Read the excerpt from "The Legacy of Billy Mason." The pages of the scrapbook were filled with clippings from newspapers, and they were all about Billy Mason and his team—the games they played and the plays he made. At the very end there was an article about Billy himself, how he was hardworking and courageous and how, in his rookie year, he was injured in a home-plate collision. He held onto the ball, won the game, and never played again. He took one for the team. Billy closed the scrapbook. This was his father's scrapbook, left here in his grandmother’s house. Catcher Billy Mason was his father's hero. He had given his son his hero’s name as a kind of legacy. Billy held the scrapbook in his hands as he went downstairs to have his first real conversation with Grandma M. Compared with Billy, Billy's father would have most likely reacted to finding the scrapbook by becoming angry. proud. scared. anxious.

Answer:

When I was eighteen I decided I wanted to travel alone. I bought a ticket to Australia, I packed my bags and I left for the airport. I had to do a scale in Italy and then I had to take the flight there to go to Australia. I had to wait four more hours and I was sleepy so I decided to take a nap and set an alarm to wake up in time for my flight. But I didn't. I missed it and I got stranded in the airport for one whole day. It was the first thing that went wrong but not the only one. When I finally arrived to Australia, I had a lot of bad experiences. I felt lonely, I lost money and I missed home. However, I also made friends for life, I discovered amazing landscapes and I had the time of my life. So, nevertheless, it was my best experience.

Explanation:

To complete this exercise, you have to write a story that ends with the line given. Since the line has the word "nevertheless" included, you should write about something that was bad or went wrong but ended up being "the best experience". It's important to follow the rules given, which are the word limit and the different parts of a story.

- Why does the speaker name so many kinds of workers?

- What is the effect of these references?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Why does the speaker name so many kinds of workers?

In his poem "I Hear America Singing", Walt Whitman mentions several kinds of workers:  the mason, the carpenter, the seamstress, the shoemaker, and so on. The reason behind this is that the author is trying to make sure he is representing America's working class and its beautiful variety of professions in this poem. Of course, he cannot mention each and every profession there is, but he does speak of so many in an attempt to make workers feel represented, seen.

What is the effect of these references?

Those references value each individual's hard work. This poem is, after all, a celebration of each person's uniqueness, a homage to their building America with their own hands. Whitman wants to convey the message that it is the working class that makes this country a wonderful place to live in. It is their hard work that makes America such a beautiful nation.

B. Hermit thrushes and wood thrushes is a delight to hear.
C. The lark and the robin are loved for their music.
D. Sunflower seeds or corn attract a variety of birds.

Answers

Answer:

The sentence in which the verb agrees with the subject is:

C. The lark and the robin are loved for their music.

Explanation:

With just a couple of rules, we are able to answer this question easily. First, when we have a compound subject joined by "and", the verb should be plural, since it refers to both elements in the subject. That is why letters A and B are wrong. Letter C, however, does present a verb with a plural conjugation, which makes it correct.

When a compound subject is joined by "or", and one of the elements is plural, the verb will agree with the element that is nearer. Letter D is incorrect because "attract" should agree with "corn" and not "seeds".

The Dawn’s Awake
By Otto Leland Bohanan

The Dawn’s awake!
A flash of smoldering flame and fire
Ignites the East. Then, higher, higher,
O’er all the sky so gray, forlorn1,
The torch of gold is borne.

The Dawn’s awake!
The dawn of a thousand dreams and thrills.
And music singing in the hills
A paean2 of eternal spring.
Voices the new awakening.

The Dawn’s awake!
Whispers of pent-up harmonies,
With the mingled fragrance of the trees;
Faint snatches of half-forgotten song--
Fathers! Torn and numb,--
The boon of light we craved, awaited long,
Has come, has come!

1Pitifully sad and abandoned or lonely
2A song of praise or triumph

Directions: Identify the type of figurative language that best fits the bolded words or phrases. Then explain how each one helps develop imagery within the poem. Remember that your responses should be at least 3-5 sentences in length.

The Black Land
By Joseph Warren Beach

I will pough the land,
Turning up the black soil.
I will ride upon this heaving surface
As a boat rides upon the water.
Even as a boat
Cleaving the water with an eager keel,
I have run a furrow1
Straight across the ridges.

I will sow down this field,
Scattering gems.
With both hands will I scatter
Quivering emeralds out of a bottomless pouch.

As I tread the loam2
My feet sink deep.
The black earth embraces my ankles
And clings to my bent knees.

I sing as I go
Scattering emeralds.
The wind sings upon my lips,
And pearls stream off my neck and forehead.
I am bathed in a sweat of pearls.

Eyes straight forward
Rest on a brightening ultimate slope.

1A long narrow trench made in the ground by a plow.
2Soil with equal amounts of sand, silt, and clay.

Directions: Identify the type of figurative language that best fits the bolded words or phrases. Then explain how each one helps develop imagery within the poem. Remember that your responses should be at least 5-7 sentences in length.

I will ride upon this heaving surface / As a boat rides upon the water.

The black earth embraces my ankles / And clings to my bent knees.



And pearls stream off my neck and forehead. I am bathed in a sweat of pearls.

Is it acceptable to commit a crime at any point in life?

Answers

Answer:

uh...technically no...but as long as you dont get caught...

Explanation:

Answer:

First of all, I don't think that most people who commit crimes really think it's okay, especially in a general sense. Not even specifically to their circumstances, for the most part. I have personally had contact with many non-violent offenders and most have accepted, to some degree, that they are guilty of committing a crime.

So, yes in my opinion there absolutely are times when it is alright (even a natural duty in some cases ) to commit a crime, but only if one is motivated by self preservation or the preservation of others; however no one has a right to take the life of other innocent persons no matter what the motivation may be.
