2. Discuss the structure of Nadine Gordimer’s ""The First Sense."" How does the structure highlight the differences between the wife and her husband? How does Gordimer set up the reader to understand the wife’s choices? Do you think she is successful? Why or why not? Answer these questions in your discussion with a defensible claim and provide textual evidence.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

1. In the first paragraph, the author of the text presents a structure of comparison and contrast, showing the differences in salary and work between husband and wife. While he earns a good salary as a cellist in a symphony orchestra, she lives on a basic salary working in a local government office. In the second paragraph we can see a descriptive structure, in which the author describes how the couple's life is based only on the husband's professional circle, which makes the wife often devalued.

2. The author shows that the wife is proud and happy for her husband's success, even though her life seems boring and people devalue her. This makes the reader understand that the wife decided to have a simpler life, so that it was possible to support her husband's dreams and success.

3. When reading the text, we can see that the wife is happy that the husband has achieved success and is not sad at any time or sorry. Thus, we can conclude that she is happy.

Which part of this story by the Brothers Grimm shows how a decision made by the main character affects the events of the story?

A. A shepherd had a faithful dog, called Sultan, who was grown very old, and had lost all his teeth. And one day when the shepherd and his wife were standing together before the house the shepherd said, "I will shoot old Sultan tomorrow morning, for he is of no use now."
B. Poor Sultan, who was lying close by them, heard all that the shepherd and his wife said to one another, and was very much frightened to think tomorrow would be his last day; so in the evening he went to his good friend the wolf, who lived in the wood, and told him all his sorrows, and how his master meant to kill him in the morning.
C. Soon afterwards the wolf came and wished him joy, and said, "Now, my good fellow, you must tell no tales, but turn your head the other way when I want to taste one of the old shepherd's fine fat sheep."
D. The boar, however, had not quite hidden himself, for his ears stuck out of the bush; and when he shook one of them a little, the cat, seeing something move, and thinking it was a mouse, sprang upon it, and bit and scratched it, so that the boar jumped up and grunted, and ran away, roaring out, "Look up in the tree, there sits the one who is to blame."

Does the author's voice, or unique use of language, make her argument more or less effective (challenges for space exploration)

Answers

Hello. Unfortunately, I was unable to access the article to which your question refers, which makes it impossible for me to give you an exact answer. However, I will try to help you as best I can.

An argument becomes more or less effective through the use of evidence and through the author's language, that is, an author needs to present an appropriate language to the audience he wants to reach with the article. For example, if the author wants to present the challenges of space exploration to a non-expert public in the field, he must present a simple, direct language without specific and professional terms so that the argument is efficient and understandable by the public.

In addition, he must show a lot of text evidence that justifies and proves everything he is arguing, so that the argument is strong, informative, correct and effective.

In this case, to answer this question, you must read the article, identify the audience the author wants to reach and if this language is efficient to reach that audience. Then, you should note if the author uses efficient evidence that can justify and prove the argument presented in the article.

This assignment will springboard off of the Photo Memoir essay you wrote in Unit 2. Revisit your photo memoir essay and research a historical event that occurred during that time period. In lieu of research, you may use primary sources such as family letters or documents that could be used to provide background for your essay. Rework the photo memoir essay to incorporate the historically significant information into a new essay that argues a point based on the graphic and textual sources you gathered. Cite the sources both implicitly and explicitly within your essay.

Here is the memoir I wrote
“It is what it is”. Though it’s a cliche phrase, this is the photograph that I’ve selected to discuss. It may sound trite, this quote possesses a deeper meaning. When life seems to be out of control, it causes me to feel overwhelmed. It’s an instinct that I immediately want to take matters into my own hands, but in some situations, this is not feasible. This quote represents a deeper meaning that I cannot control things that are beyond me. Furthermore, the topic of discussion will revolve around It Is What It Is.
It’s hard to deny that when situations in our life don't go our way or even how we had planned we don't get upset. In my case, this situation can ruin my day. For example, before a ski race I used to have an expectation for myself, and I would give my best performance on the hill. Sometimes I would come up short, and this is what used to upset me. Although at the time I didn't realize that I did everything in my control to win, so at the end of the day I was racing myself. How does this tie back to It Is What It Is? Well, it seems that increasingly often you hear the phrase, “It is what it is.” I was taking the phrase to mean, “It’s not this and it’s not that; it’s something more subtle that I don’t have a name for, and I’m ok with that.” This actively demonstrates that you're ok with things not going your way, and this can lead to better self-development. By letting things hang in an uncategorized state in their mind they may slowly come to a richer, more nuanced understanding of it, which may lead to a new insight or invention.
Although there are benefits to It Is What It Is, the phrase comes with downfalls. For example, when you do have the power to change something going wrong, and you use the phrase it may come more across as giving up. Another way of saying this would be if somebody needs your help, and you have the power to help them, although you decide not to because you think the outcome is inevitable. Even though there is this downfall it does not ruin the phrase. You just have to use it at the correct time. For instance, the correct time to use this phrase would be when something is out of your control, and you are struggling to cope with it. The phrase wasn't meant to give up, it's less meant to deal with it. This phrase oddly enough has helped me cope with things that are out of my control.
To sum up, everything that has been stated so far It Is What It Is is an expression used to characterize a frustrating or challenging situation that a person believes cannot be changed and must just be accepted. In saying this it demonstrates more regard for I won't let something out of my control affect me.

The piglets were extremely excited to investigate the barn. They found the smallest details fascinating. Not all of them were so eager to explore, though. The little piglet seemed aloof. Not exactly shy, she seemed distant and satisfied with observing the others as they did all the work.

Which word from the passage helps explain the meaning of aloof?

1. Eager 2. Shy 3. Distant 5. Satisfied

Answers

Answer:

It would be 3. Distant

Explanation:

It can't be eager because the sentence after says that she was distant from the others as they did all the work. It also states that she wasn't shy but distant and satisfied. However, aloof wouldn't mean satisfied because aloof means to remove or distant either physically or emotionally while satisfied is nothing near that definition.

Socrates was accused of atheism and corrupting the youth, charges that were closely linked to each other since religion was one of the fundamental pillars in ancient Greece. Thus, atheism was the negation of the social order itself, that is, the negation of the fundamental pillars of the Greek society of the time. Then, transmitting said atheism was considered by the authorities as a way of corrupting young people, making them, like him, contrary to the social order. Therefore, his actions were considered crimes by the Athenian authorities.
