Read the excerpt from Rudolfo Anaya’s essay “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry.”
Tortillas and poetry. They go hand in hand. Books nourish the spirit, bread nourishes our bodies. Our distinct cultures nourish each one of us, and as we know more and more about the art and literature of the different cultures, we become freer and freer. . . .
I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like to sample different ethnic foods, the breads of many many groups; just as many of us enjoy sampling books from different areas of the world.

What do the details in this excerpt help readers to infer about the barbarians? They are just as mean and monstrous as the fishermen expect them to be. They are suspicious creatures who seem to be from a place other than Earth. They have a plan to humiliate the fishermen and are waiting for the right time. They are just as curious about the fishermen as the fishermen are about them.
This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:
Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai and then answer the question. The strangers leaped out of their boats and pulled them up on the small beach. By signs, they made it clear the castaways should climb aboard. The fishermen exchanged frightened glances and whispered to one another, "What about Denzo and Jusuke?" Gesturing, Manjiro communicated to the strangers about the two men in the cave. Denzo and Jusuke were retrieved, both of them so weak they had to be carried to the boats. Everyone found a place and the sailors shoved off. The two boats rowed away from the island toward an unknown future. The sun flickered on the restless waves just as it always did. The wind blew just as steadily as it always had. Yet everything had changed. They had been rescued from the island, only to be taken captive by barbarians. Manjiro stared at the strangers when he thought they weren’t looking. Sometimes he caught them staring at him when they thought he wasn’t looking.
What do the details in this excerpt help readers to infer about the barbarians?
A)They are just as mean and monstrous as the fishermen expect them to be.
b) They are suspicious creatures who seem to be from a place other than Earth.
c) They have a plan to humiliate the fishermen and are waiting for the right time.
d) They are just as curious about the fishermen as the fishermen are about them.
Answer:
The correct answer is option d) They are just as curious about the fishermen as the fishermen are about them.
Explanation:
By reading this extract we can see how the fishermen were caught by the barbarians. We cannot say for sure that they were evil creatures who wanted to harm fishermen as there is no evidence of this in this text.
But what we can say is that both the fishermen and the barbarians were curious about each other. We can deduce this by the following line:
"Manjiro stared at the strangers when I thought they weren't looking. Sometimes I caught them staring at him when they thought I wasn't looking."
This exchange of glances shows us that they were both curious.
Answer:
they are just as curious as the the fisherman
Explanation:
because they are different from the fisherman and have never seen people like them before

Which two lines from the poem best develop the theme related to the value of relationships?
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings
all alone beweep my outcast state
Sonnet 29
by William Shakespeare
When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
I all alone beweep my outcast state
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
And look upon myself and curse my fate,
5 Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featured like him, like him with friends possessid,
Desiring this man's art and that man's scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
10 Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate;
For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.
Answer: "For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings " and "That then I scorn to change my state with kings."
Explanation: In this sonnet, the poet is a troubled and insecure man, he is at his worst times, alone, with no friends, and he doesn't enjoy what he used to in the past. But in the line "For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings " he states that when he thinks about his love, happiness finds his way through him. Proceeding with the line "That then I scorn to change my state with kings.", he implies that he would not exchange then, his position in life, not even with the kings. Showing then, the true value of relationships.
Answer:
Answer: "For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings " and "That then I scorn to change my state with kings."

When looking for recent research about cures for the common cold, you come across a website with the suffix .edu. Here is what you find on the website:
"Achoo! Everyone suffers from the miserable symptoms of the common cold. Lots of boxes of tissues later, you wish someone would fix you up as good as new. Well, folks. Guess what? Your wishes are about to come true. Our lab will win next year's Nobel Prize in Medicine for the discovery that all you really need is some hot tea and sympathy. Grandma was right, after all."
Why might you question the reliability of the author's claim that the lab will win a Nobel Prize in Medicine?
The article seems like it was written to entertain. The claim is not verified.
A reliable article would not begin with the word, "Achoo!"
An article that mentions home remedies is usually folklore.
An article would not try so hard to persuade its reader.
Answer:
The article seems like it was written to entertain.
Explanation:
By including words like "Achoo" or "Well, folks" it seems like it's trying to please the reader by making it interesting, and therefore not reliable as far as medicine goes.

What is human selection? (I need four sentences)
Answer:
Artificial selection, also called "selective breeding”, is where humans select for desirable traits in agricultural products or animals, rather than leaving the species to evolve and change gradually without human interference, like in natural selection
Answer:
Human selections are many traits vary among different members of a population of humans and animals, from body size to hair colour, and those differences are often linked to differences in genes. Human selections occurs when some of those traits help some individuals survive and reproduce more than others. That causes their genes to become more common in the population over time, and it's the way species evolve to adapt to changes in their environment.

what is one way mirror how does the author portray each country canada and the USA in relation to the one way mirror
Answer:
The one way mirror is a mirror for one and a window for the other side.
Explanation:
In Through the looking glass by the Washington Post, the author uses the one way mirror to describe the peculiar relation between the US and Canada.
For most Americans, i.e. United States citizens, Canada is an empty screen, for we either don´t know much of it or we are not interested. Or a mixture of both. Therefore the Americans are on the mirror side. We look at ourselves and can only imagine what is behind the mirror.
For the Canadians the mirror is a window that clearly shows how much the other side has influenced (economically, culturally) them. Of course the worldpower factor is decisive in the one way mirror comparison: The US, as the worldpower, cannot be bothered by taking neighbouring countries all too serious; Canada, on the other side, is submitted to play the small little brother that follows suit with everything big brother does.

HELLPP ILL GIVE YOU BRAINLIEST: Read the following passage from Muir's "Calypso Borealis" and answer the question. Oftentimes I had to sleep without blankets, and sometimes without supper, but usually I had no great difficulty in finding a loaf of bread here and there at the houses of the farmer settlers in the widely scattered clearings. With one of these large backwoods loaves I was able to wander many a long wild fertile mile in the forests and bogs, free as the winds, gathering plants … Identify and explain the tone of this passage. What specific words contribute to the tone? Then, explain how the tone of the passage would change if the words "travel" and "lonely as the solitary cloud, collecting and numbering plants" replaced the bolded words. Be sure to identify the new tone and explain how the changed words create that tone. Your response should be a paragraph of 3–5 sentences
Answer:
The words from this paragraph from The Calypso Borealis that best show Muir's naturalist philosophy are the last ones:
"Welcomed as friends"
In the whole passage, the author shows us how deeply connected the character was with nature. It is very clear when Muir says: "With one of these large backwoods loaves I was able to wander many a long wild fertile mile in the forests and bogs, free as the winds, gathering plants, and glorying in God's abounding inexhaustible spiritual beauty bread."
Winds, plants, storms the woods, everything was perceived by Muir as loving friends cohabiting the beautiful world.

In a brief response, argue which element of a tragedy is strongest in of Romeo and Juliet. Also, argue which element is the hardest to support in Romeo and Juliet. You may use text evidence from all five acts to support your answers.
Answer:
The strongest element that represents the tragedy in the book is the end with the death of the two lovers
"JULIET: Yea, noise? Then I'll be brief. Or happy dagger!
[Snatching ROMEO’s dagger]
This is thy sheath;
[Stabs herself]
there rust, and let me die.
[Falls on ROMEO’s body, and dies] "(ACT V)
In a rational way, it is difficult to analyze the romantic love between the two, since it is very fleeting and idealized, how is it that they marry within a few days of meeting
"JULIET: Here’s such a coil! Come, what does Romeo say?
NURSE: Have you got leave to go to shrift to-day?
JULIET: I have.
NURSE: Then hie you hence to Friar Laurence’s cell;
There stays a husband to make you a wife "(ACT II)
