Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog, when it seemed as if a tangible white darkness shut you in, and the great ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore with plummet and sounding-line, and you waited with beating heart for something to happen? What is helen comparing herself to

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not include any text, book, or reference of these lines. You neither included the options for this question.

However, doing some deep research trying to help you, we found that you are referring to the book titled "The Story of My Life," written by Helen Keller.

So knowing that valuable information, we can say the following.

What Helen is comparing herself to is with the moment in her life where she had no clue about what to do with her path. She said that those moments were like she advanced without a compass, having no clue at all where "the harbor was."

The exact words she used in her text are: "I was like that ship before my education began, only I was without compass or sounding line, and had no way of knowing how near the harbor was."

That is why she thinks that her education was essential to fiend her way, Her education gave her knowledge, and most importantly, it gave her direction.

Answer 2

Answer: The answer is A

"It allows the reader to feel how lost Helen feels before she learns to communicate."

Explanation: It makes the most sense.

it’s kind of like a discussion question and it has to be at least a paragraph:
“ Free will means the choice to think” or not

Answers

Free will does not include the choice to think

Explanation:

As a society with free will, we have the right to how we communicate and express our ideas with others. But the choice to think on whatever you want however you want does not matter if you have the free will or not. Even if the rights to communicate our ideals and beliefs with others might be taken away, our thought process will not change. The only way our thoughts can be governed by another is through psychological techniques like brainwashing. But, given normal circumstances, no matter what the outside world thinks, the choice to think is a given human right and no law can prove otherwise.

summary of The

purple children​

Answers

Answer:

Ellis Peters is the "pen name" of Edith Pargeter. As Peters, she wrote mostly detective fiction and used other names for other genres. The Brother Medieval Mysteries is probably her best-known in this category and was made into a TV series, The Brother Cadfael Chronicles. Influenced by her own involvement in the Second World War as a WREN (Women's Royal Navy Service), Pargeter also wrote historical novels and, after a visit to Czechoslovakia, Pargeter translated Czech poetry and prose.

Edith Pargeter's short stories include The Purple Children which is about the British occupation of Cyprus. A young eighteen-year-old British sentry is on duty one evening and is he startled from a sleepy state by a local girl of about fifteen. He overhears her calling her cat and urges her to return home due to the curfew imposed on the town. She insists that she must find her cat because it runs away; her cat cannot be told to observe the curfew.  

The girl pleads with the sentry, certain she can find her cat if he will just let her through the gate. He is aware that she is close to tears and considers his "orders," thinking that he must treat the "natives politely," especially as the locals blatantly show their hatred. He decides that this "waif" could not possibly pose a threat and, although he doesn't intend to, he opens the gate and lets her through, staying close to her. Turning his back on the gate he is supposed to be protecting, he follows her. When he sees the cat, he is relieved but it takes a further ten minutes before they can corner it and catch it. She thanks him and almost immediately the girl's real purpose is revealed as a boy jumps down from the flagpole and he and the girl run away, leaving the sentry boy in the courtyard and a commotion around him because he fired his paintball gun to stop the "fugitives." The children have replaced the British flag with their own.

They both realized how late it was for them to do anything until it happened to them finally.

Both the speaker and the little rabbit laments about feeling guilty for not speaking or fighting for others. It was only until when trouble came looking for them they realized that there was no one to seek help from.

Their actions are similar in ways like not speaking out when the time was right and not helping one another in times of trouble. Both of them desires to become responsible and fight for those who are being subjugated and troubled.
