Which sentence has correct subject-verb agreement?
A. The news travels fast around here.
B. The news report that a man was in an accident.
C. The news move fast with gossip.
D.The news reach many through newspapers.
Answer:
A. The news travels fast around here.
Explanation:
The word 'news' is an uncountable noun that doubles as the subject in the above sentence. The news in this instance refers to a specific news channel that dispenses information in a particular locality.
It functions as a singular entity in this context. Since singular subjects go with plural verbs, it is thus correct for the singular entity, "The news," to match with the plural verb, "travels. Thus, the first option has a correct subject-verb agreement.

the speaker talks of the crick of the floor an the creek of the chairs. What sounds do these word make you think of? How are the sounds different?
Answer and Explanation:
Although you have not informed the text to which this question refers, we can see that when pronouncing these words, you think of homophone words. Homophone words are different words, written in different ways, with different meanings that are pronounced the same way, like "crick" and "creek," which although they are pronounced the same way, with the same sounds, "crick" means the sound of chalk when it is dragged across the floor, while "creek" means the sound of a chair moving across the floor.
What is your opinion of the idea that worldviews can change over time?
Answer:
I perfectly agree.
When a person is still young or lacking in life experience and exposure to the world, they may hold a different worldview than they will much later in life when they have seen and lived much more.
Additionally, a specific experience or encounter may completely alter their way of regarding the world and their environment. People, human nature and societies are characterised by change, growth and progress. Thus, it is natural that many factors may influence worldviews over time.
Additionally, changing times and eras may hold new events and circumstances that may cause a unique shift in the worldview of many members of a particular community.

500 words or less identify three poetic devices used by Walt Whitman "Song of the open road"
Answer:
Three three poetic devices used in Walt Whitman's "Song of the Open Road" are alliteration, personification, anaphora.
Explanation:
Poetic devices are the literary techniques and rhetorical devices used by writers to make their work more appealing or better. Such devices may include irony, metaphor, simile, alliteration, onomatopoeia, personification, etc.
Walt Whitman's poem "Song of the Open Road" is a narrative poem with 15 parts or sections mostly about life, the lessons we learn from it, the joys and the hurts. It covers every aspect of life, the journey through life, and the lessons one can get from them.
Whitman used a number of poetic devices in his poem, some of which are personification, anaphora, imagery, symbolism, alliteration, etc.
1. Personification:
Personification is the giving of human or living characteristics to non-human or abstract ideas. This is seen in the lines-
"You air that serves me with breath to speak!
You objects that call from diffusion my meanings and give them shape!
You light that wraps me and all things in delicate equable showers!
You paths worn in the irregular hollows by the roadsides!"
Whitman personifies inanimate objects like the air, stones, light, etc. making them seem like they are alive on their own and capable of doing things like a living human does.
2. Alliteration:
Alliteration is the use of the same consonant sounds in succession.
".... happiness, here is happiness"
"Stately, solemn, sad,..."
In these two lines, we find alliteration in the use of the “h” in “happiness, here, happiness” and the “s” in “stately, solemn, sad”.
3. Anaphora:
This is the use of the same word or expression at the beginning of the lines.
"Journeyers over consecutive seasons, over the years, the curious years each emerging from that which preceded it,
Journeyers as with companions, namely their own diverse phases,
Forth-steppers from the latent unrealized baby-days,
Journeyers gayly with their own youth, journeyers with their bearded and well-grain’d manhood,
Journeyers with their womanhood, ample, unsurpass’d, content,
Journeyers with their own sublime old age of manhood or womanhood,"
The lines in this part of the poem all start with the word "journeyers", making it an anaphoric term.
Thus, we can see that Whitman used multiple poetic devices to talk of life’s journeys and the different aspects of it.

In the article, Chicago is described as being “…at the forefront of the green-roof movement” with other cities moving quickly to catch up.
How do the following sentences conflict with this point of view?
“Those 500 green roofs represent a little less than one-tenth of 1 percent of Chicago’s…buildings. By comparison, experts in Germany said that in 2010, 15-20 percent of the flat roofs in that country were green.”
How do these sentences compare to the overall tone of the articles? How does it impact the mood?
Answer:
The tone of the article is contradicting
Explanation:
The tone of the article is contradicting as it clearly states that on one hand it is claimed that Chicago will be the forefront of the green roof movement while on the other hand it shows the existing scenario in Chicago as per which only one tenth of the 1% of the Chicago's building have green roof.

Read this 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. I travel to foreign countries, and I know more about myself as I learn more about my fellow human beings. Censorship imposes itself in my path of knowledge, and that activity can be justified by no one.
Which of these changes would make this excerpt more argumentative?
A.) using words that affect the audience’s sense of trust
B.) using less repetition of certain words and phrases
C.) including words that address logic and reason
D.) including words that are charged with emotion
Answer:
C.) including words that address logic and reason
Explanation:
This excerpt only deals with subjective notions, and presents the material from the speaker's personal perspective. There is too much of "I know", "I traveled". An argumentative passage requires arguments that really are arguments, that is they really must support the initial claim.
