Explanation:
In at least one hundred words, discuss how the British used religion as one of their methods of colonizing Africa in Things Fall Apart. Use evidence from the text to support your answer.
Explanation:
In order for cultural change to take place, the colonizers must begin by introducing their religion. They attempt to allay fears by coming on a platform of peace, but their ultimate goal is to fundamentally change the beliefs of the tribe.
And at last the locusts did descend. They settled on every tree and on every blade of grass; they settled on the roofs and covered the bare ground.
While the quote is a symbolic representation, it accurately reflects the arrival of the intruders who have every intention to take over the Igbo by introducing monotheistic religion and undermining the things that had previously been valued. We see Okonkwo and his son torn apart because Okonkwo cannot accept that his son has forsaken his tribe for Christianity. The tribe is in trouble, and Okonkwo knows there is nothing he can do to stop the death of all he holds dear, as is reflected in the following passage:
The white man is very clever. He came quietly and peaceably with his religion. We were amused at his foolishness and allowed him to stay. Now he has won our brothers, and our clan can no longer act like one. He has put a knife on the things that held us together and we have fallen apart.

Dear Julius,
I am happy to write to you today. How are you and the family?
This year's Independence celebration is the best I have experienced all my life. My school is the best and they gave me the best independence day experience. Every student in my school already anticipated that day because the items of the programme and the rehearsals are already proofs that the day was going to be awesome. The day came and brought no disappointment. There were several activities such as matchpast, tributes to National heroes, choreographies, dramas, to mention but a few. I took a very honorable role of reading the country's post independence history to the congregation. I was very elated to stand in front of such an august gathering.
Several notable personalities graced the occasion with their presence, people like the commissioner for youths and sport, commissioner for information and culture etc.
The speeches of the day were delivered by the proprietor of the school, who is a wonderful orator, and the commissioner for information and culture from whom I heard great words about this country that I never heard in time past. I wish you were a student in my school, you would have been a part of this wonderful event. Nevertheless, I wish to hear back from you on how the independence celebration was done in your school too.
Have a great week ahead my good friend.
Your friend,
Chris.
Answer:
Hi Heesal,
As you already knew that my school just celebrated our Independence day 2020 yesterday. I can’t stand telling you about that. We’ve had a great morning doing many activities with all of our teachers and friends. First of all, we saluted the flag and sang our national anthem. We then raised and lowered the flag, performed one-minute silence, you know, to show the respect for our ancestors who sacrificed for our peace today. After that, our principal made an excellent speech reminding us about the history and encouraging us to study hard to be able to become well-mannered people and contribute to our society. Fortunately, yesterday was a sunny day, so we celebrated all activities in our school yard with a lot of green spaces. Our ceremony ended up with a musical performance. Can you guess who was the singer there? It’s me. I am so proud of me that I could sing in such an important event, it was a lovely song about our innocent adolescence. The school offered us elevenses with home-made cakes, so we could enjoy some sweets while talking to each other and listening to music. I was so satisfied being a part of the ceremony.
That’s all about our Independence day. How about yours?
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,

Which of the following can convey setting in a story? Name of character The age of the character The culture of the character The thoughts of a character
Answer:
-The culture of the character
-The thoughts of a character
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Think about what setting means.
The setting is the time, place, and circumstances in which something occurs or develops.
So what out of the four choices helps do that?
The name of the character can't tell you about settings. Its a name not a descriptor. Ex: John.: That doesn't tell you as the reader anything about the time, place, or circumstances.
The age could possibly give you some context. But its can also just be a sentance. Ex: Daisy is 14.: you can get a little bit. But not enought in some circumstances. So for that i marked it as no.
“Kitty has no discretion in her coughs,” said her father; “she times them ill.” What device does Austen use in this sentence? What is its effect on the overall passage? Use specific evidence from the text to support your answer. This is from an excerpt of Pride and Prejudice.
In these lines, we hear that Kitty is constantly coughing, which drives her mother crazy. She wants her to stop, and argues that she is getting on her nerves:
"Stop coughing, Kitty. Please! You're getting on my nerves."
To this statement, Kitty's father replies that "Kitty has no discretion in her coughs."
This is an example of sarcasm, used by Kitty's father to make fun of Kitty's mother. He knows that no one can "time" their coughs to someone else's convenience. However, the statement is not understood by Kitty's mother. Sarcasm refers to the use of a witty and sharp remark that uses irony to show contempt. In this example, it is clear that the father feels some contempt for the mother, which is emphasized by the fact that she does not understand the ironic effect of his words.

Why did Thoreau resist change?
Answer:
Resistance to Civil Government, called Civil Disobedience for short, is an essay by American transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau that was first published in 1849. In it, Thoreau argues that individuals should not permit governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing such acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican–American War (1846–1848).

I have found this question online. We are supposed to write "1" for First Conditional, "2" for Second Conditional, and "3" for Third Conditional.
Answer and Explanation:
The First Conditional uses a verb in the present tense or in the present continuous tense for the condition, and a future tense (will) for the consequence. For example: If you love me, you will marry me.
The Second Conditional uses a verb in the past tense for the condition, and the verb "would" plus a main verb for the consequence. "Would" is the past form of "will". For example: If I had a car, I would drive to the beach on weekends.
The Third Conditional uses a verb in the present perfect tense for the condition, and "would/could/might have" plus a past participle for the consequence. Example: If she had called me, I would have told her the truth.
Having the explanation above in mind, we can safely answer the question:
1. IF IT IS RAINING TOMORROW, I WILL BE AT HOME. --> 1
2. I WOULD BUY THIS CAR IF I HAD MONEY. --> 2
3. THEY WOULD GET A PROMOTION IF THEY WERE GOOD DOCTORS. ---> 2
4. I WOULD HAVE SPOKEN TO HIM IF I HAD HAD TIME. --> 3
5. I CAN LIVE THERE IF I GET A JOB THERE. --> 1
6. MY FRIEND COULD HAVE SEEN THE CAR IF HE HAD PAID ATTENTION. --> 3
7. I WILL CALL YOU IF I HAVE TIME. --> 1
8. I WOULD TELL THE TRUTH IF I KNEW IT. --> 2
9. IF I HAD BOUGHT THE HOUSE, WE COULDN'T HAVE BOUGHT THE NEW CAR. --> 3
10. SHE WILL TRAVEL IF SHE HAS MONEY. --> 1

dowry is and paraphrase the definition.
Answer:
1. The earrings signify Ama's Pride.
2. Lakshmi's dowry (the prized possession to be given to Lakshmi's in-law on her wedding day), would not be paid.
Explanation:
'Sold' by Patricia McCormick tells the story of a family in India, who struggled financially to meet up to their needs. There is Ama, the Mother of the house, Lakshmi her daughter, and Ama's husband who happens to be Lakshmi's step-father. The father of the house is a loafer who spends all his monies on gambling and irrelevant things. Lakshmi adores her mother Ama who raised the family on her own, carrying all the financial burdens.
Ama's earrings is described as the joyful noise of tinkling gold. It signifies Ama's pride. The family hoped it would serve as Lakshmi's dowry, but they decide to sell it when things become really difficult. This means that Lakshmi's dowry would not be paid.

Long and short works of fiction have different
characteristics beyond simply the length of
the work. Think of a short story that you like
and a longer work (novel or novella) that you
like. You can use the story and novella from
this unit if no other works come to mind
quickly.
BU I E
Discuss the elements of each work that made
it enjoyable to read. What relationship did the
form of the work (short story, novella, or
novel) have in making it an enjoyable read?
What elements of fiction were strongest in the
work, and how did they impact your
enjoyment of the story? Compare the two
works you chose. How are they
representative of short fiction versus longer
I would choose a fairytale or fable for the short story and discuss the way it was enjoyable because of its simplicity, whimsy, and moral that should clear through the story without excessive twists or turns. Essentially, discuss the benefits of a simple and straightforward plot. As for the long work, choose a novel or novella that discusses a large topic within a complex storyline. For this I would recommend a book such as 1984, Fahrenheit 451, The Barcode Rebellion, or The Outsiders. All of these are great books that discuss various subjects of importance while creating a complex and enjoyable plot for the reader to follow. Shorter fiction tends to be a bit more lighthearted or whimsical than longer fictions like the books I recommended. (This is based in my opinion of longer versus shorter fiction, and there are outliers to my generalization, of course)
Ead the sentence, and use synonym context clues to determine the definition of opprobrium. Although people tend to react to new regulations with disapproval, I have never seen a proposed law face such opprobrium as the proposal to raise the driving age to twenty-one. Based on the sentence, what does the word opprobrium most likely mean? Which word is a synonym for opprobrium?
Answer:
The word opprobrium most likely means "criticism". A word that is a synonym for opprobrium is "disapproval".
Explanation:
Opprobrium means harsh criticism or, depending on the context, shame, discredit, dishonor.. Even if we did not know the word's meaning, we could conclude what it is by taking the whole sentence into consideration.
The sentence talks of people reacting badly -disapproving- new regulations. Then, it claims that no other law has had such a bad reaction as the one for raising the driving age. We can assume opprobrium still refers to disapproving, to a reaction of criticism. As a matter of fact, the word opprobrium is being used as a fancy way to avoid the repetition of "disapproval" in the sentence. We can, therefore, safely say that opprobrium means "criticism" and that "disapproval" is its synonym.
Answer:
1.✔ criticism
2.✔ disapproval

What is an example of situational irony in the excerpt? “‘Her great tragedy happened just three years ago,’ said the child; ‘that would be since your sister’s time.’” “‘Her tragedy?’ asked Framton; somehow in this restful country spot tragedies seemed out of place.” “She rattled on cheerfully about the shooting and the scarcity of birds, and the prospects for duck in the winter. To Framton it was all purely horrible.” “‘I hope you don’t mind the open window,’ said Mrs. Sappleton briskly; ‘my husband and brothers will be home directly from shooting, and they always come in this way.’”
Answer:
"She rattled on cheerfully about the shooting and the scarcity of birds, and the prospects for duck in the winter. To Framton it was all purely horrible."
Explanation:
From the book "The Open Window" by Saki, there is a narrative of Framton waiting for Mrs Sappleton and during his wait, he gets talking with her niece who informs him that there was a tragedy that happened.
She tells him that Mrs Sappleton's husband and two brothers went out for hunting but never came back but since the incident, Mrs Sappleton is still not over the shock and acts as if they would walk in anytime that's why she always leaves the window open till dusk, waiting for them.
This is an example of a situational irony because a situational irony is a type of irony in which the action has an opposite effect on what is intended.
Framton's discovery of the tragedy by the niece is an opposite of what he expected when he came looking for Mrs Sappleton.
The example of situational irony is "She rattled on cheerfully about the shooting and the scarcity of birds, and the prospects for duck in the winter. To Framton it was all purely horrible".
What is situational irony?Situational irony simply means the situation where the expectations and the outcomes are different.
In this case, the situational irony in the passage is "situational irony is "She rattled on cheerfully about the shooting and the scarcity of birds, and the prospects for duck in the winter. To Framton it was all purely horrible". This was different from the expected outcome.
