(C) Accounts of successive catastrophes establish the poem’s central meaning.
(D) Descriptions of hardships among humans mirror those in the animal world.
(E) Examples of dearth in nature accumulate to provide emphasis.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is option (E) Examples of dearth in nature accumulate to provide emphasis.

Explanation:

 This question is incomplete. Here are the lines missing:

Boll-weevil’s coming, and the winter’s cold,

Made cotton-stalks look rusty, seasons old,

And cotton, scarce as any southern snow,

Was vanishing; the branch, so pinched and slow,

Failed in its function as the autumn rake;

Drouth fighting soil had caused the soil to take

All water from the streams; dead birds were found

In wells a hundred feet below the ground—

Such was the season when the flower bloomed.

 

These lines correspond to the poem November Cotton Flower.

In it a description is made of how the southern lands are modified throughout the autumn, showing the things that are lost but always seeing the best for the future.

Emphasis is placed on the drought to show how disastrous it was, even killing the birds. Everything named in these lines are examples of dearth in nature accumulate to provide emphasis.

One night he sprang from sleep with a start, eager-eyed, nostrils quivering and scenting, his mane bristling in recurrent waves. From the forest came the call (or one note of it, for the call was many noted), distinct and definite as never before, - a long-drawn howl, like, yet unlike, any noise made by husky dog. And he knew it, in the old familiar way, as a sound heard before.

—The Call of the Wild,
Jack London

Identify the theme that is supported by the text in this passage.

Good leaders are strong and intelligent.
Both the wild and civilization have rules.
Only the strong survive in the wilderness.
We are all ruled by natural instincts.

Answers

Answer:

I would have to go with "We are all ruled by natural instincts. ".

Explanation:

The animal immediately takes note to the howl, which seems to be its instinct due to how it behaves and acts, which he even calls it a "familiar" sound. As for the other answers, the passage says nothing about leadership, nothing about survival, and I don't really see a connection of "Both the wild and civilization have rules. " to the passage.

1. How does the setting of the poem contribute to its central
theme?
O A The winding path implies that the speaker is lost, literally
and figuratively, emphasizing the theme of identity.
OB The speaker climbs a mountain path, which suggests an
upward struggle; thus, the setting underscores the central
theme of resilience in the face of adversity.
OC The misty forest setting (as well as Prejudice's strange
appearance) suggests some sort of supernatural element,
contributing to the theme of fear.
OD The poem takes place over the course of a day and ends as

Explanation:

America was created by the interplay of many different cultures in a single region. This is because as we know, America was supported by immigrants, who built the country based on their own cultural concepts and values. This made the cultural diversity that makes up American culture, go beyond ethnicity, religion and age, but it has to do with the way of life, personality, concepts and ethical and moral values that each American presents in relation to the country, citizens and the world. In addition, the diffusion and mixing of cultures in the country, made it impossible to define them according to religion and ethnicity, but it became a great respectable and admirable national concept.

What is Kindness?

Kindness is a sort of conduct characterized by deeds of charity, consideration, helping others, or showing concern for others without hoping to receive thanks or compensation. The study of kindness is relevant to philosophy, theology, and psychology. One of the major themes of the Bible was kindness.

At its most basic, kindness is being considerate of others rather than being uncaring, hurtful, or apathetic. Kindness appeals to everyone on this fundamental level. Kindness is valued by all living things, including newborns and children as well as animals.

Stop to help a lost-looking person. Speak kindly to a parent who is battling rowdy children in a restaurant or grocery store. Offer to wheel a stranger's shopping cart back to the entrance.

Answers

Answer:

A. I have a healthy diet. I eat lots of salad with lettuce and tomatoes.

B. Crisps aren't good for you because they are high in salt.

C. Eggs are a good source of protein.

D. Milk provides calcium for healthy teeth and bones.

E. Fish is better than meat because it is usually low in fat.

T. You need to have a balanced diet with food from all the major food groups.

S. It's OK to eat chocolate in moderation, You don't need to eat it every day.

Explanation:

This question mixes knowledge concerning health and concerning linguistics/grammar. Let's take a look at each of the sentences.

A. We need an adjective for the noun "diet". Since "health" is also a noun, the correct option is "healthy".

B. Having too much salt means a certain food is not good for your health. If crisps aren't good, then the option we should choose is "high".

C. Eggs, just like meat and chicken, are rich in protein. People who wish to build muscles usually consume lots of eggs every day.

D. If we are thinking of the health of our teeth and bones, we are thinking of calcium. That is what they need to be strong.

E. While red meat is high in fat and should be avoided for that reason, fish is a low-fat food, and should be preferred.

T. We have all heard of the importance of a balanced diet. You can eat a bit of everything that is in the food groups and be healthy.

S. The phrase we are looking for is "in moderation". "On" does not fit the expression at all.

Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon.”

Surely, that was enough to do, and live. Surely it was enough to spend the night upon the cliff. The Forest People themselves do not come near. Yet, all through the night, I knew that I should have to cross the river and walk in the places of the gods, although the gods ate me up. My magic did not help me at all and yet there was a fire in my bowels, a fire in my mind. When the sun rose, I thought, "My journey has been clean. Now I will go home from my journey." But, even as I thought so, I knew I could not. If I went to the Place of the Gods, I would surely die, but, if I did not go, I could never be at peace with my spirit again. It is better to lose one's life than one's spirit, if one is a priest and the son of a priest.

Which quotation best explains why the narrator continues his journey to the Place of the Gods?

“When the sun rose, I thought, ‘My journey has been clean.’”
“The Forest People themselves do not come near.”
“I could never be at peace with my spirit again.”
“My magic did not help me at all and yet there was a fire.”

Answers

Answer:

C) "I could never be at peace with my spirit again."

Explanation:

Just took the quiz and got it right.

“I could never be at peace with my spirit again.” explains the narrator continues his journey to the Place of the Gods. Thus, option C is correct.

What is "By the Waters of Babylon”?

Even after learning that other people misinterpret technologies for magic out of superstition, Oohn keeps on believing in and be captivated by magic. John has a strong desire to learn new things, and the priests' instructions just fuel this desire. John's ambition moves the plot along.

This phrase suggests that the speaker has experienced a traumatic event or situation that has caused them to lose their sense of inner peace and contentment. It implies that the speaker has been deeply affected by the experience and that they may never be able to fully recover from it. Therefore, option C is the correct option.

What can the reader infer about Jordan Baker based on her comments to Nick in Chapter 1?

Answers

This question is about "The great Gatsby"

Answer:

Based on Nick's comments, the reader can infer that Jordan Baker is bold, haughty, beautiful and elegant, but exhibits a certain fragility, almost submerged in all his posture.

Explanation:

When Nick first observes Jordam in chapter 1 of the book he comments that “she was extended full length at her end of the divan, completely motionless, and with her chin raised a little, as if she were balancing something on it which was quite likely to fall. ”

This creates an image of Jordan in the reader's mind as a beautiful, elegant, attractive and haughty woman, but her behavior shows that she is a rebel and does not follow the social norms established for women. In addition, the comment about her not being able to keep an imaginary object on her chin emits that she has a certain fragility, but that fragility is hidden in the monumental posture she presents.

The reader infer about Jordan Baker based on her comments to Nick in Chapter 1 is :

-He is dishonest person.

-She cheated in her first golf tournament.

"The Great Gatsby"

The reader infer about Jordan Baker based on her comments to Nick in Chapter 1 is that he is dishonest individual and she cheated in her to begin with golf tournament.

Nick feels pulled in to her in spite of her untruthfulness, indeed in spite of the fact that he himself claims to be one of the few genuine individuals he has ever known.
