"I watch the ball leave his hands like a bird up high, skating the sky, crossing over us." What is the ball symbolic of? A the father, Chuck Bell B winning the county championship C JB and Miss Sweet Tea dating D the bond between Josh and JB

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. the father, Chuck Bell

Explanation:

This question is about "The Crossover" and narrates the final moment of the story that presents a strong symbolism and a moving resolution about the relationship between the narrator and his father. When the narrator compares the ball with a bird, it means that he saw it flying over the sky and somehow, for him, it symbolized the spirit of his own father, who despite being in the sky, was close to him.

Which statement best describes Caliban's appearance as he portrays himself in "En el Jardín de los Espejos Quebrados"?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Caliban portrays himself as an ugly and unclean being. This caused him to reflect on how big, ugly, swollen and dirty his feet are. This is completely contrasting with the way he sees Miranda, as he sees her in a delicate and beautiful way.

This reflects how individuals dominated by imperialist nations were encouraged to see themselves and their cultures as something inferior, ugly, dull and dirty compared to colonial and dominant nations.

True or False: Odysseus's men were more interested in meeting the Cyclopes than leaving with his cheese and lambs.

Answers

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Odysseus' men just wanted the cheese and lambs and didn't want to meet Cyclops because they were terrified of him. It was Odysseus himself that was eager to meet him.

King Odysseus of Ithaca and the remainder of his shipwrecked men came upon the cave of Cyclops and while his men were terrified of the Cyclops and didn't want to meet him, Odysseus was fascinated and very much wanted to meet him.

As you read the passage below from the end of Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address, think about how his words support the purpose of the speech.
"With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations."
What is Lincoln's goal in the conclusion of his speech?
A. To warn the South that the North intends to keep on fighting
B. To emphasize the importance of winning the war and proceeding as a united nation
C. To create a feeling of compassion for the widows and orphans of Civil War soldiers
D. To establish the conditions and terms of the end of the fighting

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Lincoln's presidency was perhaps the most complicated in American History and that's likely because the man himself was not simple.

He was a compassionate man, and yet he was the commander and chief of one side of the first modern war.

He was plagued by a cabinet that would have liked nothing better than to betray him.

He was surrounded by generals who were deficient in their trade until Sherman and Grant came along.

So the answer to your question is that Lincoln rose above all these troubles and clung to his humanity. By the time he had delivered the second inaugural address, the South was on its knees, close to defeat.  

A certainly has nothing to do with what Lincoln was saying. Of all your choices, this one is the least defensible.

B in my opinion is a possible choice. Lincoln's reason for going to war in the first place was that as president, he wanted the country to be unified. In his mind, there was no such thing as two Americas. There should only be one.

C is probably the second best answer. At least that what was in the paragraph that was quoted. C is a little bit narrow in this make up.

D. is likely the right answer. I would pick it because he's asking the victors to act humanely, especially in the first sentence which is world famous. I would always pick a remark that urges us to act at the highest levels of common decency and true humanity.

This question is an excellent question. It has three answers that can be chosen. Anyone of the three deserves our attention. If one is picked, it reflects more about us as people than it does about the politics of the era. It is a better essay question than multiple choice, but it is also something that is worth thinking about long after you've submitted an answer. It reflects the best in what makes America what she is.

To emphasize the importance of winning the war and proceeding as a united nation
