Answers

Answer 1

I pick, "I Wish I Could Remember" by Christina Rossetti

Since I spent a lot of my time on this, don't be afraid to give me a "Thanks" and perhaps a "Brainliest" if it helps!

Title: I think the poem is about Rossetti's memories of when she was a child. She might have wished to go back in time and relive those memories where this was no work, no school, and no trouble in life. Perhaps just a happy life where you are completely oblivious of horrible things such as death and disease.

Paraphrase:

I wish I could recall that first day

That first hour, that first moment of your meeting me

Whether bright or dim the season, it might be

Summer or Winter for aught I know

It slipped away so unrecorded

So blind was I to see and foresee

So dull to mark the budding of my tree

That would not blossom for many a May.

If only I could remember it, such

Such a day of days, I let it pass by 

As if it were a thaw of bygone snow

It seemed to mean so little, yet it seemed to mean so much; 

If only I could recall that touch, 

That first touch of hand in hand – Did one but know!

Connotation: The poem's figurative meaning is the poet wishes to recall the day she first met the man she would later fall in love with. She then shifts to the season in which that first meeting took place. She has no idea whether the season was pleasant or not. It can be implied that the author misses the day she first met the man she would fall in love with. She misses him dearly and would do many things to get the man back. I know this because of the figurative details the author puts into her poem. For example, "That first hour, that first moment of your meeting me". As well as, "Whether bright or dim the season, it might be summer or Winter for aught I know. It slipped away so unrecorded"

Attitude: The tone of the story is discouraged. A very busy mind is at work. Some words in the poem that highlight this mood are, "slipped away", "bygone snow", "recall" and "if only".

Shifts: Changes in the poem include, "That first touch of hand in hand – Did one but know!" This sentence walks us through the narrator's eyes and pictures the first day rather than the rest of the story which is trying to recall the first day.

Title: After I have read the poem, the title means hoping to remember a time where the narrator met a man that she would fall in love with.

Theme: A phrase that describes the message is, "It seemed to mean so little, yet it seemed to mean so much;". This sentence can grab the reader and let them know that every moment you have to spend with someone no matter how little it may seem, it may really mean the world one day.

the questions (1-5) should be answered in full sentences

here's the reading extract for context:

Ebraime stared up the slope into the gathering mist. Tongues and tracers of cloud raced past the shattered base of the cliffs; below him the mountain fell sharply away, golden in the light of the setting sun. He had never climbed so high before, and he was scared. He had never lost a sheep before. That scared him too.

He crouched against the mountainside, afraid to look back. Against the rising noise of the wind he heard the bleating of the ewe once more. It came from his right, it seemed. Cautiously he crept, hand and foot, up the loose, stony slope. The fierce wind was growing colder, biting through his thin khaki shirt. He glanced back. Behind him the golden light died with the sunset as he reached the base of the broken cliffs.

Zebasberg is a fierce mountain. Ebraime stared up at the soaring, cold grey rocks and trembled. He crept carefully around and between the huge boulders that littered the base of the peak, following the faint bleat of the sheep. The light was dim and dying when at last he found the ewe. She lay in a hollow between two slabs, a small corner of shelter from the rising storm. Gratefully he slipped down beside her. 'Quiet now, quiet now, he whispered gently. The ewe gazed at him with empty eyes and nuzzled closer. Outside the hollow, the wind howled and the world went black..
Ebraime nestled against the warmth of the ewe and looked out at the invisible night. I didn't lose her, he thought proudly. Tomorrow it will be light again and I can lead her down to the farm. Mr Lamprechts will be well pleased with me. He will see that I work well when I bring back this sheep. Ebraime huddled against the warm sheep in the sheltered hollow and was soon asleep.

In the hollow high up against Zebasberg, the ewe raised her head. She sniffed the air and gave a loud bleat. Ebraime woke at once. Where am I? Ebraime thought, clutching the ewe. She struggled and suddenly called again. He held her tight around the middle, peering into the darkness.

What's wrong? he thought. "Be still, be still,' he whispered to the ewe. She tried to lunge to her feet. 'Still, still,' he tried to calm her, when sud denly he became aware of the smell. A terrible rank pungent smell, some thing new in the hollow, something close at hand. "Go away!' he shout ed, terrified.

The ewe lunged without warning and a hot gust of foul breath came out of the dark. Something unseen and awful struck Ebraime full in the face. The ewe screamed, a long des perate bleat, and tore loose from his grip. Another awful searing blow ripped across his face and neck.

He reeled back and screamed from fear and the terrible pain of the blow. The unseen shape knocked him carelessly aside and with a throaty roar leaped away out of the hollow. He felt himself sinking into darkness and he tried to cry out again. Far away, he heard the last bleat as the beast took the ewe. The terrible pain shrank away as he slipped into unconsciousness.

There was no one at the cottage. In the kitchen he found a half-loaf of bread. He wolfed the bread and sank exhausted into a chair facing the open door.

He didn't hear the girl's approach. He was roused by the cautious knock and the soft call 'Ouma Sanna?' He stumbled to his feet. The girl was sil houetted against the bright sunshine outside the door. Ebraime stood up and tried to speak. He had hardly realised that no sound would come when the girl screamed, a scream that echoed shrilly around the room and out across the farmyard. Ebraime stood rooted in the doorway. The girl's screams bewildered and frightened him. What was wrong? Why had the girl screamed like that? He looked back into the cottage. Something moved on his left and he started violently. The light was slanting across Ouma Sanna's only picture, a hand-coloured photograph of herself as a young woman, hand in hand with a young man. Ebraime turned towards the movement and realised that it was his own reflection that had moved. His face was reflected in the dusty glass.

Two eyes stared wildly at him from a face raked with raw, bloody stripes, puffed and wounded and horrible. Suddenly he understood. My face, he shouted to himself. It's my face!​​

B."At the stern of the boat he found a room with a door partially ajar. Laurence came upon a narrow ladder leading up into darkness near the stern of the the ship."

C."He felt what seemed to be stacks of small, light and very hard squares of wood. Laurence put the square into his mouth and tried to bite into it."

D."After a full hour he found one whose lid was open a crack --- hardly wide enough for the his fingers. Bit by bit, the bread softened, until at last he was able to break off a piece."

Answers

Hi. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly like yours that showed the text "Laurence in the hold." If that's the case for you, I hope the answer below will help you.

Answer:

C."He felt what seemed to be stacks of small, light and very hard squares of wood. Laurence put the square into his mouth and tried to bite into it."  

D."After a full hour he found one whose lid was open a crack --- hardly wide enough for the his fingers. Bit by bit, the bread softened, until at last he was able to break off a piece."

Explanation:

"Laurence in the Hold" features a boy named Lawrence, who was, for some reason, hiding on a ship that was already on the high seas, meaning Lawrence couldn't get off the ship until that ship stopped somewhere. Lawrence was in hiding, no one could know he was there, but he was very hungry and needed to eat to survive. He knew that he would not receive food as a passenger or a crew member and for that reason, he persisted in looking around the ship for something he could eat. The two excerpts presented above show this persistence of Lawrence in satisfying his hunger.

A. Edna will not be able to find Mademoiselle Reisz despite her best efforts.

B. Edna will change her mind about finding Mademoiselle Reisz due to fatigue.

C. Mademoiselle Reisz will tell Edna to embrace her duties as a wife and mother.

D. Mademoiselle Reisz will play a key role in Edna's transformation of self.

Answers

Answer: Mademoiselle Reisz will play a key role in Edna's transformation of self

Explanation:

The prediction is most likely based on the events that have emerged so far in The Awakening is that Mademoiselle Reisz will play a key role in Edna's transformation of self.

Since the despondent frame of mind which she had when leaving home began to overtake her, and she remembered that she wished to find Mademoiselle Reisz, then it can be deduced that Mademoiselle Reisz still has an important role on how Edna will transform herself.

What is theme ?

A theme in modern literary studies is the main subject, idea, or message that runs through a story. Themes may be broken down into two categories: a work's thematic notion and thematic statement. A work's thematic concept is what viewers "think the work is about." The distinction between premises and themes is common.

The most prevalent modern definition of a theme is a concept or point that is essential to a narrative and is frequently encapsulated in a single word (for instance, love, death, or treachery). These themes typically include conflicts between the individual and society, adolescence, people and technology, nostalgia, and the perils of unbridled ambition.

There may be multiple themes in a tale. Themes frequently examine historically widespread or universally recognisable concepts, such ethical issues, and are typically suggested rather than expressed outright.[5] A theme in Aldous Huxley's Brave New World is whether one should live a life that appears better at the cost of sacrificing some of one's humanity. Theme is regarded as one of the elements of fiction, along with story, character, location, and style.

The ants were working hard leaving their laziness, as they have their own philosophy – ‘Never borrow, never lend.’ Do you appreciate the philosophy of the ants? Why/ why not. Justify​

Answers

Answer:

Yes, I appreciate the philosophy of the ants. (Find reasons below)

Explanation:

The ants are hardworking insects that bring in their food when the weather is just right, provide food for their queen, and build the walls of their colonies. Given how tiny these insects are, they can be regarded as hardworking. The philosophy of the ants to 'never borrow and never lend' is one that keeps them on their toes. This mentality promotes independence and serves as motivation for a person to never rely solely on others for help. That way, no one will be a liability to another.

Even though in real-life settings, things can become so difficult that we sometimes beg, still, this philosophy will ensure that begging never becomes a habit.

What is rising action?

Rising action is the section of a story that leads toward its climax. Because of the increased tension as a book's central conflict or conflicts)become clear, the rising action is often what keeps you turning the pages.

Not every book or movie plot works exactly the same way, but most of them start with some basic exposition that introduces the characters and setting, followed by rising action that pulls the reader or viewer toward the story's most emotional and interesting moment its climax. The rising action does a lot of the story's work, as it includes the most vital parts of the plot, making thrillers thrilling and page-turners engrossing.

The opposite of rising action is falling action, the phase of a story following the climax in which the main conflict is de-escalated and tension is further dispelled.

The transformation of one chemical element or isotope into another chemical element is known as a nuclear transmutation. Any process that modifies the number of protons or neutrons in an atom's nucleus is known as a nuclear transmutation.

There are two processes for transmutation. Fast neutron reactors are used in the first (conventional reactors are not very efficient), while hybrid reactors, such as the MYHRRA project, are used in the second.

The Magnum Opus program's four stages correspond to the four phases of alchemical and psychological metamorphosis. They are Rubedo, Nigredo, Albedo, and Citrinitas. These are known as confession, illumination, education, and transformation in terms of psychology, according to Jung.
