Differentiate solid materials when bent and when pressed, pls help me!
Answer:
When pressing a solid material it can take a different shape or change in size, however when bending a solid material this does not happen.
Explanation:
Solid state materials at a certain temperature are characterized by:
present a high cohesion between the molecules that form it (the particles are united by very high attractive forces that make them remain almost fixed) have a constant shape and volume often forming characteristic geometric structures such as crystalline structures they are incompressible are resistant to fragmentation they do not have fluidity because the particles can only vibrate around fixed positions
A flexible material cannot be molded and only accepts shape changes when bending.
You do not get new materials when pressing a solid material.
The solid materials take the different shapes or sizes when it is pressed. The solid materials do not change the shape or size in bending.
The solid-state materials at some level of temperature:
Contain a high cohesion among the molecules that make them united at high force and thus they remain fixed. It also has a constant shape and volume such as crystalline structures. The solid materials are incompressible and lack fluidity because the particles of the materials vibrate in a fixed position.A fixed solid material cannot be molded and can only accept the changes in shapes when blended. The solid materials are so hard that they cannot be pressed and if pressed, they do not change the shape or size.Therefore the solid material can be bent but not pressed due to its hard nature.

I know the passage is VERY long!! Sorry.
One of the French experts, Sylvestre de Sacy, started with the proper names in the Greek passage and tried to find their equivalents in the demotic version. He believed that, after he’d singled out the names, he would be able to identify the demotic letters in each of them. With these letters in hand, he could then go on to translate other names and words in the demotic passage.
But the process proved to be much more difficult than de Sacy had anticipated. He succeeded in isolating the groups of demotic letters for the names of Ptolemy and Alexander, but found it impossible to identify the individual letters in the names. Eventually he gave up, saying, “The problem is too complicated, scientifically insoluble.”
A pupil of de Sacy’s, the Swedish diplomat Johan Akerblad, made better progress. Akerblad managed to locate in the demotic passage all the proper names that occurred in the Greek. From them he constructed a “demotic alphabet” of twenty-nine letters, almost half of which later proved to be correct.

Whats the overall rhythm in “Piano” by DH Lawrence?
A. Narrative
B. In iambic pentameter
C. Song-like
D. In meter
Answer:
C. Song-like
Explanation:
Piano is a lyric poem written by DH Lawrence. Like in most of Lawrence's poetry, emotions are the most dominant in this poem. The feeling that is expressed here is nostalgia, a longing for the past. There is no narration here.
This poem is not written in a particular constant meter. In each stanza, the lines get longer as the stanza goes on, showing that the speaker is going deeper into his memories.
However, this poem feels like a song, which is why option C is the correct one. Here, Lawrence uses the rhyming pattern of a hymn or nursery rhyme to make the poem feel like a song, while alluding to the music in the first stanza and using punctuation to control the rhythm.

(a) What type of poem is "Elliptical"? Explain. (b) In what ways does the choice of form affect how the reader experiences the poem? (c) Rewrite the poem, adding line breaks that make sense to you. Compare with the original. What is lost and what is gained by the poet's choice of form?
Answer:
"Elliptical" is a prose poem.
Rewritten with line breaks:

Compare and contrast:
The poet's choice of form has pros and cons. On the one hand, because none of the sentences in the poem are completed, the paragraph-like structure of the poem could make it easy for the reader to get lost or bored. However, this may still have been a valid artistic choice. After all, the poem is about the "elliptical" of excuses for racism, so maybe it makes sense to have the reader get tired, and associate that weariness with those excuses. In contrast, making the poem have lines and stanzas, rather than a paragraph structure, makes the reader more likely to try to interpret the individual significance of each line, rather than look at what the lines all mean together.

Young had learned to read before he was two, and by the age of twenty had mastered a dozen foreign languages including Arabic, Persian, and Turkish. An inheritance from an uncle left him free to pursue his scientific interests. At various times, Young studied the habits of spiders, the surface features of the moon, and diseases of the chest. Then, intrigued by the challenge of the Rosetta Stone, he put aside his other studies and concentrated on attempting to decipher the writing on it.
