What is the topic sentence. ¹Wuthering Heights is in the midst of the desolate English moors. ²Outside the gates of this solitary dwelling the landscape expands into dreary shades of brown and gray, with only the craggy cliffs on the distant horizon to break the monotony. ³Wildlife and foliage are scarce. ⁴The few trees that do live must eke out their existence: the north wind blows constantly. ⁵The house itself, built to withstand the tumults of wind and rain, is cold and forbidding. ⁶The stone walls and earthen floors offer no relief from the bone-chilling dampness of northern England. ⁷In sharp contrast to Wuthering Heights is Thrushcross Grange. ⁸Situated in a sheltered valley, Thrushcross Grange is calm and peaceful, and is surrounded by lush flower gardens. ⁹The refined elegance of Thrushcross Grange differs as much from Wuthering Heights as the rose differs from the thorn. ¹⁰The contrast between these two settings is symbolic of the ultimate conflicts in Emily Bronte's novel Wuthering Heights.​

"you see he doesn't listen to me and doesn't take his medicine at the proper time. and above all he lies in a position that is no doubt bad for him—with his legs up." she described how he made gerasim hold his legs up. the doctor smiled with a contemptuous affability that said: "what's to be done? these sick people do have foolish fancies of that kind, but we must forgive them. . " they all rose, said good-night, and went away. when they had gone it seemed to ivan ilyich that he felt better; the falsity had gone with them. but the pain remained—that same pain and that same fear that made everything monotonously alike, nothing harder and nothing easier. everything was worse. again minute followed minute and hour followed hour. everything remained the same and there was no cessation. and the inevitable end of it all became more and more terrible. based on the excerpt, how is praskovya fedorovna a character foil to ivan ilyich? a. she is kind and takes care of ivan, which is why he feels guilty about how he treated her for most of their married life. b. she is vindictive toward ivan while pretending to be worried about him, thus reminding him of how his family has never forgiven him. c. she plays the part of the worried wife without any real feeling, symbolizing the false propriety ivan upheld but now hates. d. she is young, healthy, and beautiful—everything ivan can never be again and wishes he could return to. reset next
