What is significant about
the last sentence of the
novel?
Why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The last sentence in the novel is also the first sentence of the novel.

When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house, I had only two things on my mind: Paul Newman and a ride home.

Explanation:

Chapter 5, page 77:

"The mist is what was pretty," Johnny said. "All gold and silver."

"Uhmmmm," I said, trying to blow a smoke ring.

"Too bad it couldn't stay like that all the time."

"Nothing gold can stay." I was remembering a poem I'd read once.

"What?"

"Natures first green is gold,

Her hardest hue to hold.

Her early leaf's a flower,

But only so an hour.

Then leaf subsides to leaf.

So Eden sank to grief,

So dawn goes down to day.

Nothing gold can stay."

Johnny was staring at me. "Where'd you learn that. That was what I meant."

The book is The Giver!
Write a short essay in about 300 words that answers the following question: What role does dialogue play in developing the novel’s main conflict? Use textual evidence from the novel to support your answer.

A central conflict in The Giver occurs when Jonas opposes the restrictions placed on him by his authoritarian society. After receiving the memories of the community, he stops taking the pills that are supposed to curb his emotions and feelings. This event seems to be leading to a climax. In the end, Jonas may leave the community to preserve his emotions and have complete freedom.
This is the dialogue I used...
"Father? Mother?" Jonas asked tentatively after the evening meal. "I have a question I want to ask you."
"What is it, Jonas?" his father asked.
He made himself say the words, though he felt flushed with embarrassment. He had rehearsed them in his mind all the way home from the Annex.
"Do you love me?"
There was an awkward silence for a moment. Then Father gave a little chuckle. "Jonas. You, of all people. Precision of language, please!"
"What do you mean?" Jonas asked. Amusement was not at all what he had anticipated.
"Your father means that you used a very generalized word, so meaningless that it's become almost obsolete," his mother explained carefully.
Jonas stared at them. Meaningless? He had never before felt anything as meaningful as the memory.
"And of course our community can't function smoothly if people don't use precise language. You could ask, 'Do you enjoy me?' The answer is 'Yes,' " his mother said.
"Or," his father suggested, " 'Do you take pride in my accomplishments?' And the answer is wholeheartedly 'Yes.' "
"Do you understand why it's inappropriate to use a word like 'love'?" Mother asked.
Jonas nodded. "Yes, thank you, I do," he replied slowly.
It was his first lie to his parents.

HELPP WHATS THE STORY BEHIND THNIS PICTURE? use a metaphor or simile if u can

Answers

Answer:

I don't fully understand but you could relate it to the fact that even though the sky is bright and colourful, the closer object is torn and broken, hence the dripping of the rain which could symbolise tears, this could show that whilst the overall picture may be cheerful or positive, that doesn't mean that your emotions will reflect that, sometimes we ignore what's right in front of our eyes, it could also show that no matter what happens we will still experience sadness despite how much good we are surrounded by, hope this helps

Read the passage.

excerpt from "Why Equal Pay is Worth Fighting For" by Senator Elizabeth Warren, April 17, 2014

Women today still earn only 77 cents for every dollar a man earns, and they're taking a hit in nearly every occupation. Bloomberg analyzed Census data and found that median earnings for women were lower than those for men in 264 of 265 major occupation categories. In 99.6 percent of occupations, men get paid more than women. That's not an accident; that's discrimination.

Does the speaker provide sufficient evidence to prove her point that a wage gap exists?

Question 1 options:

Yes, because she presents multiple statistics that indicate a clear distinction between men's and women's earnings.


No, because although she provides statistics, she doesn't show that the difference in earnings is cause by intentional discrimination.


No, because although she provides statistics, she doesn't specify the different kinds of jobs to which the statistics refer.


Yes, because most of the audiences' experience would support the statistics in real life.

The 33-room home was built in the 1860s by William Lemp, a successful brewery owner who ended up killing himself in 1904 after the youngest of his four sons, Frederick, died. A few years later, his wife also died of cancer in the house. Then, in 1922, William Lemp Jr., shot himself in the same room William Sr. killed himself.

As if that weren't enough tragedy for one place, in 1949, Charles Lemp—William's third son—shot his dog in the basement of the home and then killed himself in his room. That same year, the house was sold and transformed into a boarding house, where reports of hauntings began. Everyone there was either k!lled or d!ed
