Why does Rachel say that she will be Esperanza's friend for five dollars and why does Esperanza agree to do it?

The House on Mango Street

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

In The House on Mango Street, Esperanza is hanging out with her neighborhood friend Cathy who offended Esperanza by suggesting that the neighborhood was getting bad because people like Esperanza and her family were moving in.

Whilst they were together, a girl named Rachel walked up to them and offers to be Esperanza's friend if Esperanza would give her five dollars for her and her sister to buy a second-hand bicycle.

Esperanza agrees over Cathy's objections because she figured that getting 2 new friends and partial ownership of a bicycle for $5 was a good deal.

Read the excerpt from "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God." Yea, God is a great deal more angry with great numbers that are now on earth; yea, doubtless with many that are now in this congregation, who it may be are at ease, than he is with many of those that are now in the flames of hell. What does this excerpt suggest about Edwards's opinion of society?

Answers

Answer:

This excerpt shows that Edward viewed society as made up of sinners.

Explanation:

Theologian Jonathan Edwards claimed in this excerpt that God was angrier with the countless people on earth and in his congregation, who were comfortable in their sinful ways even more than he was with the sinners who were already paying for their sins in hell.

He believed that society was made up of sinful people. Even his congregation had a lot of people whose ways were not pleasing in the sight of God.

Answer:

A.

He feels society in general, including many members of the     congregation, is more sinful now than ever.

The mood of this book is suspenseful/dark.

Which view of nature do you think is the correct one? Thoreaus or Louv's? Why do you think so?

Answers

Answer:

Henry David Thoreau — essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian — is one of America’s most well-known writers. He lived his entire life, from 1817 until 1862, in and around Concord, Massachusetts, and he remains popular among readers of all ages worldwide because the topics he wrote about are still relevant today. His political writings have inspired generations to take a stand, and his nature writing earned him the title of “the father of environmentalism.”

How much of our life is spent in self-reflection, and how does nature encourage and nurture self-knowledge and growth? Can spending time in nature clear our minds and help us work in a more focused and creative way? Can it make us better learners and better human beings?

In this Text to Text lesson plan, celebrating this year’s 200th anniversary of Thoreau’s birth, we take on some of those questions by pairing his 1851 piece, “Walking,” with a 2013 New York Times column “Time to Write? Go Outside” — then suggest eight activities for taking the learning further.

Answers

It is abstract. Joy is a feeling/emotion. Feelings and emotions are abstract nouns and are not tangible items.

If the word were “Joy”, with a capital letter, it would be abstract because the word is being used as a proper noun. In the case of this question, the word joy is abstract.

In Act I, Scene 1 of The Diary of Anne Frank, compare the setting to the action that occurs in the scene. Is the mood of the setting hopeful, frightening, or something else? Compare this to the actions of the scene to discuss how the setting and plot do or do not work together. Use specific quotations and examples in your response of about 150 words.

Answers

Answer:

It is very frightening because they can get caught easily and if they do, they will most likely get killed right there, tortured, or go to a concentration camp. They all are hoping not to get caught by the Nazis and hoping they have enough food when all this ends. It is frightening for the people who are hiding in the Secret Annex because if they make any noise between 6 a.m to 8 p.m the people who work down there will hear them and they will turn them in. They are also starting to argue who gets more food, which will turn out bad if they keep doing that. It would be very frightening if I was them and I wouldn't know what to think. The Nazis are at every block in the streets and if they see them through a window or such sort are getting killed. That's why I think it is very frightening.

Answers

Answer:

Kennedy addresses the audience in front of him as "you." He thinks everyone in this group will be saddened by the news. He also thinks the news will distress a much wider audience—"our fellow citizens" who aren't present at that moment to hear his speech.

The other two groups other than the audience of listeners that Kennedy mentions in his speech are "people around the world" and "newly independent nations, old allies, and the Soviet Union".

Who is Kennedy?

American politician John Fitzgerald Kennedy presided over the country as the 35th president from 1961 until his murder near the conclusion of his third year in office.

Kennedy in his inaugural speech mentions three groups to encourage Americans "to serve their country and the world" by reassuring them of the nation's strengths.

Compare/contrast the endings to Acts 1, 2, and 3. Why do you think Miller structured the endings similarly? Explain.

Answers

Hello. You did not say which Miller work this question refers to, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately.

However, the endings are terminal elements in words that have the objective of flexing them and keeping them in agreement with the number and gender of the words and the way and tense that the sentence presents. Thus, we can consider that the use of endings in a similar way, in Miller's work, was made not only to create verbal and nominal agreement, but to create a feeling of stability and sameness in the reader. Indicating that something would not change for a long time.
