Give the critical analysis of the poem “As I Grew
Older.”

Answers

SUMMARY:

Langston Hughes ‘As I Grew Older’ begins about a dream that the poet had ‘long time ago.’ The poet says his dream, bright as the sun, was right in front of him until a wall rose between him and his dream. The poet is an old man now and he is thinking about his dream which he dreamt long time ago. He thinks he has almost forgotten his dream. He remembers that his dream was not fulfilled as a strong barrier was created by his fellow white people who will not let his dream come true. The wall seems to grow forever and ever and it has become it has become so taller that it ‘rose until it touched the sky.’ The dream which was as bright as the sun has now turned dark. The wall has become a long dark shadow and has been blocking his dream. The dream being replaced by a shadow, the poet has become black.

The poet lies down beside the shadow which means he feels defeated and helpless. He finds that his dream is no longer above him and so he feels vanquished. Instead of his dreams, he finds the ‘thick wall’ and the ‘shadow’ above him. A plausible interpretation can be that the dream of freedom and independence is no longer real for the blacks and it has been overshadowed by the wall created by the fellow white people.

‘Dark hands’ refers to the poet’s own hands, the color of his skin, who will be able to ‘break through the wall’ and ‘find his dream.’

The poet wants to break the wall and shatter the darkness that is keeping him from attending his dream. He wants to break the shadow into thousand lights of sun and thousands of whirling dreams.

ANALYSIS:

THEME: The poem is in negative effects of racism, prejudice and discrimination. It is a comment on any form of racial oppression where one is unable to achieve their dreams, whether it is because of age, gender, nationality or religion. The poem puts up a message that we should believe in ourselves and stand up against the unjust society and rise above any sort of discrimination.

what are two quotes from Night by Elie Wiesel and what do they mean?
chapters 1 and 2

Answers

Answer:

Quote 1: Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed. Never shall I forget that smoke. Never shall I forget the little faces of the children, whose bodies I saw turned into wreaths of smoke beneath a silent blue sky.

Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever.

Never shall I forget that nocturnal silence which deprived me, for all eternity, of the desire to live. Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust. Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never.

Quote 2

“Where is God? Where is He?” someone behind me asked. ..

For more than half an hour [the child in the noose] stayed there, struggling between life and death, dying in slow agony under our eyes. And we had to look him full in the face. He was still alive when I passed in front of him. His tongue was still red, his eyes were not yet glazed.

Behind me, I heard the same man asking:

“Where is God now?”

“Where is He? Here He is—He is hanging here on this gallows. . . .”

After the Egyptians crushed cut cane and captured the juice, they boiled and strained the liquid, let it settle, then strained it again. The cane juice was now poured into molds with holes in the bottom, so that all the liquid could drain out, leaving only a powder. That powder was then mixed with milk and boiled again. After one round of these steps, the process was repeated all over again. As a result of all this effort and care, Egypt was known for the "whitest and purest" sugar.

Which statement best summarizes this passage?

In 1800, Napoleon led his reserve army across the Alps into Italy to fight Austrian forces that had laid siege to Genoa. Although Genoa had fallen by the time Napoleon had reached it, the crossing led to a series of important military victories for Napoleon. Review the portraits of Napoleon's historic crossing of the Alps. Consider how the artists use light and color to create mood. How does the use of color create contrasting moods in the two paintings?

Answers

Answer:

pues es decir estoy teniendo un dia gris muchas veces son colores frios por eso los colores son sentimientos por decirlo asi en algunas escuelas de estados unidos no dejan que los estudiantes  escriban con negro o rojo por que muchas veces los deprime asi que los colore son una forma de expresarse

Explanation:

Napoleon Crossing the Alps is any of five versions of an oil on canvas equestrian portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte painted by the French artist Jacques-Louis.

How does the use of color create contrasting moods in the two paintings?

Napoleon's two paintings depict two different faces of his personality. The painting by David shows Napoleon imposing, victorious on his horse, exuding confidence and prosperity.

This painting shows Napoleon's face that was unbeatable in his victories and had the strength and elegance of a great leader.

Due to the fact that the paintings portray a view of heroism and victory in terms of the atmosphere and feeling that it gives off, one would assume that the outcome of these battles were a positive one, given the light in which they are painted and portrayed within.

Indirect characterization of Jen finch in any chapter 1-31

Answers

Answer:

Methods of characterization become even more important when the author needs to show a character's growth. Let's take a look at Atticus' son, Jem Finch. Jem grows from a game-playing child to a mature teenager questioning and struggling with the hypocrisies of the adults around him. His actions and words show the evolution of his maturity.

At first, Jem perpetuates the rumors and superstitions surrounding the Radley household:

Jem gave a reasonable description of Boo: Boo was about six-and-a-half feet tall, judging from his tracks; he dined on raw squirrels and any cats he could catch, that's why his hands were bloodstained - if you ate an animal raw, you could never wash the blood off.

In telling Atticus that Dill has run away from home, Jem shows the ability to weigh the consequences of a secret:

Dill's eyes flickered at Jem, and Jem looked at the floor. Then he rose and broke the remaining code of our childhood. He went out of the room and down the hall. 'Atticus,' his voice was distant, 'can you come here a minute, sir?' [...] Jem was standing in a corner of the room, looking like the traitor he was. 'Dill, I had to tell him,' he said. 'You can't run three hundred miles off without your mother knowin'.

Finally, Jem shows maturity in critically thinking about the underbelly of prejudice:

If there's just one kind of folks, why can't they get along with each other? If they're all alike, why do they go out of their way to despise each other? Scout, I think I'm beginning to understand something. I think I'm beginning to understand why Boo Radley's stayed shut up in the house all this time... it's because he wants to stay inside.

Many countries believe that sending criminals to prison can reduce crime. Do you agree or disagree?

Answers

Answer:

I will write more than a paragraph for you so you can get a bunch of ideas and since I'm only getting 5 points please keep in mind we can't just write essays for +5 points hehe

EDIT: Keep in mind that I can't use certain words because brainly won't let me post the answer so instead I say *heinous crimes*

My answer is:                            

While in most countries government systems believe that imprisonment will reduce the crime rate. I believe that's not always the case.  Imprisonment will not completely solve the issue in itself and most cases are different. I think depending on the crime that was committed prison time may or may not be necessary. We also have to keep in mind the criminals history. Imprisonment is definitely necessary for criminals that committed ravishment, murder or some heinous crime (that's my opinion).

Though giving regular prison inmates the opportunity for higher education will reduce the amount of criminals there are in society. Statistically most criminals have a lack of education (though there are exceptions) most prisoners either come from families that are low-income or haven't received higher education. I do believe some individuals not willing to get a higher education have a lack of income, lack of support or have problems because of all that. There are also lack of resources in less developed countries. This makes some people steal, commit fraud or even some other heinous crimes in order to either make money or survive.

Explanation  

If I'm being honest living in poverty shouldn't stop someone from attaining a higher education. I think MOST living in less developed countries that don't have those opportunities (lack of educational resources) or unable to pay for college continue to live in poverty because of that. Actually I'm sure most would love to prosper in the right way and attain higher education. Higher education is the key to getting OUT of poverty.

On a clean sheet of paper, make at least 3-5 PARAGRAPH ESSAY GUIDED by the
following questions:

1. How do you practice respect to people who are very different from you?
2. When was the last time you struggled to respect other people? Cite your personal
experience.
3. How do you react if others are not respecting you?​

Answers

Answer:

1 – Begin with an open mind.

Be willing to hear opposing opinions—even outrageous ones—and learn about the worldview of people you don’t agree with.

A sure way to shut down a conversation before it ever gets started is to express judgment or condescension. But if you are willing to listen, to genuinely hear the other person, conversations take place. Relationships grow.

If your goal is to genuinely show respect to others — even those with whom you disagree — treat each person you encounter with the love and dignity they deserve. Listen to them—not to change their mind, but to learn more about who they are. This will make them feel respected and open more doors to peace than you can imagine

3-Being calm after being disrespected is a power. You should not vent out, rather, you stay calm, listen to the other party and after, talk to them and kindly ask them to be more respectful and considerate when talking to someone.

The question above is intended to assess your ability to write an essay and your perception of respect and tolerance. For that reason, I can't write the essay for you, but I was showing you how to write it.

First, you must reflect and answer the questions shown above. They will serve as the foundation for your arguments and will guide your essay.

After answering all these questions, you can write the essay as follows:

Introduction: Show what respect is between people and how that respect is important in society.

Body: Write two paragraphs. In these paragraphs, you will show the ways you practice respect between people, times when you had to respect other people. The importance of these events and your experience with moments of disrespect. Also, show how disrespect is harmful to society.

Conclusion: Present your final opinion on how society should act in relation to respect, tolerance and peace.

According to the terms of the federal statute, the first national achievement test was scheduled for administration five years from the effective date of the statute. After reviewing then-current levels of public school student performance, the officials of a state became concerned that several of its public school districts would lose their federal funding after the administration of the first national achievement test.
