Read the excerpt from a personal essay. What is the purpose of the allusion to the story of Cinderella?

As my principal, Mr. Howard, read the names of the scholarship recipients, I held my breath in anticipation. I wanted to hear my name called and the cheers from the audience. However, my name never passed through Mr. Howard's lips. When the last name was read, I felt numb. The hours that I spent writing the scholarship essay felt wasted. I finally had the sinking realization that I would never be Cinderella and that fairy godmothers do not exist. Without that scholarship, accomplishing my dreams would be incredibly difficult.



A.

With this in mind, answer the following prompt. Your response must be at least 150 words and refer very specifically to characteristics of chivalry and knighthood


If you were a knight 1,000 years ago...

Would you prefer to be born into knighthood, or earn knighthood with a wealthy sponsor? Why?
Which tenet of chivalry would be the easiest for you to follow? Why?
Which tenet of chivalry would be the hardest for you to follow? Why?

Answers

There's something romantic about being a knight — and no, we don't mean sweep-a-fair-lady-off-her-feet kind of romantic. Between the tall tales of heroic deeds and depictions of gleaming, glorious suits of armor, the life of a knight has been made into something grander than it actually was.

The desire to take up sword and shield and live the life of a knight immediately goes out the window once you learn a little more about what that life was actually like. While your the experience of knighthood varied greatly between kingdoms, no matter which banner you bore, they all shared one common quality: life flat-out sucked.

It wasn't entirely impossible for a peasant-turned-warrior to be recognized for greatness and rise in status, but that was exceedingly rare (for reasons we'll get into shortly). For the most part, knights were generally are born into the role. If your father was a knight or if you were of noble birth but far from the line of succession, knighthood was for you.

This meant that, for the most part, from the moment of your birth, you'd be expected to become a knight and fight for your lord. The process typically began at age seven. You'd be given off to a noble to learn as much as you could. The quality of this childhood hinged entirely on the whims of said noble. Then, at age 14, you'd become a squire.

Answers

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read Africa My Africa by David Diop

What does the author urge the black people to stand up for?

Answer: Their freedom, against the humiliation and the mistreatments they suffer.

Explanation:

Diop, a strong advocate of Negritude as a need to reclaim African history, refers to people 'saying no to the whip' as a way to express what he thinks has to be done: give liberty to black people. Furthermore, by the end of the poem, he describes that same liberty as bitter-tasting, meaning that it will only be achieved by a great effort.

What's a verb?
what is a verb ​

Answers

Answer: A verb is a word that in syntax conveys an action, an occurrence, or a state of being. In the usual description of English, the basic form, with or without the particle to, is the infinitive. In many languages, verbs are inflected to encode tense, aspect, mood, and voice.

Explanation: Hope this helped

Many verbs give the idea of action, of "doing" something. For example, words like run, fight, do and work all convey action. But some verbs do not give the idea of action; they give the idea of existence, of state, of "being". For example, verbs like be, exist, seem and belong all convey state.

Answer:

Tybalt is ready to fight and Lord Capulet is less impulsive.

Explanation:

Tybalt wants to fight Romeo for him embarrassing Romeo's appearance at the masquerade party. Tybalt wants revenge due to Romeo "crashing" the party. Hopefully, you will be able to read the portion where Lord Capulet states that Tybalt is "saucy", or as we would say, he has a temper. Tybalt just cannot get over the fact that Romeo was at the ball. Just so you know, Romeo kills Tybalt. Romeo kills in revenge and he is going to be banished!

Why does J.R.R. Tolkien use the subplot on the life of Belladonna Took in The Hobbit?
o to prepare readers for sequels to the original text
O to provide additional details about a main character's personality
O to directly address the readers of the text
to develop a secondary character and story line

Answers

Answer:

to provide additional details about a main character's personality

Explanation:

to prepare readers for sequels to the original text – this is not the right answer. The Hobbit does not have clear sequels, and if we consider the Lord of the Rings series as sequels, they don’t have anything to do with Belladonna.

to provide additional details about a main character's personality – this is the correct answer. Through explaining the character of his mother and her subplot, their relationship, and connections, Tolkien wanted to give readers more information about Bilbo himself, about his family and background, and with that, explain to us his character.

to directly address the readers of the text – this is not the right answer. Tolkien does not do this in this passage.

to develop a secondary character and storyline – this is not the correct answer. Tolkien does not use Belladonna further in the story much, so her development is not the right answer.

Answer:

B. To provide additional details about a main character's personality.

No explanation needed. Just trust me, because trusting me would get you the correct answer. :)

Some examples of challenges we may face are challenges with our home lives, challenges with friends, grades, sports, etc. You can deal with these obstacles in life by taking a deep breath and having some "me time". One time I was faced with a challenge was when I learned I was moving. I kept my head held high because I didn't want to be a burden, even though I was really hurting on the inside.

3. Wash all fruits and vegetables before eating.

4. Separate raw, cooked, and ready-to-eat foods. Keep raw meat, poultry, fish, or eggs away from other foods to prevent cross-contamination. If possible, use separate cutting boards for these foods. If not, be sure to wash cutting boards carefully with soap between uses.

6. Keep hot foods hot (above 140 degrees) and cold foods cold (below 40 degrees)to prevent bacteria growth.

7. Refrigerate foods within two hours of purchase or preparation (one hour if the temperature is higher than 90 degrees)

8. When in doubt, throw it out. If you are not sure that food has been prepared, served, or stored properly, throw it out. If food has been left out for more than two hours, throw it out.
