Answer 1

Answer:

Underwater

I was drowning.

Underwater.

Fighting for air,

fighting to swim.

Drowning, underwater.

Something held me down,

Something kept me from taking a breath.

Drowning, underwater.

I tried to float, but always sank.

I tried to breathe, but always choked.

Drowning, underwater.

I had no escape.

But you saved me.

You cut me loose.

Taught me how to swim,

taught me I could breathe.

Inhale, exhale.

Taught me I could smile,

taught me I could laugh.

You showed me kindness.

You showed me happiness.

When I found you,

I found me.

You gave me life,

you gave me purpose.

But you changed your mind.

Was I not enough?

not smart enough

not pretty enough

not skinny enough

not **** enough

not happy enough?

Was I too much?

Did I ask too much?

Did I care too much?

Did I love too much?

Did I need too much?

Did I hurt you?

Did I scare you?

Why were you so ******* afraid

Afraid of change

afraid of unknowns

afraid to let me in

afraid to feel what we felt

afraid of distance

afraid of trying

afraid to love me

afraid to let me love you

afraid of the future

afraid of us

afraid of this happiness

afraid it wouldn't last

But I needed you.

Now I'm drowning.

Underwater.

Fighting for air,

fighting to swim.

Drowning, underwater.

You're holding me down,

You're keeping me from taking a breath.

Drowning, underwater.

I'm trying to float, but I'm sinking.

I'm trying to breathe, but I'm choking.

Drowning, underwater.

There is no escape.

But I can't forget you.

Your words grab my ankles,

tying me to the ocean bottom.

I'm kicking and fighting,

but your touch paralyzes me.

I'm crying for help,

but your memory suffocates me.

No one sees me,

no one hears me,

no one saves me.

You don't save me.

Drowning,

Underwater.

In "The Yellow Wallpaper," Charlotte Perkins Gilman's choice of narrator and story
structure creates mystery in the story. Explain how the narrator and structure result
in mystery and eventually surprise in the text. Be sure to provide an introduction
paragraph that lays out your argument, body paragraphs that develop your thesis,
and a conclusion paragraph that wraps up your argument. (30 points)

Answers

1892: The Yellow Tapestry is the concealed diary of a woman compelled to undergo country rest therapy for a "nervous condition." It was PPD. They forbade her from writing and prescribed absolute inactivity. Beyond the hypnotic weaving of the faded yellow tapestry, the protagonist creates her own life. The Yellow Tapestry stands out for the strength of its witness to women's need for independence and self-empowerment.

The protagonist feels trapped by her life, her spouse, and everyone around her as she spends more and more time in the chamber her husband has provided her. Can't stop glancing at the wallpaper. She sees a woman behind bars trying to escape from her.

As the only protagonist, the reader only knows the narrator from her diary entries. The story's message is confined within the narrator's thoughts, not her spouse or his sister.

The woman exposes more about herself and her environment. He rejects any concerns or ideas that she may have, claiming that he knows more about what is convenient for her as a doctor, and calling her names given to a girl.

Even though the story is short, it is full of vivid imagery. There's a panicky feeling in the air and a want to get out of that horrible yellow tapestry. When she loses herself in the patterns, she believes there is someone beyond the tapestry mocking her from a similar jail. You're paralyzed by the end. With a sad tone, you sympathize with the protagonist. This is a horror story. In the end, the reader must decide if the words on the yellow paper are metaphorical or real. Similarly, did the heroine go insane, or was it all in her head?

Read the passage from chapter 7 of Animal Farm.
As Clover looked down the hillside her eyes filled with tears. If she could have spoken her thoughts, it would have been to say that this was not what they had aimed at when they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race. These scenes of terror and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to on that night when old Major first stirred them to rebellion. If she herself had had any picture of the future, it had been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity, the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of Major's speech. Instead—she did not know why—they had come to a time when no one dared speak his mind, when fierce, growling dogs roamed everywhere, and when you had to watch your comrades torn to pieces after confessing to shocking crimes. There was no thought of rebellion or disobedience in her mind. She knew that, even as things were, they were far better off than they had been in the days of Jones, and that before all else it was needful to prevent the return of the human beings. Whatever happened she would remain faithful, work hard, carry out the orders that were given to her, and accept the leadership of Napoleon. But still, it was not for this that she and all the other animals had hoped and toiled. It was not for this that they had built the windmill and faced the bullets of Jones's gun. Such were her thoughts, though she lacked the words to express them.
 
Which statement best describes the use of satire in this passage?
Parody is used to illustrate the impact of Stalin’s purge.
Ridicule is used to show the gullibility of the Russian citizens.
Personification is used to show the reader Stalin’s thoughts and feelings.

Answers

Answer:

Ridicule is used to show the gullibility of the Russian citizens.

Explanation:

It is not "personification is used to show the reader Stalin's thoughts and feelings" because the thoughts are Clover's, who, in this allegory does not represent Stalin.

It is not "parody is used to illustrate the impact of Stalin's purge, because the question asks for the use of "satire". The definition of satire is the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's [lack of intelligence] or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues. Thus, even though Animal Farm is an allegory to the Russian situation and this paragraph refers to Stalin's purge, satire is not used to support this allegory (or, not by parody at least).

Excellent. Thus it must be "ridicule is used to show the gullibility of the Russian citizens". This is the correct answer. Recall the definition of satire: it includes the words "ridicule" and "criticize people's [lack of intelligence]". This fits perfectly with the author using ridicule to show the gullibility, or one representation of a lack of intelligence, with the Russian citizens.

Did Katniss performance for the gamemakers hurt her or help her?

Answers

hurt cus they didn’t like her after that

Katniss' performances for the Gamemakers harmed her since they disliked her.

What does Katniss do with the rest of her day?

Katniss spends the remainder of the day on her bed, weeping. She worries the Gamemakers will penalize her for all she's done by turning her into an Avox and removing her tongue. She imagines every potential possibility, but her greatest dread is that the Capitol would go after Prim or her mother. She isn't nearly as concerned with herself as she is with others.

Katniss arrives for supper, and Haymitch finally inquires about how the personal training sessions were. Peeta responds that he doesn't believe the Gamemakers were paying close attention to him, as he simply flung around just few heavy things and was told he could leave. Everyone is surprised when Katniss tells them she shot one arrow at them.

They're curious about what the Gamemakers said and how they reacted.

Analyze Hamlet’s character (based solely upon what you see here). What is he worried about and/or what does he seem like? Explain, using lines from the text. One paragraph

Answers

Answer:

What Hamlet is contemplating in his most famous soliloquy (To be or not to be) is the nature of life and what he should do with it. He is thinking about whether he should end it all (kill himself) or continue living and fighting for his revenge. His father was killed by his own brother and he wants to avenge the king's death but he is unsure how to do it.

Explanation:

He is torn between these two decisions, leading him to be stuck and ultimately do nothing for a while because he is indecisive. On one hand, he can go after Claudius who murderer his father, but on the other hand, he understands that that is meaningless and it won't bring him anything. However, in the end, he finally makes a decision - to go through with his plan.

What is sentence?

A sentence exists as the fundamental unit of language which represents a complete thought. It does this by observing the grammatical basic regulations of syntax. For example: "Ali exists walking". A complete sentence includes at least a subject and a primary verb to state (declare) a whole thought.

There exist four kinds of sentences: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. Each sentence exists characterized by the usage of independent and dependent clauses, conjunctions, and subordination.

Natural numbers exist as symbols or units that are parts of a calculating and counting system. A number even stands for a function or amount in a series. The number is separate from numerals. A numeral stands as a representation of a number.

C. Studies have shown that safe riding practices are actually more

D. Parents should also be charged with endangerment if they allow
their child to become dangerously overweight.

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Bicycle helmets are so important in protecting children

from injury that parents who do not enforce their use

should be guilty of endangering their children.

Which of these would provide the strongest counterclaim?

A. Parents can hardly be held responsible for the way their children

behave when they're not around

B helps the claim not the counter claim, C does not refer to parents's responsibility  at all, D adds more responsibilities

The strongest counterclaim would be "Studies have shown that safe riding practices are actually more effective in preventing injury than bicycle helmets." Therefore, the correct option is C.

What is counterclaim?

An argument that responds to another claim by offering a different point of view or opposing point of view is called a counterclaim. It is an assertion or assertion that disputes or refutes an initial claim or thesis. Counterclaims are often used to anticipate and respond to potential objections or counterarguments in persuasive writing and discussion.

The counterexample provided contradicts the claim that bicycle helmets are important for preventing injuries. The notion that parents who don't mandate helmet-wearing are putting their children at risk has been countered if research indicates that safer riding practices are more successful.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
