In "To Build a Fire" (131), the protagonist (main character) has no name. He is referred to as "the man." Why do you think Jack London did not name this character? Think about the importance of setting in this story when you answer the question.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Since there is no other human character in "To Build A Fire", Jack London had no need to give his protagonist a name.

Explanation:

London must have had additional reasons for not providing him with a name. One reason could have been that he wanted to illustrate the insignificance of human beings in contrast to the grandeur and power of nature.

Virgil is a man with many fine and admirable qualities. He serves as Dante's protector and guide as he travels through various realms of hell. Dante is a poet who, thanks to his compassionate and spiritual ideas, makes a remarkable job on literature works and poetry.

Why does Dante value Virgil as a poet?

Because he played that part in Dante's life, Virgil serves as the guide in Dante's poetry. Virgil, more than any other author, contributed to the development of Dante; he served as the poem's model, not Aristotle or Aquinas.

Read the passage. (1) Universal health care should be adopted by every country around the world. (2) Over 100 million people become poor every year because of healthcare bills. (3) Imagine how it feels to be afraid to go to the doctor for fear of plunging into debt. (4) That is a really terrible thing, and governments need to act. (5) The World Health Organization (WHO) says that universal health care is achievable, even in poor countries. (6) The WHO recommends spreading the costs of health care across the population, so no one is overly burdened. (7) If a responsible organization like the WHO says it is possible, then worldwide governments should implement universal healthcare immediately. Which revision is the best way to strengthen the argument? A sentence stating the claim should be added before sentence 1. Sentence 2 should be deleted because it does not clearly support the claim. Sentence 4 should be revised to incorporate strong supporting evidence. A sentence that includes a strong rebuttal should be added after sentence 7.

Answers

Answer:

The revision that is the best way to strengthen the argument is:

Sentence 4 should be revised to incorporate strong supporting evidence.

Explanation:

In order to defend his claims, an author needs to offer his audience strong arguments. Strong arguments need support, which comes for providing evidence of what is being claimed. Having that in mind, let's take a look at sentence 4:

4) That is a really terrible thing, and governments need to act.

Even though sentence 4 is addressing what was said in sentence 3, it is still a weak sentence to be included. It does not support the argument with evidence at all. It simply conveys the author's personal opinion and feelings, which is not enough to help strengthen this argument. The best way to revise it would be by adding evidence that truly conveys the idea that not having healthcare is a terrible thing.

So this is an excerpt from The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. In the text, the scene of Jordan Baker and Nick Carraway driving in her car and their conversation deeply reveals the theme of this novel- which is  the careless of the Elite. When it comes to carelessness, you can't get more reckless than Tom and Daisy Buchanan. The super-rich heirs of old families, Tom and Daisy were born into the lap of luxury, and their greatest purpose in life is to remain there, no matter the cost to others. The carelessness exemplified by Tom and Daisy Buchanan is a carelessness of the elite, the brutal and thoughtless power that the 'haves' of this world can exert, most particularly on the 'have-nots.' From Nick's perspective of "careless people", he shows abomination and disrelish. Though Nick has feelings for Jordan Baker, however, deep down, the "Elites'"ignorance towards society is the real reson that spiritually separates Nick with them.

Both this excerpt from Roosevelt’s State of the Union address and the poster use the particular diction, a style of enunciation in speaking or singing, to convey their message.

Find the value of xbelow Which of the following did Andrew Jackson not support?Excerpt taken from The Historic Rise of Old Hickory by Suzanne B. WilliamsFour major candidates ran in the 1824 election, all under the "Democratic-Republican" name. One of the candidates, Andrew Jackson, was already famous. In the 1780s, he earned the right to practice law and served in various offices of the state government, including senator. He earned the nickname "Old Hickory" for his toughness as a general during the War of 1812 and First Seminole War. Jackson supported slavery and "Indian removal." This earned him support from voters in southern and frontier states. The other three candidates were John Quincy Adams of Massachusetts, Henry Clay of Kentucky, and William Crawford of Georgia.U.S. presidents are elected through the Electoral College. The Founding Fathers worried that Americans were too spread out to learn enough about the candidates. Under the Electoral College, Americans cast their ballot for the popular vote, which chooses the electors for each state. The number of electoral votes each state equals the number of representatives and senators combined. The candidates must win an absolute majority of electoral votes to win the election.In 1824, Andrew Jackson won the popular vote, but he did not win it in each state. Jackson and Adams both won many electoral votes. Jackson won the most with 99. However, a candidate needs an absolute majority of electoral votes to win. In 1824, Jackson needed 131 to win. When there is not majority winner, the election goes to the House of Representatives. This has only happened twice in U.S. history.Even though he won the popular vote and many electoral votes, Andrew Jackson lost the presidency in 1824. John Quincy Adams was the Secretary of State at this time. Henry Clay was the Speaker of the House of Representatives. Henry Clay, receiving the least, was left out. However, as a leader in the House of Representatives, he had influence over the other members. Clay openly hated Jackson and there were rumors that Clay made a deal with Adams in exchange for his support. The House election declared John Quincy Adams president. Soon, he chose Henry Clay to fill the seat he left vacant, Secretary of State. Jackson was shocked and enraged. Although there was no inquiry of possible wrongdoing, Jackson accused Adams and Clay of making a "corrupt bargain."John Quincy Adams was a disappointment as president. Many of his goals created divisions like federal funds for internal improvement. Some states thought that taking federal funds would force them to follow certain rules. They felt this reduced their rights as independent states. Jackson took advantage of issues like this one to gather more support. More Jackson supporters found their way to seats in Congress. He was as a man of the people and said Adams could never understand the common mans concerns.John Quincy Adams ran against Andrew Jackson in the 1828 election. Personal attacks grew even more vicious, but Andrew Jackson appealed to many. He believed government was for the common man. He believed in strict reading of the law and limited internal improvements. He also believed in states rights.Andrew Jackson easily won the 1828 election, winning both the popular vote and a majority of electoral votes. Historians note the sectional nature of the voting. Support for Jackson was concentrated in South while Adams support was mostly in the North. Jackson was so popular because he brought changes to the government. He also wanted to make sure the government was responsible for its actions. Jackson pushed settlement into the frontier. He supported the Indian Removal act. He also defended the spread of slavery. Though his support was heavier in the South, he was determined to keep a unified nation. The rise and presidency of Old Hickory is memorable to Americans today.Which of the following did Andrew Jackson not support?Answers: A: A limited national governmentB: Spreading of slavery to the frontierC: Federal funds for internal improvementsD: A strict interpretation of the U.S. Constitution if a spider is 35 mm long. how many centimeters long is the spider?
