Read the excerpt from chapter 7 of Night. One day when we had come to a stop, a worker took a piece of bread out of his bag and

threw it into a wagon. There was a stampede. Dozens of starving men fought desperately over a few crumbs. The worker watched the spectacle with great interest. Years later, I witnessed a similar spectacle in Aden. Our ship's passengers amused themselves by throwing coins to the "natives,” who dove to retrieve them. An elegant Parisian lady took great pleasure in this game. When I noticed two children desperately fighting in the water, one trying to strangle the other, I implored the lady: "Please, don’t throw any more coins!” "Why not?” said she. "I like to give charity . . .” Based on the details in this excerpt, what is the author’s primary purpose? to show how people everywhere need help to show how his opinion of humankind has changed to show that cruel behavior is not limited to only one situation to show that people may do things without thinking of the consequences

How does Helen Dare use comparisons to characterize Susan B. Anthony, and what do these comparisons reveal about her point of vi
hammer [7621]

When engaging in comparisons, you should seek out similes or metaphors. For instance, "The sun is a hot bowl of lava" is a metaphor, comparing the sun to lava. Alternatively, you might see: "The sun is as hot as a bowl of lava," which is a simile.

Direct comparisons may also occur, such as: Susan’s artwork resembles that of da Vinci. Therefore, as you read, watch for instances like these. Then, contemplate how these comparisons illustrate a particular perspective. Are these comparisons framed positively or negatively?

Naddika [7460]

Answer:

The concept of Utopia has circulated for ages. Ancient civilizations like the Greeks, Romans, and stoic philosophers contemplated the notion of an ideal society. Nevertheless, as seen in numerous historical attempts—from the Soviet Union’s communist regime to modern-day North Korea and communist China—implementing such ideals often results in a stark disparity between the wealthiest and poorest members of society.
