Answer 1

Answer: C

Her pain seeps through her lettering slowly at first, then it rushes at the reader to make the strongest point of all; the standard of “American Beauty” is still haunting her to this day. One point I would like to bring up is that not all cultural standards are bad. There is some amount of stereotyping which we all must exist within the confines of if we are to live in this world.

I can feel her as an insecure teenager, and later as a wounded adult. She is strong, and I believe that she does not still exist within the confines of her standard of beauty that she had as a teenager, but she is very much aware of how this still affects her subconscious. I believe she would like to see the view of beauty (in today’s society) as allowing all people to be different, but all equally beautiful – without judgment. It is not impossible to change the very essence of who and what society is – after all, are we not the very people who create our own society on a daily basis? When one can realize this, one needn’t be stuck in this cultural muck (too terribly much). I have hope that things can change.

Activity
Research and read about the stress study conducted in Baltimore called "Shifting the Lens," which focused on stressors in African-American urban
teenagers. As a young adult, do you agree with the findings of the study and the stressors that it identifies? What are the main stressors in your
life? What do you do to cope effectively with stress?

Answers

Answer:

(Answers may vary)

Yes, I do agree with the findings of the Baltimore study “Shifting the Lens.” The study found that parents, family, and interpersonal relationships with school friends are the leading stressors in a teenager’s life. Most people believe that the leading causes of stress are problems with authority, peer pressure, drugs, alcohol, and so on. While this is true to some extent for many teenagers, most teenagers have a harder time coping with everyday stressors.

Some of my main stressors include family problems (disagreements with my parents about my allowance, chores, and curfew); my performance at school (I’m good at languages, but I struggle with math); my worries about the future (about what colleges will accept me); and my hectic schedule, crammed full of school and sports activities. My schedule can be hard to juggle and leaves me with very little personal time.

To cope with my stress, I have my family and my closest friends for support. When I’m upset with my parents, I talk to them about it. My friends have similar stresses, so they empathize. In addition to sharing how I feel, I’ve also found that hobbies help to take my mind off the stressors. Therefore, no matter how busy I am, I try to paint and read when I’m feeling stressed. Keeping a diary also helps me to process my thoughts and feelings. Sometimes, instead of immediately reacting to a stressor, I write down how I’m feeling. It helps me to vent as well as to calm down and rationalize my feelings.

Which lines from Walt Whitman's "O Captain! My Captain!" belong to the praise stage of the elegy?
O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up--for you the flag is flung-for you the bugle trills,
For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths--for you the shores a crowding,
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning:
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head!
It is some dream that on the deck
You've fallen cold and dead.
My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will,
The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;
Exult o shores, and ring O bells!
But I with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

What does this excerpt from Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night reveal about Duke Orsino?

DUKE: If music be the food of love, play on,
Give me excess of it; that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken and so die.—
That strain again;—it had a dying fall;
O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet south,
That breathes upon a bank of violets,
Stealing and giving odour.—Enough; no more;
'Tis not so sweet now as it was before.

Answers

Answer:

Orsino, the lovesick duke of Illyria, speaks these lines. He introduces the audience to the theme of love as overpowering and fickle. He calls sweet music the "food of love" and wants "an excess of it" so that he can satisfy his appetite for it. However, when the music is no longer sweet, Orsino compares it to the sea. Like the sea, it engulfs everything and debases its value to a "low price." He concludes that love can change from sweet music to an engulfing sea in a matter of one minute. He also suggests that it shifts shape at whim. The fickleness of love reflects Orsino’s own inconstant nature, casting him as self-indulgent and melodramatic. Finally, because Orsino never names the object of his love in these opening lines, the emotional outpouring indicates that Orsino is consumed more by the idea of love than by love for Olivia.

Define oral and written communication. Which communication is prior according to you written or oral?

Answers

Answer:

Oral communication involves the transmission of information using spoken words. In oral communication, the pace of delivery of such information is speedy and therefore, there might be a case of misunderstanding of such message. This form of communication is mostly considered as informal.

An example of oral communication is the delivery of a speech in a school debate.

Written communication on the other hand involves the exchange of message or information in a printed or written form. This method of communication is considered formal since proper documentation for referential purposes can be done.

An example of written communication is sending an email to a colleague at work.

Both communication forms are great in their own usages, but the oral communication is seen as prior as this is the oldest form of communication. Also, one tends to learn to speak before they write.

Which characteristic of "Sonnet XII" shows that the poem is a
sonnet?
A: It is written in Medieval English.
B: Most of the words have two syllables.
C: All of the lines rhyme.
D: It is written in iambic pentameter.

Answers

The correct answer is D. It is written in iambic pentameter.

Explanation

A sonnet is a type of fourteen-line poem written in iambic pentameter. The iambic pentameter as its name implies is the sequence of five iambs. An iamb is an unstressed (symbolized with x) syllable followed by an accented one (symbolized with /).

Another characteristic of the sonnet is a structure of two quartets and two triples, that is, the first four lines rhyme, the next four lines rhyme, the next three lines rhyme, and the last three lines rhyme.

According to the above, the Sonnet XII by William Shakespeare is a sonnet because its first four verses rhyme with its last words: time, night, prime, and white. The second quartet also rhymes with words: leaves, herd, sheaves, and beard.

First triple rhyme with words make, go, forsake; second triple rhyme with words: grow, defense, and hence.

Also, if we examine any verse we can confirm that it was written in iambic pentameter, for example:

When(x) I(/) do(x) count(/) the(x) clock(/) that(x) tells(/) the(x) time(/).

So, the correct answer is D. It is written in iambic pentameter.
