Read the poem.
A Poison Tree
by William Blake
I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
And I watered it in fears
Night and morning with my tears,
And I sunned it with smiles
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And it grew both day and night,
Till it bore an apple bright,
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine,—
And into my garden stole
When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning, glad, I see
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.
Question 1
Part A

Answer:
The beautiful unicorn lived in total solitude. Because of her solo existence, she found life to be quite monotonous. She even caught herself at times giving a monologue of encouragement that no one else would hear. At times, it seemed as if her only comfort was the solar energy from above. One day, an incredibly unique thing occurred. Three unicorns whom she had never met appeared in her clearing. Although their voices were rather monotone, they spoke in perfect unison. They said they had come to unify all the unicorns of the forest and that none should be alone. Happily, she joined their group and galloped to her new home.

Notwithstanding some claims to the contrary, most passages are at least one paragraph long and frequently multiple.
Some paragraphs mix quotes from various sources together and might not have a clear focal theme of their own. Yet, a passage typically gives a well chosen extract that can be taken to have some form of deeper meaning on most test portions.

Answer:
The current c_ronavirus disease, C_vid-19, has been called a once-in-a-century pandemic. But it may also be a once-in-a-century evidence fiasco.
At a time when everyone needs better information, from disease modelers and governments to people quarantined or just social distancing, we lack reliable evidence on how many people have been infected with SARS-C_V-2 or who continue to become infected. Better information is needed to guide decisions and actions of monumental significance and to monitor their impact.
V_ccines or affordable treatments take many months (or even years) to develop and test properly. Given such timelines, the consequences of long-term lockdowns are entirely unknown.
These “mild” coronaviruses may be implicated in several thousands of d_aths every year worldwide, though the vast majority of them are not documented with precise testing. Instead, they are lost as noise among 60 million d_aths from various causes every year.
Although successful surveillance systems have long existed for influenza, the disease is confirmed by a laboratory in a tiny minority of cases. In the U.S., for example, so far this season 1,073,976 specimens have been tested and 222,552 (20.7%) have tested positive for influenza. In the same period, the estimated number of influenza-like illnesses is between 36,000,000 and 51,000,000, with an estimated 22,000 to 55,000 flu d_aths.
Note the uncertainty about influenza-like illness d_aths: a 2.5-fold range, corresponding to tens of thousands of d_aths. Every year, some of these d_aths are due to influenza and some to other viruses, like common-cold coronaviruses.
In an autopsy series that tested for respiratory viruses in specimens from 57 elderly persons who died during the 2016 to 2017 influenza season, influenza viruses were detected in 18% of the specimens, while any kind of respiratory virus was found in 47%. In some people who die from viral respiratory pathogens, more than one virus is found upon autopsy and bacteria are often superimposed. A positive test for coronavirus does not mean necessarily that this virus is always primarily responsible for a patient’s demise.

Explore how the form of John Keats’ poem “On the Sea” impacts its overall meaning. Provide evidence from the text to support your answer. (150+ words)
Answer:
The form of Keats' "On the Sea" quite literally mimics the appearance of the sea.
The structure of the lines mimics the formation of waves. Thanks to the way the lines are indented, the poem appears to undulate, much like the waves of the sea.
In this poem, the poem's structure and subject matter are intertwined.
Explanation:
It might seem like a lot to do, but, you will get a lot of points!!!!! I need you to help me figure out, the theme is developed for the story "if" (which is below) and it will need to have specific evidence from the poem. And then can you explain how they are developed in "cant" (which is also below) And then can you summarize how the two poems and similar and/or different. Thank You! :3Can’t
by Edgar Guest
Can’t is the worst word that’s written or spoken;
Doing more harm here than slander and lies;
On it is many a strong spirit broken,
And with it many a good purpose dies.
It springs from the lips of the thoughtless each morning
And robs us of courage we need through the day:
It rings in our ears like a timely sent warning
And laughs when we falter and fall by the way.
Can’t is the father of feeble endeavor,
The parent of terror and halfhearted work;
It weakens the efforts of artisans clever,
And makes of the toiler an indolent shirk.
It poisons the soul of the man with a vision,
It stifles in infancy many a plan;
It greets honest toiling with open derision
And mocks at the hopes and the dreams of a man.
Can’t is a word none should speak without blushing;
To utter it should be a symbol of shame;
Ambition and courage it daily is crushing;
It blights a man’s purpose and shortens his aim.
Despise it with all of your hatred of error;
Refuse it the lodgment it seeks in your brain;
Arm against it as a creature of terror,
And all that you dream of you someday shall gain.
Can’t is the word that is foe to ambition
An enemy ambushed to shatter your will;
Its prey is forever the man with a mission
And bows but to courage and patience and skill.
Hate it, with hatred that’s deep and undying,
For once it is welcomed ’twill break any man;
Whatever the goal you are seeking, keep trying
And answer this demon by saying: “I can.” End
If
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: “Hold on!”
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings—nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run—
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son! End

(plz finish the rest)
A woman was walking in the snow of her small town. She was shivering and she felt as if her legs would freeze off, but the woman still enjoyed looking at the frost covered trees and the smoke coming from the fire places.
As the woman continued her solitary walk through the snowy town, a soft melody reached her ears. Intrigued, she followed the enchanting sound, which seemed to grow louder with each step. It led her to a cozy little café nestled amidst the wintry landscape.
Curiosity piqued, she pushed open the door, and a rush of warmth and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee embraced her. The café was adorned with twinkling lights and adorned Christmas decorations, filling the air with a festive spirit.
In one corner, a talented musician played a gentle tune on a grand piano, filling the room with an ethereal melody. The patrons, captivated by the music, sat huddled together, sharing stories and laughter as they sipped on steaming mugs of hot cocoa.
The café owner, a kind-hearted woman with a warm smile, noticed the shivering woman at the door and welcomed her with open arms. She handed her a cozy blanket and guided her to a seat by the crackling fireplace, where the woman could thaw her frozen limbs.
As she wrapped the blanket around herself, the woman's eyes sparkled with gratitude and a newfound sense of belonging. She was no longer alone in the cold; she had found a haven of warmth and camaraderie.
Engulfed in the comforting atmosphere, the woman struck up conversations with the other patrons, sharing tales of their lives and dreams. The café became a hub of friendship, where people from all walks of life found solace and connection.
Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months. The woman became a cherished member of the café's tight-knit community. She discovered her own talent for storytelling, captivating the audience with her vivid imagination and heartfelt narratives.
Inspired by the camaraderie and the magic of the café, the woman proposed an idea to the owner. Together, they organized weekly storytelling nights, inviting locals and visitors alike to share their own stories, dreams, and aspirations. The event became a beloved tradition, bringing the town together in a celebration of the human spirit.
As word of the café's enchanting atmosphere spread, people from far and wide flocked to experience its warmth and the captivating stories that unfolded within its walls. The small town transformed into a bustling destination, thriving with creativity, laughter, and a deep sense of community.
And so, the woman's walk in the snow had led her to a place she had never anticipated—a place of connection, purpose, and shared joy. In the embrace of the café's inviting ambiance and the company of kindred spirits, she had discovered the true beauty of her small town and the magic that lay hidden within the simplest moments of life.
From that day forward, the woman's winter walks became a cherished tradition. She would wander through the snow-covered streets, her heart filled with gratitude for the café and the beautiful journey it had set in motion. And as she looked at the frost-covered trees and the smoke billowing from the chimneys, she couldn't help but smile, knowing that within those wintry scenes, there was a tapestry of stories waiting to be told and a community waiting to be united.

Answer:
A text explains the sequence of events that affected the discovery of the Rosetta stone is explained below in details.
Explanation:
When it was determined nobody understood how to understand Ancient Egyptian. Because the writings say the identical thing in three distinct languages the Rosetta Stone became a very important part of the proof. Through the activity of many people, it took over 2 months to reveal what the Rosetta Stone had to tell. The Rosetta Stone is a part of rock that was inscribed on and was made to praise an Egyptian Pharaoh. The Rosetta rock today really has many places and some are relocated today, chiefly because it makes rest harder to be removed. And because there is only one Rosetta rock other galleries have records and other documents that explain what the Rosetta Stone is about. It had apparently been developed into a very faded wall. The officer in command understood the significance of the discovery.

Fallen Leaves and Water Quality
adapted from U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)
Removing leaf litter does a lot more than make a yard look nice. The leaves can actually be harmful if left alone. A study in Madison, Wisconsin shows why.
Leaf litter adds a large amount of phosphorus to urban storm water, which then runs off into waterways and lakes. Excessive amounts of nutrients like phosphorus and nitrogen can be fatal for fish and other aquatic life. In Madison, Wisconsin, scientists tested exactly how much of the nutrients existed. Without removal, leaf litter and other organic debris in the fall contributed 56 percent of the annual total phosphorus in urban storm water. This compares to only 16 percent when streets were cleared of leaves prior to rain.
This information proved to be very helpful. "Our study found that leaf removal is one of the few treatment options available to environmental managers for reducing the amount of dissolved nutrients in storm water," said Bill Selbig, a USGS scientist and the author of the report. "These findings are applicable to any city that is required to reduce phosphorus loads from urban areas."
From 2013 to 2015, scientists looked at concentrations of phosphorus and nitrogen in storm water from two areas in western Madison that had similar tree cover. The city applied a leaf litter removal program from late September through mid-November at one site but not the other. The researchers found significantly lower amounts of phosphorus and nitrogen at the site where leaves were removed.
The study also found that storm water nutrient levels were highest during the fall. This finding shows that leaf removal programs are most effective during fall in Madison. It also shows that sources other than leaves, such as street dirt and grass clippings, were likely the main contributors of phosphorus and other nutrients during spring and summer.
During the study period, the city of Madison used leaf collection, street cleaning, and leaf blowers to remove leaf litter from residential areas. They also asked residents to pile their leaves next to the street to limit excess debris. Leaf collection and street cleaning occurred about every seven days from late September through mid-November.
The study in Madison has helped shed light on growing concerns for many environmentalists. The good news is that with proper maintenance, all cities can produce cleaner water.
The USGS collaborated with the City of Madison, the Fund for Lake Michigan, and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources on the study.
Which two statements explain how paragraph 4 contributes to the development of ideas in the passage?
It shows that leaf litter can affect storm water in multiple locations.
It introduces the importance of timing when removing leaf litter.
It highlights the effectiveness of the leaf removal program.
It gives examples of the ways in which leaf litter is removed during fall.
It presents the idea that leaf removal processes need to be improved.
Answer:The two answers are:
- It highlights the effectiveness of the leaf removal program
- It shows that leaf litter can affect storm water in multiple locations

Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered -
Till I scarcely more than muttered 'Other friends have flown before -
On the morrow, he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.'

When Raven saw the Sun, Moon and stars, and freshwater hanging on the sides of Eagle's lodge, he knew what he should do. He watched for his chance to seize them when no one was looking. He stole all of them, and a brand of fire also, and flew out of the longhouse through the smoke hole. As soon as Raven got outside he hung the Sun up in the sky. It made so much light that he was able to fly far out to an island in the middle of the ocean. When the Sun set, he fastened the Moon up in the sky and hung the stars around in different places.
