1. They exemplify the everyday homeless, the needy those who we see on a day to day basis.

2. I actually think the thesis was not found in the main pargagraphs but formed in latter paragraphs, such as the last "could it be that the homeless, like tgise anncients, are reminding us of our common humanity"? (Ascher/ on Compassion 189). This is the main theory of the essay and the purpose of the essay is  the reasons for compassion and she kind of questions her own theory of why people are compassionate towards others. It is really to help and care, our to satisfy there own selfish ways.

Language

1.Empathy is being able to place yourself in someone elses shoes and relate to there circumstances, while compassion is a feeling within that does tend to lead from empathy in itself.

Discussion

1. Her legal training helpe her by making her writings short, because she wa trained to tell the facts and theories. To me this helps the reader actually believe the story, because there are facts to back on those theories, making the story more believable.

The figurative words and characters in this speech support its purpose to honor an admirable character, in this case dogs. The speech is a tribute speech therefore the figurative language was chosen to show praise. Here are three examples: "the stone of malice" is a metaphor the author uses to compare men's mistreatment of one another to a dog's loyalty, "When riches take wings, and reputation falls to pieces" is a sample of personification because he gives life to money and the concept of pride [furthermore, this phrase shows the dog is a comforter], and "And when the last scene of all comes, and death takes his master" is a hyperbole that exaggerates the commitment of a dog.

The poster named "CALIFORNIA the CORNUCOPIA of the WORLD ROOM for MILLIONS of IMMIGRANTS 43.795.000. ACRES of GOVERNMENT LANDS UNTAKEN RAILROAD & PRIVATE LAND FOR MILLIONS OF FARMERS!"

A poster’s job is to promote an idea, event, product or person. So here the poster of California promotes itself as a place full of resources that offers people staying there a healthy and peaceful lifestyle. It is a way of advertising and to spread the message. California is generally a good place to stay in. It is the best place for immigrants who seek to find a living for themselves. That’s what the poster would help to do, attract more immigrants to the place.

The correct answer is: simile

Through this text, we can see that the phrase "It is as if a great earthen pot has dropped from an unreachable rafter'' represents a comparison with the doubts that the narrator presents. This comparison is made through two elements that have nothing in common, but that the author uses to create a new meaning about one of them. This is done through simile.

Please, see below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Thoreau states, “… When an acorn and a chestnut fall side by side… bothobey their own laws…” (3). This can be interpreted as success being obtainable withoutthe assistance of another. The acorn and the chestnut are two individuals that are uniquein their own way yet had the same result. The same goes for people; for those reachingthe same goal as another, it is much better to do it under your qualities and your own way.The purpose of this passage was for Thoreau to inform his audience on his viewson the government and its negative affects on civilization. With its restrictions, peoplecannot fully live up to their potential because the bureaucracy will always limit them.Thoreau wants his audience to become successful in their own manor and uses theserhetorical devices to sync with his readers

Answer:

There is gradual shift of point of view in the story “An Occurrence
at Owl Creek Bridge”.

Step-by-step explanation:

●''Owl Creek Bridge'' isn't a first-person narration, meaning that it's not told from the perspective of the main character, meaning Farquhar. Instead, the text comes from a third-person narrator, or told by an external force or character.

●In some sense, Bierce presents readers with an unreliable third-person narrator. The narrator knows, the entire time, that Peyton is dreaming, but tricks readers into thinking that Peyton has escaped. By representing the scenes of Peyton's dream as reality, the narrator toys with the reader's emotions.

●In “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” a couple of shifts throughout the story change the entire story's point of view essentially bewildering readers. For instance, in paragraph five, a shift occurs when Peyton Farquhar closes his eyes right before he is to be hung.

●In paragraph 36 of "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge," Bierce shifts from past tense to present tense. Bierce writes that "now he sees another scene . . . he stands at the gate of his own home." The effect here is that the reader believes Farquhar has truly escaped and made it home.
