Answer: Chapter 3
In Which We Encounter Several Other Persons, Many of Them Still Alive, With an Interest in the Fate of the Fallen Star
There's this place called the Stormhold. The first lord of Stormhold carved it out of the peak of Mount Huon, where it perches high in the sky among storm clouds.
By now we're onto the 81st lord of Stormhold, and he's on his deathbed, so he summons all his kids, and they come to him, both the dead (the ghosts of Secundus, Quintus, Quartus, and Sextus) and the living (Primus, Tertius, and Septimus).
The dying lord removes his topaz necklace (you know, the one whose wearer, if of Stormhold blood, becomes the ruler of Stormhold) and tosses it out into the night sky. He tells his sons that whoever retrieves it will become the next lord of Stormhold. It glimmers and falls, like a falling star.
The brothers take care of their father's body before setting out to find it, or trying to kill each other. Less competition is better, right?
In another part of Faerie, three old witches, the Lilim, live in a hovel. It's pretty dirty.
The only clean thing in the hovel is a gigantic black mirror… inside of which, three women live, though they aren't old like the witch sisters. Their movements mirror those of the witches, though. Mysterious, right?
One of the sisters cuts open a dead animal to use its entrails to divine. She gets all excited, saying there's a fallen star, and it's about time; they decide to send out the eldest sister to fetch it.
She reaches inside a box for a small golden something that tries to evade her grasp, eats it, and then becomes young and beautiful again (and simultaneously, one of the three women vanishes from the black mirror).
So the witch-queen sets off to reclaim the fallen star. Bad news, we're guessing.
In still another part of Faerie (because it's, like, huge), in a glade, a bright light shines brighter and brighter.
Suddenly it's extinguished, and a female voice says ow and a choice curse word or two.

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question
Read “My Father’s Sadness” by Shirley Geok-lin Lim
Evaluate Are lines 18–19, "the mangrove netted by lianas, the host perishing of its lavishness," an effective ending for the poem? Support your view by explaining both the literal image created by the lines as well as their figurative meaning.
Answer:
It´s an effective ending because it uses a beautiful metaphor deeply connected to the author´s and her father's heritage.
Explanation:
The literal image is that of a decaying mangrove, a kind of tree found mostly in Asia, from where the father of the poem is from. This type of tree is the host to organic content that feeds from the tree´s ecosystem.
The figurative meaning is that of the dying father, who has succumbed to the responsibilities of being the sole provider of the family.
“Now he felt the chilled dust push up between his toes, and he let the muscles of his feet spread and settle into the shapes of the earth…”

B. It is an example of an unreliable narrator.
C. It is an example of kinesthetic imagery.
D. It is an example of lyrical poetry.
She is contrasting it with rubbery whit wipes then she clearly doesn't think something ought to be eaten.
What is message behind the poem?Gerard Manley Hopkins, brought into the world in 1844, was a creative Victorian writer who thought of the idea of sprung musicality.
In verse, the motivation behind sprung mood is to sound like normal discourse, as though one is talking normally.
Hence, it incorporates one pushed syllable and an unsure number or unstressed syllables after it. Definitively in light of the fact that it takes into consideration variety to occur, it sounds like normal discourse.
Notice that, assuming you read the passage without holding back, the cadence will be ordinary, very much like talking. Typically, verse would sound more like music, with an example to be followed and anticipated.

Which of the following is an evaluative thesis? a. Keeping a regular schedule is so much better than letting each day's schedule be different and random.
Answer:
this is missing a few answers
Answer:
Keeping a regular schedule is so much better than letting each day's schedule be different and random.
Explanation:
The other options were
Fruit salads and vegetable salads: there are good and bad things about both.
Astrology and astronomy both deal with studying the stars, but they are not the same.
Keeping a regular schedule is so much better than letting each day's schedule be different and random.
Having a guinea pig as a pet is both similar to and different from having a snake as a pet.
An evaluative thesis is one that shows an opinion on a topic. And the only option here that shows a bias or leaning to one side is "Keeping a regular schedule is so much better than letting each day's schedule be different and random." Which is showing that the author believes each day should be planned.

Smith, who was poet laureate before her. The position is officially called "Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry." She will receive $35,000 to serve for the year.

You should have two or three major characters and a few minor characters as well. Focus on fully developing the major characters’ physicals traits, personalities, and backgrounds. Remember, all characters should be realistic and believable.
Answer:
Major character #1- Velma Terrace, she/her, age- 20, employment- author
partner- N/A, role- protagonist
- physical description- Dark skin woven with sunspots, curls of chocolate brown hair, two toned irises- one seawater blue and the other stormy grey, full figure, and light ebony glasses.
-personality- somewhat "bitter sweet", she can be a tad rude, sarcastic, has a healthy dose of confidence, can occasionally be pretty nice
-background- raised in San Antonio TX, moved to Boston the minute she turned 18 due to her mother. Had an odd obsession with literature and fiction since she was very young.
Major character #2- Danae Terrace, she/her, age- 59, employment- secretary
partner- widowed, role- antagonist
-physical description- "Dusty" olive skin and high cheekbones, a slight Belizean appearance, thinning black hair streaked with gray, and dulled blue eyes
personality- similar to Velma, high in confidence yet not self absorbed, however most feelings are masked, a bit of a blank-slate, despite her seemingly weak state she is extremely manipulative, abusive, and passive aggressive
-background- originally wed to Arron Terrace, whom later died in the military, she blamed Velma for his death and drifted away from her daughter.
