I’m working on a writing multi-part question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

Answer the following questions related about the story:

1. What do you think the end of the story means. When Laura sobs and hugs her brother, Laurie (Laurie is a boy, Laura is a girl) and says “Isn’t it marvelous” — what has effected her so much? What does she mean? How do you interpret the ending of this story?
2. Find two passages that describe two different settings in the story. Find one passage that describes the Sheridan’s own setting. Find another passage that describes the neighboring community. Think about how the way the settings are described reflect the opinions and prejudices of the Sheridan family.
   • Quote each passage.
   • Explain, in your own words, what the passage is saying.
   • Interpret how the language and imagery of the passage reveals the prejudices and blindness of the Sheridan’s point of view.

I’m working on a case studies writing question and need a sample draft to help me learn.

We looked at cultural movements and their impact on brands. Now, identify a cultural movement that affects your brand.

Why does your brand exist? What is going on in culture that makes your brand relevant? In 300 to 400 words, describe a cultural movement and how it affects your brand. You may include an image (optional) to help identify or explain the cultural movement. This can be an existing cultural movement that influences your brand or brand category, or it can be a cultural movement with which you think your brand should partner.

Perhaps your brand is already successfully integrating a cultural movement into their branding. Can you identify the cultural movement? Is there a new opportunity out there for your brand?

*My choice of brand is H&M, you can focus on sustainability culture.
