Explain the symbolism of ole looking at the wall and not leaving his room

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Ole's looking at the wall and not leaving the room symbolizes the dark side of the American life.

Explanation:

"The Killers" is a short story written by Ernest Hemingway. The story is about the former prizefighter, Ole  Anderson, who's been living in a small house outside of Chicago.

In the story, two killers are after Ole to kill him, for a reason unrevealed by the author. But it is assumed that he might have done something which made someone to hire killers to kill him. When Nick comes to his cottage to warn him of his killers and danger to his life, Ole did not reply to him. He was reluctant to leave his room and kept looking at the wall intently.

This symbolizes the dark side of American Life, the life of old men who loses their interest in life after spending youth actively. For them, death and life becomes equal. They begin to think death as an escape route from their loneliness, dullness, and emptiness of life.

In Star Wars, Luke Skywalker goes from being a simple farm boy to a Jedi master. What kind of character is he?

a. Static
b. Simple
c. individual
d. dynamic

Answers

Answer: Luke Skywalker is a dynamic character.

Explanation: He is dynamic because you can check out all the other answers. A static character is one who doesn't evolve over the course of the story and Luke changes throughout the story. A simple character is a character who has fewer complex parts than a more complex character and we know that Luke is complex because one he is a protagonist and two he contributes a lot to the story. Finally, while Luke partly is an individual character, he shows more signs of being dynamic than of all the other options.

Answer:

D - Dynamic character

Answer: The General wouldn't have realized he was the Drummer boy, he would have played the drum slowly and the soldiers would have lost the war.

Explanation: When the General heard the drum he realized that the boy was "the heart of the army". He told the boy that if he played his drum rapidly, the soldiers would feel less pain and be braver, because the sound would be like "their armor".

Round to 2 decimal places 0.861

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

0.861=0.86

Answer:

0.86

Explanation:

This is so because when rounding off decimal places we have to consider whether the last number is 5 or above 5 and also if the number is bellow 5. So in this case the last decimal place which is 1 is below 5 so we just cut it off. But if it was 5 or above we would have added a 1 to the following number which in this case is 6, so the answer would have been 0.87 but it's not because the last digit is below 5.
