Aul Laurence Dunbar's "We Wear the Mask" and "Sympathy" are poems that resound with suffering. What causes the pain of the people who wear the mask and the repeated injuries of the caged bird? Why do the people and the bird not change their situations? To whom do the sufferers appeal in their pain, and why? Use the poems to support your response

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

In relation to the two poems, we can see that what causes pain in people wearing masks and in the caged bird is the impossibility of showing who they really are and exposing what they really feel. People who wear masks hide their feelings, while the caged bird cannot fly as its nature desires.

People and the caged bird do not change their situation because they are trapped in their own reality and need outside help to escape. The bird needs someone to open its cage, while the masked people need to ask God for help to support their lives.

Both the bird and the people make an appeal to God, because he is the only one who can understand them, truly listen to them and free them from their prisons.

C

You use an outline format to show relationships among pieces of information. The further left the information, the more important it is. I don’t actually use the I, A, 1, etc – I just use indents.

However, if the teacher is giving a “stream of consciousness” lecture, you may have to rewrite your notes later so they make more sense. Or just use a pencil with a good eraser

write a short claim for why police should wear body cameras

Answers

To easily capture things cops couldn't see, play back footage and audio in court, and to ensure excess aggressive force isn't used on civilians.
Here is a short claim on the importance of police wearing body cameras:

The average person will behave better if they know that there is some level of accountability for their actions. When there is a noticeable camera present on the uniform of a police officer, then the interactions between the public and law enforcement officials typically become more civilized. Because the footage can also be useful as evidence if a case goes to trial, many suspects calm down from an initially aggressive response because there is an increased risk of more charges based on the direct record of their activities.

Some officials may bristle at the idea of adding something else to do, but the cameras used as part of their duties are not cumbersome, bulky, or obtrusive to the work being performed. Most of the devices work well with the existing uniform so that one hardly knows it is there.

I hope this helps, have a great rest of your day! <3

Read the following passage from Heywood Broun’s The Fifty-First Dragon to answer questions 6-10.
OF all the pupils at the knight school Gawaine le Cur-Hardy was among the least promising. He was tall and sturdy, but his instructors soon discovered that he lacked spirit. He would hide in the woods when the jousting class was called, although his companions and members of the faculty sought to appeal to his better nature by shouting to him to come out and break his neck like a man. Even when they told him that the lances were padded, the horses no more than ponies and the field unusually soft for late autumn, Gawaine refused to grow enthusiastic. The Headmaster and the Assistant Professor of Pleasaunce were discussing the case one spring afternoon and the Assistant Professor could see no remedy but expulsion.

“No,” said the Headmaster, as he looked out at the purple hills which ringed the school, “I think I’ll train him to slay dragons.”

“He might be killed,” objected the Assistant Professor.

“So he might,” replied the Headmaster brightly, but he added, more soberly, “we must consider the greater good. We are responsible for the formation of this lad’s character.”

“Are the dragons particularly bad this year?” interrupted the Assistant Professor. This was characteristic. He always seemed restive when the head of the school began to talk ethics and the ideals of the institution.

“I’ve never known them worse,” replied the Headmaster. “Up in the hills to the south last week they killed a number of peasants, two cows and a prize pig. And if this dry spell holds there’s no telling when they may start a forest fire simply by breathing around indiscriminately.”

“Would any refund on the tuition fee be necessary in case of an accident to young Cur-Hardy?”

“No,” the principal answered, judicially, “that’s all covered in the contract. But as a matter of fact he won’t be killed. Before I send him up in the hills I’m going to give him a magic word.”

“That’s a good idea,” said the Professor. “Sometimes they work wonders.”

Read the excerpt from Loom and Spindle.

My mother's boarders were many of them young men, and usually farmers' sons. They were almost invariably of good character and behavior, and it was a continual pleasure for me and my brothers to associate with them. I was treated like a little sister, never hearing a word or seeing a look to remind me that I was not of the same sex as my brothers. I played checkers with them, sometimes "beating," and took part in their conversation, and it never came into my mind that they were not the same as so many "girls."

Which statement best reflects the narrator’s perspective in the excerpt?

Answer:

The narrator perspective is gender equality.

Explanation:

Loom and Spindle or Life among the early Mill Girls is written by Harriet Hanson Robinson and was published in 1898. The narrator is trying to portray the hidden powers of a girl.

I need a paragraph on how social media is good for teens in terms of entertainment. Help and I might give you brainliest if it’s a good paragraph :)

Answers

Answer:

Social media is a big part of many young people’s social and creative lives. Social media is becoming increasingly embedded in apps, games, websites and even learning environments, so it’s hard to ban, even for younger children. And if you ban social media, your child might be more tempted to check it out when they’re away from home. This means you miss the opportunity to teach your child how to navigate social media risks and behave respectfully on social media.

Children and teenagers use social media to have fun, make and maintain friendships, share interests, explore identities and develop relationships with family. It’s an extension of their offline and face-to-face interactions. For older teenagers especially, it’s often a key part of how they connect with friends.

Social media can connect children and teenagers to online global communities based on shared interests. These might be support networks – for example, for young people with disability or medical conditions, teenagers, or children from particular cultural backgrounds. Or they might be sites for commenting on and sharing content about particular interests like games, TV series, music or hobbies.

On the other hand,in order to keep your teen kid safe, try by blocking and reporting people they don’t know or people who post upsetting comments or content.

Select the correct answer.
Read the excerpt from A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. What can you conclude from this passage?

He felt that it was tall and stately when it came beside him, and that its mysterious presence filled him with a solemn dread. He knew no more, for the Spirit neither spoke nor moved.

"I am in the presence of the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come?" said Scrooge.

The Spirit answered not, but pointed onward with its hand.

"You are about to show me shadows of the things that have not happened, but will happen in the time before us," Scrooge pursued.

"Is that so, Spirit?"

The upper portion of the garment was contracted for an instant in its folds, as if the Spirit had inclined its head. That was the only answer he received.

Although well used to ghostly company by this time, Scrooge feared the silent shape so much that his legs trembled beneath him, and he found that he could hardly stand when he prepared to follow it. The Spirit paused a moment, as observing his condition, and giving him time to recover.

But Scrooge was all the worse for this. It thrilled him with a vague uncertain horror, to know that behind the dusky shroud, there were ghostly eyes intently fixed upon him, while he, though he stretched his own to the utmost, could see nothing but a spectral hand and one great heap of black.

A.
Scrooge has learned from the visits of the other ghosts that he is powerless, so he must submit to this one.
B.
This ghost is able to communicate more effectively than the previous ghosts, even without talking.
C.
This ghost is willing to let Scrooge die without undergoing redemption by changing his way of living.
D.
Scrooge is more profoundly disturbed by this ghost than by the others because it is so mysterious.
E.
Scrooge is able to interpret what the ghost is thinking despite its mysterious, silent way of being.

Answers

Answer:

the answer is D.Scrooge is more profoundly disturbed by this ghost than by the others because it is so mysterious.

Explanation:

The thing which can be concluded from this passage is that D. Scrooge is more profoundly disturbed by this ghost than by the others because it is so mysterious.

What is a Conclusion?

This refers to the use of inference to come to a decision about something based on available evidence.

Hence, we can see that from the given text, there is the use of narration to show the effect of the ghost on Scrooge and how he is very disturbed and more scared than the others.
