I stood silently, my head hanging in fear and shame,
"failure!" my teacher said.
I remember this,though I don't remember her name!
I sat confused as mother told me
"Stop chasing rainbows.Will you?"
But she handed me rainbows- Black and white.
'Shouldn't those be coloured too?'
When did it become not okay
To tell the vibgyor for real.
When did it become not okay
to count the stars, to chase a wheel?
Not okay to paint my thoughts,
You loved them once, so what went wrong?
My rhymes once filled you with pride,
So why a nuisance are my songs?
74 years of independence, yet imagination isn't free?
Why shackle my love for learning?
Why smother my curiosity?
The world is bursting with things to teach me.
And yet you want my blinkers on?
Books are paths, not boundaries,
They are windows to the world beyond.
So, please let the paper plane fly,
Perhaps someday, I'll fly too!
Please let the toys break and mend,
I'll build better toys for you.
Please lemme bruise a little,
Those bruises someday I'll heal.
Please lemme dream a little,
Those dreams, one day, will be real.
So give me today a different freedom,
That of the mind, not mindless cheer.
Wave the flags of liberation
For the freedom to learn without fear.
The fact that electronic computers are now used for data processing has led the general
public to believe that it is a mysterious, complicated science and that the computers are
giant brains. Both of these ideas are false. A computer is basically just a high-speed adding
machine that performs the functions it is told to. If the input data are varied even a little,
the computer is unable to operate until it is programmed to accept the variations. The
business operations it performs are impressive only because of the extremely high speed of
manipulation, but most of these operations have been used for decades. Unlike man, the
computer performs repetitive calculations without getting tired or bored.

C.

D.

plz help i'll choose brainliest
Answer:
D. by explicitly listing other ways of raising money
Explanation:
plato folks
Tricia could strengthen her refutation by explicitly listing other ways to raise money, as shown in option D.
We can arrive at this answer because:
A refutation is an argument that is contrary to another argument that was presented earlier.In this case, the refutation shows that the previous argument is incorrect, or does not present relevant information.For a refutation to be effective, the evidence must be presented that the information in the refutation is correct.In this case, we can affirm that Tricia's refutation would be more efficient and stronger if there was evidence to prove her argument.
This evidence could be presented if she explicitly listed how the city could raise money.

Colin has £25. Dan takes £yy. How much is left?
Answer:
why does dan take colins money
Explanation:
The amount of money that is left is £25 - £y when Colin has £25 and Dan takes £y.
What is the Subtraction operation?Subtraction is a mathematical operation that deducts the right-hand operand from the left-hand operand.
for example 4 -2 = 2
We have been given that Colin has £25. Dan takes £y
We have to determine the amount of money that is left
As per the given question, the required solution would be as:
If Colin has £25 and Dan takes £y, the amount of money that is left is £25 - £y.
This is because £25 is the original amount of money that Colin has, and £y is the amount that is taken away. When you subtract £y from £25, you are left with the remaining amount of money.
For example, if Dan takes £10, the amount of money that is left is £25 - £10 = £15. If Dan takes £5, the amount of money that is left is £25 - £5 = £20. And so on.

Explanation:
Which lines from "Mending Wall" best indicate that the speaker is amused while repairing the wall? We wear our fingers rough with handling them. Oh, just another kind of out-door game, No one has seen them made or heard them made, But at spring mending-time we find them there. And he likes having thought of it so well He says again, “Good fences make good neighbours.” We have to use a spell to make them balance: “Stay where you are until our backs are turned!”
Answer:
We have to use a spell to make them balance: "Stay where you are until our backs are turned!"
Explanation:
Robert Frost's poem "Mending Walls" presents a contradicting life of humanity, with the metaphor of two neighbors mending walls to stay connected and peaceful. This contradiction also refers to society as a whole, with the ironic act of coming together to mend the fence which makes them have a better bond.
The speaker narrates how he and his neighbor had to come together to get the fence mended. But despite the 'barricade' of the fence, it was this necessity of making boundaries that break boundaries. And his amusement can be seen in the lines "We have to use a spell to make them balance: 'Stay where you are until our backs are turned!'"
Answer:
D We have to use a spell to make them balance:
“Stay where you are until our backs are turned!”

Bananas ripe and green, and ginger root Cocoa in pods and alligator pears, And tangerines and mangoes and grape fruit, Fit for the highest prize at parish fairs, Sat in the window, bringing memories of fruit-trees laden by low-singing rills, And dewy dawns, and mystical skies In benediction over nun-like hills. My eyes grow dim, and I could no more gaze; A wave of longing through my body swept, And, hungry for the old, familiar ways I turned aside and bowed my head and wept. The first three lines of the poem mention fruits grown in the tropics. Where exactly does the poet find himself? a)at a church fair b)in the west indies c)in a dream d)on a city street e)on a farm
Answer:
b)in the west indies
Explanation:
West Indies is another name for the Caribbeans. The author of this poem, "The Tropics of New York" is Claude McKay. He was born in Jamaica and was often known for writing about his homeland. The tropics are known to accommodate the rain forests. Tall trees can also be seen growing in these territories.
So, trees like bananas, cocoa, pears, tangerines, and mangoes are mostly grown in the tropics. This fits the description given by the poet. He likely recalled his homeland, which made him weep.
