Read the excerpt from "how the grimm brothers saved the fairy tale." turning to the tales of the first edition, a reader might notice that many of the stories such as "the hand with the knife,” "how some children played at slaughtering,” and "the children of famine,” have nothing to do with fairies or happy endings. instead, these are stark narratives about brutal living conditions in the nineteenth century. for instance, "the children of famine” begins this way: once upon a time there was a woman with two daughters, and they had become so poor that they no longer had even a piece of bread to put in their mouths. their hunger became so great that their mother became unhinged and desperate. indeed, she said to her children, "i’ve got to kill you so that i can get something to eat.” how does the author support the main idea in this paragraph? with a claim that the narratives show brutal living conditions with three titles of stories from the brothers grimm with an example that shows why the stories are fit for children with an example that shows a specific brutal living condition

In this excerpt from "dover beach" by matthew arnold, which two lines or sets of lines suggest that the speaker has undergone a loss of faith? the sea of faith was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore lay like the folds of a bright girdle furled. but now i only hear its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar, retreating, to the breath of the night-wind, down the vast edges drear and naked shingles of the world. ah, love, let us be true to one another! for the world, which seems to lie before us like a land of dreams, so various, so beautiful, so new, hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light, nor certitude, nor peace, nor for pain; and we are here as on a darkling plain swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight, where ignorant armies clash by night.
