In Christianity, "the world" means the sinful, flawed world of humans. What is the effect of the contrast between "the world" in this poem and the author's references to Christ?

Answers

Answer 1

Hello. You forgot to mention that this question is about the poem "We Wear the Mask" and forgot to show the answer options. The options are:

The author is saying the only truth is what the world sees.

The author is saying religion is a crutch for the oppressed.

The author is rejecting the power that human society has over him by emphasizing Christ as the ultimate authority.

The author is accepting society's emphasis on appearances by emphasizing Christ's appearance.

Answer:

The author is saying religion is a crutch for the oppressed.

Explanation:

The speaker of the poem relies on Christ, using religion as a force for the abbustias he presents. This is because the speaker cannot show humanity how much he is anguished and oppressed and that is why he uses a mask that hides the real emotions he is going through. However, Christ sees how much he is suffering and that in a way presents a relief for him.

Mister Ray Sutcliffe from Alabama did not look pleased. "All right. All right. I'm going to pay you what you asking, this four times a rider's wages—but only if you win, you hear? You lose, boy, and you get nothing."

I was taking a big risk with my daddy, to walk away with nothing for it. But I figured I'd struck the best deal I could with Ray Sutcliffe, and despite the risk, there was something in me that wanted to prove to my daddy not only that I could ride this stranger's horse, but that I was a man now. I nodded. "I understand," I said. "But if he wins, I'll need my money right after the race."

Why do you think Shakespeare wanted to tell his audience the story of Julius Caesar?

Answers

Answer:

One of the reasons was to show that history repeats itself. The queen of England had no heirs and neither did Julius Caesar. Shakespeare was trying to say that power can make people act differently than they usually would.  Some scholars believe he wrote the play partially to express his worry that Queen Elizabeth I's impending death could bring about civil war to their country.

"I cannot send you one single flower from this
wealth of the spring, one single streak of gold
from yonder clouds.
Open your doors and look abroad.
From your blossoming garden gather fragrant
memories of the vanished flowers of an
hundred years before.
–“85,”
Rabindranath Tagore

What type of figurative language is used in the line "one single streak of gold from yonder clouds,” and what is its effect?

Answers

Answer:

It is a metaphor that compares sunlight to gold.

Explanation:

Tagore tries to converse with all of his readers through this poem. Tagore’s poem talks about time and old age. The voice of the poem is an old man whose audience is of a younger group. The use of apostrophe brings us closer to the old man. Instead of being just an audience, we become part of the poem or its receiver. We are told in everything we see today has its own history and beauty. The entire poem becomes timeless, as the receiver can be anyone at any age.

Looking at the line, the figurative language used is: metaphor. The metaphor here compares the sunlight to gold.

What is metaphor?

Metaphor is known to be a figure of speech that actually compares two things that are not alike but in some sense are in common. It involves comparison without the use of "like" or "as".

We can see that the author speaks of a "streak of gold from yonder clouds". This is referring to the sunlight.

How does the speaker respond to getting sent away? What can we infer about the speaker's character?In the poem I,Too, Sing America

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

"I, too, sing America" is a poem by Langston Hughes in which the themes of racism and pride are explored. The speaker says he is the "darker brother" who is not allowed to eat at the table with the others. He says he is sent to the kitchen to eat away from everyone else. This is a metaphor for how African Americans are treated, being told they cannot have access and rights to things everyone else has.

How does the speaker respond to getting sent away?

Instead of being sad, being sent away only makes the speaker stronger:

But I laugh,

And eat well,

And grow strong.

He uses this time to grow, to gather strength to fight for his rights, for his place at the table.

What can we infer about the speaker's character?

We can infer the speaker is proud to be who he is. He is clearly a resilient person, who sees difficulties as opportunities. He is also brave and secure - he knows his fight will one day give him the same rights as the ones who now can eat at the table.

After reading "Four Freedoms," read this excerpt from Lincoln's "Gettysburg Address." Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

compare the relation between environment
and development *
.​

Answers

Answer: The relationship between the environment and economic development may be accessed from two different points of view. One point of view is that factors like political climate, governmental policies and culture in the environment affects economic development. A second viewpoint is the manner in which the activities associated with economic development affect the environment.Environment and economic development are linked in the sense that the factors in place in the environment have a huge impact on the rate of economic development for a region. A country with a politically unstable reputation will not be able to attract necessary investors and businesses from interested investors both within and outside the country. A local investor with the resources to establish a business may prefer to take his or her money elsewhere, to a country with a reasonably stable government. This lack of investment by entrepreneurs is due to the fact that there is no guarantee of any security for their investments. Lack of security also means that the business will not flourish in the way it would in a country with a stable government.

Which line is the BEST example of the author creating tension?


Select one:

Then he remembered what followed that evening. It was decided that the young man should spend the years of his captivity under the strictest supervision in one of the lodges in the banker’s garden. It was agreed that for fifteen years he should not be free to cross the threshold of the lodge, to see human beings, to hear the human voice, or to receive letters and newspapers.

What was the object of that bet? What is the good of that man’s losing fifteen years of his life and my throwing away two million? Can it prove that the death penalty is better or worse than imprisonment for life? No, no. It was all nonsensical and meaningless. On my part it was the caprice of a pampered man, and on his part simple greed for money…

He was allowed to have a musical instrument and books, and was allowed to write letters, to drink wine, and to smoke. By the terms of the agreement, the only relations he could have with the outer world were by a little window made purposely for that object.

The agreement provided for every detail and every trifle that would make his imprisonment strictly solitary, and bound the young man to stay there exactly fifteen years, beginning from twelve o’clock of November 14, 1870, and ending at twelve o’clock of November 14, 1885.
