In at least 250 words, choose two literary devices used in "Rip Van Winkle," and describe how they're both used to develop one of the themes in the short story.
Answer:
Rip Van Winkle’s timely twenty-year sleep resulted in his missing the American Revolution altogether. Rip stands as a relic of the past. He is an example of the simple, idle, and gentle villager. The village moves on to become bustling, crowded, and disputatious during his absence. There is a large contrast between the village Rip leaves and the village he returns to twenty years later. This contrast suggests how Irving views the clash between the traditional and the modern. The village and its villagers are portrayed as markedly altered after Rip’s twenty year departure. To Rip’s mind, some of those alterations are for the worse.

Splintered whole (this is an example of an oxymoron - 2 words that seem to be antonyms but are used together) How does this oxymoron further Quindlen's purpose? (4)
Answer:
Explanation:
An oxymoron is a figure of speech containing words that seem to contradict each other. It's often referred to as a contradiction in terms. As with other rhetorical devices, oxymorons are used for a variety of purposes. Sometimes they're used to create a little bit of drama for the reader; sometimes they're used to make a person stop and think, whether that's to laugh or to wonder.
A common oxymoron is the phrase "the same difference." This phrase qualifies as an oxymoron because the words "same" and "difference" have opposite meanings. Bringing them together into one phrase produces a verbally puzzling, yet engaging, effect.

recall juliets response when her mother suggests the idea of marrying Paris (act 1, scene 3, lines 98-100) what does this reveal about juliets character before she meets Romeo? how does this contrast with romeos character in the parallel plot involving Rosaline? by act v, how was juliet changedZ?
Answer:
Juliet would like to please her mother by considering marrying Paris, suggesting she is obedient and trustful of her parents' judgments. Romeo, by contrast, is wildly romantic in his despair over Rosaline which immediately dissipates when he lays eyes on Juliet. Juliet, transformed by the love she feels from their first meeting, becomes more like Romeo: passionate and willing to do anything to be with the person she loves.
Explanation:
In the text, Jesse Owens is described as an international hero. Why were his actions in theSummer Olympics heroic? Despite his heroic status, how was Owens treated and why? Howdo you think a hero should be treated?
Answer:
James Owens' actions in the Summer Olympics were heroic because he won four gold medals in track and field and set a record proving to Hitler that "Aryans" were not a superior race as Hitler claimed it to be.
Despite his victory, Owens was called racial slurs and mistreated in Berlin and his own country. Back in the US, he still had to suffer the consequences of racial segregation and not receiving job offers after his victory.
A hero should be treated in the complete opposite way to how Jesse Owens was treated. A hero should be recognized and honored every day for his or her actions nationally and internationally.
Explanation:
Jesse Owens was an African American athlete. He participated in the Summer Olympic Games that took place in Berlin under Adolf Hitler's power.
Even though Hitler and other people were against Jewish and athletes of color in the games, Owens participated and won four gold medals and set a record, which proved to all the racist people that white Europeans, also known as the Aryans race, were not superior. Despite his victories, he did not receive the recognition that he deserved in the US due to social segregation.
