How do Kevin’s interactions with his father and his teacher, Waldo, help develop the theme within the story? Provide evidence from the reading to support your response.

Answers

One theme of this story is coming of age, which is revealed through Kevin’s experiences at school and home. In the story, Kevin feels caught between his interactions with his father at home and his teacher at school. Waldo, Kevin’s teacher, humiliates Kevin because his father helped him complete his homework, which is incorrect. Consider the character interaction at the end of the story between Kevin and his father:

“How did it go today?” his father asked.

“All right.” They kept silent until they reached the corner of their own street.

“What about the Latin?”

Kevin faltered, feeling a babyish desire to cry.

“How was it?”

“OK. Fine.”

“Good. I was a bit worried about it. It was done in a bit of a rush. Son, your Da’s a genius.” He smacked him with the paper again. Kevin laughed and slipped his hand into the warmth of his father’s overcoat pocket, deep to the elbow.

Kevin has the “babyish desire to cry,” but he doesn’t let his father know about the problems at school. His restraint shows that through this experience Kevin has matured, and he is protecting his father from feeling the humiliation from his school experience.

"These Ethiopians, as black as they are; seeing they are the Sons and Daughters of the First Adam, the Brethren and Sister of the Last ADAM, and the Offspring of GOD; They ought to be treated with a Respect agreeable."
This excerpt supports all but which main idea?
A. People of African descent are not less human than whites and should be treated with respect.
B. That Africans come from the area where Adam and Eve came from.
C. That the Bible says we should love all people.
D. That everyone is a child of the same God.

Answers

B and C both seem like irrelevant choices to me. choice A definitely relates to the excerpt, because the main idea of it is that ethiopians should be given "a respect agreeable" and choice A describes that idea. however, in the case of choice B, the excerpt says that ethiopians are the children of adam and eve, but that doesn't necessarily suggest that ethiopians and africans are from the same location. i think B is too literal of an interpretation, personally. C also seems irrelevant, because the excerpt doesn't mention the concept of love and it doesn't state that we should love them--it says that they should be treated with respect, and for me, there is a distinction there. i would say that D is correct, because it states that ethiopians are "the offspring of god" which emphasizes that they, alongside others, are children of god.

i don't know if you're allowed to pick multiple answers here or what, because i believe B and C are equally incorrect.

The answer is: A. People of African descent are not less human than whites and should be treated with respect.

In this excerpt the author is showing his/her feeling about the Ethiopian black people, saying that their skin color does not affect the treatment  that they should receive from the other people, that they are all the Offspring of GOD and for this reason should be treated with a Respect agreeable.

In "The Philosophy of Composition," Edgar Allan Poe explains many of his literary strategies. One of the things he reveals is how he was able to create contrast in the portrayal of the bird in "The Raven."

The sentence also contains an optional adverbial clause 'on Friday', specifying the time when Juan and Carlos went to the store.

Answers

The correct answer is B. apostrophe

Final answer:

Tennyson uses apostrophe in the first two lines of Stanzas 1 and 4 of "Break, Break, Break," directly addressing and personifying the Sea.

Explanation:

In the first two lines of Stanzas 1 and 4 of "Break, Break, Break," by Tennyson, he uses B) apostrophe. An apostrophe, in this context, refers to the direct address of an inanimate object, abstraction, or absent person as if it were present and capable of understanding. In this case, the 'O Sea!' is directly addressed and personified as if it could comprehend the poet's intense emotions. The sea, described as having "cold gray stones", is not personified; rather, it is a recipient of the poet's visceral plea. Tennyson does not make use of personification (option A) or metaphor (option C) in the specified lines.

According to aristotle, how are plot events related in a tragedy? through cause-and-effect relationships through allusions that impact mood through the songs of the chorus through random acts of chance

Answers

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the first choice.

According to Aristotle, the plot events are related in a tragedy through cause-and-effect relationships.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!

Aristotle posited that the events in a tragedy should be connected through cause-and-effect relationships, leading to the emotional purgation of the audience.

According to Aristotle, plot events in a tragedy are related through cause-and-effect relationships. Aristotle analyzes tragedy by breaking it down into six significant parts: Plot, Character, Diction, Thought, Spectacle, and Song, with the Plot being of greatest importance. He asserts that a tragedy should imitate actions inspiring pity and fear, which are best produced when events are interconnected and progress logically to surprise the audience, heightening the tragic wonder.

This interconnectedness makes the plot, according to Aristotle, the 'soul' of a tragedy, as it integrates the incidents in an orderly and consequential structure, leading to the downfall of typically heroic characters due to their tragic flaws. The end-effect for the audience is a sense of catharsis, or emotional purgation.
