the african pot by Fhazel Johennesse comment on the structure of the poem
Answer:
https://www.cdc.gov › and plz following me
By analyzing the structure of this poem, we can see that the poem is composed of six stanzas and thirty lines. Each stanza has a different number of lines, the poem has no rhymes and no punctuation.
The structure of a poem refers to how that poem is organized and how the reader can perceive it as soon as he observes it.
In "The African Pot" we can see a non-standardized and spontaneous structure and this is directly related to the message of the poem, since:
The poem refers to the daily life of a small African village.The events that take place in the village are spontaneous and non-standard, as is the organization of the stanzas and lines of the poem.Everything that happens in the village is very simple, nothing is highlighted, as well as the lines of the poem that do not have punctuation or rhymes.Despite its simplicity, the village is an admirable place, as is the poem with its simple and tranquil structure.Based on this, we can conclude that as soon as we look at the structure of the poem, we get the impression that the poet made no effort to present a standard and well-established structure, but soon after we realized that the poet made an effort to make the structure follow the narrative presented in the poem.

Read this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer."
The disease was first detected in England in 1986, though some scientists think the very first cases started at least ten years before. Cows usually eat only grass and other plants, but farmers had been feeding them a meat and bone mixture that made the cows plumper. But somehow, at least one batch of the mixture had become contaminated with what was then an unknown killer: a prion.
By 1993, British farmers were reporting up to one thousand new cases of BSE a week. Governments all around the world reacted by increasing testing for the disease and not allowing any cows to be eaten if they were at risk of having the disease. As sheep can also get a prion disease called scrapie, they were tested as well. Farmers were angry that they were losing their livestock, and nobody knew how to protect cows and people from the disease.
Consumers were also in a panic when they learned about BSE, and for a very good reason: prions are infectious. If you eat a prion from a "mad cow” or sheep, you are at risk for developing a human version of BSE. The public felt betrayed that their governments had underreacted to the problem or covered it up.
Eventually, in 1997, governments began to ban farmers from feeding their livestock high-risk meat and bone mixtures. With that ban, the epidemic quickly peaked, and by 2010 had largely disappeared. Over the years, half a million cows and two hundred people had been killed by prions.
In the end, the BSE epidemic was a watershed moment, or turning point, in public health. Citizens were enraged at their governments for having kept prions a secret. Governments, who had lost the public trust, struggled to find the best way to communicate health risks without creating unnecessary panic.
How does the author's use of chronology help support the idea that the BSE epidemic was a watershed moment, or turning point, in government use of law to support public health?
o The author lays out a timeline to show how scientific discoveries made governments less likely to make laws for public health.
o The author makes it clear that prions were always known to be dangerous and that scientists discovered them to be the cause of mad cow disease.
o The author discusses how the mad cow disease epidemic ended only about twenty-five years after it first became a problem.
o The author shows how frustrated people were that nothing was done about a disease until over ten years after it was discovered.

Answer:
D. Scientists make food that wouldn't fall apart and that has very little packaging.
Explanation:
Option D is the correct answer. It is the best choice I will enter in the "What I Learned" column.
From the text, I learn that scientist actually make food that wouldn't fall apart and float away. We see that such can be achieved in the food made and the packaging of the food. Less wrapping of food which leads to less packaging actually reduces the chance of causing harm to the body.
So, making food that wouldn't fall apart and that also have very little packaging by scientists is what I learned.

What will you say, if you have a chance to speak to your friends, about Early Childhood Education
Answer:
I'd probably talk about the psychology about how Early Childhood Education can affect a child in the long run.
Explanation:
Read the excerpt from "Hansel and Gretel.”
The children, too, had not been able to sleep for hunger, and had heard what their step-mother had said to their father. Gretel wept bitterly and spoke to Hansel: "Now it’s all up with us.” "No, no, Gretel,” said Hansel, "don’t fret yourself; I’ll be able to find a way of escape, no fear.” And when the old people had fallen asleep he got up, slipped on his little coat, opened the back door and stole out. The moon was shining clearly, and the white pebbles which lay in front of the house glittered like bits of silver. Hansel bent down and filled his pocket with as many of them as he could cram in. Then he went back and said to Gretel: "Be comforted, my dear little sister, and go to sleep: God will not desert us”; and he lay down in bed again.
At daybreak, even before the sun was up, the woman came and woke the two children: "Get up, you lie-abeds, we’re all going to the forest to fetch wood.” She gave them each a bit of bread and spoke: "There’s something for your luncheon, but don’t you eat it up before, for it’s all you’ll get.” Gretel took the bread under her apron, as Hansel had the stones in his pocket. Then they all set out together on the way to the forest. After they had walked for a little, Hansel stood still and looked back at the house, and this maneuver he repeated again and again. His father observed him, and [said]: "Hansel, what are you gazing at there, and why do you always remain behind? Take care, and don’t lose your footing.” "Oh! father,” said Hansel, "I am looking back at my white kitten, which is sitting on the roof, waving me a farewell.” The woman exclaimed: "What a donkey you are! that isn’t your kitten, that’s the morning sun shining on the chimney.” But Hansel had not looked back at his kitten, but had always dropped one of the white pebbles out of his pocket on to the path.
Which sentence best states how Hansel’s actions help reveal a theme?
Hansel lies to his father in order to protect Gretel.
Hansel fills his pockets with stones to mark the way home.
Hansel plans ahead for a way to save both Gretel and himself.
Hansel defies his stepmother in order to say good-bye to his kitten.

Answer:
That unanswered question became both an oppressive shroud over Klaus's childhood and a sinister playmate, as he often let his mind to wander, imagining horrors or enemies that must have been so great that only such a great, grey, stone wall could keep them out.
Explanation:
The above sentence best communicates the author's message that the Berlin Wall made citizens feel afraid.
This is true because we discover from the text that the issue of the wall making Klaus afraid was an oppressive shroud over his childhood. It made his mind to wander and to imagine horrors.
This reveals that Klaus's fear which started from his childhood would have been shaped by what the other citizens told him about the wall. If he as a citizen feels this way, it shows that others will feel same as well.
Answer:
The correct answer is:
That unanswered question became both an oppressive shroud over Klaus's childhood and a sinister playmate, as he often let his mind wander, imagining horrors or enemies that must have been so great that only such a great, grey, stone wall could keep them out.

what is the central metaphor utilized in the poem mother to son
The image of a staircase serves as the poem "Mother to Son" by Langston Hughes's major metaphor. This metaphor is used to describe life's challenges and tribulations.
In the poem, the mother is encouraging her son that despite the challenges in life, it is still worthwhile to live. She utilises the image of a staircase to symbolise the concept that life is a journey and that the boy should persevere through all of its challenges.
To begin, the mother says, "Well, son, I'll tell you: Life for me ain't been no crystal stair." This sentence establishes the staircase metaphor right away, and it is utilised again in the poem to highlight the concept that life is a journey.

O young Lochinvar is come out of the west, Through all the wide Border his steed was the best; And save his good broadsword he weapons had none, He rode all unarm’d, and he rode all alone. So faithful in love, and so dauntless in war, There never was knight like the young Lochinvar. He staid not for brake, and he stopp'd not for stone, He swam the Eske river where ford there was none; But ere he alighted at Netherby gate, The bride had consented, the gallant came late: For a laggard in love, and a dastard in war, Was to wed the fair Ellen of brave Lochinvar. So boldly he enter'd the Netherby Hall, Among bride's-men, and kinsmen, and brothers and all: Then spoke the bride's father, his hand on his sword, (For the poor craven bridegroom said never a word,) "O come ye in peace here, or come ye in war, Or to dance at our bridal, young Lord Lochinvar?" "I long woo'd your daughter, my suit you denied;— Love swells like the Solway, but ebbs like its tide— And now I am come, with this lost love of mine, To lead but one measure, drink one cup of wine.

The Burnell children are gifted an elaborate dollhouse by a friend of the family who once stayed with them. They immediately fall in love with the dollhouse, and Kezia especially enjoys the little lamp which sits on one of its tables. When they next go to school, the Burnell children brag left and right about the dollhouse, and they get their entire class's attention. They are allowed to bring any two classmates per day by the house to look at the dollhouse, but they cannot bring the Kelvey children, who come from a family so poor even their teacher treats them differently. Kezia disobeys this rule, and brings the Kelveys by to look at the dollhouse, but she is discovered by her aunt, and the Kelveys are quickly shooed away
