Answer:
Falling action.
Explanation:
Gregory Djanikian's narrative poem "How I Learned English" revolves around the author's newfound way of learning the adopted language. It also tells of the hardships yet at times humorous ways of trying to learn the language through his love of the game of baseball.
In the given lines, the narrator talks of how he managed to get back up from his blunder of using wrong English. But though mistaken, the others find it funny and all had a hearty laugh over the narrator's mistake. And then, the narrator continues, "though my head felt heavy, I played on till dusk Missing flies and pop-ups and grounders And calling out in desperation things like "Yours" and "take it," but doing all right". These lines form the part of the poem's falling action, leading the story/poem towards its end.

Which can readers use to find the meaning of an unfamiliar word? Check all that apply.
root words
formal words
word endings
parts of speech
length of speech
Answer:
Root words
Explanation:
Sometimes when you found an unfamiliar word in a text you can use references of the context to infer the meaning of that one you missed, find comparisons and opposite if the text provides them.
Root words can readers use to find the meaning of an unfamiliar word.
Hence option A is correct.
What is Root words ?A root word is the central part of a word that cannot be broken down into more significant components. A root is a morphologically straightforward unit in morphology that can be left unadorned or to which a prefix or a suffix can be attached. The base word, also known as the root word, is the main lexical unit of a word and a word family that holds features of semantic information and cannot be broken down into smaller components. Nearly all languages have content words that can only be made out of root morphemes. The word "root" may also refer to a word that has retained its lexical endings but lacks its inflectional endings in specific contexts. For instance, the inflectional root or lemma for chatters.
When reading a document, you can come across an unknown term and utilize context clues to deduce its meaning. You might also look for contrasts and analogies if the text has those.
Hence option A is correct.

Read the following passages:
But looking, I presently saw something stirring within the
shadow. ... Then something resembling a little gray snake,
about the thickness of a walking stick, coiled up out of the
writhing middle and wriggled in the air toward me and
then another."
-H. G. Wells, The War of the Worlds
Good heavens, something's wriggling out of the shadow
like a gray snake. Now it's another one, and another. They
look like tentacles to me.
-Orson Welles's radio adaptation of War of the Worlds
What choice does Welles make that causes the radio broadcast to feel like it
is happening live?
A. He changes the perspective to the first person.
B. He changes the verbs to present tense.
O C. He changes the details of the scene to be more frightening.
D. He changes the tone of the story to be less dramatic.
Answer: B. He changes the verbs to present tense.
Explanation:
In the adaptation, the biggest difference made was how he worded it to make it sound like it was happening in present tense.
Details were changed but not enough for it to be the main reason that the story felt like it was happening live so C. and D. are wrong.
The perspective was already in first person to begin with so A. is wrong as well.
The only option left is B. and we can see that he does change the story to be in present tense which is a good explanation as to how the story sounded like it was happening live.
I hope this helps!
The use of present tense verbs also creates a sense of urgency and tension, which heightens the suspense and makes the audience feel more engaged in the story. Thus, option B is correct.
What is the present tense verb?Present tense verbs are verbs that describe actions that are currently happening or habitual actions. In English, present tense verbs typically end in "-s" in the third person singular form (e.g. "he walks," "she talks," "it runs") and do not require an auxiliary verb (e.g. "is," "are," "am") to form the present tense.
Examples of present tense verbs in the present simple tense include "I walk," "you talk," "we run," "they eat." In the context of the passage, the use of present tense verbs in Orson Welles's radio adaptation of The War of the Worlds creates a sense of immediacy and makes the events feel like they are happening in real-time.

Explanation:
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 2 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?
Explanation:
In the poem , the poet uses the word ‘dance’ quite a few times .
In the 2nd stanza , Wordsworth had used the word ‘dance’ to show that the daffodils were moving to and fro due to the breeze . It seemed like the flowers were dancing joyously , as if in rapture , in the gentle breeze . The movement of the daffodils had been described as ‘ tossing their heads in a sprightly dance ’ .
In the 4th stanza , poet William uses the word ‘dance’ to show that his pleasure-filled heart started to dance when introduced to the memory of those 10,000 daffodils along the margin of the bay . The daffodils come back to the speaker's imaginative memory — access to which is a gift of solitude — and fills him with joy as his mind dances with the daffodils .

This question is missing the answer options. I was able to find them online. They are the following:
A. Women artists face difficult paths when pursuing careers.
B. Women need to feel they are determining their own fate.
C. Women are often expected to conform to roles set by society.
D. Women often suffer great abuses in male-dominated societies.
Answer:
The excerpt contributes most to the feminist theme:
C. Women are often expected to conform to roles set by society.
Explanation:
The short play "Trifles" was written by American playwright Susan Glaspell, who was born in 1876. The play is full of feminist themes, one of them being developed in the passage we are analyzing here.
First, let's briefly understand the context. The county attorney, along with the sheriff and Mr. Hale are looking for evidence to prove that a certain woman, Minnie Wright, has killed her husband. With them are Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters (the sheriff's wife). As the play unfolds, it is the women who will discover evidence that leads to the motive behind Mr. Wright's murder. However, all the while, the men talk to them or refer to them and other women in general as if they only worry about trifles - as if women's reasoning were inferior.
In the particular passage we are analyzing, the county attorney is judging Mrs. Wright's performance as a housewife. He expects her to conform to a certain role. She must obey her husband, keep the house spotless, cook delicious food, etc. He does not take a moment to wonder why her house is in such disarray. Was something bad happening to her? Did she and her husband have problems? Was she depressed? None of that crosses his mind. He judges her according to his expectations, and that is it.
Answer:
women are often expected to conformt to roles set by society

In sentence 10 (reproduced below), the writer wants to compare a specific difference between making pennies now and making pennies at an earlier time.
In 2001, it cost 0.79 cents to make a penny, but now, with metal costs increasing, the cost has changed in a noteworthy way.
Which of the following versions of the underlined text most effectively accomplishes this goal?
A. (as it is now)
B. the cost has soared to 1.8 cents per penny
C. economists worry that the penny is unsustainable
D. the United States Mint has looked into less expensive metals
E. the penny is made of only 2.5% copper
Answer:
B. the cost has soared to 1.8 cents per penny.
Explanation:
In the given sentence, the reproduction of the given sentence means changing the sentence or particular line into a more refined or better version. This will be in tune with maintaining the meaning of the replaced line or words while trying to 'change' it.
While the first part of the sentence provides the previous cost of making pennies, the second part is about the current cost. And in the given sentence, "the cost has changed in a noteworthy way" can be changed into "the cost has soared to 1.8 cents per penny" to make the point much clearer. This change will ensure that the readers know and understand the 'hike' in the cost of penny making, which also completes the comparison.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. Which best describes the effect of allusion on the meaning in this excerpt?
Answer:
In simple words, Season's "first green" flowers are connected to golden, earth's most valuable metal, instantly cementing gold as a metaphor of anything that is new, young, and lovely.
The following line, "Her hardest hue to hold," indicates that maintaining the innocent of the initial greens is the most difficult things to accomplish and he adds, "Her first leaf's a blossom / only so an evening." This is the third time he uses an analogy, suggesting that a blade is a bloom (and green is gold).

Answer:
1. In this busy, expensive life, television is an easy and cheap source of entertainment.
2. By watching international news, we are kept informed and up-to-date with breaking news around the world.
3. Some shows and channels (like PBS and Discovery) offer educational programs that can increase our knowledge and make us more aware of the world around us.
4. Do-it-yourself shows give us easy access to all kinds of information: Cooking channels offer new recipes and methods, home improvement shows introduce us to many money-saving DIY tips, and financial advisers give advice for managing finances and investing money, for example. Television can also be a good way to help people learn a different language.
5. Some shows can motivate people who are interested in that field and help them to pursue their dreams.
6. Television can help you feel less lonely. Psychologists coined the term "social surrogacy" to explain how television can fill the shoes of absent friends or family. In one study published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, researchers found that people who watch a favorite TV show report feeling less lonely during the show.
7. TV can expand your mind. Some shows let you travel vicariously and teach you about different people, cultures, ideas, and places you might never encounter in real life. Watching a variety of shows might give us a broader understanding of the world we live in and expose us to things we might otherwise never come across in our own lives.
8. TV can make you feel like part of a group and let you participate in a shared subculture. In social situations where you may find yourself surrounded by strangers with whom you have nothing in common, a popular show or televised sporting event might give you something to talk about.
9. Gathering around the television gives families, friends, and strangers something to bond over. Even if you're not interested in the Olympics, watching the games with your family might bring you closer together; reminiscing about shows you've watched together gives you shared history and memories.
10. There may be certain health benefits to watching television. If a certain show makes you laugh, for example, then an argument can be made for its mood-elevating merits. While exercising, television can distract you from what you're doing and therefore enable you to last longer on the treadmill (there's a good reason why so many gyms have televisions, after all!). One study from the University of Rochester found that people felt more energetic after watching nature scenes.
Brook states that the distance on the line is 4 units. Caleb states that the whole line does not have a distance because it continues on forever. Vivian states that the line is 6 units long. A number line goes from negative 8 to positive 8. A line with arrows as endpoints is above the line and contains points L, M, N. A closed circle appears at negative 6 and is labeled L. A closed circle appears at negative 2 and is labeled M. A closed circle appears at positive 4 and is labeled N. Which distance did Brook measure? Which distance did Vivian measure?
Hi. You forgot to show the image of the line this question refers to. This makes it difficult for your question to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly like yours, which showed an image of the line. This line is in the image attached below. If that was your case, I hope this answer can help you:
Answer:
Brook was measuring the distance between L and M, while Vivian was measuring the distance between M and N.
Explanation:
You will be able to answer this question very simply, as you only need to count the units between every two points on the line. If you count the first unit after point L to the unit that marks point M, you will see that there are 4 units, as Brok noted. If you do the same thing between points M and N, you will see that there are 6 units of distance, as Vivian noted.
Answer: 1.) the distance between L and M
2.) the distance between M and N
