_2. The stars and the sun and the moon guided early explorers.
Where to put the commas?
Answer:
The stars, and the sun, and the moon guided early explorers.
Explanation:
The literary device in which the same conjunction is repeated multiple times is called the polysyndeton. The conjunction most often used like this is and.
This is an unconventional use of conjunctions. It would be more natural to write the given sentence like this:
The stars, the sun, and the moon guided early explorers.Since this use is not conventional, there are no strict rules regarding punctuation. In literature, there are versions with and without the commas before the conjunctions. If you need to put the commas somewhere, you'd put one before each conjunction. The given sentence would look like this:
The stars, and the sun, and the moon guided early explorers.Which passage is chronological?

Passage #1 – Chemical and Physical Changes
All matter, all things can be changed in two ways: chemically and physically. Both chemical and physical changes affect the state of matter. Physical changes are those that do not change the make-up or identity of the matter. For example, clay will bend or flatten if squeezed, but it will still be clay. Changing the shape of clay is a physical change, and does not change the matter’s identity. Chemical changes turn the matter into a new kind of matter with different properties. For example, when paper is burnt, it becomes ash and will never be paper again. The difference between them is that physical changes are temporary or only last for a little while, and chemical changes are permanent, which means they last forever. Physical and chemical changes both affect the state of matter.
Passage #2 – The Best PB & J Ever
When I got home from school after a long boring day, I took out the peanut butter, jelly, and bread. After taking the lid off of the jars, I spread the peanut butter on one side of the bread and the jelly on the other, and then I put the two pieces of bread together. After that, I enjoyed it while watching “Cops” on the TV. I swear, that was the best peanut butter and jelly sandwich I ever ate.
Passage #3 – Bobby Fischer
Robert James Fischer was born in Chicago but unlocked the secrets of chess in a Brooklyn apartment right above a candy store. At the age of six he taught himself to play by following the instruction booklet that came with his chess board. After spending much of his childhood in chess clubs, Fischer said that, “One day, I just got good.” That may be a bit of an understatement. At the age of 13 he won the U.S. Junior Chess Championship, becoming the youngest Junior Champion ever. At the age of 14 he won the U.S. Championship and became the youngest U.S. Champion in history. Fischer would go on to become the World Champion of chess, but he would also grow to become his own worst enemy. Instead of defending the title, he forfeited it to the next challenger without even making a move, and the rise of a chess superstar ended with a fizzle.
Passage #4 – Save the Tigers
Dr. Miller doesn’t want the tigers to vanish. These majestic beasts are disappearing at an alarming rate. Dr. Miller thinks that we should write to our congress people. If we let them know that we demand the preservation of this species, maybe we can make a difference. Dr. Miller also thinks that we should donate to Save the Tigers. Our donations will help to support and empower those who are fighting the hardest to preserve the tigers. We owe it to our grandchildren to do something.
Passage #5 – The Great Recession
Many people are confused about why our economy went to shambles in 2008. The crisis was actually the result of a combination of many complex factors. First, easy credit conditions allowed people who were high-risk or unworthy of credit to borrow, and even people who had no income were eligible for large loans. Second, banks would bundle these toxic loans and sell them as packages on the financial market. Third, large insurance firms backed these packages, misrepresenting these high-risk loans as safe investments. Fourth, because of the ease of acquiring credit and the rapid growth in the housing market, people were buying two or three houses, intending to sell them for more than they paid. All of these factors created bubbles of speculation. These bubbles burst, sending the whole market into a downward spiral, causing employers to lose capital and lay off employees. Consumer spending then plummeted and most businesses suffered. The economy is like a big boat, and once it gets moving quickly in the wrong direction, it’s hard to turn it around.
Passage #6 – Screen Protector
Before applying the screen protector, clean the surface of your phone’s screen with a soft cloth. Once the surface of your screen is clean, remove the paper backing on the screen protector. Evenly apply the sticky side of the screen protector to your phone’s screen. Smooth out any air bubble trapped on between the protector and the phone screen. Enjoy the added protection.

3. Formulate a theme that the two myths share. Include text evidence in your response.
4a. What qualities do the animal characters in the sun myth and the spirit characters in the music myth possess that allow them to be successful in their own stories?
4b. What do these qualities suggest about the values of the cultures that first told these stories?
Answer:
This was a long one lol. Have a great day!
Explanation:
1. In the story, “How Grandmother Spider Stole the Sun,” the Sun is not as personified as it is it “How Music Came to the World.” In the latter, the Sun is stubborn and the reader has the impression that the Sun is stubborn and thinks highly of himself. They are similar though because both stories have a Sun that the protagonist is trying to retrieve.
2. In “How Music Came to the World,” the Sun doesn't cooperate with Quetzalcoatl causing him to lash out in anger. The Sun is too hot and far away in “How Grandmother Spider Stole the Sun,” though, that the characters face the problems of burns and trouble getting to the Sun.
3. Both myths have a similar theme. They both suggest that never giving up always pays off. In “How Grandmother Spider Stole the Sun,” Grandmother Spider knows that if they never give up, they will be able to retrieve the Sun. The story, “How Music Came to the World,” Quetzalcoatl doesn't stop trying. Soon, "the earth let out a slow sigh of relief. Its fruit began to ripen and its flowers began to bloom with new, deeper colours."
4a. In the sun myth, the characters teamwork helps them achieve their goals and be successful. In the music myth, Quetzalcoatl is persistent and never gave up. These traits helped these characters throughout the myths.
4b. These qualities likely meant that the traits were big parts of the cultures. The persistence of Quetzalcoatl probably meant Mesoamerican societies valued this quality. Teamwork was probably a large value in the culture in which it came from.

These texts are excerpts from the musical my fair lady and the play Pygmalion Which statements correctly describes a difference in these two texts?
Answer:
Hello. You did not show the texts to which this question refers.

An Adjective
Explanation:
An adjective is a word that tells us more about a noun. It "describes" or "modifies" a noun or pronoun. The most common way to find your adjective in a sentence is to of course find your noun, and then ask what word is describing that noun. Whatever that is, is more than likely your adjective.
