Women of Adamant, fair neophytes—
Who thirst for such instruction as we give,
Attend, while I unfold a parable.
The elephant is mightier than Man,
Yet Man subdues him. Why? The elephant
Is elephantine everywhere but here (tapping her forehead)
And Man, whose brain is to the elephant’s
As Woman’s brain to Man’s—(that’s rule of three),—
Conquers the foolish giant of the woods,
As Woman, in her turn, shall conquer Man.

Select the correct description for the line of poetry below “Little Lamb, who made thee?"
two accented syllables
five feet
O six feet
iambic pentameter
Otrochaic trimeter
The correct answer is E. Trochaic trimeter
Explanation:
In poems, verses usually follow a strict structure of accented/ unstressed syllables known as metric. In the case of the trochaic trimeter, this is composed of three (trimeter) trochees, which are the combination of one stressed syllable and one unstressed syllable. This means in total there are 6 syllables and three trochees (poetic feet).
This occurs in the line “Little Lamb, who made thee?" because there are six syllables "Li/ttle/Lamb /who/made/thee?" and each pair of syllables includes a stressed syllable and one unstressed syllable or three trochees Li/ttle/Lamb /who/made/thee? (stressed syllables are in bold)
Imagine that you are writing an e-mail to a government official to ask him or her to provide information to your town about how to conserve water. Which sentence uses an appropriate tone for an e-mail to a government official?
Answer:
It would benefit many people to learn how to help protect our environment.
Explanation:
Writing a letter to a government official entails a formal form of letter writing, or in this case an email, which requires the use of formal language. Such documents or communicating mediums are required for a formal setting such as a government official.
And in writing a letter to the official requesting information about how to conserve water, the language used will be in a formal tone, presenting a good and persuasive emotional appeal. There is no space for an informal tone or speech, for it is an official letter addressed to a government employee. Thus, the use of words such as "we were thinking you could give us", "You would be the coolest", or even demeaning words such as "not sure how much you know about conserving water" cannot be used.
Thus, the correct approach is to use words such as "it would benefit many people to learn how to help protect our environment".
Answer:
it would benefit many people to know how to help protect our environment.

Answer:
1- Perseus's grandfather tries to drown him
2- Perseus takes the eye of the Grey Woman
3- Perseus cuts off Medusa's head
4- Perseus rescues Andromada
5- Perseus turns Polydeuces to stone
Explanation:
Acrisius, the king of Argos was told by an oracle that he would die at the hand of his grandson, and to prevent this, he locked his daughter up where no male can have access to her but the god Zeus somehow came and left the girl pregnant. When the King found out, he was furious and tried to kill both mother and daughter.
They both survived, and that boy became Persues who ended up taking the eye of the Grey Woman, cut off Medusa's head, rescued Andromada and finally turned Polydeuces to stone.
write a story which end with the word: "had i know, i wouldn't have believed him."
Answer:
That sounds like the beginning is foreshadowing the ending
Explanation:
Example "Had I known that he would try to kill me, I wouldn't have believed him". Using that as the beginning draws the reader in with questions like who is trying to kill her? Why is he trying? Why wouldn't she believe him?
And then you flashback to answer those questions around the story and then at the ending come back to the "Had I known, I wouldn't have believed him".
Does not have to be a killer? It can be a secret that he has. Let me know if you need additional ideas.
Answer:
Explanation:
When she was about five years old, her mother started to have a relationship with a man - a man she refers to as "Dan" in this story. Rosavella enjoyed spending time with Dan. He would play with her and her sister, buy them gifts and join them on vacations. At first, Dan treated Rosavella and her sister as if they were his own children, and Rosavella's mother was so happy to have found a father figure for them - a perfect family.
Overtime, Rosavella's relationship with Dan dramatically changed. He would come into her room late at night, and he would do inappropriate things to her. He would stare at her, touch her arms and waist, and make her feel incredibly uncomfortable. But because Rosavella was so young, she believed Dan when he told her he was just tucking her in and saying goodnight.
One specific time, Dan took Rosavella into his room. He put her on the bed and began touching her inappropriately. She screamed out and squealed so loudly that her sister ran in, but by the time she entered the room, Dan began tickling her to cover up his horrendous actions.
Eventually, Rosavella's sister found out what Dan was really doing. Her mom was completely devastated and took Rosavella to the police station, and they soon realized that what Dan was doing was illegal. They went to trial, but because there wasn't enough evidence, Dan was able to go free.
Rosavella's experience with abuse deeply affected her. She received counselling, but it caused her to have panic attacks and nightmares. She wishes that she had been more aware of what Dan was doing to her when she was younger. When she looks back on the past, she could say to herself, "I was hurt by someone I thought I could trust." However, she is taking a positive approach by vowing to help other people who may be going through a similar situation. She is strong and resilient, and she wants to share her story with the world to educate others.Now she wishes that she hadn't trusted him.

Vaping is not good for the human body
I said that vaping is not good because it puts bad stuff in your lungs like nickel and lead. I could prove this because it was on a spotify ad.
I learned that when you vape, it's like spraying hair spray in your lungs. And it also went with my thing about toxic metals.
Jeff sat next to Bob and Jeff said that vaping is like inhaling all the good vitamins for the day. Bob then said no, it isn't like that.
I then said that vaping could give you vitamins, but maybe not the good ones that you don't want in your body.
Bob also had seen the spotify ad about vaping and he looked up that it was not an actual vape monster in it and that it was just there to represent that vaping is like a silent and small monster that is not good for you.
Jeff said that the monster was real, but he didn't have any evidence to prove it was real, but Bob did.
All the evidence that Bob had made it really easy to know which is a better thing to do, which was to vape, or not to vape.
I made sure the language was appropriate by looking at it and making sure everything was spelled correctly and the correct grammar was used. I used formal language.
The goths crossed into the Roman territory earlier than the franks. What is the elliptical adverb clause?
Answer:
'than the Franks' is the elliptical adverb clause.
Explanation:
A adverb clause is a dependent clause that serves as an adverb in a statement. An adverb, in a statement, is used as a modifier of a verb, an adjective, and another adverb. Thus, an adverb clause serves as an modifier of a verb, an adjective, and another adverb in a sentence.
An elliptical adverb clause is the one in which the words are implied. In such clauses, the words are left intentionally to be implied.
In the given sentence, the elliptical adverb clause is 'than the Franks' in which the words that are left to implied mean that the Goths crossed into the Roman territory than the Franks crossed the territory.
Thus the correct answer is 'than the Franks.'

The answer is not A because a semicolon is used to link or join together two independent clauses that are closely relating in thought
*A clause is a group of words that contain a subject and a predicate.
The answer is not C either because there is an omission of the comma after 'families'.

The fight with the monsters and dragons makes it a mythical battle.

"Father,” began Nnaemeka suddenly, "I have come to ask for forgiveness.” "Forgiveness? For what, my son?” he asked in amazement. "It’s about this marriage question.” "Which marriage question.” "I can’t—we must—I mean it is impossible for me to marry Nweke’s daughter.” "Impossible? Why?” asked his father. "I don’t love her.” "Nobody said you did. Why should you?” he asked. "Marriage today is different . . .” "Look here, my son,” interrupted his father, "nothing is different. What one looks for in a wife are a good character and a Christian background.” Nnaemeka saw there was no hope along the present line of argument.
