In Night by Elie Wiesel, there are many facts and opinions that support the theme that in life-threatening circumstances, the instinct to survive overcomes everything else.
One fact that supports this theme is the following excerpt: “The Kapos were beating us again, but I no longer felt the pain.” This is a fact because describing the actions or behavior of individuals (“The Kapos were beating us again. . .”) is a tool that authors of memoirs use to include facts. This excerpt reflects the theme because Wiesel is not reacting to the pain in a way that he would have normally had he not been in a concentration camp. Because he will likely continue to face this type of extreme pain, his body is reacting to the pain in a way that will help Wiesel to survive, more or less, intact. One opinion that supports this theme is the following excerpt: “Our senses were numbed, everything was fading into a fog. We no longer clung to anything.” This is an opinion because author commentary and depictions of the author’s thoughts are tools that authors of memoirs use to include opinions. This excerpt reflects the theme because it presents the senses of everyone in the camp as being “numbed,” a way to help the mind deal with extreme circumstances.

Which lines in this excerpt from Elizabeth Bishop's "The Fish" use assonance?
He was speckled with barnacles,
fine rosettes of lime,
and infested
with tiny white sea-lice,
and underneath two or three
rags of green weed hung down.
While his gills were breathing in
the terrible oxygen
--the frightening gills,
fresh and crisp with blood, that can cut so badly—
I thought of the coarse white flesh
packed in like feathers,
the big bones and the little bones,
Answer:
fine rosettes of lime,
and infested
with tiny white sea-lice,
and underneath two or three
rags of green weed hung down.
While his gills were breathing in
the terrible oxygen
--the frightening gills,
Explanation:
Assonance is the repeated use of the same vowel/ vowel sounds in near proximity in a line of poetry. This literary device consist of the repetition of the diphtho ng in any un-rhymed words in poetry.
Elizabeth Bishop's poem "The Fish" also uses this device in many of her lines. The lines
"fine rosettes of lime,
and infested
with tiny white sea-lice,
and underneath two or three
rags of green weed hung down.
While his gills were breathing in
the terrible oxygen
--the frightening gills,
the use of assonance is seen the most. Though there are no rhyming words in them, they contains more of assonance.
Assonance is seen in the use of the "i", "o",
fine rosettes of lime,
and infested
with tiny white sea-lice,
and underneath two or three
rags of green weed hung down.
While his gills were breathing in
the terrible oxygen
--the frightening gills.
which satirical element does this sentences use
Answer:
Understatement.
Explanation:
Understatement is a satirical element use to intentionally make the situation seem less important than it really is.
These types of figures of speech are satirical elements because an intense response is expected in front of the situation presented. In the example given in the question, the adjective pleased for receiving as a gift a new car full of 100 dollars bills is not the adjective that will be used in those situations.

Therefore, the missing question that would trigger that answer is "When is your birthday?"

what theme about government does jefferson communicate in the second paragraph from the story the declaration of independence
Answer: The power, legitimacy, authority of the government come from its citizens
Explanation: Since the Declaration was written under the direct influence of the Enlightenment ideas, the second paragraph gives meaning, that is, the basic thesis, which is why the Declaration was written. Since, according to Enlightenment ideas, all people are born equal with the same innate natural rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of personal happiness, so these same people have the right to choose a government that protects the natural rights of their citizens. This means that if a government is tyrannical, as was the British rule over the 13 colonies, then the citizens have the right to overthrow and replace such a government, which was the for writing a declaration as a guarantor and guide to creating a state independent of British rule that was tyrannical and all in line with the Enlightenment ideas. That is why the second paragraph speaks of a government that will protect the interests and rights of citizens, i.e the government's mandate, authority and powers come from the people, which is a prerequisite that, according to the Enlightenment, such a government should not be tyrannical.

Read the excerpt from The Odyssey.
But when he knew he heard
Odysseus' voice nearby, he did his best
to wag his tail, nose down, with flattened ears,
having no strength to move nearer his master.
And the man looked away,
wiping a salt tear from his cheek:
What does the dog, Argus, represent in this excerpt?
A)loyalty
B)sadness
C)illness
D)ignorance
A)loyalty
In the passage the dog is not well enough to run to Odysseus and show his excitement. However, it does say he "did his best to wag his tail." This shows Argus' love and loyalty to his master. It is also clear that Odysseus feels love and loyalty to his dog when he must look away "wiping a salt tear from his cheek." Seeing Argus in distress also causes an emotional reaction from Odysseus.
Is the group of words a sentence or a run-on sentence? most dogs have long tails, pugs have curly tails.
a. sentenceb. run-on

The poem “Richard Cory” by Edwin Arlington Robinson explores how the theme of dissatisfaction and the mentality that “the grass is greener on the other side” affects all humans. Which lines in this excerpt reflect those themes?
a.And he was rich—yes, richer than a king—
And admirably schooled in every grace
b.To make us wish that we were in his place.
c.So on we worked, and waited for the light
d.Went home and put a bullet through his head.
The question states that "Richard Cory" explores that "the grass is greener on the other side" affects all humans.
Because of this, I believe the answer is B and D.
With B and D, you can see both sides, both people from opposite sides of "the grass" who wish to be on the other side.
B. "To make us wish that we were in his place" says this directly, while D. "Went home and put a bullet through his head" implies it. He was obviously unhappy with his life, and wished for something else.

Edwards v. South Carolina is significant in terms of selective incorporation because it limited states’ abilities to restrict
A the freedom of speech.
B the right to petition the government for redress.
C the right to peacefully assemble.
D the freedom of the press.
Answer:
Right to peacefully assemble.
Explanation:
In March, 1961, a number of African-American high school and college students gathered at Zion Baptist Church in Columbia, South Carolina. From there they marched in groups to the South Carolina State House in a peaceful protest march concerning civil rights of black American citizens. They maintained a peaceful, non-violent approach throughout their activity. Nevertheless, police officials insisted that they had to stop their assembly and disperse within 15 minutes, or be arrested. They did not disperse; they sang spiritual and patriotic songs. 187 persons were arrested and charged with disturbing the peace.
The students who were arrested and punished sought justice through the court system, and their case, known as Edwards v. South Carolina, was decided by the US Supreme Court in 1963. The Court held that the Constitution (specifically the 1st and 14th Amendments) did not allow state government officials or police to force a crowd to disperse when they are otherwise behaving legally. Marching in front of a state house in a peaceful manner is a protected form of free speech. Edwards v. South Carolina protected the right of citizens to assemble and express their views in a peaceful protest.
