This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find them online:
A. She can place the phrase "from Texas" after "Shareese's".
B. She can place "from Texas" at the very beginning of the sentence.
C. She can place the phrase "from Texas" before the word "graduation".
D. She can place the phrase "from Texas" after the word "grandmother".
Answer:
To correct the misplace modifier:
D. She can place the phrase "from Texas" after the word "grandmother".
Explanation:
A misplaced modifier is a word or phrase that is placed incorrectly in a sentence. Because of that, it changes the meaning of the sentence, making it ambiguous, that is, causing more than one interpretation of the sentence to be possible.
In the sentence we are analyzing here, "from Texas" is the misplaced modifier. Its position leads to two possible meanings: the grandmother is from Texas, or Shareese is graduating from Texas (University).
To correct the sentence, we must change the position of the modifier. However, we can not simply place it anywhere. If we do, the sentence will not make sense. When we try different places for it, we can see that after the word "grandmother" is the best one. It clarifies that "from Texas" indicates where the grandmother is coming from:
Shareese's grandmother from Texas came to her graduation.

Which genre uses techniques such as figurative language to explore thoughts about a subject in a concise way?
O lyric poem
O novel
O tragedy
O expository essay
Answer:
The answer is a lyric poem.
Explanation:
A lyric poem is short, highly musical verse that conveys powerful feelings. The poet may use rhyme, meter, or other literary devices to create a song-like quality. A lyric poem is a private expression of emotion by a single speaker. For example, American poet Emily Dickinson described inner feelings when she wrote her lyric poem that begins, "I felt a Funeral, in my Brain, / And Mourners to and fro."
Song lyrics often begin as lyric poems. In ancient Greece, lyric poetry was, in fact, combined with music played on a U-shaped stringed instrument called a lyre. Through words and music, great lyric poets like Sappho (ca. 610–570 B.C.) poured out feelings of love and yearning.
Lyric poetry also has no prescribed form. Sonnets, villanelles, rondeaus, and pantoums are all considered lyric poems. So are elegies, odes, and most occasional (or ceremonial) poems. When composed in free verse, lyric poetry achieves musicality through literary devices such as alliteration, assonance, and anaphora.
What is the theme of the seven ages of man
Answer:
Futility of Age Milestones
Explanation:
“The Seven Ages of Man” develops a theme of the futility of age milestones. It is well known to Shakespearean and Greek philosophy scholars that these age milestones correspond to the Greek concept of the seven stages of life.
Steven Ainsley in a recent commentary rightly observes that "making the conscious decision to avoid jury duty has immediate ramifications, all of them negative." He insists that "the message we send to our children is that civic responsibility is a trivial part of our lives, easily dismissed, and that there is little value to the notion of the importance of community."
Hi. Although you submitted a text, you did not submit any questions related to it. This prevents me from giving you any answers. However, when searching for your text on the internet, I was able to find it in a question that asked for the central idea of this text to be explained. If that's the case with your question, I hope the answer below can help you. If this is not the case with your question, the explanation below will make you better understand the text above, which will make your search for answers easier.
The main idea of a text is the message that the author expects you to understand after reading. After reading the text above, we can see that the main idea is the idea of how participation in a jury should be understood as something important and essential in our lives as citizens. This is because, according to the interpretation of the text, the author shows that the participation of a jury gives an example to children and young people, about how this participation is important and it is a social duty that allows the exercise of justice in the country. This is a duty to the country, society and citizens. Thus, when a citizen refuses the call to participate in a jury, he erases all the importance that this act means for everyone's life and acts as if the jury were something trivial, setting a bad example for the next generations.
Answer:
People in America try their best to get out of serving on a jury. Mr. Ainsley said we are creating a domino effect with our children showing them that our civil duty is not important. Our community is at stake if we do not serve and show support of our laws.

Answer:
the answer is A. am allusion im pretty sure. hope this helps
Explanation:
The author conveys the joy in the excerpt through the use of an allusion. The correct option is a.
What is an allusion?Allusion is a figure of speech, in which an object or circumstance from unrelated context is referred to covertly or indirectly. It is left to the audience to make the direct connection.
Where the connection is directly and explicitly stated as opposed to indirectly implied by the author, it is instead usually termed a reference. In the arts, a literary allusion puts the alluded text in a new context under which it assumes new meanings and negotiations. It is not possible to predetermine the nature of all the new meanings and inter-textual patterns that an allusion will generate. Literary allusion is closely related to parody and pastiche, which are also "text-linking" literary devices.
In a wider, more informal context, an allusion is a passing or casually short statement indicating broader meaning.

Excerpt from Changing the Curriculum
Natalie Stewart
In the hot, stuffy meeting room, cheers and applause broke through the oppressive air. Teachers and faculty members were
sitting around several large tables, looking up at Randall with admiration. Randall was relieved that the meeting was over.
His thoughts drifted back to the start of the school year.
Randall's fourth period English class seemed to drag on forever. The assigned reading list his teacher had handed out in the
beginning of class was a huge disappointment to this book lover, the curriculum was stale like week-old bread. After
analyzing the list at the dinner table, his parents remarked that they had read many of the books assigned to Randall's class.
Teachers were subjecting today's students to a thirty-year-old reading list! This didn't make any sense to Randall. Though he
understood the value of classical literature, Randall felt that the curriculum needed a better balance of old and new.
The author uses words like stuffy, oppressive, and stale in order to
A)
make the scenes more realistic.
B)
add to the sense of excitement.
C) to make the article more colorful.
D)create sympathy for Randall’s cause.
