from Sonnet 130

I have seen roses damasked, red and white,

But no such roses see i in [my mistress's] cheeks;

And in some perfumes is there more delight

Than in the breath that from her reeks.

I love to hear her speak, yet well i know

That music hath a far more pleasing sound;

I grant I never saw a goddess go;

My mistress, when she walks, treads upon the ground.

And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare

As any she belied with false compare

Read the excerpt from The Odyssey.

Now Zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships, and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
The bows went plunging at the gust; sails
cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
We saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore
worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third Dawn came with ringlets shining.

What is the setting of the story Thank You, ‘a’am?

Answers

Answer:

The setting of the story is at night, first on the street where Roger tries to steal Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones's purse and subsequently in her room in a boarding house where she feeds Roger, tells him about her life, and gives him money to buy the shoes he wants. Hope this helped!!

Explanation:

The story takes place in the middle of the night, first on the street where Roger tries to steal Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones' purse and then in her room in a boarding house where she feeds Roger, shares stories about her life with him, and offers him money to buy the shoes he wants.

What time is thank you ma'am in?

We may infer that this story is likely set in the 1950s based on several factors, including the fact that the story was published in 1958 and the topics that frequently appear in Langston Hughes' writing concern the lives of African Americans in segregated America.

The child turned at the empty stoop and looked back at the enormous woman in the door, but he was unable to say anything more to Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones except "Thank you, m'am."

Say "You're welcome, as always." This traditional response keeps things straightforward. For instance, you can simply respond, "You are very welcome," when a partner thanks you for preparing the contract.

Thus, The story takes place in the middle of the night, first on the street where Roger tries to steal .

Read these lines from the poem "The Black Snake" by Patricia Hubbell.

Black snake! Black snake!

Curving down the lawn,

Glides like a wave

With its silver gone.

What is the meaning of the imagery in these lines?

The snake is trying to find its way back to the ocean.

The snake moves as seamlessly and effortlessly as the ocean.

The snake is as elusive and unpredictable as catching a fish.

The snake is a creature of the water. PLEASE PLEASE ANSWER

Answers

Answer:

The snake moves as seamlessly and effortlessly as the ocean

Explanation:

To me, it seems as the most logical since the lines of the poem are explaining the snakes movements as 'waves' and tainting it with the words 'curving' and 'glides'.

The second statement: The snake moves as seamlessly and effortlessly as the ocean.

Reasoning

The simile, "Glides like a wave" is comparing the snake's movements to the graceful flows of ocean waves.

"Curving down the lawn" describes that the snake is on someone's lawn and there is no statement showing that it is making an effort to escape.

These lines invalidate the others and prove the answer.

Do people care about the Pandemic or Not? If yes, why are the cases of the Virus are increasing instead of decreasing? Write atleast 10 Sentences.​

Answers

Many people do care about their community's welfare and hence decide to follow the protocols set by their government . But here comes some people who either aren't aware of the seriousness of the situation or thinks that it is something that can be easily resolved and are hence acting careless . But the pandemic is not as simple as it looks . Many doctors are dying and getting ventilators ( negative pressure and positive pressure ) is getting difficult day by day . Even if a person gets access to good artificial respiration ( ventilation ) there stands a problem of enduring the pain of the long moving process . In cases of corona virus patients , ventilation in the form of tracheostomy is used . Here they connect a long tube from the throat of a patient to their thoracic cavity where the trachea is present . This process is very painful and involves a lot of will power from the patient's side as well as the doctor's to keep the patient's breath under control . But many people , who aren't aware of the situation's seriousness go about here and there . What they dont realize is that they may come in contact with potential carriers of the virus . So , according to me the cases of virus affected patients are increasing instead of decreasing due to many people lacking the knowledge of how serious the situation is .

Answer:

I do not think people care as much anymore.

Explanation:

I think this because so many have been couped up for so long people want to go out and socialize and stuff like that. Trump is an anti-masker so people are going to think that they should as well (not to be political but it's true). Lots of people also underestimate the power of the virus, so they do not protect themselves. Some schools reopened and allowed students back in (like mine did then immediately 2 cases formed up). The virus is a problem in the US right now and a lot of people are not taking the safety precautions to help it not spread so it will just keep on going and spreading.

Ghost of Christmas present showed Christmas at Crarchit’s to Scrooge so he can see that despite Bob having a lousy job, being underpaid, and his family having so little, they are still happy and celebrate.

He wants Scrooge to learn that money doesn’t buy you happiness and that there is no excuse for him being a horrible human being. In Cratchit’s home, he can see a family that has so little, who celebrate despite knowing their son will die soon, and yet they are still kind, loving, and warm to each other.

Scrooge can learn kindness from them, and being generous even when life circumstances are terrible.

​In paragraph 1 of this section, what do you think the phrase ​forged in the crucible of war ​means?

Answers

Answer:

While this is somewhat vague, you can take apart a statement by examining the context and meanings of the selected words. Forged generally means “created,” but with imagery of weaponry. This is also true for crucible. A crucible is associated with molten metal and other weaponry. Someone forged in the crucible of war may have been “hardened by the tests of wartime, or afflicted by the trials of war.” Hope this helps.

One of the paragraphs in her paper reads:According to a 2018 New York Times article, Coconut oils image has gotten a makeover in recent years, and many natural food stores stock the product. But despite a lot of hype about it, said Dr. Alice H. Lichtenstein, a Tufts University professor of nutrition science and policy who is vice chair of the federal governments dietary guidelines advisory committee, theres virtually no data to support the hype (Rabin). According to a CNN news report discussing coconut oil, Health organizations tend to discourage the use of coconut oil, which is more than 80% saturated fat. The American Health Association says its better on your skin than in your food, and it recommends that no more than 5% or 6% of your daily calories come from saturated fatsabout 13 grams per day. The association also advocates replacing coconut oil with healthy fats such as polyunsaturated fats and monounsaturated fats, like those found in canola and olive oils, avocados and fatty fish (Drayer, et. al). Additionally, Like other oils, coconut oil is calorie-dense, which means consuming large amounts without reducing other calorie sources can lead to weight gain. Just one tablespoon has 120 calories, about the same as a large apple or four cups of air-popped popcorn (Drayer, et. al).This paragraph effectively relates the writers source material to her own ideas about coconut oil.
