Use the following excerpt to answer the question.
"To help manage the national government, monarchs hired loyal civil servants typically born in the towns and educated at local universities. Their perspectives were national, not regional. The state, in the person of the monarch, now had sovereignty, or the utmost authority in decision making and in maintaining order. Everyone, including the nobles, was subordinate to that authority. . . .With sovereignty, the monarch now had the right to make laws for the entire nation and all its people."
How did the establishment of nations expand the power and reach of government?
Answer:
The laws and policies of national governments affected greater numbers of people.
Explanation:
Remember, from the excerpt after telling us the monarch was the only one with authority to make laws, we are told that, "Everyone, including the nobles, was subordinate to that authority,...With sovereignty, the monarch now had the right to make laws for the entire nation and all its people."
In other words, we can say that the type of national government that existed under this system of government was one where everyone or a greater number of people were affected by the laws and policies instituted.
Match each type of figurative language to its example. Match Term Definition A Simile A) Life is like a box of chocolates. D Personification B) He ran for an eternity. E Allusion C) Ping pong was his life. C Hyperbole D) The world is just waiting for you to go enjoy it. B Metaphor E) Maybe Forrest Gump had it right about life. Points earned on this question: 3
Answer:
A. Simile ➡️ Life is like a box of chocolates.
B. Metaphor ➡️Ping pong was his life.
C. Hyperbole➡️He ran for an eternity.
D. Personification ➡️The world is just waiting for you to go enjoy it.
E. Allusion ➡️Maybe Forrest Gump had it right about life.
Explanation:
I have been able to successfully match the figurative terms to their examples.
Simile is a figurative term which uses "as" and "like" to compare things. Metaphor is a figure of speech which actually explains or describes something in a way that is not literally true but actually helps to make a comparison.
Hyperbole is a figure of speech which tends to exaggerate and overemphasize something in order to get noticed. It is usually used to overly stress something. Just like this example: "He ran for an eternity"
Personification is a figure of speech which attributes human qualities to a thing, idea or an animal. Just like the above example on personification; attributing the world to a person that can wait. While allusion is used to directly or indirectly refer an object or situation.
To explain, in the sestet, how he feels after discovering Homer, Keats uses two ___
A. Metaphors
B. Apostrophes
C. Similes

Answer:
A. The names of the winning couple are announced—Ryan and Cora. Cora cries tears of joy. --> 5. resolution
B. The crowd cheers the couples on the dance floor. Ryan and Cora are dancing well, but Cora feels stabs of pain. Still, she is determined not to let Ryan down. --> 3. climax

Explanation:
Exposition is the very beginning a story, where the author introduces the characters, the setting and other elements or pieces of information that will contextualize the story.
Rising action takes place after the introduction, the exposition. It is usually an event in a plot that creates the condition for conflicts to appear.
Climax is the moment of most tension in the plot, when the biggest conflict needs to be solved by the main characters.
Falling action is the opposite of rising action, taking place after the climax and being characterized by a decrease in tension. We can already see where things are going to end.
Finally, resolution is the conclusion of the story, its closing.
Let's put each part of the story in its correct place so that you can see how the plot unfolds according to the explanation above:
C. Ryan and Cora walk to the school gym. They are ready to compete in the dance contest. --> 1. exposition

How are the Novel and Movie different from each other in The Boy in The Striped Pajamas?
Answer:well in the movie it leaves out some parts that are in the novel pleas tell me if I need to be more specific
Explanation:
There are two major differences, the ending and the POV of the stories.
In the book, everything is told from Bruno’s perspective and he really knows nothing about the horrors of the camps and the Holocaust. In the movie, its told by a 3rd person POV.
In the ending of the book, no one knows what happened to Bruno. Elsa and Gretel head home but weeks later they find Bruno’s clothes near the camp. In the movie, Gretel and Elsa have a huge search through the camp to try and find Bruno. At the end they find his clothes and a hole dug under the fence, that’s how they found out he died.
There were a lot of other changes. One was, in the movie Lieutenant Kotler was sent away because Brunos dad found out his father fled the country at the start of the war, making him potential unfaithful to the Nazis. In the book, it was implied that Elsa was having an affair with Kotler. Bruno’s dad found out about the affair and sent him away.

Should graffiti be illegal, yes or no? Give reasons or evidence to support your claim.
Answer:
I do believe graffiti should be illegal.
Explanation:
The official definition of graffiti is, "writing or drawings scribbled, scratched, or sprayed illicitly on a wall or other surface in a public place". Meaning that graffiti is a form of vandalism. And because vandalism is illegal, I don't think any other forms of it should be considered 'ok'. That is my opinion on the subject. Note my 'opinion'.
Answer:
Graffiti that hasn't been approved should be illegal. It cost money to get the graffiti covered or removed. It is considered vandalism anyway when someone pains or draws on someone else property without their approval. So, yes, graffiti should be illegal IF it hasn't been approved by the county or the owners or county area etc.

The phrase, "Closes its wings and shrinks, a frightened bird" is an example of
A
metaphor.
В
paradox.
С
simile.
D
euphemism.
Answer:
Option B
Explanation:
Let's use process of elimination to find this answer. It's not option A because a metaphor is comparing two things without using the words like or as. It's not option C because simile is comparing two things WHILE using like or as. It's not option D because euphemism is usually a statement that seems to be too harsh. Therefore the answer is option B or "paradox" and that's because paradox is a statement that while seems to be false through investigation can be proven true.
Hope this helps.
The answer is B. Paradox
The answer is option B or "paradox" and that's because paradox is a statement that while seems to be false thorough investigation can be proven true.

Write about 250 to 350 words.
My company, General Dexterity, is a technology company that works with the creation of machines that can replace human labor in factories and make production faster, more efficient and more dynamic. To achieve these objectives, we have a team of programmers and engineers who have been working daily to develop software and hardware capable of leading our company to progress and we have achieved, our company has been successful and we have achieved good results in our projects.
However, something has worried me about our team of programmers. After many observations, I discovered that our programmers are being subjected to abusive working hours that are harmful to their health and productivity. Programmers are working on abusive hours, which promotes poor quality food and rest. At all times, I see them extremely tired and unmotivated, although they continue to do their jobs excellently. This has worried me, because if our programmers continue with these routines they will have health problems and our productivity will decrease.
After thinking about it, I decided that some changes should be made to improve the quality of our team. First, I decided that the team of programmers will be divided into sub-teams that will work on different shifts and on different projects, to promote rest. In addition, I stipulated that all programmers must have a schedule for meals. Nevertheless, the deadline for the completion of the projects will increase by three days.
I believe that the changes will be beneficial for the company and that the result will be very promising.
