Which lines in this excerpt of Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol reflect the theme of compassion versus material gain?
Answer:
"But you were always a good man of business, Jacob," faltered Scrooge, who now began to apply this to himself.
"Business!" cried the Ghost, wringing its hands again. "Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, and benevolence, were, all, my business. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!"
It held up its chain at arm's length, as if that were the cause of all its unavailing grief, and flung it heavily upon the ground again.
"At this time of the rolling year," the spectre said, "I suffer most. Why did I walk through crowds of fellow-beings with my eyes turned down, and never raise them to that blessed Star which led the Wise Men to a poor abode! Were there no poor homes to which its light would have conducted me!"
Scrooge was very much dismayed to hear the spectre going on at this rate, and began to quake exceedingly.
"Hear me!" cried the Ghost. "My time is nearly gone."
"I will," said Scrooge. "But don't be hard upon me! Don't be flowery, Jacob! Pray!"
"How it is that I appear before you in a shape that you can see, I may not tell. I have sat invisible beside you many and many a day."
It was not an agreeable idea. Scrooge shivered and wiped the perspiration from his brow.
"That is no light part of my penance," pursued the Ghost. "I am here tonight to warn you, that you have yet a chance and hope of escaping my fate. A chance and hope of my procuring, Ebenezer."
"You were always a good friend to me," said Scrooge. "Thank'ee!"

Explanation: In this poem, The Masque of Red Death, the characters are forcefully quarentining themselves to stay away from others and evade the viral sickness going around (the plague). I think that Poe was writing about his feelings of lonliness in that part, as the abbey could have been a metaphor for having to keep people out of your life for the greater good.
Hope that this helps out somehow! Have a great day!

Answer:
Britain
Explanation:
Thomas Paine, one of the founding fathers of the United States of America was against the control of America by Britain. According to him, nature made it such that Kingdoms should control Islands but in the relationship between America and Britain, the reverse was the case.
He rejected Britain's control of America, comparing them to the Islands that wished to control a whole continent like America. Paine believed that Britain belonged to Europe, while America should be left alone to govern its affairs.
brainstorm ways that WWII was life-changing for German and Jewish families based on the evidence that you found in this novel. Write the effects of WWII on the families in the eight boxes below. (There are no pictures included btw)
There are no photos or boxes but I can give an opinion on this subject.
In a way families were brought closer together after this event in history. After WWII lots of families were rescued and back together. But of curse this brought trauma to lots of people (not just families). I've heard stories in class about regret from German families, imagning if it were their families being hurt and ripped apart.
I'd like to make a connection to the movie, "boy in the stripped pyjamas", SPOILERS. At the end of the movie, the german family had a taste of what it felt like to be jews, at the time. i've always wondered how they felt afterwards knowing that this is what they were doing to Jewish families.
In conclusion, Jewish families were being seperated but those who survived were brought closer together. And German families either realized what they did and/or supported ki11ed millions, or they continued to belive in h1tlers ways.
