transformation over the course of the story. Bradbury’s use of figurative language plays an important role in this transformation. At the beginning of the book, fire symbolizes the pleasure of destruction Bradbury uses one long, breathless sentence to capture the violent pleasure of setting the world on fire. Fire becomes at once an emblem of danger (the “great python”) and a mark of artistry (the “amazing conductor”). By the end of the novel, however, fire becomes a symbol not for destruction, but for life. Near the book’s conclusion, Bradbury provides an image of the sun as its own source of flame, and hence as a symbol for self-knowledge and internal drive: “And what lights the sun? Its own fire. And the sun goes on, day after day, burning and burning.” Burning no longer destroys. Instead, the perpetual fire of the sun keeps the world alive.

According to propp, how many characters types are there ?
Which is the theme of the passage?
"I glared at Kristina reproachfully throughout our first-period Spanish class the next morning. She had responded to none of my calls or texts nor my outraged e-mail, and this morning she studiously avoided meeting my eyes, doubtlessly glad that the alphabetical seating arrangement meant that she was across the room from me. I also noticed that she had entered the class at the last possible moment — and that Joel was also trying to catch her eye. I grinned a little at that."
A. Planning ahead can benefit yourself and others.
B. Helping others can be a pleasant experience.
C. You should help others because you may need their help one day.
D. It is important to help and spend time with elderly citizens.
4. Which of the following application of Maslow's theory of Hierarchy of
Needs best aligns with its intended purpose?
Answer:
C. A parent uses Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to decide which school might be best for her children.
Explanation:
Abraham Maslow's theory of the hierarchy of needs is based on the fact that human behavior and efforts are based or depends on motivation (what individuals hope to achieve)
Hence, in this case, the application of Maslow's theory of Hierarchy of Needs best aligns with its intended purpose, when " a parent uses Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to decide which school might be best for her children."
The utilization of Maslow's theory in deciding the best school for her children is human behavior, and she hopes to achieve self-actualization which is pursuing goals or going to school.
Therefore, the right answer here is option C.

Can you give a paragraph on how to persuade a student to get an education?
Answer:
speak on the benefits like making tons of money, become famous depending on what career you choose, be more open minded in different situations
Answer:
Explanation:
People with higher education and varied experience are more likely to get high-paying, expert jobs. Study hard, dedicate your time and effort to acquire knowledge and reach a high level of competence if you would like to lead a comfortable lifestyle. Your credentials are what will motivate a potential employer to choose you instead of another candidate. Studying hard throughout your school and studies shows you are not afraid of hard work and are able to fulfill your goals. Employers see this as a huge advantage as they all prefer a responsible and knowledgeable workforce. Once you graduate, you can start searching for jobs that will give you the opportunity to practice what you have learned and, at the same time, secure sufficient pay for your needs.Finding a job is not always easy. You often need to compete with hundreds of other candidates for a vacant position. In addition, the lower the education level, the greater the number of people applying for the same low-paying entry-level post. However, with the right qualifications and educational background, you will increase your chances of landing a fulfilling job.

whats the difference between active voice and passive voice
Explanation:
The Active voice emphasizes the person or agent who performs an action. The Passive voice emphasizes the receiption of the action or the action itself
active voice is when a sentence's subject is performing the action of a verb.
here is an example of a sentence using active voice:
Phil filmed the video.
in this sentence, phil is the subject.phil, the subject, is the one performing the action of filming the video.on the other hand, passive voice is when a sentence's subject receives the action of the verb being performed.
here is an example of a sentence using passive voice:
The video was filmed by Phil.
in this sentence, the video is the subject.the video, which is the subject, is being filmed by phil.some things to keep in mind:
when using passive voice, the action is being performed by the subject. this is why the video was filmed by phil in the second sentence (passive voice) as opposed to phil having filmed the video in the first sentence (active voice).whereas when using active voice, the subject is performing the action. this is why phil filmed the video in the first sentence as opposed to the video having been filmed by phil in the second sentence.i hope this helps & makes sense! i tried my best to explain but sometimes it's difficult lol but please comment with any other questions you may have and i can try to elaborate further!! :) have a lovely rest of your day <3
