What are the examples of the rhetorical devices?

The correct answer would be: It clearly explains the book's topic.

Even though this paragraph may show an interest “hook” to attract readers attention, it is completely devoted to explain the books topic. The first sentence more than a hook is telling what readers will find in the book and the following sentences explain very clearly what the author will talk about and what readers will find through the book.

"It adds credibility to the author" or "It is written by an expert on the subject" are not the correct answers because, even though you can assume the experience on the topic of the author in the words and how the author describes dancing genres, there is no specific statement that proves a solid backup in his or her knowledge (supporting these two statements).

          SHOULD EVERYONE IN THE WORLD SPEAK ENGLISH?

My answer is "Yes".  Eventhough language is one of the most valuable aspects of any culture, the mastery of a second language opens new opportunities for an individual in different areas such as art, culture, technical, scientific, or for traveling and tourism purposes.

The idea is not that the entire world speaks one and unique language as English, because each people have their own origins and customs that are highlighted and transmitted precisely by native language.  

Language helps uniting societies, giving them unique and proper characteristics that determine the final identity of people.  Language also helps creating strong ties in society such as religion aspects, family backgrounds, principles and behavior rules for people who share it.

This is why, for example, we see that in countries with a high volume of immigrants they create like a big circle in which they feel united and protected themselves and it's because of the language they share.

On the other hand, the fact that everyone should speak English as a second language is important because this gives the individual a double opportunity for working and getting involved in the society where he/she performs but at the same time keep the roots of his/her environment or culture.

Answer:

The correct answer is that the dog learns how to sleep in the snow

Explanation:

Buck, a domesticated dog in 'The Call of the Wild', is sold as a sled dog for the Klondike Gold Rush. His sale underscores the struggle between nature and nurture, as well as the frequent conflict between man and nature. Buck's transformation and survival in these harsh conditions illustrate his innate animal traits surpassing his domestic upbringing.

In 'The Call of the Wild' by Jack London, Buck is a domesticated dog living in California when he is abruptly sold to be a sled dog in the hard environment of the Klondike. His sale is motivated by the context of the times, during which gold had been discovered in the Klondike. People were rushing to the Klondike in hopes of striking gold and a demand for sled dogs became significant due to the harsh travel conditions.

The introduction of Buck's story clarifies the struggle between a creature's innate nature and the nurturing aspect of society. Forced into an alien and severe environment, Buck has to survive in harsh conditions and deal with brutal behavior. However, his innate animal nature helps him survive and thrive.

Throughout the story, Jack London vividly portrays the irony of Buck's plight, who had no idea of the humble and pleasant life he would have to leave behind, mostly because of the gold discovery in the far Northland. His sale and challenging experiences create a great narrative about the struggle between man and nature.

The Wizard of Oz features themes such as self-reliance and the contrast between the land of Oz and civilized countries. Dorothy's journey is marked by silver shoes in the novel, symbolizing the free silver movement, while the film depicts them as ruby slippers. Glinda's appearance is typically that of a kind and majestic witch.

The Wizard of Oz Questions

The good witch's perspective on civilized countries compared to the land of Oz isn't directly stated in the texts provided. We can infer from the narrative that Oz is a land full of wonder and challenges that are perhaps different from what we'd consider civilized.

The shoes that Dorothy puts on for her journey are famously known as ruby slippers in the film. However, in L. Frank Baum's original novel, they were silver shoes, symbolizing the Populist goal of bimetallism (free silver).

During their journey to see Glinda, Dorothy and her friends face various obstacles, though the details of an event involving the shoes on this specific journey are not provided here.

Glinda's appearance is not extensively detailed in the provided excerpts. We can assume from general descriptions of good witches that they are often portrayed as benevolent and ethereally beautiful characters.

There are idioms in there, some of them are:

Scrooge had often heard it said that Marley had no bowels, but he had never believed it until now.

The body of Marley's ghost is completely transparent, so Scrooge can see right through him. As a ghost, Marley lacks internal organs, just as when he was alive he lacked "the bowels of mercy," meaning compassion.

The imagery in there would be:

It was cold, bleak, biting weather: foggy withal: and he could hear the people in the court outside, go wheezing up and down, beating their hands upon their breasts, and stamping their feet upon the pavement stones to warm them. The city clocks had only just gone three, but it was quite dark already—it had not been light all day—and candles were flaring in the windows of the neighbouring offices, like ruddy smears upon the palpable brown air. The fog came pouring in at every chink and keyhole, and was so dense without, that although the court was of the narrowest, the houses opposite were mere phantoms.

In Stave 3 of 'A Christmas Carol,' Charles Dickens uses rich imagery to vividly depict the scenes witnessed by Ebenezer Scrooge, allowing readers to immerse themselves in the festive Christmas atmosphere. While explicit idioms might not be prominent, Dickens uses figurative language that serves a similar purpose.

Idioms and imagery are abundant in A Christmas Carol, particularly in Stave 3, where Charles Dickens utilizes these literary devices to enhance his storytelling. For instance, Dickens often uses imagery to paint a vivid picture of Scrooge's experiences, such as the description of the Ghost of Christmas Present and the various scenes Scrooge witnesses while in the presence of the spirit. While explicit idioms in this section might not be as prominent as the rich, detailed imagery, Dickens often employs figurative language that can be considered idiomatic, such as expressions unique to the Victorian era or those with a metaphorical meaning understood by readers of the time.

As for imagery, Dickens describes the plentiful and joyous nature of the Christmas feast, evoking the senses through detailed depictions of the sights, sounds, and smells. This use of sensory details helps the reader to fully immerse in the festive atmosphere that surrounds the Ghost of Christmas Present. The crux of Dickens' literary technique is making the reader feel part of the environment, creating a sense of place and emotion tied to the ongoing narrative of Scrooge's transformation.

Eliezer’s struggle with his faith is a dominant conflict in Night. At the beginning of the work, his faith in God is absolute. When asked why he prays to God, he answers, “Why did I pray? . . . Why did I live? Why did I breathe?” His belief in an omnipotent, benevolent God is unconditional, and he cannot imagine living without faith in a divine power. But this faith is shaken by his experience during the Holocaust.

Initially, Eliezer’s faith is a product of his studies in Jewish mysticism, which teach him that God is everywhere in the world, that nothing exists without God, that in fact everything in the physical world is an “emanation,” or reflection, of the divine world. In other words, Eliezer has grown up believing that everything on Earth reflects God’s holiness and power. His faith is grounded in the idea that God is everywhere, all the time, that his divinity touches every aspect of his daily life. Since God is good, his studies teach him, and God is everywhere in the world, the world must therefore be good.

Eliezer’s faith in the goodness of the world is irreparably shaken, however, by the cruelty and evil he witnesses during the Holocaust. He cannot imagine that the concentration camps’ unbelievable, disgusting cruelty could possibly reflect divinity. He wonders how a benevolent God could be part of such depravity and how an omnipotent God could permit such cruelty to take place. His faith is equally shaken by the cruelty and selfishness he sees among the prisoners. If all the prisoners were to unite to oppose the cruel oppression of the Nazis, Eliezer believes, then maybe he could understand the Nazi menace as an evil aberration. He would then be able to maintain the belief that humankind is essentially good. But he sees that the Holocaust exposes the selfishness, evil, and cruelty of which everybody—not only the Nazis, but also his fellow prisoners, his fellow Jews, even himself—is capable. If the world is so disgusting and cruel, he feels, then God either must be disgusting and cruel or must not exist at all.

Though this realization seems to annihilate his faith, Eliezer manages to retain some of this faith throughout his experiences. At certain moments—during his first night in the camp and during the hanging of the pipel—Eliezer does grapple with his faith, but his struggle should not be confused with a complete abandonment of his faith. This struggle doesn’t diminish his belief in God; rather, it is essential to the existence of that belief. When Moshe the Beadle is asked why he prays, he replies, “I pray to the God within me that He will give me the strength to ask Him the right questions.” In other words, questioning is fundamental to the idea of faith in God. The Holocaust forces Eliezer to ask horrible questions about the nature of good and evil and about whether God exists. But the very fact that he asks these questions reflects his commitment to God.

Discussing his own experience, Wiesel once wrote, “My anger rises up within faith and not outside it.” Eliezer’s struggle reflects such a sentiment. Only in the lowest moments of his faith does he turn his back on God. Indeed, even when Eliezer says that he has given up on God completely, Wiesel’s constant use of religious metaphors undercuts what Eliezer says he believes. Eliezer even refers to biblical passages when he denies his faith. When he fears that he might abandon his father, he prays to God, and, after his father’s death, he expresses regret that there was no religious memorial. At the end of the book, even though he has been forever changed by his Holocaust experience, Eliezer emerges with his faith intact.

Eliezer's faith is significantly impacted by his experiences during the Holocaust. His journey from devout follower to a skeptic who questions divine justice due to the atrocities he encounters is heart-breaking and thought-provoking. Despite everything, his faith never completely disappears, demonstrating its resilience.

In the text, Eliezer's faith is significantly impacted by his traumatic experiences. In the beginning, he is observed as a devout follower of his faith, studying Talmud and pondering the mysteries of mysticism. However, as he endures horrifying atrocities, his faith begins to falter and he starts to question God’s existence.

By the end of his journey, Eliezer does not renounce his faith entirely, but his belief system is profoundly altered. The text provides ample evidence of how his experiences in the Holocaust lead him to question divine justice and the existence of a loving, all-powerful God.

Personally, Eliezer's faith journey is both heart-breaking and thought-provoking. Though his faith is challenged and transformed by horrific experiences, it never fully disappears. This speaks to the complexity and resilience of faith, even in the face of unimaginable hardship.
