The memory throws up high and dry A crowd of twisted things; A twisted branch upon the beach Eaten smooth, and polished As if the world gave up The secret of its skeleton, Stiff and white. A broken spring in a factory yard, Rust that clings to the form that the strength has left Hard and curled and ready to snap. —“Rhapsody on a Windy Night,” T. S. Eliot What can you infer about the speaker based on the language choice? Check the three best choices. He actively avoids memories of the past. He sees the world through images of death.

Explanation:

-He sees the world through images of death.

He portrays this through the simile of lifeless objects; "...A twisted branch...Eaten smooth...its skeleton, Stiff and white..." The branch, once part of a living thing, is now dead and rubbed clean of all traces of foliage.

-He notices destruction around him.

"A broken spring in a factory yard..." In this poem, much of his imagery is focused on things, once alive and active, that now lie broken and useless.

"...strength has left

Hard and curled and ready to snap."

to kill a mockingbird basically is about a lawyer who goes against everything in a racist society like at the time of this novel, to defend a black man accused of sexual abuse. in the bible there are cases like that of joseph, who was accused by the woman of potifar, for a crime similar to that of tim robbinson, of that novel (genesis 39: 1-20). at this point we see that god also provides the escape to joseph, who was accused unjustly, but in his time, and through his attitude, his faith was not shaken, and god provided the solution. the perspective of god also written in the bible and not pay evil with evil. (ephesians 4: 32, 1 thessalonians 5: 15, 1 peter 3: 9). atticus, the lawyer, demonstrated during this lee novel, empathy, love of neighbor, understood the situation of this accused man. he went against everything in that society, and stood in favor of that man, for the injustice committed. this shows the empathy, the love taught by christ, in some passages that speak of love and justice in the sermon of the beatitudes (especially verses 6 and 7 of matthew 5).
