Read these lines from the poem "The Black Snake" by Patricia Hubbell.
Black snake! Black snake!
Curving down the lawn,
Glides like a wave
With its silver gone.
What is the meaning of the imagery in these lines?
The snake is trying to find its way back to the ocean.
The snake moves as seamlessly and effortlessly as the ocean.
The snake is as elusive and unpredictable as catching a fish.
The snake is a creature of the water. PLEASE PLEASE ANSWER
Answer:
The snake moves as seamlessly and effortlessly as the ocean
Explanation:
To me, it seems as the most logical since the lines of the poem are explaining the snakes movements as 'waves' and tainting it with the words 'curving' and 'glides'.
The second statement: The snake moves as seamlessly and effortlessly as the ocean.
Reasoning
The simile, "Glides like a wave" is comparing the snake's movements to the graceful flows of ocean waves.
"Curving down the lawn" describes that the snake is on someone's lawn and there is no statement showing that it is making an effort to escape.
These lines invalidate the others and prove the answer.

Read the opening paragraph of "After Twenty Years” by O. Henry.
The policeman on the beat moved up the avenue impressively. The impressiveness was habitual and not for show, for spectators were few. The time was barely 10 o'clock at night, but chilly gusts of wind with a taste of rain in them had well nigh de-peopled the streets.
Trying doors as he went, twirling his club with many intricate and artful movements, turning now and then to cast his watchful eye adown the pacific thoroughfare, the officer, with his stalwart form and slight swagger, made a fine picture of a guardian of the peace. The vicinity was one that kept early hours. Now and then you might see the lights of a cigar store or of an all-night lunch counter; but the majority of the doors belonged to business places that had long since been closed.

Dialogue Conditional sentences
Answer:
I have no idea what your question is, so im just going to make an educated guess and explain my reasoning.
Explanation:
An example of a conditional sentence:
A conditional sentence tells what would or might happen under certain conditions. It most often contains an adverb clause beginning with 'if' and an independent clause. ... For example: "If it's cold, I'll wear a jacket” or “I'll (I will) wear a jacket if it's cold.” Either clause can go first.
The 4 types of conditional sentences:
There are 4 basic types of conditionals: zero, first, second, and third. It's also possible to mix them up and use the first part of a sentence as one type of conditional and the second part as another. These sentences would be called “mixed conditionals.”

The prefix im- in the word impractical gives a clue that this word means
"very useful."
"more useful."
"not useful."
"too useful."
Answer:
"not useful"
Explanation:
The prefix im expresses negation; not, so when you call something impractical you are saying no-practical or not useful
The prefix im- in the word impractical gives a clue that this word means "not useful". Thus, option third is correct.
What is the word impractical?Implementing, maintaining, or using it is not a good idea. Impractical: incapable of managing practical matters sensibly or prudently can be defined as impractical.
People that lack pragmatism are typically not excellent at making or repairing things. Impractical arrangements, concepts, or approaches cannot be carried out, implemented, or used efficiently: having so many users attempting to use this equipment at the same time is unrealistic.
Anything that is impractical is something that is neither sensible nor realistic, something that does not operate well in practice. Living in one place and working in another, for example, is impractical. The phrases "unpractical" and "inconvenient" indicate the same thing. Therefore, it can be concluded that, option C is correct.

Stanley wasn't sure if the bus driver meant for him to be careful going down the steps, or if he was telling him to be careful at Camp Green Lake. "Thanks for the ride," he said. His mouth was dry and his throat hurt. He stepped onto the hard, dry dirt. There was a band of sweat around his wrist where the handcuff had been.
The land was barren and desolate. He could see a few rundown buildings and some tents. Farther away there was a cabin beneath two tall trees. Those two trees were the only plant life he could see. There weren't even weeds.
