Why does the author use the following simile: "She rests on the crib—/ pink and soft, / like a cake in the oven"?
Answer: the swan might be a metaphor for our soul, which is ancient and timeless. the speaker wants to know where it's going and what it wants, what's the purpose in life. he asks our soul to follow him in knowing that god is us and the answer to the question "who am i" that was written on the wind of god's whim to know himself that blew over his being in the beginning of creation. and to connect to god consciously on the path to knowing him is the joy of loving him, like a bee that will grow and end our sorrows by ending desire. in that connection there is no doubt about god and existing forever.
Hope this helps......... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!! :D

Attack of the Dragons
Attack of the Dragons
If the Viking raids from the north and the Briton raids from the south weren’t bad enough, now we have a new challenge to our castle walls: dragons.
Here in Northumberland, summers are full of war. We are used to fighting in the summer. That’s when the lands to our north thaw enough for the Vikings to venture south to our lands hoping to steal our livestock and crops. Our walls, however, protect our farms. As the Norsemen try to come ashore, we fight them back with ease. Our arrows, bolts, and rock are more than enough to fend them off as they attempt to land on our beaches. They may not have what is ours, and soon they turn toward other coasts and other forts as ours are too strong for them.
Then come the Britons from the south. The Britons‘ claim to this land is admittedly greater than ours. They were here before the Romans and will probably outlast our Saxon rule, but that does not matter today. Today this land belongs to Ida the Saxon king, and we will hold it for him and his heirs. Their numbers cannot stand against our fortifications. Our steel is superior to theirs, as our swords and spears cut through their armor with ease. We have the higher ground, for Bamburg stands on a dolerite outcrop. Not only do we use the rock as our foundation, we have cut into the earth and used it to build our walls, and we launch our rocks toward our enemy as they attempt to storm the hill. With these rocks and our arrows and bolts, we cut half their army down before they even reach our battlements. Their spirit weakens as their forces are cut down, as we easily strike down those foolish enough not to break ranks and run. No man can defeat us once we lock ourselves behind these walls. We have plenty of land and cattle here. We can outlast any siege. Thanks to Lord Ida of Bernecia, we are protected.
Lord Ida had us build this stronghold high above the shore, and we are invincible from attacks by land and sea, but now we must deal with airborne enemies as well.
The dragons have come out of the East somewhere and bring with them fire. They attack when the sun is high. They know our bows and crossbows are worthless against them, as our arrows and bolts bounce off their thick hide. They swoop down and take our sheep in their claws and maws, returning to whereever they came from before dusk with a fifth of our provisions. The fire drives our bravest men inside as we cower with the women and children, hoping to avoid the death that the dragons bring.
Aston, the ironsmith, and his fisherman brother, Aethel, claim to have a solution. They have combined their tools and designed a contraption that might bring the winged monsters out of the sky. Fishing nets with iron barbs launched from paired ballistae. The ballista is a giant crossbow left from the Roman invasions. The contraptions take three men to crank, and aiming the ballistae pairs has proven difficult, but we hope to fight when they return tomorrow.
Nets are weighted down with iron spikes. As we launch the projectiles at the dragons, we hope to drop them into the sea, or at least pin them to the ground where our swords and spears can do harm. Aethel believes that dragons falling into the water will surely drown, and Aston believes that we should attack the wings of the grounded dragons so that they cannot escape our mighty warriors. But that lesson is for tomorrow when the dragons return at high noon. Tonight we plan our attack and hope our weapons prove their design.
Based on the information found in the passage, which invaders attack the Saxons by land?
A
the Vikings
B
the dragons
C
the Britons
D
the Romans

1. What is a code of ethics? Describe two types of ethical behavior that might be included in a journalist’s code of ethics.
2. Why are ethics important in journalism?
3. What is a conflict of interest? Why would this be a problem for a journalist?
4. Why is it important that journalists stay objective?
5. Why is freedom of the press important?
Answer:
Ethical journalism should be accurate and fair. Journalists should be honest and courageous in gathering, reporting and interpreting information.
Journalists should:
– Take responsibility for the accuracy of their work. Verify information before releasing it. Use original sources whenever possible.
– Remember that neither speed nor format excuses inaccuracy.
– Provide context. Take special care not to misrepresent or oversimplify in promoting, previewing or summarizing a story.
– Gather, update and correct information throughout the life of a news story.
– Be cautious when making promises, but keep the promises they make.
– Identify sources clearly. The public is entitled to as much information as possible to judge the reliability and motivations of sources.
– Consider sources’ motives before promising anonymity. Reserve anonymity for sources who may face danger, retribution or other harm, and have information that cannot be obtained elsewhere. Explain why anonymity was granted.
– Diligently seek subjects of news coverage to allow them to respond to criticism or allegations of wrongdoing.
– Avoid undercover or other surreptitious methods of gathering information unless traditional, open methods will not yield information vital to the public.
– Be vigilant and courageous about holding those with power accountable. Give voice to the voiceless.
– Support the open and civil exchange of views, even views they find repugnant.
– Recognize a special obligation to serve as watchdogs over public affairs and government. Seek to ensure that the public’s business is conducted in the open, and that public records are open to all.
– Provide access to source material when it is relevant and appropriate.
– Boldly tell the story of the diversity and magnitude of the human experience. Seek sources whose voices we seldom hear.
– Avoid stereotyping. Journalists should examine the ways their values and experiences may shape their reporting.
– Label advocacy and commentary.
– Never deliberately distort facts or context, including visual information. Clearly label illustrations and re-enactments.
– Never plagiarize. Always attribute.
Minimize Harm
Ethical journalism treats sources, subjects, colleagues and members of the public as human beings deserving of respect.
Journalists should:
– Balance the public’s need for information against potential harm or discomfort. Pursuit of the news is not a license for arrogance or undue intrusiveness.
– Show compassion for those who may be affected by news coverage. Use heightened sensitivity when dealing with juveniles, victims of sex crimes, and sources or subjects who are inexperienced or unable to give consent. Consider cultural differences in approach and treatment.
– Recognize that legal access to information differs from an ethical justification to publish or broadcast.
– Realize that private people have a greater right to control information about themselves than public figures and others who seek power, influence or attention. Weigh the consequences of publishing or broadcasting personal information.
– Avoid pandering to lurid curiosity, even if others do.
– Balance a suspect’s right to a fair trial with the public’s right to know. Consider the implications of identifying criminal suspects before they face legal charges.
– Consider the long-term implications of the extended reach and permanence of publication. Provide updated and more complete information as appropriate.
Act Independently
The highest and primary obligation of ethical journalism is to serve the public.

Does the word “common” have a negative or positive connotation?
I NEED THE ANSWER FAST PLZZZ
Answer:
It should be positive.
If something has a positive connotation, it will evoke warm feelings. Meanwhile, something with a negative connotation will make someone feel less than pleasant.
Explanation: sorry if wrong
Answer:
It is a mutual connotation, because whether it is positive or negative depends on the situation.
Explanation:
The word "common" means that a lot of people have or are something. It depends on what exactly is common.
For example, in the fact, "It is more common for women to have cancer rather than men," this is a negative connotation, because the disease cancer is not a good thing.
However, in the example of a teacher saying, "In my class, it is common for my students to receive B's or higher on their report cards," this is a positive connotation because receiving B's or higher is a good thing.
Therefore, the answer is a mutual connotation.

In "The Adventures of Theseus," Theseus has a choice: He can take the easier and safer route to Athens by sea, or he can take the more dangerous land route. Theseus decides to travel to Athens by land. How does Theseus's decision help develop the plot?
Hello. You forgot the answer options. The options are:
It illustrates the theme.
It builds suspense.
It describes the climax.
It resolves the conflict.
Answer:
It builds suspense.
Explanation:
When Theseus chooses the most dangerous route to reach Athens, the story takes on a strong suspense tone. This is because the reader understands that Theseus will encounter these problems, which will be very difficult to solve and which can even end it. However, the reader does not know when these problems will appear, nor even what these problems are, which makes suspense a crucial element for the continuation of reading, allowing the reader to be anxious and apprehensive about what will happen in the narrative.
Answer:
It builds suspense
Explanation:
I say this because authors try to make stories interesting, exciting, crazy. This is also the answer because he eventually ends up at procrusties house. Its trying to build suspense for this.
Therefore your answer is it builds suspense

All of the following are strategies that can be used to figure out an "implied main idea" EXCEPT:
Marking brainliest
A. figuring out how well the author utilized parallel structure
B. closely looking at the topic sentence
C. considering how the supporting details all connect
D. reflecting on the overall topic
Answer:
D. reflecting on the overall topic
Explanation:
The main idea is not always clearly stated. It is more difficult to identify the main idea when it is inferred or implied. It can be implied through other words in the paragraph. An implied main idea can be found in several ways.
1. Several sentences in a paragraph can imply the main idea by introducing facts about the topic before actually stating the topic.
2. Implied ideas can be drawn from facts, reasons, or examples that give hints or suggestions concerning the main idea. These hints will be clues leading you to discover the main idea in the selected text.
Try the passage below to see if you can pick out the main idea.

Read the passage. First identify the text structure used in the passage, and then explain how this structure helps develop the writer's central idea. Use evidence from the text in your response.
The rise in popularity of farmers' markets has caused many people to rethink their use of regular grocery stores. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Farmers' markets have fresh and local produce, and often you get a chance to meet the people who grow your food. This isn't the case with grocery stores, where you'll never get to meet the farmers. Grocery stores are starting to have more local products, though, and they have a better variety of goods. Another thing to consider is the setting itself. Farmers' markets are usually in more pleasant, open-air locations where there's often live music playing. Grocery stores, on the other hand, can be busy and uncomfortable if you don't like shopping. The pleasant atmosphere comes at a price, though, as your bill at a farmers' market is likely to be 25 percent more than at a grocery store. All in all, the freshness and quality of food is worth a little more money. Farmers' markets are the way to go. Thanks!! Best answer I promise brainliest

Read the passage.
What happened that night, how the skiff escaped from the Maelstrom's fearsome eddies, how Ned Land, Conseil, and I got out of that
whirlpool, I'm unable to say. But when I regained consciousness, I was lying in a fisherman's hut on one of the Lofoten Islands. My two companions,
safe and sound, were at my bedside clasping my hands. We embraced each other heartily.
Just now we can't even dream of returning to France. Travel between upper Norway and the south is limited. So I have to wait for the arrival
of a steamboat that provides bimonthly service from North Cape.
So it is here, among these gallant people who have taken us in that I'm reviewing my narrative of these adventures. It is accurate. Not a fact
has been omitted, not a detail has been exaggerated. It's the faithful record of this inconceivable expedition into an element now beyond human
reach, but where progress will someday make great inroads.
Will anyone believe me? I don't know. Ultimately it's unimportant. What I can now assert is that I've earned the right to speak of these seas,
beneath which in less than ten months. I've cleared 20.000 leagues in this underwater tour of the world that has shown me so many wonders
across the Pacific, the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Mediterranean, the Atlantic, the southernmost and northernmost seas!
(from Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne)
Which best explains where the passage belongs in the plot of the story?
1. as part of the exposition, which introduces the main characters, conflict and setting
2 as part of the rising action, which develops characters and intensifies the conflict
3. as part of the climax, which peaks reader emotion by placing the outcome of characters in doubt
04 as part of the falling action, which completes the action started by the dimax
Answer: answer is 4
