The author's message is meant to give the reader an idea of what the story or book is about in a very short yet concise manner. This message is important for reasons including, buyers who really want to know what the content of the book they are about to pick is, they simply cannot read the entire book on the spot, However. with the author's message, they have an idea of what's in the book albeit in summary.

ead the excerpt from "The Scarlet Ibis." There is within me (and with sadness I have watched it in others) a knot of cruelty borne by the stream of love, much as our blood sometimes bears the seed of our destruction, and at times I was mean to Doodle. One day I took him up to the barn loft and showed him his casket, telling him how we all had believed he would die. It was covered with a film of Paris green sprinkled to kill the rats, and screech owls had built a nest inside it. Doodle studied the mahogany box for a long time, then said, "It’s not mine." "It is," I said. "And before I’ll help you down from the loft, you’re going to have to touch it." What symbol is described in this excerpt, and what does it represent?

Answers

This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find them online. They are the following:

What symbol is described in this excerpt, and what does it represent?

A. the owls, which symbolize knowledge and wisdom.

B. the nest, which symbolizes home and family.

C. the rats, which symbolize cruelty and sadness.

D. the casket, which symbolizes the loss of Doodle.

Answer:

The symbol and its representation is:

D. the casket, which symbolizes the loss of Doodle.

Explanation:

James Hurst was an American novelist born in North Carolina in 1922. He published the short story "The Scarlet Ibis" in 1960.

Doodle is just a little boy but he has an incredibly sad story. He was born with serious health problems, so no one ever thought he would live long. In the passage we are analyzing here, the narrator, who is Doodle's older brother, is showing Doodle his casket. A casket is an obvious representation of death, and quite a strong predictor of what is to come later in the story. Doodle does not accept the casket as his, but it seems that he hasn't got much of a choice. Everyone already expects him to die.

2. Should Alex cook dinner? Yes, he should.

3. My friend should try to quit smoking.

4. We should stay at home. We shouldn't go out.

5. Should they watch TV all day? No, they shouldn't.

6. Stewart looks very sick. He should see a doctor.

7. You shouldn't drive a car without wearing your seat belt.

8. What should we eat for dinner tonight?

9. There's a fire in the kitchen. What should we do?

10. Please be quiet! You shouldn't make so much noise in the library!

Explanation:

"Should" is a modal verb used to express suggestion, recommendation, or even obligation, although lightly. As a modal verb, it stays the same no matter the person of speech being used with it: "I should, you should, he should," etc. Also, the verb that follows it should NOT be preceded by "to": "You should go."

In the negative form, "should" can be contracted with "not", becoming "shouldn't". In the interrogative form, it comes before the subject of the sentence. Take a look at the examples below:

I should stop eating so much fast food. You shouldn't talk to your parents like that. Should I call her one more time? No, you shouldn't.

Answers

Answer:

She has a very determined attitude.

Explanation:

"The Necklace," tells the story of a woman who borrowed a necklace from a friend and ended up breaking it. This woman is Madame Loisel and she borrowed the necklace to go to a fancy dinner at the company her husband works for. She had no jewelry and was embarrassed to look poor at dinner.

Madame Loisel believed that the necklace she broke was too expensive and she didn't have the courage to return the broken necklace to her friend, so she decided to work hard, in whatever job she could find, to be able to buy another necklace. She took a determined attitude and struggled to get the necessary money.

Answers

Answer:

The chairman of the board: "We are meeting our goals for the quarter. How should we  best use our profits?"

Explanation:

The above sentence does not introduce a quotation correctly.

The quotation mark is known to be a punctuation mark that is used in setting off and representing exact language which was made by somebody else. The language made by the person may be written or spoken. We find the use of quotation marks in fictional work when it is used to designate speech acts.

In the above selected sentence, we see that the colon follows after "the chairman of the board" without clarifying if he is making the statement that follows after the colon.
