General Zaroff had an exceedingly good dinner in his great paneled dining hall that evening...Two slight annoyances kept him from perfect enjoyment. One was the thought that it would be difficult to replace Ivan; the other was that his quarry had escaped him; of course, the American hadn't played the game--so thought the general as he tasted his after-dinner liqueur. In his library he read, to soothe himself, from the works of Marcus Aurelius. At ten he went up to his bedroom. He was deliciously tired, he said to himself, as he locked himself in. There was a little moonlight, so, before turning on his light, he went to the window and looked down at the courtyard. He could see the great hounds, and he called, "Better luck another time," to them. What sentence makes him a villain?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

He could see the great hounds, and he called, "Better luck another time," to them.

Explanation:

In the given excerpt, the indirect characterization has been employed to describe General Zaroff's character. The sentence which shows him as the villain would be 'He could see...them.' His attitude towards the hounds asserting that 'better luck next time' shows the failure of his evil plan. This reveals to the readers that he possesses the negative intentions which may lead to fatal consequences.

Read the excerpt from The Secret Garden.

She put her hand accidentally upon the tapestry near her, and then sprang back, feeling quite startled. The tapestry was the covering of a door which fell open and showed her that there was another part of the corridor behind it, and Mrs. Medlock was coming up it with her bunch of keys in her hand and a very cross look on her face.

“What are you doing here?” she said, and she took Mary by the arm and pulled her away. “What did I tell you?”

“I turned round the wrong corner,” explained Mary. “I didn’t know which way to go and I heard someone crying.” She quite hated Mrs. Medlock at the moment, but she hated her more the next.

“You didn’t hear anything of the sort,” said the housekeeper. “You come along back to your own nursery or I’ll box your ears.”

And she took her by the arm and half pushed, half pulled her up one passage and down another until she pushed her in at the door of her own room.

“Now,” she said, “you stay where you’re told to stay or you’ll find yourself locked up. The master had better get you a governess, same as he said he would. You’re one that needs someone to look sharp after you. I’ve got enough to do.”

She went out of the room and slammed the door after her, and Mary went and sat on the hearth-rug, pale with rage. She did not cry, but ground her teeth.

“There was someone crying—there was—there was!” she said to herself.

She had heard it twice now, and sometime she would find out. She had found out a great deal this morning. She felt as if she had been on a long journey, and at any rate she had had something to amuse her all the time, and she had played with the ivory elephants and had seen the gray mouse and its babies in their nest in the velvet cushion.
Which evidence best supports the idea that Mrs. Medlock is hiding something from Mary?

"'You’re one that needs someone to look sharp after you. I’ve got enough to do.'"
"She did not cry, but ground her teeth."

Over the past two decades, social media have gained so much growth and fame worldwide to an extent that many researchers are now interested in learning more about these social platforms and their effects on the community. Despite the fact that almost everyone in the community is connected to at least one social media platform, the youth and teenagers are the leading and most fanatic of these social platforms to the point that they even social network while in class or even church. It is to this light that researchers have found that these social sites impact the lives of our youth in a society a great deal in terms of morals, behavior and even education-wise.  

The use of social media has both negative and positive impacts on our youths today. In this paper, I aim to bring to light the impacts of social media specifically to the youth of this generation. These impacts are both positive and negative.

The positive impacts of social media on the youth today include making them up date on the events happening around the globe and also enables them network and stay connected with their fellow youths and friends without physical meetings.  Additionally, youths can create pages and groups in the social media platforms based on their professions, faith among other dimensions of their lives and this leads to more connections being built and more opportunities being opened for their respective disciplines. This can even lead to more employment opportunities being created for the unemployed youths. From the many interviews carried daily, youths say that social media platforms make their lives enjoyable, efficient and easier and has also become their lifestyle.

Even though media sites seem to connect more people and make them stay up to date, it leads to isolation socially according to a report. It reduces the number of face-to-face interactions among the youths because they normally spend most of their time on these online social platforms. An evaluation from a number of studies done by various scientists show that social isolation can cause a number of effects such as physical, emotional, mental and psychological issues in these youths. This can in turn lead to depression, anxiety and many other problems. It also leads to misspelling of words and misuse of words and tenses through the use of short forms and abbreviations. This has a high negative impact more so on students because it affects their language capabilities directly and this lead to poor grades in languages.

How did F. Scott Fitzgerald's word choice and character development contribute to his short story, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", overall structure and meaning as well as its aesthetic impact?

Answers

Explanation:

The grammatical structure and the way in which the story of Francis Scott is developed, caused great expectation and suspense from the beginning because his words reflected that something out of the ordinary or strange had just happened; Likewise, the language and the descriptions that Scott makes of the way the characters react are creating in the minds of the readers a real image of the events, ensuring that the story always remains interesting as the development of the story progresses.

The ethical impact of the story shows what commonly happens in our society, when something goes out of the normal or "natural" cycle, moral questions always come. Although the ethical questioning in this case we could say that it is not moral but "biological or natural" because It breaks with the natural cycle of life, which we are already used to, that is why the feelings and attitudes of prejudice of the characters are normal.We can say that what happened to Benjamin Button is a reflection of today's society in day, where people born with some biological alteration or with some disability are discriminated against and treated with a certain prejudice.
