Kafka originally referred to Gregor's parents as "the mother" and "the father." However, the translator refers to them as "his mother" and "his father." How does the use of "the" in the original affect the tone of the story? A. It creates a more supportive feeling in the story. B. It creates a more isolated feeling in the story. C. It makes Gregor's transformation seem more positive. D. It makes Gregor's parents seem more important.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. It makes Gregor's parents seem more important.

Explanation:

This question is about "Metamorphosis" written by Kafka, which tells the story of Gregor's transformation into a giant insect.

The relationship between Gregor and his parents is not very good, as it is a cold and very impersonal relationship, where Gregor does not have family and emotional support. This makes Gregor's parents less important in the story and provokes little public interest, for this reason, the author decides to present them in a more impersonal way as "the father" and "the mother." However, Gregor's transformation makes his family more important to the story, as he becomes dependent on the family. This increases the importance of his parents in the story, making the author present them in a more specific and punctual way, highlighting their importance in Gregor's life. For this reason, the author introduces them as "his mother" and "his father."

(from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, by Robert Louis Stevenson)
Read the passage carefully and then answer the question.

Two doors from one corner, on the left hand going east the line was broken by the entry of a court; and just at that point a certain sinister block of building thrust forward its gable on the street. It was two storeys high; showed no window, nothing but a door on the lower storey and a blind forehead of discoloured wall on the upper; and bore in every feature, the marks of prolonged and sordid negligence. The door, which was equipped with neither bell nor knocker, was blistered and distained. Tramps slouched into the recess and struck matches on the panels; children kept shop upon the steps; the schoolboy had tried his knife on the mouldings; and for close on a generation, no one had appeared to drive away these random visitors or to repair their ravages.

Mr. Enfield and the lawyer were on the other side of the by-street; but when they came abreast of the entry, the former lifted up his cane and pointed.

"Did you ever remark that door?" he asked; and when his companion had replied in the affirmative. "It is connected in my mind," added he, "with a very odd story."

"Indeed?" said Mr. Utterson, with a slight change of voice, "and what was that?"

The word in bold is an example of what kind of tone?

A. uninviting.

B. confusing.

C. exciting.

D. thrilling.

Answers

Answer: I would say this is an example of an uninviting tone, in my opinion.

Explanation: Not only is the excerpt taking on a more negative approach to storytelling, but when, say, walking into a room and seeing people coiled into their seats, keeping to themselves, most people wouldn't see that as confusing, exciting, or thrilling but uninviting. Nothing about this normally unenergetic and tired pose warrants a stimulating reaction.

Why does the summary need to be revised?

Answers

Answer:

This summary needs to be revise because it lacks transition words to connect the ideas.

Explanation:

The summary we are analyzing here is about the story "The Beginnings of of the Maasai," which explains the origins of the Maasai culture and the people's relationship with Enkai, their god. The Maasai are a semi-nomadic indigenous group settled in Tanzania and Kenya.

The problem with the summary is that is lacks transition words. As their name suggests, transition words are used to transition from one idea or sentence to the next. Examples are: so, then, after that, because of that, in addition, etc. Let's revise the summary and add a few transition words to see how much better it sounds and how much more smoothly the ideas flow:

"As a result of a volcanic eruption, Enkai and the cattle were thrown inot the sky. Enkai wanted to save his cattle, so he grew a tree that bridged the sky and the earth. Thus, the cattle walked down the tree to Neiterkob. Then, Neiterkob and the Maasai tribe took over caring for the cattle."

Answers

1 Initial Consonant - jar, juice, horse, bee, suite


2 Initial Consonant - sky, crabs, pneumonia, fly, Britain, tray, choir


3 Initial Consonant - straight, scratch, shrink

One initial consonant: sky, jar, fly, horse, Britain, and scratch. Two initial consonant: crabs, bee, juice, tray.

What is consonant?

A consonant is a speech sound produced by partially or completely blocking the flow of air out of the mouth with the speech organs in linguistics.

Consonants are made by restricting the vocal tract in some way, usually with the lips, tongue, teeth, and/or glottis. An initial consonant is a consonant that is pronounced at the beginning of a word.

Vowels do not function as consonants. There are five vowels in the English language (a, e, i, o, u), and the remaining letters are consonants.

The task specifically requests words with one, two, or three initial consonants, so vowels must be avoided.

Here,

One initial consonant: sky, jar, fly, horse, Britain, and scratch.Two initial consonant: crabs, bee, juice, tray.Three initial consonant: straight, pneumonia, suite, shrink, and choir.

Thus, these are the consonants present.
