Based on Hawthorne’s description in Chapter 3 of The Scarlet Letter, which word best describes Master Dimmesdale?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The Scarlet Letter was written by  Nathaniel Hawthorne and explores the themes of legalism, guilt and sin. It tells the story of a young woman who is thought to have committed adultery. She refuses to tell anyone who the father of her child is. Her punishment is to wear a scarlet letter on her chest for the rest of her life. She is thus branded as a sinner and there can be no forgiveness for her crime. Master Dimmesdale is a young minister who tries to convince the town fathers that it is unfair to force the young women to confess her sins in public. Based on the above, the word that best describes Master Dimmesdale is "Compassionate".

b. king, lord, clergy, knight, serf
c. king, clergy, knight, lord
d. lord, serf, knight, king, clergy

Answers

The sequence of the feudal hierarchy that starts from the uppermost tier are the king / monarch,knights/vassals,barons/nobles, and villagers/peasants/serfs. The king would rule the whole kingdom, the barons or nobles would lease the lands from the king. The barons were the second most wealthiest in the kingdom. The knights were the ones who received the leased lands for their service to the crown. The villeins/serfs were given land by the knights in return for growing crops and supplying food to the and services, such as cleaning and working, to their superiors. They were the poorest in the land. So, from the answer choices given, the correct answer is B, king, lord, clergy, knight, and serf.

Combine the following sentences into one well-written sentence that contains all the ideas in these sentences. Use an appositive.The invention of the scuba regulator made underwater exploration possible for the average vacationer.

The combined sentence would be: 
The invention of the scuba regulator, a device that allows a diver to breathe compressed air from a tank, made underwater exploration possible for the average vacationer.

The second sentence is used as an appositive to the noun it directly describes, which is the "scuba regulator".

(30 points I THINK is how it works when choosing points, that goes to whoever helps me.) Although the poems, "The Lamb" and "The Tyger," address the same concept, the tone is different in each.

Can you guys help me explain how they differ using supporting evidence from the poems. I'd really appreciate it ^-^ <3 <3 <3

THE LAMB

Little lamb, who made thee?
Does thou know who made thee,
Gave thee life, and bid thee feed
By the stream and o'er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing, woolly, bright;
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Making all the vales rejoice?
Little lamb, who made thee?
Does thou know who made thee?
Little lamb, I'll tell thee;
Little lamb, I'll tell thee:
He is called by thy name,
For He calls Himself a Lamb.
He is meek, and He is mild,
He became a little child.
I a child, and thou a lamb,
We are called by His name.
Little lamb, God bless thee!
Little lamb, God bless thee!



THE TYGER

Tiger, tiger, burning brigh
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare seize the fire?
And what shoulder and what art
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And, when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand and what dread feet?
What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
When the stars threw down their spears,
And watered heaven with their tears,
Did He smile His work to see?
Did He who made the lamb make thee?
Tiger, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry.

Best way i can explain it is the little lamb seems like shrek "love and life" but the tiger one sounds like pure rage .-. hard to explain evidence would be the messaged conveyed/ difference in tone

Which lines in this excerpt from the poem "Consumption" by William Cullen Bryant reflect the theme of the poem? (The word consumption refers to tuberculosis.) The fields for thee have no medicinal leaf, And the vexed ore no mineral of power; And they who love thee wait in anxious grief Till the slow plague shall bring the final hour. Glide softly to thy rest then; Death should come Gently, to one of gentle mould like thee, As light winds wandering through groves of bloom Detach the delicate blossom from the tree. Close thy sweet eyes, calmly, and without pain; And we will trust in God to see thee yet again.

Answers

I think that the lines that best mirrors the theme of the poem of WIlliam Cullen Bryant entitled as "Consumption'' would be these parts:

'Glide softly to thy rest then;
Death should come Gently, 
to one of gentle mould like thee, 
As light winds wandering through groves of bloom'

I chose it because being consumed by the disease is mirrored with death coming gently 'into the mould' or the person.

Answer:

The correct answers are:

"Glide softly to thy rest then;"

"And we will trust in God to see thee yet again."
