Answer: The possible answer could be "To create a sense of doubt in the reader"
Explanation: Since it shows how the author says, "You may be thinking that looking at birds is silly, but just think about the numbers of the recent record-holders and its commitment to get these numbers." basically showing that the reader/person is wrong about looking at birds is silly. And then shows a reason why it is not.

( In the song Firework by Katy Perry identified all of the figurative languages)
plz helpppp
Explanation:
Onomatopoeia= "Boom, boom, boom"
Metaphor= "Baby, you're a firework,"
Simile= "Do you ever feel, like a plastic bag,"
In the first verse of the song, imagery is used to describe feeling broken down and defeated. For ex, "Do you ever feel so paper thin, like a house of cards, one blow from caving in"
Personification= "Do you ever feel, like a plastic bag, drifting through the wind, wanting to start again" (This verse is both a simile and personification) or you can use "what the future holds"
Alliteration= "Show 'em what you're worth"
Hyperbole= " heart will blow"
Idiom= "Let your colors burst"
Allusion= "House of cards" Allusion to children's game of building houses from playing cards. A symbol for fragility

Write two paragraphs (6 sentences minimum per paragraph) on nature. Provide descriptive words for the natural world, its daily activity, and how it interacts with itself. Trees and wind. Waves and sand. Birds and other birds. Creatures and other creatures.
please helppppp
btw.. NO FILES >:-(
Answer:
Explanation:
Nature can be defined as the physical world and the life which interacts with it. It is the total of the ecosystem, animals, birds, plants, landscapes, and humans. Nature not just includes life but also is the host for the non-living physical entities as well. Nature took billions of years to grow and form to shape what we see today.
Nature has given us everything. The sweet sound of chirping birds to hear every morning, crystal clear water to drink every day, a cold breeze to feel, pure air to breathe in, and mouth-watering food to eat is entirely pleasing. Mother Nature has always nourished us. It has always taken care of us and has provided us with all the necessities of life. It has provided shelter to birds and animals, shade to travellers, and even branches to tie swigs for children to enjoy.
Today, humans are harming the environment by polluting and damaging it. Many organizations are working to make nature cleaner. It is our duty to keep our surroundings clean and use biodegradable material to keep nature clean. We have to revive Mother Nature, who has always nourished and nurtured us.

C.Why should one share a meal with strangers?

Answer:
D. Is it fair that some eat like kings while many live on crumbs?
Explanation:
I used the process of elimination.
Answer A. isn't specifically about food, whereas this cartoon seems to make a great display of it.
B. and C. don't make sense.
D. makes sense because we can see that the people below are hungry and want the food too, so they are holding their plates up waiting for the crumbs to fall down. The food is turkey, which is expensive-and a whole turkey too! The person eating it is well dressed and the people below are not dressed as nicely. Therefore, I believe this cartoon is trying to make the viewers think about whether it is fair or not that some eat like kings while many live on crumbs.
Hope this helps!

On this day in 1892, the original Pledge of Allegiance was published. This is not the pledge we recite today because it has been revised two times since its original publication. Do you think all classrooms in the United States should be required to recite the Pledge of Allegiance each day? Should students or teachers have the option not to say the pledge? Why or why not?
What do you think?
Bullet
It’s hard to dodge a bullet
Before the trigger is pulled
You can’t run away from it
No matter how good
Once its shot
Your going to fall down
Going to get caught
Next thing you know
Your on the ground
With the crowd running around
The bullet had got you
And shots are being heard
There’s nothing you can do
All but say a word
You need to escape
But with every breath you take
Burns your lungs
Burns your body
The guns start to show
D.ead people are being emboded
But you have to stay down low
Pretend your d.ead
So they’ll leave you instead
Crawl away
Slowly
Or just stay
Since they are unholy
Once they leave
Crawl out of there at once
But please don’t be naive
For they can still be on the hunt
The bullet is piercing you
And all you can do
Is call the hospital
And put a popsicle
On your injury
Make it numb
Make it du.mb
Stop the bleeding
Before your time runs away fleeting
And you stop breathing
It’s hard to dodge a bullet
To bad you didn’t do it

It is expatiated by the subject's relationship with his "friends" in that it highlights the fact that although he jumps into a barrel to prove that he is brave, a barrel that would then be allowed to roll down the hill with him on the inside and his friends somewhat indifferent at the risk he was about to take. See the following excerpt from the poem:
Their faces, you know are blank with anticipation,
The look you see when they watch TV eating popcorn.
They are already talking about you as if you're gone...

what happens to ha's school in inside out and back again?
Answer:
Hà is our main girl in Inside Out and Back Again, the poet whose words we read as she goes from enjoying her free time in Saigon to—after much trial and tribulation—finally starting to settle into life in the United States, all thanks to the Vietnam War. She might only be ten years old, but Hà sees a lot in the year this book covers, and it's safe to say that she's wise beyond her years.
Explanation:
Spice
For someone so nice, Hà has a feisty side to her. She likes to compete and feel smart, and when she doesn't, well, she's not exactly one to just sit back and let things slide. So when she is totally annoyed by her brothers, instead of kissing up or making nice in hopes of getting them to treat her better, she writes:
I can't make my brothers
Go live elsewhere,
but I can
hide their sandals.
It's classic younger sibling behavior, right? We're guessing Hà's not familiar with the old phrase you kill more flies with honey. Considering that they each only have one pair of shoes and it's hot out, this sneaky little scheme becomes a real pain in the foot, so it's no wonder her brothers don't respond by showering her with kindnesses.
The thing about Hà, though, is that she doesn't just act out to get revenge on her pesky older brothers—she does it to feel a sense of power at school, too. For instance, when she is working away on a math problem in school one day, and the siren interrupts her by going off, she tells us:
I'm mad and pinch the girl
who shares my desk.
Tram is half my size,
so skinny and nervous.
Our mothers are friends.
She will tell on me.
She always tells on me.
It seems like Hà pinches Tram because the siren interrupting her is the last straw in a long line of small moments in which Hà feels powerless, not because Hà is actually mean or anything, though Tram might not agree. So while Hà pesters her brothers in a pretty standard fashion, when she pinches Tram we are reminded that Hà has had more hardship and unfairness than most other children—so much, in fact, that a siren going off during a math problem is enough to make her boil over for a moment.
Sugar
Hà isn't always feisty, however, and she can also be sweet, kind, thoughtful, and observant. For instance, when Khoi's dead (and totally rotting) chick is found and taken from him, he is freaking out and totally depressed. His sister recognizes his pain (instead of, say, being grossed out that he's been hiding a dead chick), and does the following:
I hold his hand:Come with me.
He doesn't resist.
[…]
Inside lies my mouse-bitten doll,
her arms wrapped around
the limp fuzzy body of his chick.
I tie it all into a bundle.
Hà takes her doll—pretty much the only personal belonging she was able to take from Saigon when they left—and she wraps it around the dead chick, then throws the bundle into the ocean. That fact that Hà sacrifices her own comfort object to comfort her brother is a remarkably thoughtful and humble act, and one that shows maturity beyond her ten years. So while she might hide her brothers' shoes, she also really loves them, and is willing to do whatever she can to make sure they know it.
And Everything Nice
Though she has a hard time accepting the incredible changes her life goes through, by the end of the book, things are looking up for Hà. She and her family are in their own home, kids are being nicer to her at school, and she's regained a sense of hope for her future. So though Hà has seen more than her fair share of hardship during the past year, including moving halfway around the world and confirmation of the death of her father, her resilience is undeniable, which should only serve her well going forward.

Leader Paylor's initial life is obscure, in any case, as an inhabitant of District 8, she no doubt worked in the area's material production lines like most different residents.
What happened when Katniss meets Paylor?Katniss initially meets Paylor when she goes to District 8's clinic to film a propo for the Airtime Assault on the Capitol. Paylor takes Katniss alongside Gale Hawthorne, Boggs, and the TV group into the clinic.
Paylor watches Katniss intently, to see if she is tough where it really counts and on the off chance that they have been on the whole correct to depend on her.
Alongside a couple of others, Paylor appeared to detect that President Coin was not a reliable person to lead the insubordination.
