Read this excerpt from "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty."
Walter Mitty stopped the car in front of the building where his wife went to have her hair done. "Remember to get those overshoes while I’m having my hair done," she said. "I don’t need overshoes," said Mitty. She put her mirror back into her bag. "We’ve been all through that," she said, getting out of the car. "You’re not a young man any longer." He raced the engine a little. "Why don’t you wear your gloves? Have you lost your gloves?" Walter Mitty reached in a pocket and brought out the gloves. He put them on, but after she had turned and gone into the building and he had driven on to a red light, he took them off again.

Explanation:
"The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" that tells the story of Mitty, who is a man who disconnects himself from the reality in which he lives, constantly, and finds himself trapped in heroic daydreams totally outside the reality in which he is inserted. Although this is not valued by the characters in the book, it does create an empathy between the bed and Mitty.

Pls help I just need 4 or 5 sentences for a pre writing about a Greek mythical character
Answer:
Zeus was saved from being eaten by his father Kronos. When he was older Zeus rescued his brothers and sisters, fought his father and the other Titans and banished them. He and his brothers then drew lots to divide rule of the world. Zeus became the god of the sky, Poseidon, the god of the sea, and Hades, the god of the underworld. Zeus was also known as the father of the gods on Mount Olympus and men.
Explanation:
Answer:
In Greek mythology, Medusa (/mɪˈdjuːzə, -sə/; Μέδουσα "guardian, protectress")[1] also called Gorgo, was one of the three monstrous Gorgons, generally described as winged human females with living venomous snakes in place of hair. It is in the Roman poet Ovid’s Metamorphoses that her story is most deeply elaborated. She was lovely, according to the poem—until she and Poseidon had sex in Athena’s temple.[2] Athena then punished her for this violation, by turning her into the monstrous, stony-glanced creature that we know. Thus those who gazed into her eyes would turn to stone. Most sources describe her as the daughter of Phorcys and Ceto,[3] although the author Hyginus makes her the daughter of Gorgon and Ceto.[4]
Medusa was beheaded by the Greek hero Perseus, who thereafter used her head, which retained its ability to turn onlookers to stone, as a weapon[5] until he gave it to the goddess Athena to place on her shield. In classical antiquity the image of the head of Medusa appeared in the evil-averting device known as the Gorgoneion.
According to Hesiod and Aeschylus, she lived and died on an island named Sarpedon, somewhere near Cisthene. The 2nd-century BC novelist Dionysios Skytobrachion puts her somewhere in Libya, where Herodotus had said the Berbers originated her myth, as part of their religion. She remained a priestess to Athena after her death and was risen with fresh hair.

prompt:
Obviously the characters in Shakespeare's play find Mark
Antony's speech really convincing, but Shakespeare wrote the
play so that they would. But if you were to remove the easily
swayed audience and replace it with a more objective audience,
Mark Antony's speech would still stand up as a convincing work
of rhetoric.
Answer:
I agree with the statement.
Explanation:
Marco Antonio's speech is loaded with rhetorical resources. He uses ethos, logos and pathos in a masterful way, acting ethically, reaching the audience's emotional and showing logic in his words. A speech with this type of structure would be able to convince any audience, even the most difficult and intellectual. This is one of the reasons that make "The Tragedy of Julio Cesar" one of the most relevant works of Shakespeare until today.
The most influential point in this speech is the way in which Marco Antonio ennobles Julio César, showing the population how he carried himself with the people he ruled and that all his deeds were done to magnify the people.

One primary theme of Jack London's The call of the wild is the conflict between civilization and wildness. We realise the difference between the two when the protagonist of the story, Buck is kidnapped and taken to Alaska. Chapter Two of the story is called the law of club and fang. The law of club is what Buck's master puts in place in order for buck to obey. The law of fang however can be described as the rules of "wild" dogs which are set to determine and maintain hierarchy. Buck struggles to adapt to the changes that are now around him for he wad once a gentleman's dog.
When Buck meets his second owner John Thornton he feels as though he has finally found a steady footing. In a way Thornton's death allows Buck to release his caged up instincts.
The correct response is - The clash between civilization and wildness is one of Jack London's main themes in The call of the wild. When the story's protagonist Buck is abducted and sent to Alaska, we become aware of the differences between the two. The rule of club and fang is the title of Chapter 2 of the narrative.

Figure, as the work is called, emerged

Fortunato is dressed as a fool. He is also very concerned about the Amontillado and
doesn't want Montresor to call upon Luchresi's expertise. What is the significance of
these details?
Answer:
Montresor is trying to tell the readers that Fortunato is weak and has too much pride to ask questions. He is trying to make a fool out of him.
Explanation:
The sentence shows that Fortunato was so foolish to outsmart Luchresi that he didn't suspect why Montressor was taking him to the catacombs.
Although you have not shown the text this question refers to, we can see from the context of the question that you are referring to "The Cask of Amontillado," written by Edgar Alan Poe.
As we read this short story, we can get the following information:
Montressor holds a strong grudge about something Fortunato did to him.Because of this grudge, he decides to get revenge on Fortunato, trapping him inside the wall of a catacomb and leaving him there to die.He makes a plan to take Fortunato to the catacombs, and that plan consists of calling him to assess the quality of the amontillado.Fortunado doesn't know how to assess the amontillado, but he thinks about doing it to make Luchresi, his rival, envious.Fortunato wants so much to make Luchresi jealous that he doesn't suspect why he's being taken to the catacombs. This makes Montressor think Fortunato is a fool.With that, we can see that Poe created characters with feelings so intense that it makes them not notice obvious things. These negative feelings make Montressor not see a peaceful way to solve his problems with Fortunato and does not allow Fortunato to realize that he is in a dangerous environment.
