Read the fifth stanza from “The Raven.”

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before
But the silence was unbroken, and the stillness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, "Lenore!"
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, "Lenore!"
Merely this and nothing more.

A.How does this incident move the action of the poem forward?

B.The speaker again refers to Lenore, and the reader sees that his sorrow is all about his lost love.

C.The speaker refers to Lenore for the very first time here; the reader does not yet know who Lenore is.

D.This is a turning point in the poem, as the speaker begins to descend into madness.

E.This is a turning point in the poem, as the speaker begins to accept his loss.​

Explanation:

As often with the works of Edgar Allen Poe, insanity is to be expected. When Poe describes a dark and morbid setting it makes you the reader feel alone and scared. Crying out to the dead as if they were still there is often telling the reader something is going to happen to the main character and it involves the person. This is called foreshadowing, and this specifically shows a clear descend into madness.

Can anyone tell me a oxymoron or Alliteration in the story all summer in a day. Please put the page number if possible :)

Answers

Answer:

Example of oximoron: silent scream

Alliteration example: “… it was a blazing blue tile color.”

Explanation:

Oximoro is the figure of speech that brings together words of opposite meanings, but when placed together they emit a new and understandable meaning, usually with a high poetic and subjective content.

Alliteration, on the other hand, is the figure of speech that promotes the repetition of consonant phonemes that are very similar, or the same in the same sentence.

Why does the author likely include the final section titled "Everyday Decision-Making" in the article?

Why does the author likely include the final section titled “Everyday Decision-Making” in the article?

A  to show how not every case of herd behavior is necessarily negative or violent

B  to show that herd behavior also occurs in smaller groups

C  to demonstrate how herd behavior allows individuals to avoid risks

D  to acknowledge that herd behavior is a problem that everyone faces

Explanation:

The correct answer is option A  to show how not every case of herd behavior is necessarily negative or violent.

 This question is based on the article "Herd Behavior" and with the final section titled "Everyday Decision-Maker" the author tries to show how following the herd does not always lead to a bad result.

Here is an example of a restaurant and how the actions of other people influence our own decisions, when heading to a full restaurant just because other people are already there.

Romeo and Juliet -

How would you describe the character, Romeo?

Please provide 3 points outlining his character.

Each point should have its own paragraph.

This is due very soon and I need it ASAP.

Thank you. ​

Answers

Answer:

Romeo's character has been interpreted in a number of ways by critics, but most would agree that he is portrayed, certainly early in the play, as particularly prone to falling in love. He is in love with Rosaline at the opening of the play, and distraught because she will not return his love. Yet within moments after meeting Juliet, he has forgotten all about his former love interest and is completely infatuated with his new love. All of Romeo's friends, especially Mercutio and Friar Lawrence, chide him for this characteristic, which strikes them as fickle. 

Related to this trait is Romeo's impulsiveness. After only a very brief encounter with Juliet, he is prepared to marry her. It is also true, of course, that she wants to marry him as well, so this characteristic is more a comment on the impulsiveness of youth rather than anything inherent about Romeo's character. Still, on multiple instances throughout the play, he takes actions without considering the consequences, such as when he kills Tybalt. 

Finally, some readers might conclude that Romeo is still rather childish and somewhat self-absorbed. For example, when he learns that he is to be banished rather than executed for killing Tybalt, he throws himself to the ground weeping, and is rebuked by the Friar for doing so. He does not recognize his good fortune. However, it could be persuasively argued that this act only demonstrates the depth of his love for Juliet.
