A Song of the English
by Rudyard Kipling (excerpt)
Fair is our lot -- O goodly is our heritage!
(Humble ye, my people, and be fearful in your mirth!)
For the Lord our God Most High
He hath made the deep as dry,
He hath smote for us a pathway to the ends of all the Earth!
Yea, though we sinned -- and our rulers went fror righteousness -
Deep in all dishonour though we stained our garments' hem.
oh be ye not dismayed,
Though we stumbled and we strayed,
We were led by evil counsellors -- the Lord shall deal with them!
Keep ye the Law -- be swift in all obedience --
Clear the land of evil, drive the road and bridge the ford.
Make ye sure to each his own
That he reap where he hath sown;
By the peace among our peoples let men know we serve the Lord!
In the poem, the word goodly means
and
the phrase "evil counsellors" refers to

Answers

Answer 1

After reading the poem by Rudyard Kipling, we can the following about the meaning of each word:

1. The word "goodly" means:

D. Admirable

2. The phrase "evil counselors" refers to:

D. Rulers

What is the meaning of "goodly"?"Goodly" is an adjective that, in its archaic (old) use, means admirable. Notice that the language used in the poem is archaic, and several words are spelled or employed differently than they are nowadays.

Who are the "evil counselors"?The poem refers to rulers who have done bad things. The speaker says that, despite those rulers being evil, God will still forgive the people. That is what the speaker means when he mentions the "evil counselors".

With the information above in mind, we can choose letter D. admirable and also letter D. rulers as the best answers.

This question is missing the answer choices. They are the following:

In the poem, the word goodly means

a. joyful

b. enjoyable

c. hearty

d. admirable

the phrase "evil counsellors" refers to

a. Indians

b. ancestors

c. warriors

d. rulers

Which of these statements is punctuated properly?

A)"Your friend, she said," "is waiting for you."
B) "Your friend" she said 'is waiting for you."
C)"Your friend," she said, "is waiting for you."
D)"Your friend, she said, is waiting for you."

Answers

Answer:

C) "Your friend," she said, "is waiting for you."

Explanation:

Punctuation is the use of certain signs and writing forms to make a sentence correct and presentable. And in punctuation, it includes the use of commas, or any punctuation marks and capitalization in a sentence, to make it right.

Among the given sentences, the correct punctuated sentence is option C. This is because the sentence given in the direct speech requires the use of inverted commas to signify the speech. At the same time, the comma after 'friend' denotes that the speech is continuing. And the insertion of 'she said' in between the full direct speech requires the quoted speech to be on pause and not stopped with a period (.).

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Although you did not present the excerpt from the story, the line to which the question above refers is: "The reader learns to chase, and the momentum becomes unstoppable. "

Explanation:

In "A simple way to create suspense" we are presented with the idea that the creation of suspense in a story is done with the slow and unhurried disclosure of responses about the events of the hiostory and especially about its ending. In this text, the author states that "The reader learns to chase, and the momentum becomes unstoppable," showing that a good suspense is one in which the reader is encouraged to seek answers and therefore should not get them quickly.

ead the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 2, scene 1. CASSIUS. But it is doubtful yet, Whether Caesar will come forth today or no; For he is superstitious grown of late,750 Quite from the main opinion he held once Of fantasy, of dreams and ceremonies: It may be these apparent prodigies, The unaccustomed terror of this night, And the persuasion of his augurers,755 May hold him from the Capitol today. DECIUS. Never fear that. If he be so resolved I can o'ersway him; for he loves to hear That unicorns may be betrayed with trees, And bears with glasses, elephants with holes,760 Lions with toils, and men with flatterers; But when I tell him he hates flatterers; He says he does, being then most flattered. Let me work; For I can give his humour the true bent, And I will bring him to the Capitol.765 Which conclusion does this excerpt best support

This question is missing the options. I have found the complete question online. Since the excerpt is the same, I will omit it:

Which conclusion does this excerpt best support?  

a Decius will entertain Caesar with stories to keep him home.

b Just as Cassius fears, Caesar will not come to the Capitol.

c The bad weather will make Caesar decide to stay at home.

d Decius strongly believes that he can get Caesar to go to the Capitol.

Answer:

The conclusion best supported by the excerpt is:

d. Decius strongly believes that he can get Caesar to go to the Capitol.

Explanation:

Decius is telling Cassius to not worry about Caesar not coming to the Capitol. Decius is confident that he can change Caesar's mind. He clearly has a way with words, being able to deceive and persuade. He gives an interesting example, saying that he flatters Caesar by telling him that he (Caesar) hates flatterers. He knows what Caesar likes to hear, so it is easy for him to convince him to do something.

"Julius Caesar" is a play by William Shakespeare based on the story of the Roman emperor. Caesar is betrayed and killed by his friends.
