Answer:rt is one of my favorite subjects because I enjoy expressing what is on my mind with pictures and color. Georgia O'Keeffe was an artist but not a certain kind of artist. She was her own kind of artist. Joan Didion wrote this essay to make the readers understand to be their own person and to pursue their own ideas. Anyone can draw a flower but not everyone sees the flower the same. O'Keeffe once said, " Where I was born and where and how I lived is unimportant. It is what I have done and with where I have been that should be of interest." What she means by this is that what is interesting is what she has done with where she has been. What matters is her art.
Didion took her daughter to the Chicago Art Institute one day and that was the day her and her daughter saw that the glory in Georgia O'Keeffe's work reflected a glory in its maker. This basically means that the painting was the painter and every choice made in the artwork was made alone, by the thoughts of just one person. It showed character and "Style is character.", says Didion. O'Keeffee's ability to show her style through her paintings gave Didion the ability to sort of translate who she is as a person. O;Keefee's paintings and her judgment toward the words people use about her paintings is how she profiles the artist. She descries the artist "...Simply hard, a straight shooter, a women clean of received wisdom and open to what she sees. This is a women who could early on dismiss most of her contemporaries as "dreamy," and would later single out one she liked as "a very poor painter". Didon sees O'Keeffe as strong and free to speak her mind which was a very hard personality to have back in that time of men power.
Throughout O'Keeffe's life she has been told what to draw by "the men". The men tell her that her art is impossible but she proves them wrong. Didion repeats O’Keeffe’s words, “I made you take time to look at what I saw and when you took time to really notice my flower you hung all your associations with flowers on my flower and you write about my flower as if I think and see what you think and see — and I don’t”. O’Keeffe words shows the defiance and boldness she has despite the thoughts that others have on her. She doe not care what other people think and that is a hard lesson to give to readers. People care so much about what others think because it hurts to be judged but O'Keeffe's personality can spark a change in someone's life and that is why Didion is using her as an example to portray that lesson. Didion explains O'Keeffe's past starting out as an artist with being often criticized and rejected. People would paint over her art which is probably what gave her a “hard shell”.
What is being portrayed in this essay is that art is meant to express yourself. Do not paint certain tings because it is what people want. Paint your style because people can read your character just by looking at your paintings. That is what Didion did to O'Keeffe. She was able to figure out what type of person O'Keeffe was just by reading and look at the paintings. She lived in a time where men dominated over women and despite all of the difficulties, she still lived her life blissfully painting and expressing her own feelings and thoughts.

What is Paylor's motive for allowing Katniss to come face to face with Snow?
(in mockingjay)
Answer:
When Katniss was barred from entering the rose garden after the fall of the Capitol, Paylor ordered the guards to permit her entry and meet President Snow, in hopes of allowing the former to find out about the truth regarding who was responsible for the final bombing of the Capitol.
Fathers and Angels
Wes stared back at me after I'd asked my question, letting a moment pass and a smirk flicker across his
face before responding.
-1 really haven't thought too deeply about his impact on my life because, really, he didn't have one."
Wes leaned back in his seat and threw an even stare at me.
"Come on, man," I pressed on. "You don't think about how things would have been different if he'd been
there? If he cared enough to be there?"
"No, I don't. The lower half of his face was shrouded by the long beard that he'd grown, an outward sign
of the Islamic faith he'd adopted in prison. His eyes danced with bemusement. He was not moved by my
emotional questioning. "Listen," he went on. "Your father wasn't there because he couldn't be, my father
wasn't there because he chose not to be. We're going to mourn their absence in different ways."
This was one of our first visits. I had driven a half hour from my Baltimore home into the woody hills of
central Maryland to Jessup Correctional Institution to see Wes. Immediately upon entering the building,
was sternly questioned by an armed guard and searched to ensure I wasn't bringing in anything that
could be passed on to Wes. Once I was cleared, another guard escorted me to a large room that
reminded me of a public school cafeteria. This was the secured area where prisoners and their visitors
came together. Armed guards systematically paced around the room. Long tables with low metal dividers
separating the visitors from the visited were the only furnishings. The prisoners were marched in dressed
in orange or blue jumpsuits, or gray sweat suits with "DOC" emblazoned across the chests. The uniforms
reinforced the myriad other signals around us: the prisoners were owned by the state. Lucky inmates
were allowed to sit across regular tables from loved ones. They could exchange an initial hug and then
talk face-to-face. The rest had to talk to their families and friends through bulletproof glass using a
telephone, visitor and prisoner connected by receivers they held tight to their ears
Just as I was about to ask another question, Wes interrupted me.
"Let me ask you a question. You come here and ask me all these questions, but you haven't shared any of
yourself up with me. So tell me what impact did your father not being there have on your childhood?"
"I don't know-"I was about to say more when I realized that I didn't really have more to say
"Do you miss him?" he asked me.
"Every day. All the time." I replied softly, I was having trouble finding my voice. It always amazed me how
could love so deeply, so intensely, someone I barely knew. I was taught to remember, but never question.
Wes was taught to forget, and never ask why. We learned our lessons well and were showing them of to a
tee We sat there just a few feet from each other, both silent, pondering an absence.
(1)Where is this conversation taking place?
(2)Who are the 2 people talking?
(3)What do they talk about in their conversation?
Setting: I would say jail / prison.
The story says; "This was the secured area where prisoners and their visitors
came together. Armed guards systematically paced around the room. Long tables with low metal dividers separating the visitors from the visited were the only furnishings. The prisoners were marched in dressed in orange or blue jumpsuits, or gray sweat suits with "DOC" emblazoned across the chests. The uniforms reinforced the myriad other signals around us: the prisoners were owned by the state."
( This may also be a different setting because the title is "Fathers and Angels", It may be prisoners of heaven or hell. Just my opinion! <3 )
The characters may be 2 inmates or 2 friends in prison / Jail.
I would answer more but I have a lottt of work to do! Good luck!

Explanation:
By checking the grammar and playing a little game of subtracting by adding, finding the answers to these are quite easy. For clarity, here's an example of what I did so you know what to do next time:
On number 1, we are given three options: "Do you tired?" "Are you tired?" "Do you are tired?"
Well, either you say it out loud and ask yourself if that makes sense or you think that question.
Nobody says "do you tired," so that's off the list.
Nobody says "do you are tired," which makes just as much sense as the one before it.
That leaves us with "Are you tired," which sounds grammatically correct.
Hope this helped!

Read the excerpt from Votes for Women:
Taking a more aggressive approach to women's suffrage was arguably more impactful in the short term. Alice Paul learned how to use this aggressive approach in England and brought it to the United States. For a while, she held a leadership position with the National American Woman Suffrage Association. She helped organize the March on Washington held on March 2, 1913, the day before President Wilson's inauguration. The parade was led by a human rights lawyer riding a white horse, and behind her women marched in costumes reflecting the nations that had already given women the vote. Multiple floats, bands, brigades, and costumed women paraded on through Washington, D.C. However, during the parade of protest, some men attacked the women and behaved poorly, and the police did nothing to stop it. The actions of the men led to an inquiry, which brought women's suffrage significant public awareness. However, some women did not agree with Paul's methods. Paul ultimately formed a separate group, which became known as the National Woman's Party. This group of women held marches and hunger strikes. They were also the first organization to organize a picket of the White House in January 1917. While their choice to picket during World War I angered some, their methods did make an impact and paved the way for women's suffrage to become law.
Both peaceful and aggressive approaches contributed to the ratification of the 19th Amendment on August 18, 1920. On November 2, women across the nation voted, which marked the beginning of the ongoing struggle to reform the rights of women in the United States.

. Which rhetorical strategy is used by Brutus: "There is tears for his love, joy for his fortune, honor for his valor, and death for his ambitio
Answer:
The rhetorical strategy used by Brutus is parallelism.
Explanation:
When using parallelism, speakers will repeat words, phrases, or grammatical structures in their speech. The purpose is to balance ideas that have the same importance in way that simplifies the speech and draws the attention of the audience. In Brutus's sentence, there is the repetition of a grammatical structure: noun + "for his" + noun. The structure is underlined below:
There is tears for his love, joy for his fortune, honor for his valor, and death for his ambition."
The repetition of structure four times in a row makes the whole sentence easier to understand, especially because our brains learn what to expect. It is as if there is rhythm, cadence.
