how does the tone shift in the poem "black girl magic"
Answer:
This is to inspire and motivate young black women. This shift occurs when the BGM tries to counteract the negative vibes from people around young black women. Sometimes, the holding back from being what you want to be, is clouded by what is going on around us in our world.
Explanation:
The black community has criticized due to the fact that the author tried to make it seem like black young girls are superhuman and have special powers. The black community wants young girls to know they can be anything they want to be, but remember that you have to make choices of the decisions that are going to out there to make. Yes, BGM is good to encourage young women to be all that they can be. It just has a shift in the ideas about something being handed to you - or working for and aiming for all the goals of what you want your own future to look like.

Read the following excerpt from "Preludes' by T. S. Eliot:
The winter evening settles down
With smell of steaks in passageways.
Six o'clock.
The burnt-out ends of smoky days.
And now a gusty shower wraps
The grimy scraps
Of withered leaves about your feet
And newspapers from vacant lots;
The showers beat
On broken blinds and chimney-pots,
And at the corner of the street
A lonely cab-horse steams and stamps.
And then the lighting of the lamps.
What aspect of this poem most clearly marks it as a work of Modernism?
A. It conveys a sense of disillusionment with city life.
B. It argues for the transcendence of the human spirit.
оооо
C. It challenges the idea of city life as fast paced.
D. It portrays a contemporary urban landscape.
Answer:
A. It conveys a sense of disillusionment with city life.
Explanation:
Modernism, an art movement that began in the Western world and spanned from the late nineteenth century to the early twentieth century was marked by a desire to embrace the urban lifestyle and move away from what was normal in the society.
The poem above portrays the desertion that comes with city life. Everyone seems to be on their own, showing the individuality and independence of people. The streets also feel deserted as the evening approaches. This portrays the disenchanted feeling that characterizes city life. It is not always as good as it seems.
4. PART A: What is the poet's most likely purpose for writing this poem?
A. To send a message about forgiveness.
B. To criticize dictators and protest war.
C. To describe the positive aspects of war.
D. To show support for ending a war peacefully.
The question is incomplete and the full version can be found online.
Answer: B. To criticize dictators and protest war.
Explanation:
The question refers to the poem titled "The War Works Hard," by Dunya Mikhail.
Although the author seems to be praising war, by defining it as magnificent and efficient, it does so by describing its effects through bleak images that depict the horrors of war, such as that it "swings corpses through the air", "inspires tyrants" and it "builds new houses for the orphans."
By the end, when she states that, despite such great consequences, no one praises war, it becomes clear that she´s not praising it, but condemning it.

Explanation:
A persuasive message can be defined as a type of essay in which the aim or goals of the speaker is to convince the listener to accept their own point of view, perspective, ideas or opinions. Thus, the main purpose of a persuasive essay is to inform an action in the mind of a potential listener by accepting all or part of the ideas, views, or perception being expressed by the speaker.
Basically, the three (3) goals or elements of a persuasive message are;
I. Convince: this is to make the readers or audience believe the views being expressed through the use of evidence, superior arguments or logic.
II. Stimulation: this is simply to create excitement and enthusiasm in the minds of potential readers while believing the writer.
III. Actuate: this is simply to cause the readers (audience) to take an action. It motivates, incite or compels the readers to do something.
Matching the type of persuasive message to a life scenario or example, we have;
1. Claim: I'm sorry to inform you that the set was missing a box of crayons.
A claim can be defined as a statement that is used by a person to prove, substantiate or support an argument.
2. Request: I'm requesting your help
in compiling data on metal mining for our annual report.
A request is simply a plea to another person to do something or call to action.
3. Proposal: We deliver delicious
food to your doorstep at any hour of the day of night. It's never too late to call us.
A proposal is the formal disclosure of a service while suggesting for patronage from the other party.
4. Request: Can you help me find a suitable partner for our operations in Mexico?
Also, a request is usually structured or constructed in form of a question.
5. Claim: My idea will help the company reduce its transportation expenses.
6. Request: We would appreciate a refund on the item.

When she sat down to dinner at her round table with its three-day-old cloth, and watched her husband opposite her lift the lid of the soup tureen and exclaim, delighted: "Ah, a good homemade beef stew! There's nothing better..." she would visualize elegant dinners with gleaming silver amid tapestried walls peopled by knights and ladies and exotic birds in a fairy forest; she would think of exquisite dishes served on gorgeous china, and of gallantries whispered and received with sphinx-like smiles while eating the pink flesh of trout or wings of grouse.2 She had no proper wardrobe, no jewels, nothing. And those were the only things that she loved--she felt she was made for them. She would have so loved to charm, to be envied, to be admired and sought after.She had a rich friend, an old school friend whom she refused to visit, because she suffered so keenly when she returned home. She would weep whole days, with grief, regret, despair, and misery.***One evening her husband came home with an exultant air, holding a large envelope in his hand."Here's something for you," he said.Swiftly she tore the paper and drew out a printed card on which were these words:"The Minister of Education and Madame Ramponneau request the pleasure of the company of Monsieur and Madame Loisel at the Ministry on the evening of Monday, January the 18th."Instead of being delighted, as her-husband hoped, she flung the invitation petulantly across the table, murmuring:"What do you want me to do with this?""Why, darling, I thought you'd be pleased. You never go out, and this is a great occasion. I had tremendous trouble to get it. Every one wants one; it's very select, and very few go to the clerks. You'll see all the really big people there."She looked at him out of furious eyes, and said impatiently: "And what do you suppose I am to wear at such an affair?"He had not thought about it; he stammered:"Why, the dress you go to the theatre in. It looks very nice, to me...."He stopped, stupefied and utterly at a loss when he saw that his wife was beginning to cry. Two large tears ran slowly down from the corners of her eyes towards the corners of her mouth."What's the matter with you? What's the matter with you?" he faltered.But with a violent effort she overcame her grief and replied in a calm voice, wiping her wet cheeks:"Nothing. Only I haven't a dress and so I can't go to this party. Give your invitation to some friend of yours whose wife will be turned out better than I shall."He was heart-broken."Look here, Mathilde," he persisted, "What would be the cost of a suitable dress, which you could use on other occasions as well, something very simple?"She thought for several seconds, reckoning up prices and also wondering for how large a sum she could ask without bringing upon herself an immediate refusal and an exclamation of horror from the careful-minded clerk.At last she replied with some hesitation:"I don't know exactly, but I think I could do it on four hundred francs."He grew slightly pale, for this was exactly the amount he had been saving for a gun, intending to get a little shooting next summer on the plain of Nanterre with some friends who went lark-shooting there on Sundays.Nevertheless he said: "Very well. I'll give you four hundred francs. But try and get a really nice dress with the money."

Titus starts to understand that Violet is innovative and he is not. They differ about whether America is a vote-based system. Titus concedes that he detests it when Violet gets against – the framework – no fun any longer. Titus visits Violet's home and meets her 'peculiar' father. Violet discussions about 'postponed delight.' (Titus conflicts). Titus and Violet battle, saying, 'In some cases, it seems like you are watching us, not bring us.'

Can someone write me an objective summary of chapter 1 of farewell to Manzanar? 5-7 sentences, please.
Answer:
The Wakatsuki's family fishing boat is going out to sea. All of a sudden, it turns around and comes back to the island. They hear that Pearl Harbor has been bombed. Papa decides to burn the Japanese flag and any papers that he has that connects him with Japan. He is then arrested for allegedly delivering oil to Japanese submarines. He is gone for a year.
Explanation:
This is about prewar American life and it foreshadows the suddenness of the attack on Pearl Harbor and how the US entered into WW2. The father is living a life like the "american dream". Something interesting that this story points out is how so many americans were not even familiar with Pearl Harbor before it was bombed. Papa is accused of spying and betrayal again his country.

Which sentence is an example of faulty coordination?
A William Penn founded Philadelphia in 1682, but Swedish immigrants had settled Southwark years earlier.
B The Germantown settlement was founded close to Philadelphia, but the two places remained separate for nearly 200 years.
C Many old homes in Society Hill have been restored, so they now look as they did in the past.
D Pennsylvania's oldest church is in Southwark, and it was opened in 1640. 90%
Answer:
D Pennsylvania's oldest church is in Southwark, and it was opened in 1640.
Explanation:
The word "and" introduces two ideas and appears to indicate that they are separate. While all the other choices use words such as "but" and "so", indicating that the two clauses are logically related, this one does not. However, the date the church was opened does closely relate to it being the oldest church. One would expect the word "for" rather than "and"...
I am not certain of this answer, but that is what I would imagine. I would eliminate B and C straightaway. Choice A seems to say that even though Philadelphia was founded later, its settlement Southwark was actually inhabited before.
Hope it helps :)
