Compare and contrast the experience of reading The Proposal to listening to an audio version. Did the manner in which any of the actors delivered their lines affect your interpretation of the dialogue? Also comment on the impact reading versus listening to stage directions had on the flow of the dialogue. Use examples from the play in your response.

Answers

Answer:

The experience of listening to an audio version of The Proposal was very different from reading it. While the actors’ line deliveries didn’t affect my interpretation of the dialogue, it helped make the play more funny and entertaining. For example, take this excerpt from the play:

LOMOV: But you can see from the documents, honoured Natalya Stepanovna. Oxen Meadows, it's true, were once the subject of dispute, but now everybody knows that they are mine. There's nothing to argue about. You see, my aunt's grandmother gave the free use of these Meadows in perpetuity to the peasants of your father's grandfather, in return for which they were to make bricks for her. The peasants belonging to your father's grandfather had the free use of the Meadows for forty years, and had got into the habit of regarding them as their own, when it happened that. . .

NATALYA STEPANOVNA: No, it isn't at all like that! Both my grandfather and great-grandfather reckoned that their land extended to Burnt Marsh—which means that Oxen Meadows were ours. I don't see what there is to argue about. It's simply silly!

LOMOV: I'll show you the documents, Natalya Stepanovna!

At first, I thought Lomov and Natalya were being civil toward one another. However, in the audio version, the actors’ voices are quite high-pitched, and they speak in a somewhat exaggerated manner. So the manner in which these actors deliver the lines in the audio version helped make it more humorous. Plus, the brash manner in which these lines are delivered provides a nice contrast to the polite manner in which Natalya and Lomov greet each other when they first come face-to-face in the play.

The stage directions didn’t affect the flow of the dialogue much. Hearing the stage directions read aloud in the play helped enhance the dialogue for me. Note this example from the play:

LOMOV: Well, you see, it's like this. [Takes his arm] I've come to you, honoured Stepan Stepanovitch, to trouble you with a request. Not once or twice have I already had the privilege of applying to you for help, and you have always, so to speak... I must ask your pardon, I am getting excited. I shall drink some water, honoured Stepan Stepanovitch. [Drinks.]

The stage directions from this excerpt helped me visualize what was happening, especially since I wasn’t following along with the print version of the play as I was listening.

I don't know about you, but if I was a multimillionaire, I'd use my wealth to make the world a better place. A. Change "was" to "could be." B. Change "I'd" to "I would." C. Change "was" to "were." D. Change "was" to "be."

Answers

Answer:

C. Change "was" to "were."

Explanation:

The subjunctive mood indicates a doubt. The verb were instead of was indicates a doubt.

It also indicates a wish , a demand or a suggestion which is contained in the second part of the sentence "I'd use my wealth to make the world a better place".

I'd use my wealth to make the world a better place; is correct

I would use my wealth to make the world a better place" is also correct

the difference of I'd and I would does not make any difference.

Read the excerpt from "A Defence of Poetry." Hence the fame of sculptors, painters, and musicians, although the intrinsic powers of the great masters of these arts may yield in no degree to that of those who have employed language as the hieroglyphic of their thoughts, has never equalled that of poets in the restricted sense of the term, as two performers of equal skill will produce unequal effects from a guitar and a harp. The fame of legislators and founders of religions, so long as their institutions last, alone seems to exceed that of poets in the restricted sense; but it can scarcely be a question, whether, if we deduct the celebrity which their flattery of the gross opinions of the vulgar usually conciliates, together with that which belonged to them in their higher character of poets, any excess will remain. This excerpt suggests that poetry is to other art forms.

Answers

Answer:

This excerpt suggests that poetry is superior to other art forms.

Explanation:

The text states that artists in general "has never equaled that of poets in the restricted sense of the term." In this sentence we can already see that the author of the text places poetry as an art superior to all others, an art form that can never be compared with other forms, because it reaches levels like neither music, nor painting, nor sculpture will achieve. The author also states that if we analyze in depth, not even the work of legislators and religious educators is greater and better than poetry and its effects.

Answer: superior

Explanation: the way he says that other art forms have never equaled that of poets

Answers

Answer:

Knowing the answer is one thing...but being able to justify your thinking by citing text is an entirely different type of skill. Taking the text and combing through it, like an old man at the beach with a metal detector, determined to find some treasures, not only takes strong reading comprehension skills but also takes some perseverance, to find what we're looking for.

Here are the six steps I use in my classroom, to teach this important reading skill:

1. Teach the Specific Steps to Cite Text Evidence

No secrets here...I'm a firm believer in teaching kids explicitly how to do the skills we want them to have, whether it's reading or math or any other subject. Often times, I like to make my thinking public, so that my modeling will give the kids an idea of what they can do to reach a particular learning goal. Mentor texts are a great tool to use here and can be read in one sitting, using lots of examples.

About the steps...To cite text evidence, we talk about how we need to read the whole text first (duh, but some kids might just try to skip this part and just try to answer the questions). Then, we read the question and think about how we might answer it.  

       Once we figure out our answer, we go back to the text and search for specific parts of the text, that will help us justify our answer. We make sure to take some time to discuss what it means to justify something and the kids enjoy this part a lot. For example, justify why you should have recess... Justify why you should be able to have a cell phone... Justify why you should be able to have a sleepover... Like little lawyers in the making!

Well, do you believe that a good education can help people? How so? A basic essay should have a minimum of three strong points with supporting details and examples. So, you should come up with three points that suggest a good education does in fact help people. If you’re having trouble thinking of points, a quick google search should give you some “ideas”. I say “ideas” because it’s important that you put these ideas into your own words. Ultimately, really think about what it means for people to get a good education. What would your life look like if you couldn’t get an education? What if you could afford the very best education there was to offer?

Which of the following statements about motivation is best supported by the selection from the Point essay below (paragraph 10)?

The philosophy of Lehman Alternative Community School in Ithaca, New York, is to encourage “students to use freedom responsibly, and to make educational choices appropriate to their individual levels of development.” LACS long ago got rid of gold stars, stickers, and even most grades in favor of intrinsic motivation. At an All School Meeting every week, students make decisions on issues facing the school. They make choices about their courses of study and reflect on their learning and achievement. They complete community projects and take trips outside the classroom.
Answer choices for the above question

A. Choice and intellectual freedom inspire a sense of investment in learning.

B. Students are only motivated if they get to do whatever they want.

C. Community projects help students see how lucky they are which fosters their motivation to do well in school.

D. Students will be motivated to learn if they don’t have to worry about grades.

Answers

The statement about motivation that is best supported by the selection is the following:

A. Choice and intellectual freedom inspire a sense of investment in learning.

According to the passage, at the LACS, students are motivated in a different way.Instead of worrying about grades, they are allowed to make their own choices.Since they are free to choose and to make decisions about their courses, they have the chance to reflect on their learning.By realizing learning is their own responsibility, they develop a sense of investment in it.Therefore, the best option is letter A. It is the only statement that mentions the choices and the freedom students experience at the LACS.

hope this helps

They were feeling protected, as they believed they would escape death.

"The Masque of the Red Death," is a short story written by Edgar Alan Poe. In this story we are introduced to the following elements:

A terrible and very contagious disease was plaguing a kingdom.This disease was known as the Red Death and was causing panic throughout the population.Prince Prospero also feared that he would be infected with the disease and wanted to protect himself and the people.For this reason, he has locked a thousand guests together with him in an abbey.He believed that this way everyone would be protected from the Red Death.The guests were also feeling that they were protected and that the disease would not overtake them.The guests and the prince were mistaken and no one can escape the disease.

With that, we can conclude that Poe made a great allusion to death in this short story, where he shows that no matter what we do, we will not be able to escape death.
