(RI.2.5) Read this sentence from the article.
I wonder what it would be like to have lived in a house where there were ruler
marks beside a door frame, documenting each of my childhood growth
spurts; to have a friend who's known me since nursery, not to feel like a
tourist, wandering around with a map in a country that I'm supposed to
embrace as my own
How does this sentence contribute to the effectiveness of the author's
argument overall?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

by referencing common childhood experiences that emphasize her feelings of being in limbo

Explanation:

This question is about the article "Am I rootless, or am I free?" where the author reflects on being a person who did not grow up in a single culture, but in a mixture of cultures from different places. According to the author, these experiences make her feel that no culture is hers, no country she lived in is really her home, she feels in limbo and wonders how she would have felt if she had the experiences that ordinary children you can have a best childhood friend and have a house with walls marked with its different dimensions during growth.

After reading the first few paragraphs, what inferences did you make about the story? Remember that inferences are
conclusions that are not clearly stated in the text but that you make based on the text's facts and details. Describe the
inferences you made in about 100 words.

Answers

Answer: I'm late but whatever

Explanation:

Plato answer:

From the first few paragraphs, we can infer that the story is about a man's adventure in nature as he is gathering firewood. Characters, Clay and Swanson, are introduced and we can guess that they have a friendly relationship. There are several mentions of Clay being back in time for dinner and we can infer that perhaps this won't happen because something will cause him to be delayed on his search for firewood. Both characters seem to be comfortable in nature so we can guess that they are used to being outside near the Yukon River.

Sample answer:

(Just the Plato answer but reworded differently)

After reading the first paragraphs, an infer can be made that the story is about someone going on an adventure in nature while they need to gather firewood. Eventually, Clay Dilham and Swanson are introduced as what we can guess, the main characters of the story. It seems that they have a close and friendly relationship. Clay mentions multiple times that he will be back in time for dinner but this won't happen since something will cause Clay's journey to get delayed and take him a little longer then he would like for it to. From what the first paragraphs state, we can tell that both Clay and Swanson are used to being never the Yukon River which we can infer that they are both very comfortable in nature.

"After reading the first few paragraphs, the inferences I made about the story is that the story is about a man's adventure in nature as he is gathering firewood."

There are many mentions of Clay be-ing back in time for din-ner & we can infer th-at perhaps this won't hap-pen because some-thing will cause him to be delayed on his search for fire-wood.

When we make inferences, we reach con-clusions based on evid-ence & reason-ing. We figure things out by apply-ing our own know-ledge & experience to the situa-tion at hand. Help-ing students under-stand when inform-ation is implied, or not direct-ly stated, will improve the-ir skill in draw-ing conclusions.

It is ironic that even after 70 years of independence women have to walk miles together in some parts of the country in order to fetch water. not only is water scarce, in many places it is contaminated too. write an article on the scarcity of clean drinking water in the country. also suggest measures to solve problem. you are /reena.

Answers

Article Subject- Women's struggle to get pure and uncontaminated water.

Hello readers,

I am Reena and I am here to protest against the cruel decision and fact that women always have to walk hundreds and hundreds of miles to get water for their family.

Why does this world have discrimination against woman's hardwork. No one cares or remembers about how they toil day and night for their family. Yet though, they are not given the respect of even a grass.

Why? Why is this world against us, women? We are making breakfast, lunch and dinner, and some of you are simply sitting and blaming us. Can't the ones who blame us do our work with us? We aren't getting a second hand to help us.

All of you know that there happened a, so called thing, called Independence Day. What Independence? Did the violence against women stop even after Subhash Chandra Bose, Mahatma Gandhi etc. free us from the Britishers. We feel that it was better if there was no Independence.

I regret this to say but, this selfish people do not deserve Independence. Do they know that about 200,000 Indians die every year due to inadequate access to safe water, and 600 million face high to extreme water stress, the government think tank Niti Aayog said last month? We go early in the morning, walk miles and water for you, but this society complains us why we bought tthe water late. They can't bring water, we should bring it, and they scold us. We are neglected and positioned as slaves. This should change.

Therefore, I hope that the position of women should change. I believe that since Mahatma Gandhi provided us Independence, please give us women also Independence.

Thank You...

Read the excerpt from “The Caged Bird.”

But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.

What is the figurative meaning of the excerpt?

The bird’s cage has been placed so that it overlooks a cemetery.
The bird’s cage is so small that it cramps his wings and feet.
The caged bird has had his hope destroyed.
The caged bird is thinking very serious thoughts.

Answers

The answer to this question is C
Answer: The caged bird has had his hope destroyed

The easiest way to answer this question is to think logically not poetically. Let’s be real here, the first two and last options don’t even sound figurative so it’s obviously the third option “c”.

If do want a real answer from me, “a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams” pretty much sums up the fact that the birds dreams were shattered and his hope was destroyed. His wings were also clipped and feet were tied meaning that he lost his freedom and hope because he couldn’t fly.

Anyways I hope this helps :)
