It might seem like a lot to do, but, you will get a lot of points!!!!! I need you to help me figure out, the theme is developed for the story "if" (which is below) and it will need to have specific evidence from the poem. And then can you explain how they are developed in "cant" (which is also below) And then can you summarize how the two poems and similar and/or different. Thank You! :3Can’t
by Edgar Guest
Can’t is the worst word that’s written or spoken;
Doing more harm here than slander and lies;
On it is many a strong spirit broken,
And with it many a good purpose dies.
It springs from the lips of the thoughtless each morning
And robs us of courage we need through the day:
It rings in our ears like a timely sent warning
And laughs when we falter and fall by the way.
Can’t is the father of feeble endeavor,
The parent of terror and halfhearted work;
It weakens the efforts of artisans clever,
And makes of the toiler an indolent shirk.
It poisons the soul of the man with a vision,
It stifles in infancy many a plan;
It greets honest toiling with open derision
And mocks at the hopes and the dreams of a man.
Can’t is a word none should speak without blushing;
To utter it should be a symbol of shame;
Ambition and courage it daily is crushing;
It blights a man’s purpose and shortens his aim.
Despise it with all of your hatred of error;
Refuse it the lodgment it seeks in your brain;
Arm against it as a creature of terror,
And all that you dream of you someday shall gain.
Can’t is the word that is foe to ambition
An enemy ambushed to shatter your will;
Its prey is forever the man with a mission
And bows but to courage and patience and skill.
Hate it, with hatred that’s deep and undying,
For once it is welcomed ’twill break any man;
Whatever the goal you are seeking, keep trying
And answer this demon by saying: “I can.” End

If
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: “Hold on!”
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings—nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run—
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son! End

1 The use of home remedies has a long history. Natural home remedies have been around hundreds, and in some cases, thousands of years. They come from folk traditions of medicine and therapy. Before modern medicine, treatments were passed down from generation to generation. These treatments typically included the use of native plants, such as flowers, herbs, fruits, and vegetables. Traditional medicine is based on skills and practices developed through the experiences of people long before modern medicine came into existence.
2 Today, the use of home remedies is on the rise. Many people are concerned with potential side effects of modern medicines, so they are turning to traditional medicine for alternative treatment. In some areas of the world, folk medicine never went away. For example, in some rural communities in Asia and Africa, more than 80 percent of the population relies on traditional treatment as their primary form of health care.
3 Herbalism, ethnomedicine, and medical anthropology are fields of modern medicine that are dedicated to the study of traditional medicine. Some of these methods have been proven to be effective by modern research. Much of this research focuses on the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory traits of many common plants.
4 Home remedies are inexpensive and natural options for many medical issues. Most home remedies are not medically proven, so one should always consult a doctor for any medical issue. However, using folk medicine to help relieve certain symptoms can help in some situations. For example, the following home remedies are still practiced and have become common in modern culture.
5 Chicken soup has long been a home remedy for relieving the symptoms of upper respiratory infections. Honey, garlic, and tea have long been used in the treatment of cold and flu symptoms. Honey can help relieve a cough, and garlic can help a sore throat. Garlic has antimicrobial properties that also fight pain and irritation. Linden flower tea can help reduce a fever. The tea stimulates the part of the brain that controls temperature. It also makes the body sweat, which can reduce a fever.
6 For stomach-related problems, ginger and peppermint are common home remedies. Ginger is used to treat nausea. It works best to infuse warm water with ginger; then strain it and freeze it. Nibbling on the ginger ice chips can help relieve nausea. Peppermint is also used to treat an upset stomach. It helps kill bacteria in the gut that causes bloating and discomfort.
7 Willow tree bark tea helps get rid of headaches. It contains similar chemicals as the pain relievers in aspirin. The gel from the aloe vera plant helps soothe the pain of a burn. The gel protects the nerve endings on the skin from the air. Foot odor can be banished by soaking feet in vinegar and water, or in black tea. Both treatments kill smelly bacteria.
8 Every culture has a tradition of home remedies. People have trusted folk medicine for centuries. The fact that many of these remedies cannot be scientifically proven doesn't seem to matter to the people who say they work.


In which two ways does the third paragraph contribute to the development of ideas in the passage?
It supports the ideas of the second paragraph by using modern medical terms to explain the useful properties of home remedies.
It establishes the idea that home remedies are rooted in traditional knowledge.
It cites modern research to demonstrate the effectiveness of home remedies.
It explains the benefits of folk medicine and home remedies in curing serious illnesses.
It reinforces the idea in the fourth paragraph that home remedies are inexpensive by emphasizing the healing properties of

can someone tell if this is good and what i should add to my last paragraph?

I believe all children should have free education because some parents can't afford to pay for their kids to go to school. Children that wouldn't be able to go to school like other children wouldn't have the same learning opportunities. Kids could also be having some situations that are happening in their family. If there is no free education where will the children with no money go in life?
Free education is important to me because it could help children with no money or very little money get somewhere in life. They could become a doctor or a college professor, those are just examples though a student could become whatever they choose to be. Having free education would also allow children to become independent adults and be able to solve problems, or even become a dependent adult working for the government. The students would also have more tools with basic knowledge that would help them face problems that occur in their life. It can also help the family save money if they have very little.
In conclusion I believe that all children should have free education world wide. It could help a country look better and let children have more learning opportunities or let them become an independent adult or a dependent adult.

But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only,
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered -
Till I scarcely more than muttered 'Other friends have flown before -
On the morrow, he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.'
Then the bird said, 'Nevermore.'

excerpt from a Native American folktale:

When Raven saw the Sun, Moon and stars, and freshwater hanging on the sides of Eagle's lodge, he knew what he should do. He watched for his chance to seize them when no one was looking. He stole all of them, and a brand of fire also, and flew out of the longhouse through the smoke hole. As soon as Raven got outside he hung the Sun up in the sky. It made so much light that he was able to fly far out to an island in the middle of the ocean. When the Sun set, he fastened the Moon up in the sky and hung the stars around in different places.
