"Silver trucks heavy with oil or paper–
bricks or milk, teeming over highways alongside us,
on our way to clean tables, read ledgers, or save lives–
to teach geometry, or ring-up groceries as my mother did
for twenty years, so I could write this poem for all of us today. "


The last lines of the second stanza creates a sense of unity by referencing

A the shared experience of listening to loud noises
B the shared experience of the American workforce
C the shared experience of teaching and learning
D the shared need to move and travel

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Based on the stanza (which I believe is the entire paragraph displayed above the question), we can immediately disqualify A. as a choice, as there is not a lot of references to "listening to loud noises".  We can also eliminate D. as there is no mention of a shared need to move and travel. This leaves us with two options: B and C. From here, I think both could work, but what led me to believe that B is the correct option is because there is always some sort of work that is being talked about in the paragraph. "clean tables, read ledgers, or save lives-to teach geometry, or ring up groceries as my mother did". I believe the line I just quoted really demonstrates how B is the right answer. Please let me know if I misunderstood and I hope I helped!

Explanation:

Hi. Your question was presented in a very confusing way. This makes it difficult for it to be answered. However, when reading the speech "A Time for Choosing," we can see that Reagan used the context clue called "explanation," to allow listeners to understand the meaning of the word "beholden."

Context clue is a literary device used to allow the reader of a text or the listener of a speech to understand the meaning of unknown words, through the context of the sentence where they are placed. One type of context clue is called "explanation" and this type occurs when the meaning of the unknown word is entered right after that word. An example of this can be seen in "A Time for Choosing," when Reagan speaks:

"And this idea that government is beholden to the people, that it has no other source of power except to sovereign people, is still the newest and most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man."

How does Powell's use of "I" and "you" support his point in the first half of the speech?

Answers

Answer:

Using Colin Powell's 2003 pre-war speech to the UN as a case study, this essay illustrates ways in which discourse analytic methods can serve investigations of constitutive rhetoric. Prior to the speech, Powell's reluctance to go to war and his skepticism of the need for military action in Iraq was well known. His conversion to the administration's position was key to the persuasiveness of the speech. Thus, within the speech he needed to reconstitute his ethos from doubter to advocate. The analysis focuses on how specific linguistic qualities such as modality, positioning, narrative, and evaluation assist Powell in doing so. These discourse analytic tools reveal ways in which discrete linguistic moves contribute to the constitutive work of ethos formation and re-formation.

Answer:

It makes it personal and calls for action

Directions: As explained earlier in this chapter, an inference is something a reader learns from a text through information that was never directly given, stated, or explained by the author. Review the information about inferences and the story if necessary, and then answer the question below.


1.

Remember that an inference is information given in a story that is not directly stated by the author, but it is still very important in order to understand a story. Place a checkmark next to each inference the reader needed to make in order to understand "The Cask of Amontillado":


Montresor and Fortunato are wearing costumes because it is carnival time.


One reason Montresor is wearing a costume is to be sure no one recognizes him when he is walking back to his house with Fortunato.


Fortunato was a competitive person because he got jealous when he thought Luchesi was going to taste the Amontillado.


Montresor leads Fortunato down into the catacombs where many people were buried.


Montresor and Fortunato were down in the catacombs until midnight.


Montresor was upset because Fortunato had seriously offended him and wanted revenge.


No one ever found Fortunato, who Montresor buried alive down in the catacombs.


Montresor kept giving Fortunato wine because he knew he could not resist it and wanted Fortunato to keep following him.

What’s the difference between indefinite pronoun and indefinite adjective? Explain

with at least 3 examples of each.

Answers

Answer:

Indefinite adjectives give nonspecific information about a noun. For example, the indefinite article few indicates some, but not an exact amount. Indefinite adjectives are easily confused with indefinite pronouns since they are the same words used differently. An indefinite pronoun replaces a noun. An indefinite adjective precedes a noun or pronoun and modifies it. It is important for you to understand the difference between indefinite adjectives and pronouns to assure you are saying what you mean. Some common indefinite adjectives include all, any, anything, each, every, few, many, one, several, some, somebody, and someone.

Example

ExampleIndefinite adjective: We are having some cake for dessert.

ExampleIndefinite adjective: We are having some cake for dessert.Indefinite pronoun: I like cake. I’ll have some, please.

ExampleIndefinite adjective: We are having some cake for dessert.Indefinite pronoun: I like cake. I’ll have some, please.Indefinite adjective: You can find a state name on each quarter.

Which two sentences contribute to a sense a of hope in this excerpt from "The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin?
She wept at once, with sudden. wild abandonment, in her sister's arms. When the storm of grief had spent itself she went away to her
room alone. She would have no one follow her.
There stood, facing the open window, a comfortable, roomy armchair. Into this she sank, pressed down by a physical exhaustion that
haunted her body and seemed to reach into her soul.
She could see in the open square before her house the tops of trees that were all aquiver with the new spring life. The delicious breath of
rain was in the air. In the street below peddler was crying his wares. The notes of a distant song which someone was singing reached
her faintly, and countless sparrows were twittering in the eaves.
There were patches of blue sky showing here and there through the clouds that had met and piled one above the other in the west facing
her window.
She sat with her head thrown back upon the cushion of the chair, quite motionless, except when a sob came up into her throat and shook
a her, as a child who has cried itself to sleep continues to sob in its dreams.

Answers

Answer:

She could see in the open square before her house the tops of trees that were all aquiver with the new spring life. The delicious breath of  rain was in the air. In the street below peddler was crying his wares. The notes of a distant song which someone was singing reached  her faintly, and countless sparrows were twittering in the eaves.

Explanation:

Kate Chopin's short story "The Story of an Hour" is about the character of Mrs. Mallard and how she develops as a woman, depicted through the news of her husband's death. The short story deals with themes of gender, freedom, repression, identity, self-discovery, etc.

When Mrs. Mallard heard of the news of her husband's death, she did not react like a normal woman whose husband had just died would have reacted. Rather, she went into another room and stayed there, thinking of the freedom she's just been given. The narrator uses the words "open", "new spring of life", "delicious breath of rain", etc. which all exude a positive attitude rather than the expected gloomy reaction or observation for someone who's just lost a loved one.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

in what way do you think overseas commitment " influence the rise and fall of nations in Europe​

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

The way I think overseas commitment influenced the rise and fall of nations in Europe is the following.

Powerful European nations started to navigate the oceans since the so-called Age of Exploration. Prince Henry of Portugal was one of the first to build a powerful navy to explore and conquer in the name of his nation. Other European monarchies followed through, as was the case of Spain, France, and Great Britain.

They got inspiration from the "Three Gs" that are often used to summarize the motivation for European exploration are Gold, God, and Glory.

The age of exploration had European nations more power due to the discovery of new territories and the colonization of those territories. They discovered new lands where raw materials and natural resources abounded. So the three "G's" that motivated that explorations were Gold, the monarchy knew that many territories had plenty of gold and the crowns wanted that god to increase their wealthiness. God, they tough that they had to evangelize the natives Indians of that far lands to make them Christians. Ang Glory, to get supremacy over other European nations that were also competing for new territories.
