Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carolintroduces us to Ebenezer Scrooge, one of literature's most famous misers who despises... Show more
Ever wondered what it's like to be so obsessed with money that you hate Christmas? Scrooge is your perfect example - a man who's "solitary as an oyster," isolated behind a hard shell whilst missing all the beauty life has to offer.
When poor people ask for help, Scrooge coldly responds with "are there no prisons or workhouses?" He even tells them if they'd "rather die, then they had better do it and decrease the surplus population." This shocking attitude shows just how disconnected he's become from basic human compassion.
But Scrooge isn't alone in the world. His nephew Fred arrives at the office "all in a glow" with sparkling eyes, representing everything warm and generous that Scrooge rejects. Even knowing his uncle hates Christmas, Fred still cheerfully wishes him "merry Christmas uncle" and argues that Christmas is an "enjoyable and charitable time."
Key Insight Notice how Dickens uses the oyster metaphor - it perfectly captures how Scrooge has shut himself away from the world, missing out on life's treasures.
The most chilling moment comes when Jacob Marley, Scrooge's dead business partner, appears in chains made of "cash boxes and locks." Marley warns that Scrooge's chains will be "seven years longer" unless he changes his ways - a terrifying preview of what awaits those who live only for money.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
