   Here, 'I' is the subject and 'went' is the verb.  

-- I forgot to study

   Here, 'I' is the subject and 'forgot' is the verb.

Hello. You did not inform the sentences that should be organized, but the myth of Philemon and Baucis is established as follows:

One day Zeus and Hermes decided to disguise themselves as peasants and test people's compassion, as they would ask for abirgo and see if they were charitable. However, they were treated and abused by all residents of the city, even the wealthiest. Until at a certain point, they arrived at the home of Philemon and Baucis, a very poor couple who lived in a hut, but who treated the disguised gods in the best possible way and offered shelter for as long as they needed. They serve the gods with plenty of food and wine, which in gratitude does not allow food and drink to run out. Upon realizing that food and drink were multiplying, they realize that peasants are gods and apologize for sheltering them in such a poor place, in addition to that Philemon claims that he will kill a goose, to prepare a good dinner for the gods.

But he says this will not be necessary and asks Philemon and Baucis to leave the city quickly, as it will be destroyed as a punishment for people's lack of hospitality. For Philemon and Baucis to be saved, they had to climb a mountain and not return until it reached its summit.

They obey Zeus' orders and when they looked at the city they saw that it was competently destroyed, but their hut was transformed into a sanctuary and they were chosen to be the guardians of the place. Zeus also allowed them to die together and become two intertwined trees.

Hyperbole is a figure of speech. For example: “There's enough food in the cupboard to feed an entire army!” ... For example: “This is the worst book in the world!” – the speaker doesn't literally mean that the book is the worst one ever written, but is using hyperbole to be dramatic and emphasize their opinion.

Answer:

The figurative language used in the stanza is: alliteration.

Explanation:

Alliteration is a literary device that repeats consonant sounds at the beginning of words that are close to each other in a structure. A simple example would be a well-known tongue twister: She sells seashells by the seashore (the /s/ sound is repeated).

In the stanza we are analyzing here, alliteration takes place when the author repeats the sound represented by the letter "h":

In the silence he has heard

We have three words in a row beginning with the same consonant sound. Thus, we have an alliteration.

The stanza is an excerpt from the poem "The D.um.b Soldier," by Robert Louis Stevenson.

Answer:

1: Cruel

2: upper-class

Was that right?

Let me know what numbers were correct or wrong

And for #8, You may notice there are 3 "L"'s at the beginning but the really first one is actually an "i"

A. Good-humored

B. Self-confident

C. Modest

D. Inquisitive

                                                  Explanations:

(A) Good humored is the most positive one, because it's nice to have a good humored person, while on the other hand sarcastic is more of a boring, less positive, connotation word.

(B) Self-confident is the best, because if you use conceited, people are gonna think of it as the person being to over/full of theirself, while self confident shows that you're basically confident of yourself, then people won't think of it to be bad.

(C) Modest is best to use, because mousy describes to be like a little mouse, shy and all that. Kinda baby-ish. But using the word modest makes it less negative, and has a little different meaning.

(D) We wouldn't use nosy, because that's automatically rude, etc.

Answer:

Hi Gracie,

I hope you’re doing well at your new school. You asked me about my hobbies in your last email. I 1 read magazines, and I also 2 do weights sometimes. But my favourite hobby is looking at the stars. I’m in the local 3 astronomy club. We go out at night and sit in a field or on a hill, then we watch the night sky. It’s great fun. Some of our friends are interested in 4 photography too, so they take pictures as the stars move 5 across the sky. We usually take 6 sandwiches with us, and something hot to drink. In winter we take a curry or a 7 stir-fry because it’s a long night and it can be very cold. But I’d rather do an 8 open-air activity than stay inside. The only problem with my hobby is the British weather. Sometimes the club has to cancel a trip because it’s too rainy to see anything. Maybe in the future I can go 9 abroad and watch stars in the desert.

Anyway, what clubs you are in at school?

Dominic

Explanation:

To answer this type of question, we must look for clues in the text. Most of the times, the text will provide a definition or explanation of the word you must use. That happens, for instance, with number 4 above. We know we are supposed to use "photography" because the following sentence speaks of taking pictures. The text may also provide you with antonyms (words that have opposite meanings). That is what happens with number 8. We complete with "open-air" because the speaker does not like to "stay inside". Finally, we can also look for easy associations. For instance, in number 1, the most logical word to use with "magazines" is "read", because that is usually what we do with a magazine.

1. war machines and weapons.

"It had an iron frame... which came from the losing army's war machines."

2. The statue was huge is your best answer choice.

After all, the statue was 110 feet tall, which is quite a feat for a Ancient civilization.

3. Knees.

In the story, the statue snapped at the knees in 226 B.C.E because of an earthquake. This can typically suggest that it is the weakest part, especially as there were large amount of weight on top of it, and the strain of the sea's force as well as the weight from above weakened the area, making it the weakest part.

4. The statue of liberty is "a few feet taller", which suggests, as Helios is 110 feet tall, that the best answer is B) 120 feet. However, historically this is false. The Statue of Liberty is actually 305 feet, but for the sake of the question B) is your best answer.

5.  They did not want to offend Helios by rebuilding the statue after it fell.  Note: "An Egyptian king offered money to rebuild the statue, but the people of Rhodes said no. The people did not want to offend Helios again."

Answer:

Clare elbowed Joe as he chuckled again.

"Ouch, that hurt!" Joe grunted jokingly.

Clare rolled her eyes in response. "Then don't suggest $tupid things!" she exclaimed, playing along.

"All i said was that we should be adventurous and try to put mayonnaise on our sandwiches. That's all. Nothing worth elbowing me for."

Clare walked to the refrigerator to get some more meat. "That is not adventurous, Joe. That is idi0tic."

Joe's face exclaimed everything he didn't say.

"Don't look at me as if you are in shock." Clare said, closing the door to the fridge.

Joe was incredulous. "You didn't even see me!"

"I didn't have too. Now, we are not bringing any sort of mayonnaise on this picnic. I'd like to keep my life thank you very much." Clare finished up packing everything in the picnic basket. She had it hanging on her arm and she was facing Joe. "Are you going to argue?" she asked defiantly.

Joe put his hands in the air and backed out of the door. "Nope," he said when he was a safe distance away from Clare.

She smirked, "that's what i thought."

hope this helps! Have a good day and be tiger fierce!! :)

Answer:

The hook for your essay often appears in the first sentence. (some examples of hooks can be a question, quote, e.t.c.) hope this helps :)

Explanation:

Answer:

The hook should be in the intro paragraph, usually being the first or second sentence.

Explanation:

This is because, when writing an essay, especially an informational essay, you want the reader to be interested in the essay they are reading from the get go. You could start with a quote from someone famous or even a popular book/magazine, concerning what you are going to write about; you could even make something up, though it must be clever.

Hope this helps you out!

Have a great day! ;)

Answer:

I absolutely want to live forever, and I wish every person I love felt the same way.

Explanation:

1. A paradoxical slowing of the population growth rate because people who live longer start having children later, enough later dampen the exponential effect of having children far more than the linear affect of not dying adds to the population.

2. Vast increase in productivity and wealth. Right now we have to acquire excess over our 40 productive years so we can survive our 20 declining ones. Imagine not having to store away the excess, not to be in the 20 year expensive declining phase. Huge free up in economics.

3. Right now war remains a reasonable choice when the risk is only 30 or so productive years of life. When it's 100s of productive years, few will want to take that risk.

I understand why others don't want to live forever. They have been conditioned to see it as hubris, as tied to evil, and as somehow a tradeoff against humanity. But these were stories. If you go back in your past and examine the stories you'll realize they were done by people with little interest in really understanding how these things would play out, just an interest in getting you scared enough to buy the book or movie ticket.

Hii, I hope you are well. :)

Honestly, I would not like to live forever.

Everything has a beginning and everything has an end, just for a reason.

A long life has its advantages, but also its disadvantages.

The advantage is that we would not die and we would live long, but do is it something that would make us happy..?

We would be old, of course.

Maybe, we would have our own health problems that we could not solve.

The world is a miracle, today everything in the world is happening.

We were all created on this earth to live, and so died and returned to the creator.

In my imagination, world would be much more beautiful if we all lived long, we would not lose those closest to us, we would not worry about death, disease and everything else on earth.. but when I understand better, let us surrender to fate.

This is my most honest opinion.

I hope it helped, have a nice day!!
