Non-standard English: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Getting to grips with unusual English writing
Pretty soon I wanted to smoke, and asked the widow to let me. But she
wouldn’t. She said it was a mean practice and wasn’t clean, and I must try
not to do it any more. That is just the way with some people. They get down
on a thing when they don’t know nothing about it. Here she was a-bothering
about Moses, which was no kin to her, and no use to anybody, being gone,
you see, yet finding a power of fault with me for doing a thing that had
some good in it. And she took snuff, too; of course that was all right,
because she done it herself.
Her sister Miss Watson, a tolerable, slim old maid, with goggles on,
had just come to live with her, and took a set at me now with a spellingbook. She worked me middling hard for about an hour, and then the widow
made her ease up. I couldn’t stood it much longer. Then for an hour it was
deadly dull, and I was fidgety. Miss Watson would say, “Don’t put your feet
up there, Huckleberry;” and “Don’t scrunch up like that, Huckleberry – set
up straight;” and pretty soon she would say, “Don’t gap and stretch like that,
Huckleberry – why don’t you try to behave?” Then she told me all about the
bad place, and I said I wished I was there. She got mad then, but I didn’t
mean no harm. All I wanted was to go somewheres; all I wanted was a
change, I warn’t particular. She said it was wicked to say what I said; said
she wouldn’t say it for the whole world; she was going to live so as to go to
the good place. Well, I couldn’t see no advantage in going where she was
going, so I made up my mind I wouldn’t try for it. But I never said so,
because it would only make trouble, and wouldn’t do no good.

Which of the following novels most closely resembles Brave New World?
A.) The Hunger Games
B.) Utopia
C.) Nineteen Eighty-Four
D.) The Tempest
Explanation:
Brave New World is a dystopian social science fiction novel by English author Aldous Huxley, written in 1931 and published in 1932. Largely set in a futuristic World State, whose citizens are environmentally engineered into an intelligence-based social hierarchy, the novel anticipates huge scientific advancements in reproductive technology, sleep-learning, psychological manipulation and classical conditioning that are combined to make a dystopian society which is challenged by only a single individual: the story's protagonist. Huxley followed this book with a reassessment in essay form, Brave New World Revisited (1958), and with his final novel, Island (1962), the utopian counterpart. The novel is often compared to George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four (published 1949).In 1999, the Modern Library ranked Brave New World at number 5 on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century.[2] In 2003, Robert McCrum, writing for The Observer, included Brave New World chronologically at number 53 in "the top 100 greatest novels of all time",[3] and the novel was listed at number 87 on The Big Read survey by the BBC.[4]

A Tempest
An awful tempest mashed the air,
The clouds were gaunt and few;
A black, as of a spectre’s1
cloak,
Hid heaven and earth from view.
The creatures chuckled on the roofs
And whistled in the air,
And shook their fists and gnashed their teeth.
And swung their frenzied hair.
The morning lit, the birds arose;
The monster’s faded eyes
Turned slowly to his native coast,
And peace was Paradise!
- by Emily Dickinson

Read the following quote from Betty Bonham Lies's retelling of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. When Orpheus made music, all the world stopped to listen. Wild beasts drew near him, so entranced they put aside their fierceness. Trecs gathered around to hear his beautiful notes. Rivers stopped flowing along the banks so that they could hear Orpheus, whose music was more harmonious than theirs. The very rocks softened when he touched his lyre. what does the use of hyperbole accomplish?

if one uses a term like "giant shrimp", one creates a) An allusion b) A paradox c) Sarcasm d) An oxymoron
Answer:
d) An oxymoron
Explanation:
A figures of speech is also referred to as figurative language and it can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by writers, authors or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or literary work (write-ups).
In English literature, the main purpose of the figures of speech (figurative language) is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of a literary work. Some examples of the figures of speech (figurative language) used in literature are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, oxymoron, etc.
An oxymoron can be defined as a figurative language that comprises of words or phrases that are contradictory.
This ultimately implies that, an oxymoron involves the intentional use of words or phrases that have opposite meanings.
Hence, if one uses a term like "giant shrimp", one creates an oxymoron because shrimps are small in all ramifications and cannot be referred to as a giant.
In conclusion, "giant shrimp" qualifies as an oxymoron because the words "giant" and "the small nature of a shrimp" are contradictory i.e have opposite meanings.

What do you mean by Embarrassment?An unpleasant but significant emotional state is embarrassment. Most scholars agree that humiliation serves as a type of internal feedback, making people feel awful about their social or personal failures so they can learn not to repeat them.
The subsequent physiological changes, such as blushing, sweating, or stammering, may indicate to others that a person is not cold-hearted or oblivious and that they are aware of their own fault.
The fact that the triggering event could be either positive or negative is noteworthy. For instance, someone could feel just as humiliated by being referred to as gorgeous in front of a crowd as they might by forgetting someone's name or tripping in front of others.

write an account on frighten thing you have witness
Answer and Explanation:
My story took place one day in my childhood, when only my younger brother and I were at home. My parents needed to leave the house for a few hours and we were left alone, however my brother who was a much younger child than me started exploring the house. He climbed onto a chair and began to fiddle with broken glass that was on top of my backyard wall. I didn't see what he was doing until I heard a very loud scream. I ran out into the yard and could see my brother with a bloody hand and broken glass stuck in it. I was also a kid at the time and I was very scared, but I had to help him by pulling the broken glass out of his hand and trying to stop the bleeding. Although everything worked out in the end, but that was a very scary experience that I witnessed.
beliefs in my culture speech
Answer:
Hinduism is not an organized religion and has no single, systematic approach to teaching its value system. Nor do Hindus have a simple set of rules to follow like the Ten Commandments. Local, regional, caste, and community-driven practices influence the interpretation and practice of beliefs throughout the Hindu world.
Yet a common thread among all these variations is belief in a Supreme Being and adherence to certain concepts such as Truth, dharma, and karma. And belief in the authority of the Vedas (sacred scriptures) serves, to a large extent, as the very definition of a Hindu, even though how the Vedas are interpreted may vary greatly.
Here are some of the key beliefs shared among Hindus:
Truth is eternal.
Hindus pursue knowledge and understanding of the Truth: the very essence of the universe and the only Reality. According to the Vedas, Truth is One, but the wise express it in a variety of ways.
Brahman is Truth and Reality.
Hindus believe in Brahman as the one true God who is formless, limitless, all-inclusive, and eternal. Brahman is not an abstract concept; it is a real entity that encompasses everything (seen and unseen) in the universe.
The Vedas are the ultimate authority.
The Vedas are Hindu scriptures that contain revelations received by ancient saints and sages. Hindus believe that the Vedas are without beginning and without end; when everything else in the universe is destroyed (at the end of a cycle of time), the Vedas remain.
Everyone should strive to achieve dharma.
Understanding the concept of dharma helps you understand the Hindu faith. Unfortunately, no single English word adequately covers its meaning. Dharma can be described as right conduct, righteousness, moral law, and duty. Anyone who makes dharma central to one’s life strives to do the right thing, according to one’s duty and abilities, at all times.
Individual souls are immortal.
A Hindu believes that the individual soul (atman) is neither created nor destroyed; it has been, it is, and it will be. Actions of the soul while residing in a body require that it reap the consequences of those actions in the next life — the same soul in a different body.
The process of movement of the atman from one body to another is known as transmigration. The kind of body the soul inhabits next is determined by karma (actions accumulated in previous lives). Learn more about Hindu funeral customs.
The goal of the individual soul is moksha.
Moksha is liberation: the soul’s release from the cycle of death and rebirth. It occurs when the soul unites with Brahman by realizing its true nature. Several paths can lead to this realization and unity: the path of duty, the path of knowledge, and the path of devotion (unconditional surrender to God).
Explanation:
Which features of tanka appear in "The clustering clouds..." and "When I went to visit..."?
Answer:
Both poems capture a sad image in a natural setting.
Explanation:
A tanka is a poetry form that has five lines with unrhymed words. It is a traditional Japanese poetry form with the structure of five/seven/five/seven/seven syllables in the poem.
The poems "The clustering clouds..." by Minamoto no Toshiyori and Ki no Tsurayuki's "When I went to visit..." both have the qualities of a tanka. Both poems capture a sad image in a natural setting.
And a tanka is a traditional form, their English-translated version may differ in the number of lines or syllables. Therefore the focus should be on the imagery and emotion of the poem rather than the structure.
