what did mya refer to as a foreign country ? in the book i know why the caged bird sings
Answer:
Mya referred to St. Louis as a foreign country.
Explanation:
"I know whyy the Caged Bird Sings" is an autobiographical account of the life of Maya Angelou. This book narrates about the childhood of Maya.
Maya and her brother lived with their paternal grandmother after being left by their parents. In chapter 2, Maya describes how she, at the age of three, and her brother Bailey, four at that time, were left to travel alone by their father to their grandmother's house. Since then, they lived with their grandmother, whom they addressed as 'Momma.' But one day, their father arrives at Stamps, and take both the kids with him and drops them at St. Louis, where their mother lives.
It was her mother's place, St. Louis, that Mya referred to as 'foreign'. The author feels strange being with her mother, whom she does not know and the country St. Louis 'as foreign', a place with which she would never get used to.

uestion 2
Answer: Ancient domesticated cats' travel and relationship with humans resulted in their widespread presence around the world.
Explanation:
The article in question is called "DNA Tells Tale of How Cats Conquered the World" by Tina Hesman Saey and it focuses on telling how cats spread across the world.
The article concludes from DNA evidence that cats spread to Europe from the Middle East after first being domesticated there. It concludes this by comparing the DNA of cats in those areas now vs the DNA of cats from other parts of the world. The study suggests that this spread was probably as a result of merchants travelling with their cats with some of them leaving to find new homes as cats are a territorial species and so could not have spread across the world were it not for travelling with humans.

With summer vacation started or on its way, as parents or
guardians, it's important to ensure that reading remains
on your child's schedule even while school is out. Reading
over the summer is important not only because it
improves literacy and language skills, but also because it
prevents what has become known as the "summer slide"

rarely over the summer encounter a stagnation or decline
in their reading skills.

How do you know Lily Daw is a round character in "Lily Daw and the Three Ladies"?
Answer:
While Aimee does not appear to change very much throughout the text, she is the one who makes the discovery that Lily's marriage is real and rushes around trying to help Lily and her prospective lover.

At the end, it is Aimee again who realizes that Lily has left her hope chest on the train, and she feels sadness for her.
Lily also does not appear to undergo significant change, and she does not speak very much for herself. However, she gets the reader's real sympathy because of the way she is pushed around. When the other women come to tell Lily she is going to Ellisville, she is pathetically packing her tiny hope chest. When the women discover that the man is real and try to get Lily off the train again, Lily begins to cry and is confused at the change that the women have now pushed her into.
