Her life is a revolving dream
Of languid and sequestered ease;
Her girdles and her fillets gleam
Like changing fires on sunset seas;
Her raiment is like morning mist,
Shot opal, gold and amethyst.

From thieving light of eyes impure,
From coveting sun or wind's caress,
Her days are guarded and secure
Behind her carven lattices,
Like jewels in a turbaned crest,
Like secrets in a lover's breast.

But though no hand unsanctioned dares
Unveil the mysteries of her grace,
Time lifts the curtain unawares,
And Sorrow looks into her face . . .
Who shall prevent the subtle years,
Or shield a woman's eyes from tears?

How does the speaker’s description of flowers develop the meaning of the poem? Consider the comparison of flowers and weeds as discussed in the poem.

Answers

Answer:The speaker describes the flowers as beautiful but also describes them as caged and plucked by people. He knows that they're the preferred option, but he'd rather be free as a weed than be wanted as a flower.

Explanation:

The flower and the weed symbolize two different lives and ways of being treated the speaker could choose, but he'd rather be free and alone than have a life a certain way.

Answer:

The speaker views the existence of flowers as more limited than the life of a weed.

5 paragraph essay on “Social Distance Learning Experience” 20 sentences or longer. I will mark brainiest if it’s 20 or longer. I really need help this is due in 2 weeks! :/

Answers

Answer:

Social distancie learning experience:

As we all know our lifes have all drastically changed with the ongoing pandemic. Due to that fact we are required to do social distancing and not attend school. We are all restricted to online learning and as we all know with that comes great challange. Although we cannot see out friends at school we can still have a positive learning experience. We are all in this together and we have to make the best of it! As you all know doing school work online can be a little inconvinient due to the fact that we are all confined to our homes. We should put more emphasis on improving our communications and learning experiences. Most teachers give away tons of homework and expect students to return them without issue. Giving more homework to students has not been solving the problem of learning. Many teachers give unnesesary homework just so that the students blance the school hours. We also need to reduce the screentime of students. Teachers always suggest that to much screen time can be irritating to the eye. There should be no more than 4 consecutive hours otherwise students may not have enough rest. Many schools have done a great deal of work to improve the online learning experience. Students should be asked to review the online learning experience. They give necesarry feedback to improve certain difficulties like lack of teacher support or exessive homework. The road ahead will be a hard one and online learning will definitly have an impact on our learning experience. We just have to make the best we can and accept the ongoing situation. We should all strive to improve our online learing experience. Together we will be able to adjust to this new learning experience. My final remarks would be that screen time and stress should be redused. That the teachers and faculty strive to improve the learning experience of our school. I look forward to a good year of Social distance learning.

O

O

Answers

Answer:

B). "and of every man that has any claim or affinity to the name of Christian"

Explanation:

In the given excerpt from "Thoughts and Sentiments", the above text detail most appropriately backs Cugoano's belief that 'All Good Christians who are enlightened must participate in the abolition of slavery' as it reflects that it is the moral and obligatory duty of 'every man that has any claim or affinity to the name of Christian.' This text detail justifies that the author's claim. He asserts that this traffic i.e. human slavery cannot be admitted anywhere or to any degree and enlightened Christians must come forward to put an end to this dehumanizing treatment of Africans. He claims that this inhuman practice that is against sensibility, as well as humanity, must be stopped, and thus, people must resign to this barbaric act. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Answer: Option B

(B) “and of every man that has any claim or affinity to the name of Christian”

Explanation:

What text detail from this excerpt directly supports Cugoano’s belief that all good Christians have to participate in the abolishment of slavery?

Reread the introduction and conclusion to the story. Why do you think Walker chose to begin and end the story in the fashion she did? What do these sections reveal about the narrator, Mama?

ANSWER FOR PLATO:
The story opens with a description of the yard, which is like “an extended living room” where “anyone can come and sit and look up into the elm tree and wait for the breezes that never come inside the house.” This description shows that Mama and her daughter Maggie share a comfortable relationship with their home and their surroundings. Maggie’s reaction to her sister who “has held life always in the palm of one hand” and is not used to hearing the word no also helps readers picture Dee.

As the story ends, a dejected and frustrated Dee chides her mother and sister for not “understanding” their heritage. She also sneers at Maggie, telling her to “make something of” herself. She doesn’t seem to realize Mama and Maggie are satisfied living in their home amid their ancestors’ heirlooms and memories and so already possess the identity that she lacks. As Mama says:

After we watched the car dust settle I asked Maggie to bring me a dip of snuff. And then the two of us sat there just enjoying, until it was time to go in the house and go to bed.

In this way, Alice Walker shows the reader that Mama understands her family tradition and heritage better than Dee does.

Answers

Hello. You forgot to mention that this question is about "Everyday Use".

Answer:

Alice Walker decided to start and end the story the way she did it, to show that issues of ancestry are taken up by different people in different ways. Furthermore, it shows that, although Mama, there is no Dee in this respect, Mama's knowledge of her ancestry, race and tradition is greater and more complete than Dee's.

Explanation:

At the beginning of "Everyday Use", we are introduced to a narrative that shows a certain harmony between Mama and Maggie, in relation to their current lives. They are comfortable with their lives, with their locations and with their assets. The narrative shows that not everyone feels the same way, since it presents Dee in a more rebellious and impetuous way.

At the end of the story, the narrative no longer supports this atmosphere of harmony, as it shows Dee saddened by her situation and disgusted that her mother and sister, for not acting like her with regard to the memory of their ancestors and the identity of race they have. However, all the characters are aware of the ancestry and the weight it has in their lives, however, each one deals with it differently.
