How and why is Piggy considered by the others to be an outsider?

Piggy is an outsider for many reasons. His health is one. Boys like Ralph are strong and healthy. They are confident in their ability to act. By contrast, Piggy is fat and has asthma. He wears glasses, and his mom has been very protective of him, making him hesitant to act. However, he's also an outsider because he is fundamentally an intellectual. He lives in his mind, while the other boys in their bodies or the community. That makes him seem weird to them.

What are the characteristics of Middle English language?What were the changes occurred? how?

If Middle English is what is employed in the text of the
St. James edition of the Bible, there were still conjugated endings on the verbs. It was
not until the advent of Modern English that conjugated endings were dropped for the most
part and helping verbs added in verb usage.  (He/she says still has
a conjugated ending of -s)

Nouns, however, were no longer
declined; that is, the endings of the nouns did not indicate their case/function in a
sentence as they did in Old English which imitates Latin in this respect.  These case
endings were lost because of the stress shift in Middle English.  The cases were as
follows:

• nominative   - indicating the subject
  of a sentence


• accusative    - indicating the direct
  object of a sentence


• genitive       - indicating
  possession


• dative          - indicating the indirect
  object


• instrumental - indicating an instrument used to
  achieve something  (e.g. lifede sweordre, meaning lived by the
  sword.  Since sword is the instrument it is the instrumental form of
  sweord)

Along with losing
conjugated endings, Middle English also dropped the Latin demand for gender agreement. 
Other interesting differences are in spelling:

• c
  before i or e became chi


• cw became
  qu


• sc became sh


• new
  symbols v and u were added


• k was used more
  (cyning became
  king)


• a historical h was added to words such
  as honor, heir, herb, habit


• the infinitive verb ending
  was dropped and "to" was placed before a verb to make an
  infinitive.


• adjectives lost agreement with nouns in
  gender and number


• loss of the final
  -n in possessive pronouns (e.g. min
  faeder to mi faeder) and the addition of an
  -n in words beginning with a vowel a napron, a
  nuncle which became an apron, an
  uncle)


• /z/ phoneme was borrowed from French as
  the voiced counterpart for /s/   e.g.
  these

Although the popularity of French was
decreasing after King John lost Normandy to the French in 1250 and after Chaucer's
Canterbury Tales was published as Middle English emerged, nearly
10,000 words were incorporated into the English language.

In Night, what is ironic about the prisoners' feelings about air raids? And explain their attitudes towards death.Chapter 4

The prisoners' attitudes about the air raid are very flippant- they don't really notice, nor do they care. The guards and took refuge in the bomb shelters and left the prisoners on the blocks, not so safely secured, but that was not the prisoner's primary concern. Death was so tangible to all the prisoners at this point that air raid warnings and aerial bomb attacks were welcome interruptions. The prisoners didn't mind dying if it meant that their enemies were going to be hit as well, not to mention that death would end the torturous suffering they had to endure. When it is said that the factory in which Elie's own father is working is being bombed at that moment he remarks,

"we no longer feared death, in any event this particular death. Every bomb that hit filled is with joy, gave us renewed confidence."

When the air raid bomb went off in Chapter 4 the prisoners' concern was not with safety but with two steaming cauldrons of soup that had been left out. Hunger was a more primary instinctual concern than surviving a possible aerial bomb attack, especially since it could mean that the end of the war and suffering of the Jews was close to coming to an end.

What was Maupassant's main purpose for writing "The Necklace"? What was he trying to show the reader?

The author was to show the difference between something real and false, and how our behavior can be affected by our misperception between the two, just as the protagonist's whole life is changed by mistaking false jewels for real. He also wanted to criticize vanity, especially the kind associated with wealth and materialism. To go beyond your means to look pretty, to be excessively concerned about how others perceive you—a perception based on expensive jewelry (in this story) or (in real life) designer jeans or Prada boots, diminishes your own sense of worth, which should be built on character, not what you wear or how you look.

How does Claudius manipulate Rosencrantz and Guildenstern in the play?

In addition to hiring Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to help
him with Hamlet's depression, Claudius perhaps has planted the seed that Hamlet's
melancholy has resulted from the fact that his ambition to inherit the throne has been
thwarted by Claudius and Gertrude's marriage.  Notice in Act 2 how often Rosencrantz and
Guildenstern use the word "ambition" in their questioning of Hamlet.  It seems here
that  Claudius has commissioned Rosencrantz and Guildenstern not only to find out what
is wrong with Hamlet, but also to determine if Hamlet had past ambitions for the throne,
and if he is still harboring those same ambitions. Claudius obviously views Hamlet as a
true threat, and he is using the two spies in an attempt to find out Hamlet's
motivation.

 Later, Claudius uses Rosencrantz and
Guildenstern to escort Hamlet to England where Claudius plans for him to be executed. 
Of course, this plan does not work, but we are not sure of Rosencrantz and
Guildenstern's knowledge of this plan.  Perhaps they are innocent of the orders they are
carrying.  Perhaps not.  Hamlet likens them to "sponges" or "knee-crooking"
knaves--sychophants that will do whatever they are told to promote their standing with
the king. 

What is love?

hi

I believe that love is not
words but a sense of.....

what is
love

Love .. Is that sense of invisibility, who is
traveling everywhere and roams the world

In
search of opportunity waiting to caress a sense .. And enchanting eyes
..

To sneak quietly .. And settles in the
absence of reason and in spite of you ..

Within
the cavities of the heart .... To have the spirit and conscience
..

To take control of each entity rights
..

Piece and love is the feeling that possesses
rights in the inside

And round the world where it pleases
grief

Touring everywhere on foam of the sea walk without
sinking in the depths of

Love .. Is so delicious
contagious epidemic, which affects all beings without exception
..

It attracts magnetic objects to each other
..

And without it will not last the life of any
planet ..

For love .. Meanings of the great and
many definitions vary from one lover to another .. Every lover has a vision and
definition of

Special meaning of love
..

What sensory details are used to emphasize each of the five senses, and how do these details add to the story?

I suppose that the feeling of being hot is touch.  So we
see this right off when George starts sweating as soon as the nursery turns on and
becomes Africa.

Bradbury then describes the smells of the
savannah in very graphic terms.  The lions and other animals smell like rust, the dust
smells like paprika.

When Bradbury describes the lions
coming towards George, we get sight and sound and even
taste.

All of these details are important to the story
because they make it seem so real.  The emphasize how the nursery is not just a dream or
a projection.  It is so real that it affects all of your senses.
