(a) poet's risk taking habit
(b) arrogance of the poet
(c) poet's curiosity
(d) poet's negligence

Answers

Answer:

2)Based on the information in both texts, what is a difference between the butterfly and frog life cycles?
A)Frogs lose their tails and also grow gills and legs while in a pupa stage.

B)Butterflies go through a pupa stage, and only frogs go through an egg stage.

C)Butterflies transform in a pupa stage, and frogs transform while living in water.

D)Butterflies lay eggs in large masses, while frogs lay their eggs in small clusters.

Answers

Butterflies go through a pupa state. Frogs don't. So the correct option is  C.

While hibernating in the Chrysalis (or pupa state in its cocoon), the butterfly transforms and emerges from the cocoon an adult butterfly.

Frogs go from Eggs, to tadpoles, to froglets, to adult frogs.

Butterflies go from Eggs, to Caterpillar, to Pupa, to adults.

So as already contained in the text, the frog life cycle is in 5 stages while that of the butterfly is in four.

The frog completes its life cycle in about two to four years.

The butterfly on the other hand may take between one month to one year.

Answers

Answer:

The fight for equal rights, basic rights like equal education, were brought to the forefront of America’s attention during the African American Civil Rights movement of the 1950s and 60s. Just as we saw in the Civil War-era work The Lord is My Shepherd, which depicted a newly emancipated black man reading the Bible, here too, in the depiction of African Americans reading in a library we are reminded that the ability to read, to educate oneself is the ultimate form of empowerment and best tool with which to combat oppression. The two African Americans shown in a cramped confined space are visually and literally restricted, both by horizontal barriers and by their status as minorities in the 1950s. The work alludes to the lack of opportunities and education open to blacks. The landmark decision of the Supreme Court in the case Brown v. Board of Education in 1954 helped begin to heal discriminatory divides. The court declared separate public schools unconstitutional, stating that “separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.”

Your peer wrote this passage. Which does she need to change? Kissing the Blarney Stone gives the gift of eloquently speech. It’s much more dangerous to accomplish this job when the stone is wet because you have to lean out from the castle’s prodigious height, a feat which can cause even the most brave person to shudder.

Answers

The peer needs to change the following in this passage: She should change eloquently because this is an adverb and most brave because that is the incorrect form of this comparable adjective.

Eloquently, which is an adverb that shows the manner in which something happened should be changed and replaced with the adjective, Eloquent.

An adjective is proper because it modifies the noun, gift, in the sentence. Most brave should also be replaced with bravest.

Bravest is the superlative adjective that fits best into the description.

After walking for miles in the cold, Eliezer and his father were pretty exhausted, like all prisoners.They saw many die of exhaustion while walking, but they also saw many die in the snow when they lay down to rest.They realized that the cold and tiredness could be a dangerous combination for life and so they decided to stay awake at any cost.

D.

Answers

Answer:

C) There is a bay in Puerto Rico that seems to light up at night; the light comes from tiny organisms in the water.

Explanation:

A semi-colon usually stands in for a period when two sentences are related. In the sentence, "There is a bay in Puerto Rico that seems to light up at night; the light comes from tiny organisms in the water," you can replace the semi-colon with a period and it would still make sense. They relate to each other as well. So this sentence is punctuated correctly.

(Further explanation for those who really need it):

A doesn't make sense because the semi-colon isn't needed. It'd need a comma in place of the semi-colon.

B doesn't make sense because the semi-colon isn't needed, either. It'd need a comma in place of the semi-colon.

C is correct. It is explained above.

D could possibly use a semi-colon, but it's placed in the wrong spot. It'd probably be placed between "world" and "people." But it sounds a little janky to me, so I think it doesn't need a semi-colon at all. "World" should have a period after it and the "p" in "people" needs to be capitalized. Either way, it isn't punctuated correctly.

What is the poem about?Walt Whitman's "I Hear America Singing" is a poem that praises the American working class. Whitman mentions several types of workers - carpenters, mechanics, seamstresses, etc. - as a way to indicate that it is the working class that makes America the promising country it is.Whitman is basically complimenting the working class throughout the poem, conveying the idea that their hard work and dignity are fundamental for the country.Although the poem says those workers sing, it does not mean it in a literal way. The singing in the poem is a symbol of the worker's joy and determination. Therefore, the poem is not about music itself.

With the information above in mind, we can say that the only option to be classified with a "no" is number 2.

Which passage on the left uses the best VARIETY of sentence structure and sentence length ?

A. Passage A
B. Passage B
C. Passage C
D. Passage D

Answers

Answer:

Passage C.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the other passages.

Passage A only uses simple sentence structures and all sentences are of simillar length.

Passage B only uses compound sentence structures, and all sentences are of similiar length.

Passage D uses both simple and compound sentence structures but no complex ones. Sentence length is varied.

But Passage C uses all four sentence structures: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. Sentence length is varied.

Sentence Structures:S i m p l e

A simple sentence consists of one independent clause. (An independent clause contains a subject and verb and expresses a complete thought.)

Example: I like coffee.

C o m p o u n d

A compound sentence is two (or more) independent clauses joined by a conjunction or semicolon. Each of these clauses could form a sentence alone.    

Example: I like coffee, and she likes tea.

There are seven coordinating conjunctions:  

for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so. FANBOYS is a mnemonic device, which stands for these coordinating conjunctions.

C o m p l e x

A complex sentence consists of an independent and a dependent clause. A dependent clause starts with a subordinating conjunction, contains a subject and verb, but does not express a complete thought.  

Example: Although I like coffee, she likes tea.

C o m p o u n d - C o m p l e x

A compound-complex sentence consists of at least two independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses.  

Example: I drink coffee because I like it, but she likes tea.

Read the poem and answer the question.

[1]I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
[5]Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
[10]Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
[15]A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
[20]In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

Wordsworth uses the word "dance" throughout his poem. In a paragraph of 3-5 sentences, analyze how the poet uses "dance" in stanzas 1 and 4. Who is dancing in these two stanzas? In each instance, what does the use of the word "dance" reveal about Wordsworth's view of nature?

Answers

Answer:

The daffodils are dancing! Not literally, of course, since this is personification. Wordsworth sees nature as beautiful and light, like how a dancer would be. It shines light on the good of the world, in the form of making something as non-human as a flower have more human qualities.

Explanation:

By "human qualities" I mean things like dancing, singing, holding objects, talking, whispering, etc.
