Read the passage from A Raisin in the Sun. MAMA (sensing their facetiousness): What's the matter with you all? WALTER: Ain't nothing the matter with us. We just telling you 'bout the gentleman who came to see you this afternoon. From the Clybourne Park Improvement Association. MAMA: What he want? RUTH (in the same mood as BENEATHA and WALTER): To welcome you, honey. WALTER: He said they can't hardly wait. He said the one thing they don't have, that they just dying to have out there is a fine family of fine colored people! (To RUTH and BENEATHA.) Ain't that right! RUTH (mockingly): Yeah! He left his card— BENEATHA (handing card to MAMA): In case. MAMA reads and throws it on the floor—understanding and looking off as she draws her chair up to the table on which she has put her plant and some sticks and some cord. MAMA: Father, give us strength. (Knowingly—and without fun.) Did he threaten us? BENEATHA: Oh—Mama—they don't do it like that anymore. He talked Brotherhood. He said everybody ought to learn how to sit down and hate each other with good Christian fellowship. Which statement best summarizes the theme in this passage? When you welcome new arrivals, it may not always go as planned. Racism exists even when racists do not talk openly about their views. The use of polite language and kind gestures can resolve problems. Treating people with kindness and honesty leads to fair treatment.

Answers

I need clear answers on this. Could you please tell me a small summary of the story so I can help you? If your hook is going to start with no I need to understand why.

Final answer:

Use the hook: 'In a world full of phonies, should Holden be labelled as crazy?' to engage the reader and introduce your stance on whether Holden should be in a mental institution at the end of The Catcher in the Rye.

Explanation:

A good hook for your essay on The Catcher in the Rye could be:

'In a world full of phonies, should Holden be labelled as crazy?'

This hook not only grabs the reader's attention with the mention of phonies, a central theme in the novel, but also poses a thought-provoking question about Holden's mental state. To support your stance of 'no' in the essay, you can explore Holden's criticisms of society, his struggles with authenticity, and his desire to protect innocence. Remember to provide clear evidence from the novel to back up your arguments.

what is the best way to change this sentence from active voice to passive voice?

[You must take the wind, the clouds, and the sky into account when describing the landscape.]


a. Artists always take into account the wind, the clouds, and the sky when they describe the landscape.

b. You should take into account the wind, the clouds, and the sky when describing the landscape.

c. The wind, the clouds, and the sky must all be taken into account when describing the landscape.

d. When describing the landscape, you must take the wind, the clouds, and the sky into account.​

Answers

I'd say A.

The word "describing" or almost anything ending with "ing" signifies an action occuring now, or in the present. B, C, and D use "when describing" which leads to the assumption that these things listed are taken into account while the landscape is being described but answer choice A uses "when they describe" which is passive rather than active.

I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud
by William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a Cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and Hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden Daffodils;
Beside the Lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A Poet could not but be gay
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude,
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the Daffodils.

How does the meaning of the last stanza relate to the meaning of the whole poem?


A.)It summarizes the poem.

B.) It connects the spirit of the speaker with that of the daffodils.

C.) It describes a new scene in a natural setting.

D.) It tells readers that the speaker loves to be around happy people.

Answers

It is b. ————————————————

Answer:

B.) It connects the spirit of the speaker with that of the daffodils.

Explanation:

William Wordsworth's poem "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" recounts of when the speaker had encountered a field of daffodils. The appearance of the flowers, their slow swaying along with the breeze made him forget the real world and began thinking of other things.

The poem represents the speaker's appreciation of nature and how it gave him pleasure and "glee" that he never expected. Comparing himself to a cloud, he identifies himself being one with nature. Leaving the material world behind, he began wondering as being one with the natural world, the daffodils,the wind etc. And in later days, when he is alone in his couch, he remembers how that encounter with the daffodils had left him happy again. He emphasizes that the beauty of nature, even if not always appreciated, is what one have to be aware of. Nature and humanity have an unbreakable bond which sometimes men, in our busy lives, seem to forget all about it.

His last paragraph when he is lying in his couch, thinking back to the daffodils, he meant that his spirit will always be connected to them flowers.

[Here's the paragraph]

The pet food Industry

you have just adopted a pet, and you're at a pet supply store. you are overwhelmed by The never-ending sea of colorful pet food packages. some bags clean that they're organic or natural. but what does that mean?and then there are the stacks of canned food, boasting loudly of their superior concerts. what's the difference among these foods? does it matter what you feed a dog or cat? yes, it does matter. in the text on the package does not always tell the whole story.

Answers

If you are just looking at these last sentences, it states, "Yes, it does matter."  The fourth answer has nothing to do with the paragraph or these sentences.  While the author may appreciate the range of nutritional options, he does not present information in this paragraph to indicate that, so the third answer is not correct.  That leaves the first and second answer.  When you tie these last sentences with the rest of the paragraph, it doesn't say that the owners are indifferent about providing appropriate nutrition; it just says that they can be overwhelmed by all of the choices, so the second answer would be the best answer here.  The author feels that owners should educate themselves about pet nutrition and the products that are offered.

Answer:They emphasize the author's concern that pet owners are indifferent in providing appropriate nutrition for their pets

Explanation: because of the different packages of food, we pick the one that appeals to us more instead of the ones that helps the dog or cat diet

How does the author use the falling action in this story? In “whistling my worries away”

Your question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows.

Whistling my worries away

How does the author use the falling action in this story?  

A) to demonstrate why Camila has decided to close the camp

B) to reinforce Benito’s failure with criticism from the campers’ parents

C) to explain why Benito is now thinking about becoming a drama teacher

D) to reinforce Benito’s success with feedback from the visiting representative

Answer:

The correct option is D) to reinforce Benito's success with feedback from the visiting representative.

Explanation:

In literature, falling action is what comes after the climax, when the problem is solved. In the short story "Whistling my Troubles Away", Benito's problem is coming up with something, some sort of presentation or play, for the children to do when their parents come to the camp. The climax is when Benito realizes he can use whistling - he whistles when he is nervous - to solve his problem. After the kids' presentation, during the falling action, Benito is complimented on his performance by the representative and is offered the position in the drama program permanently:

“I know it’s not exactly Shakespeare or anything…” I began, but he brushed that off. “You got them coordinated on a single task. They had fun. They gave a performance. What more do you expect from seven-year-olds?” Camila gave me a grin and a big thumbs-up.

The campers were saying excited goodbyes. “That was the best part of my whole camp,” Mariana told me shyly, as she gave me a hug.

“Well, Benito,” Camila said as the last campers and parents left. “Luci comes back from her trip soon. But I really liked what you did with the kids. The job is yours if you still want it.”

I thought back to my conversation with Luci, just a few weeks ago.

“I don’t even like little kids,” I had told her. “And I certainly don’t know how to do drama with them.”

“You’ll figure it out,” Luci had assured me. And she had been right.

I smiled at Camila. “I’ll take it.” I said. “I know exactly what to do with the next group of kids.”

Answers

Answer:

C. The volta introduces a new idea that indicates a shift in tone from the octave of the sonnet.

Explanation:

This is the best explanation of the effect of the volta in this sonnet. The "volta" (Italian for "turn") is a change in thought or argument that takes place towards the end of a sonnet. In this case, most of the sonnet talks about ways in which the speaker feels unfortunate. However, the volta signals a change, as the speaker begins to concentrate in what makes him feel lucky. The reason for his change is the thought of having the love of his beloved.

The answer is C cause I checked and it's right.
