Hurston's quote emphasizes the dangers of remaining silent about one's suffering, as well as the importance of self-expression and advocacy. It is often used in discussions on societal issues like inequality and discrimination.
The quote by Zora Neale Hurston, "If you are silent about your pain then they will kill you, and say that you have enjoyed it" speaks to the themes of oppression, silence, and the oppression of personal truth. It suggests that if a person does not openly speak about their suffering or struggle, others may take advantage of their silence, hurting them in the process and afterwards, justifying their actions by claiming the person enjoyed it.
The 'they' in the quote could refer to anyone - oppressors, society, or an individual causing harm. The 'pain' could represent any form of suffering. The quote emphasizes the importance of self-expression and advocacy, implying that silence in the face of injustice could be misinterpreted as consent or enjoyment.
This quote is often used to discuss societal issues such as discrimination, inequality, abuse such as racial and gender inequalities, where the individuals suffering often feel silenced by those in power.

The Death of Ivan Ilyich is a novella written by Leo Tolstoy. It was published in 1886 and it is considered a classic of Russian literature. The book tells the story of a high-court judge that experiences an existential crisis after he finds out he is ill. Moreover, the novel starts at the chronological end of the story; in other words, it starts with the death of the main character. In The Death of Ivan Ilyich, Tolstoy presents his philosophy of life and portrays death as an enemy of men.
b. It determines the syntax of a work of literature.
c. It distracts from the diction in a work of literature.
d. It generates stories that lack a traditional plot.
The correct answer is A. it affects how characters react to conflict.
Motivation in literary works is what makes certain characters do certain action, how they are going to behave, what they are going to do, and ultimately, how they deal with various situations. Based on your motivation, you are going to react to conflict one way or another.
Character motivation is vital in literature as it drives plot progression and conflict. It influences, but does not primarily determine, a work's language use. A strong plot is typically propelled by character motivations rather than lacking them.
In literature, character motivation is crucial to plot development, conflict presentation, and overall narrative coherence. First, motivation shapes how characters interact with and respond to conflict (option a). When characters have strong motivations, they are likely to respond to conflict in ways that are true to their established personalities, making them more believable to readers.
Second, character motivation does not necessarily determine the syntax or diction of a literary work (options b and c). While it might influence a character's dialogue or inner thoughts, it is not the primary determinant of the work's language style. Instead, that is typically the realm of the author's style and choices.
Finally, a story's plot is generally driven by character motivations, not lacking them (option d). A compelling plot often involves characters acting on their motivations, overcoming obstacles and reaching towards their goals, rather than lacking motivation and thus having no clear direction or drive.
