Very soon after I went to live with Mr. and Mrs. Auld, she very kindly commenced to teach me the A, B, C. After I had learned this, she assisted me in learning to spell words of three or four letters. Just at this point of my progress, Mr. Auld found out what was going on, and at once forbade Mrs. Auld to instruct me further, telling her, among other things, that it was unlawful, as well as unsafe, to teach a slave to read. To use his own words, further, he said, "If you give a [slave] an inch, he will take an ell. A [slave] should know nothing but to obey his master—to do as he is told to do. Learning would spoil the best [slave] in the world. Now," said he, "if you teach that [slave] (speaking of myself) how to read, there would be no keeping him. It would forever unfit him to be a slave. He would at once become unmanageable, and of no value to his master. As to himself, it could do him no good, but a great deal of harm. It would make him discontented and unhappy."

These words sank deep into my heart, stirred up sentiments within that lay slumbering, and called into existence an entirely new train of thought. It was a new and special revelation, explaining dark and mysterious things, with which my youthful understanding had struggled, but struggled in vain. I now understood what had been to me a most perplexing difficulty—to wit, the white man's power to enslave the black man. It was a grand achievement, and I prized it highly. From that moment, I understood the pathway from slavery to freedom. It was just what I wanted, and I got it at a time when I the least expected it. Whilst I was saddened by the thought of losing the aid of my kind mistress, I was gladdened by the invaluable instruction which, by the merest accident, I had gained from my master.

Though conscious of the difficulty of learning without a teacher, I set out with high hope, and a fixed purpose, at whatever cost of trouble, to learn how to read. The very decided manner with which he spoke, and strove to impress his wife with the evil consequences of giving me instruction, served to convince me that he was deeply sensible of the truths he was uttering. It gave me the best assurance that I might rely with the utmost confidence on the results which, he said, would flow from teaching me to read. What he most dreaded, that I most desired. What he most loved, that I most hated. That which to him was a great evil, to be carefully shunned, was to me a great good, to be diligently sought; and the argument which he so warmly urged, against my learning to read, only served to inspire me with a desire and determination to learn. In learning to read, I owe almost as much to the bitter opposition of my master, as to the kindly aid of my mistress. I acknowledge the benefit of both. . .

The plan which I adopted, and the one by which I was most successful, was that of making friends of all the little white boys whom I met in the street. As many of these as I could, I converted into teachers. With their kindly aid, obtained at different times and in different places, I finally succeeded in learning to read. When I was sent of errands, I always took my book with me, and by going one part of my errand quickly, I found time to get a lesson before my return. I used also to carry bread with me, enough of which was always in the house, and to which I was always welcome; for I was much better off in this regard than many of the poor white children in our neighborhood. This bread I used to bestow upon the hungry little urchins, who, in return, would give me that more valuable bread of knowledge.

I am strongly tempted to give the names of two or three of those little boys, as a testimonial of the gratitude and affection I bear them; but prudence forbids;—not that it would injure me, but it might embarrass them; for it is almost an unpardonable offence to teach slaves to read in this Christian country. It is enough to say of the dear little fellows, that they lived on Philpot Street, very near Durgin and Bailey's ship-yard. I used to talk this matter of slavery over with them. I would sometimes say to them, I wished I could be as free as they would be when they got to be men. "You will be free as soon as you are twenty-one, but I am a slave for life! Have not I as good a right to be free as you have?" These words used to trouble them; they would express for me the liveliest sympathy, and console me with the hope that something would occur by which I might be free.

The correct answer is B) intransigence, meaning Ray is extremely stubborn. We know this because his act of leaving the table was really rude. He refused to try the exotic dish and got mad when others continued in persuading him. The answer a)tenacity, meaning Ray is very courageous is not correct because if it was the case, Ray would've tried the exotic dish. The answer c) resolve, suggesting Ray follows through on his morals - is also not correct because morals do not have anything to do with decision making regarding trying out new dishes. The answer d) toughness, suggesting Ray is used to getting his way - is also not correct.

Final answer:

Jack's view of human purpose is self-centered, focusing on personal reinvention and ambition. Ralph's perspective, while not detailed, is often interpreted as being more aligned with social responsibility and the collective good. Both perspectives embody different facets of humanity's search for meaning and purpose.

Explanation:

Discussing the idea of “human purpose” in the context of these characters revolves around their differing views on humanity and their roles within it. Jack seems to have a more self-centered view of humanity, seeking to reinvent himself and create a new sociological background. His actions suggest an egotistical approach, focusing on personal desires and self-advancement.

In contrast, Ralph represents a different perspective. Without specific details provided on Ralph's views in the question, we can look to common literary analyses for his viewpoints. Typically, characters like Ralph in literature tend to focus on the collective good and societal rules, often clashing with more self-serving characters like Jack. However, without concrete details from the actual text regarding Ralph’s viewpoint, this analysis remains speculative.

Both Jack and Ralph reflect contrasting aspects of human nature and purpose, with Jack embodying a more individualistic ambition, whereas Ralph, by general interpretation, may prioritize social responsibility and the greater good.

In Frankenstein (1818) by Mary Shelley, Robert Walton's goal to discover a faster route for shipping goods is overly ambitious.

In the story, Victor warns him about the dangers of ambition and its power to led him to his own demise since he has also been a victim of ambition before.  

"Farewell, Walton! Seek happiness in tranquillity and avoid ambition, even if it be only the apparently innocent one of distinguishing yourself in science and discoveries. Yet why do I say this? I have myself been blasted in these hopes." (Frankenstein, Chapter 24 Part Three).

Walton constantly refuses to give up on his desire to find another route and he is willing to put everything on the line to achieve his goal. This is what makes his desire overly ambitious, regardless of how noble the goal is.

The lines that contain diction that creates the overall tone in the provided text examples involve vivid descriptions and evoke emotional responses. For example, phrases like 'the silken curtains, thin as russet silk' and 'the candles' tears' emphasize the elegance and sadness in the scene. Similarly, the description of how 'two tears had rolled down her wet face' in the passage about Judy creates a tone of vulnerability and poignancy.

Given that 'blunt' means 'not smart' and that 'mettle' means 'wit; intelligence', I believe that the statement that best paraphrases "What a blunt fellow is this grown to be! He was quick mettle when he went to school" is "This man, who was smart in school, has grown up to be unintelligent".

The paraphrased statement expresses that the man once known to be intelligent in school has become unintelligent over time.

The best paraphrase of the excerpt “What a blunt fellow is this grown to be! He was quick mettle when he went to school.” is that this man, who was smart in school, has grown up to be unintelligent. The term ‘blunt’ here is used to mean not smart, and ‘mettle’ suggests wit or intelligence. Brutus is reflecting on how the man has lost the sharpness or intelligence he once had during his school days.

Describe, in your own words, Sartre’s idea of the importance of reality and how that concept informs his view of cowardice.

In his 1946 work "Existentialism is Humanism", Sartre explores existentialism and its effect on humanity. He states that a coward is: "defined by the deed that he has done. What people feel obscurely, and with horror, is that the coward as we present him is guilty of being a coward."  The action of the coward defines him, an aspect that can be changed only by him. If he is committed to change what defines him, he can erase the notion of being a coward.

Nevertheless, Sartre mentions that “There is no reality except in action”, and this reveals the importance of reality. Humans, regardless of the outcome of an unattainable future, are still in control of some aspects of their reality through their actions; thus, they can shape their individual futures in a way.

This is "total freedom" defined solely by the individual, as Sartre says: "Those who hide from this total freedom, in a guise of solemnity or with deterministic excuses, I shall call cowards."  What matters in someone's existence is what is decided. A decision is going to shape someone's reality and will define whether the person is a hero or a coward.

A report is a written document that include some elements such as tables, graphics, images, and, more importantly, specialized vocabulary in order to persuade a specific audience. All reports share the same structure which is a factual part (giving information about the subject) and the subjective part (written to convince the reader about something in particular)

Answer:

false

Explanation:

The protagonist’s stage of identity development throughout the story is as follow:

At the beginning of the story, readers can find an identiy Moratorium or a crisis, when He states:  

a) “You don’t mean we’re leaving Berlin?

b) But we had plans,” he protested. “Plans?” asked Mother, raising an eyebrow…”I’m sorry, Bruno,” said Mother, “but your plans are just going to have to wait. We don’t have a choice in this.

In the Middle of the novel, one can discover that it is an identity foreclosure when the protagonist makes a commitment to help Shmuel. This commitment is expressed by Bruno when He states:  

a) Of course, “It would be a great adventure. Our final adventure. I could do some exploring at least.”

b) “And you could help me look for Papa,” said Shmuel. “Why not?” said Bruno.”  

These sentences demonstrate Identity foreclosure because it shows how Bruno was just being a good friend and didn’t even think twice when his curiosity took the best of him to see the other side of the fence before he never saw Shmuel again.  

Also in this part of the story, the autor wanted to show Bruno’s identity diffusion (which occurs when the adolescent does not make a commitment to any particular roles, values, or goals) stating that:

Bruno was just being a good friend and didn’t even think twice when his curiosity took the best of him to see the other side of the fence before he never saw Shmuel again

At the end of the story, readers can find Identity Achievement (which occurs when the protagonist makes a personal decision or commitment) when Bruno said:

 “You’re my best friend, Shmuel,”  

“My best friend for life.”

Shmuel may have opened his mouth to say something back, but Bruno never heard it… despite the chaos that followed, Bruno found that he was still holding Shmuel’s hand and nothing in the world would have persuaded him to let go.

This was Bruno personal decision to not let his friend down and to stay true to his word. In this end stage of the novel Bruno is a boy with his own mind.

I believe that it is “I killed not thee with half so good a will,” which shows Brutus’s desperate desire to die. The second piece of evidence (“I prithee, Strato, stay thou by thy lord”) doesn’t show the negative influence that dignity can have on oneself; “thy life hath had some smatch of honor in it” does not show the true extent of dignity’s influence; and “night hangs upon mine eyes” is NOT a piece of evidence- it is merely a poetic phrase that Brutus uses to describe his current state.

Answer:

Answer is D

Explanation:

The answer is: (B) and (D)

In order to improve this paragraph, the writer should revise the claim in order to make it clear as it seems to me that the main idea of the paragraph is vaguely stated. The author should provide a more specific and detailed claim in order to invite the reader to continue reading the text. In addition, the sources and evidence that support the claim are not successfully developed in detailed. They do not add information or arguments to support the main idea.
