What is the theme?
I was climbing up a mountain-path
With many things to do,
Important business of my own,
And other people's too,
[5]
When I ran against a Prejudice
That quite cut off the view.
My work was such as could not wait,
My path quite clearly showed,
My strength and time were limited,
[10]
I carried quite a load;
And there that hulking Prejudice
Sat all across the road.
So I spoke to him politely,
For he was huge and high,
[15]
And begged that he would move a bit
And let me travel by.
He smiled, but as for moving! —
He didn't even try.
And then I reasoned quietly
[20]
With that colossal mule:
My time was short — no other path —
The mountain winds were cool.
I argued like a Solomon;
He sat there like a fool.
[25]
Then I flew into a passion,
and I danced and howled and swore.
I pelted and belabored him
Till I was stiff and sore;
He got as mad as I did —
[30]
But he sat there as before.
And then I begged him on my knees;
I might be kneeling still
If so I hoped to move that mass
Of obdurate ill-will —
[35]
As well invite the monument
To vacate Bunker Hill!
So I sat before him helpless,
In an ecstasy of woe —
The mountain mists were rising fast,
[40]
The sun was sinking slow —
When a sudden inspiration came,
As sudden winds do blow.
I took my hat, I took my stick,
My load I settled fair,
[45]
I approached that awful incubus
With an absent-minded air —
And I walked directly through him,
As if he wasn't there!

Answers

Answer:

While the newspaper report takes a distant view of the incident, the chapter from Shackleton's memoir is a personal account. The report is in third-person point of view, while the memoir chapter is in first person. Also, while the chapter is written by one of the crew members, the reporter’s name isn’t listed. The news account is more objective and impersonal.

The article’s writer is like a passive bystander. There is no emotional attachment or feelings toward the crew members. The chapter’s narrator is the leader of the crew, actively involved in the rescue mission.

Read the excerpt from Island of Hope, Island of Tears. Which statement best describes the text structure of this sentence and explains why it is used? If illness was suspected, immigrants were detained at Ellis Island's hospital complex. O A sequence text structure is used to describe the order of events at Ellis Island's hospital complex. © Acompare-and-contrast text structure is used to show the relationship between illness and treatment. O A sequence text structure is used to explain the order of events that occurred after an immigrant was detained. O A cause-and-effect text structure is used to explain why immigrants could be detained at the hospital complex​

Answers

Answer:

D). The cause is if the illness was suspected, and the effect is immigrants were detained.

Explanation:

The cause-and-effect structure is primarily used to denote the reasoning for a specific problem or issue and the effects brought by the causes.

The last statement i.e. 'the cause ... detained' aptly relates that the given excerpt from 'Island of Hope' employs the 'cause-and-effect' structure and explains it. In the given paragraph, the organization of the cause 'if the illness is suspected' followed by the effect 'detaining of immigrants' assists the readers to identify the probable consequences associated with the action and understand the idea clearly. Thus, option D is the correct answer.

Read the excerpt from chapter 10 of Animal Farm.

He did not believe, he said, that any of the old suspicions still lingered, but certain changes had been made recently in the routine of the farm which should have the effect of promoting confidence still further. Hitherto the animals on the farm had had a rather foolish custom of addressing one another as "Comrade." This was to be suppressed. There had also been a very strange custom, whose origin was unknown, of marching every Sunday morning past a boar's skull which was nailed to a post in the garden. This, too, would be suppressed, and the skull had already been buried. His visitors might have observed, too, the green flag which flew from the masthead. If so, they would perhaps have noted that the white hoof and horn with which it had previously been marked had now been removed. It would be a plain green flag from now onwards.

Which statement best describes how the passage illustrates a satirical reversal?

It shows how the original principles of Animal Farm have adapted naturally with the times.
It shows how the animals have decided together that their rebellion was misguided.
It shows how angry the animals have become with the way the farm is organized.
It shows how the original principles and rituals of Animal Farm have been completely suppressed.

Answers

Answer:

It shows how the original principles and rituals of Animal Farm have been completely suppressed.

Explanation:

It shows how the original principles of Animal Farm have adapted naturally with the times. - is not the right answer. We do not see the natural adaptation of principles in this passage.

It shows how the animals have decided together that their rebellion was misguided. - this is not the correct answer. There is no mention of a rebellion in the passage.

It shows how angry the animals have become with the way the farm is organized. - is not the correct answer. The passage does not refer to the anger of the animals.

It shows how the original principles and rituals of Animal Farm have been completely suppressed. - this is the correct answer. In the quotation, we see suppression of the customs of referring to each other as “Comrade” and marching by the boar’s skull. The section also mentions the flag will be changed - the one with hoof and horn will be replaced with the plain green one. With all of this, we can conclude that the passage talks about suppressions of the farm principles which is a satirical reversal – subverting the situation to the one opposite of normalcy as the reader sees it so the satire would be obvious.

First, in your introduction paragraph, write a powerful statement.I suggest you include statistic data. It is a powerful way to make your statement.For instance, the percentage of time teenagers watch TV daily.That would capture your readers' attention.Next, you follow up with the advantages of watching TV.Here you can enumerate the advantages when TV is used as part of your entertainment, to take some time off from your homework.When used correctly, a short period of time in front of the TV can be good to distress.Another advantage could be that educational TV programs help you to be informed and increase your knowledge. Always remember to watch TV for fun, not to get scared with sensationalist news or drama shows. Then, write about the disadvantages. Write about how most of TV's shoes aim to create fear, dependency, sensationalism, or violence.You also can refer to the fact that TV shows can be addictive for some audiences.Write something about how teenagers get lazy in front of the TV gain weight, instead of practicing a sport or doing outdoor recreation activities.Finally, state a good conclusion of your ideas.

We conclude that these are good ideas, following a logical structure, that can help you convey your message to your audience. Do not forget to write in a formal but clear language, so anybody can understand you.

"Is" is the verb of this sentence.  Though a subject of a clause is typically in front of the verb, this is an "inverted sentence," meaning that the subject comes after the verb.  If this sentence weren't to be inverted it would read, "The price of a movie (is,are) eight dollars these days."  The verb is describing the word "price" and because "price" is singular, it must have a singular verb meaning the correct verb usage is "is."
