ANTIGONE:
And yet good hope is mine that I shall find
A welcome from my sire, a welcome too,
From thee, my mother, and my brother dear,
From with these hands, I laved and decked your limbs
In death, and poured libations on your grave.
And last, my Polyneices, unto thee
I paid due rites, and this my recompense!
Yet am I justified in wisdom's eyes.
For even had it been some child of mine,
Or husband mouldering in death's decay,
I had not wrought this deed despite the State.

What is the another sentence of the thought 'feminism isn't about making women stronger. Women are already strong. It's about changing the way the world perceives that strength.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Another sentence of the thought 'feminism isn't about making women stronger. Women are already strong. It's about changing the way the world perceives that strength," would be the following.

Feminism has to make women stronger than they are. And it is not a matter of perception, it is a fact."

This sentence is related to the activist work done by Australian activist G. D Anderson. She is a writer that likes to spend altruistic time helping women of underdeveloped countries like Namibia, in Africa. She is concerned about the poverty in those places and has created the "The Cova Project," helping African women to provide feminine products to improve their health conditions.

2.What‌ ‌is‌ ‌the‌ ‌Boo‌ ‌Radley‌ ‌game?‌ ‌Do‌ ‌you‌ ‌think‌ ‌this‌ ‌is‌ ‌an‌ ‌accurate‌ ‌version‌ ‌of‌ ‌what‌ ‌happens‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌Radley‌ ‌home?‌ ‌

Answers

Answer:

The Boo Radley game was an improvised and imagined version of how the children assumed happened in the Radley household. The game was played by Jem, Dill, and Scout 'in secret'.

The game seemed hardly accurate because as Scout revealed, Boo seemed to enjoy seeing the children play and even 'laughed' observing them.

Explanation:

Harper Lee's "To Kill A Mockingbird" revolves around the small town of Maycomb in Alabama through the eyes of Scout Finch, a young girl, and the protagonist and narrator. The novel deals with themes of race, society, law, right, wrong, etc. among others.

The Boo Radley game was a game that Jem brought up. "I was Mrs. Radley, and all I had to do was come out and sweep the porch. Dill was old Mr. Radley: he walked up and down the sidewalk and coughed when Jem spoke to him. Jem, naturally, was Boo: he went under the front steps and shrieked and howled from time to time." The game was a depiction of the Radley family, stories about them, and different versions of what happened in the Radley home as the children assumed them to be.

The game was not exactly an accurate version of the Radley home because, as Scout revealed "Someone inside the house was laughing", it was likely that Boo Radley was laughing at the children's play.

D. One fighter's name is David.

Explanation:

When we allude to this biblical story when describing a battle, we refer to the difference in size between the fighters and that even though one of them did not seem like a possible threat to the other, it was. It shows how someone can underestimate another person and their abilities, which allows the person to succeed.

Question 1 (1 point)
Esperanza and her family have moved a lot
O True
O False
Question 2 (1 point)

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Esperanza has been living in many different places and has experienced many different lifestyles. In fact, she feels normal to move.

Jackie and I became friends about three years ago, in the middle of the 7th grade. Having just moved to Houston from Oklahoma City, she was introduced to our class that morning.
At lunch, I was sitting with the rest of the drama club when I noticed her standing awkwardly with her tray. I could see she was debating on where she should sit. Having just moved to the area a couple of years ago, I knew exactly how she felt.
Feeling kind, I called out, "Hey! Wanna sit with us?"
With a hopeful smile, Jackie looked toward the table where Mindy, the "coolest" girl in school, and her followers sat, but seeing no one looking at her, she turned, puzzled, and saw me waving at her. What happened next surprised me. She gave me a haughty look and turned back around.
"A 'no, thank you' would have been a bit kinder," I muttered.
My friend Lindsey patted me on the back. "Look at how she's dressed—designer jeans and a trendy top. You can tell she's one of those." With a shrug, she said, "Some girls just care about being 'popular.' "
The new girl straightened her shoulders. She approached Mindy, and although I couldn't hear what was being said, I did see Mindy laugh and give her the wave to go away. The poor girl got rejected. Mindy must have made a cruel comment at Jackie's expense because eruptive laughs and spiteful looks were aimed her way. I watched as Jackie walked to an empty table across the room. She looked like she was about to cry.
I shook my head at the irony. What goes around comes around fast, I thought to myself.
After lunch, I stopped by the bathroom. As I washed my hands, I heard sniffling coming from one of the stalls. "Are you okay?" I called out. No answer came. Not knowing what else to do, I just said, "The bell's going to ring soon."
With that, I heard the click of the lock, and out stepped the new girl.
"Hi," I said, startled. I stuck out my hand. "I'm Steph."
"I'm Jackie," she said, shaking my hand. Her damp eyes and pink nose proved that she had been crying. "Sorry about earlier. I was pretty rude."
"Not as rude as Mindy was," I answered with a sympathetic smile. "Come on. We better get to class."
