"Heroes of the civil rights movement were not all men" What is the author's purpose in this article?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The author's purpose is to recognize the women who participated during the Civil Rights Movement fighting for the rights of African Americans in the United States, alongside men like Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, and many others.

The women, who had already fought and won their right to vote, believed that the situation of Afro-American people in the country was a total injustice, and they supported their claim. Gwendolyn Zoharah Simmons, Mildred Bond Roxborough and Doris Derby, among many others, also waged a fight against discrimination and racism in America alongside these well-known men.

Answer:

Summary

The speaker is at sea at night, heading towards the black land in the distance. He briefly paints a picturesque image of night at sea but moves forward until he pulls his vessel up on to the sand.

He walks a mile along the beach and then across three fields until he approaches his goal, a farm. He taps at the window, sees the lighting of a match, and then is overwhelmed by the beating of his and his lover's hearts as they reunite.

Analysis

A short and relatively simple love poem, this piece still presents the subtext of the importance of movement in life, and of the dichotomy between the stasis of art and the action of life.

The entire poem has a sense of movement to it that reflects the speaker's desire to reunite with his love. The poem's meter and sound clearly denote a sense of pressing intent. Read it aloud to sense how the language is pushing ever forward, with three lines in the first stanza alone beginning with "And," as though to suggest that what is on the speaker's mind is never the moment he is in but rather the next thing, since the latter gets him closer to his lover. Technically, the meter is iambic tetrameter, though it is hardly strict, as should be expected in a poem that puts movement over order and contemplation.

This sense of movement is particularly interesting when compared to what is usually expected of a poem of this sort. The imagery, especially in the first stanza, is extremely picturesque and pastoral, the type of landscape that readers often expect poets to spend time contemplating and describing. Poetry, after all, often attempts to capture the complexities and beauty of particular moments, diving deeply into one image to discover all of its profundity.

This speaker, however, is uninterested in the magnificence of "the yellow half-moon large and low." Instead, his focus is on bypassing such elements so as to get to the beach, so he can get to the fields, so he can get to farm. The message here from Browning, who as usual makes no attempt to place himself directly into the work, seems to be that he chooses life rather than art, that for him the goal is movement and energy rather than static contemplation.

But when the speaker arrives to his love the poem abruptly ends. The fact that attainment itself does necessitate a third stanza can imply one of two things: either we can believe that the next action would be further movement of this sort, or we can believe that once he has attained his happiness, he has no further need for writing. He has achieved the unspeakable beauty of love, but as we see in the poem, he as speaker is not interested in plumbing the depths of beauty. Therefore, once he achieves such beauty and happiness for himself, he needs not write but rather can simply live.

It's worth noting the implications of secrecy in the poem. First, the journey and reunion happen at night, suggesting a veil of transgression that in the Victorian age would likely be linked to sexuality. Perhaps there is autobiographical impetus in exploring the theme from this angle, considering that Browning had only recently wed Elizabeth Barrett Browning after a courtship that they had to keep secret from her oppressive father. Many scholars see in it a representation of this courtship, though Browning's general eschewal of autobiography in his poetry makes it hard to imagine he would pursue that so explicitly. Regardless, the sexuality does add a certain sense of danger to the poem. Not only is sexuality implied in the clandestine meeting, but the image of the boat charging into the beach, where it can "quench its speed I' the slushy sand" is easy to interpret as a metaphor along these lines.

Overall, the poem is not subtle in its themes. The speed with which it can be read, since it is only twelve lines long, is the final implication that for he who loves, there is no cause for stopping to admire surrounding beauty, at least not until the supreme beauty of his beloved can be realized.

I think something that you need to get better at is being strong emotionally. The first reason is that you will be critisized by your fellow workers. There are just some people that like to get on your case about things, and you will have to deal with that.

             Also, your boss will be telling you things harshly or yell at you if you do the wrong thing. You should be prepared for that. Some bosses can have a bad day, or are grumpy.

       ANd lastly, to deal with stress. SOmetimes work can take over your whole day and how it happens. Don't let it control or get to you. Take a deep breath in and out, and shrug it off. We have to be strong to make it through the day.

             These are teh reasons why I think, you should be strong emotionally to go to work! But don't forget to always be ready for work too!

4. The police are looking for the missing boy. They can’t find him anywhere
5.The injured man couldn’t walk. They had to carry him

Thank you very much

Answers

Answer:

1. I told the hotel receptionist that I wanted to be woken up by her up at 6.30 (or) The hotel receptionist was told by me that I wanted to be woken up by her at 6:30.

2. Her new book will probably be translated into a number of foreign languages.

3. You would be arrested if you kicked a policeman.

4. The missing boy is being looked for by the police. He can't be found anywhere.

5.The injured man couldn’t walk (no change). He had to be carried.

Explanation:

The passive voice emphasizes the receiver of the action expressed by the verb. It transforms what is the object of the verb in the active voice into the subject of the new sentence. The subject of the active voice then becomes the agent of the passive voice, preceded by "by" and only mentioned when it is important.When transforming sentences from active to passive voice, the verb tense must not be changed. However, the auxiliary "to be" must added, always respecting the original tense. The main verb is then used in its past participle form.

For example:

- Jonathan sliced the onions. --> The onions were sliced by Jonathan.

Notice that only sentences that have an object of the verb can be transformed into the passive voice. That is why, in number 5 above, "The injured man couldn't walk" cannot be transformed. The verb phrase "couldn't walk" has no object.

(25 Points) Can someone please help me with these 2 questions. It'll be the best of help! Thanks!

Brought up in poor conditions and street-smart, Samuel has to learn to control his anger and to use his head instead of his fists. During the journey on the ship the Susan Constant, Samuel begins his lessons in determining right from wrong. Through interactions with other boys his age, as well as key figures such as Captain John Smith, Reverend Hunt, and Master Wingfield, Samuel encounters conflict and discovers ways to avoid it. His first contacts with the native peoples in the Caribbean and in the New World further teach Samuel about different perspectives and about the value of culture. Survival in the new colony tests Samuel as he evaluates these life lessons and learns to make choices using his heart instead of his fists.

Among the numerous suffix forms available, "-ist" indicates a person who studies a particular field, or follows a certain ideology or principle, or is an expert in a certain field. For example, a dermatologist is a word derived from the root word "dermatology" meaning the study of skin, and the suffix "-ist", making a new word that refers to the person practicing that profession.

Many years ago there was a indestructible cheetah not many people knew about it. One day a scientist decided to kill it so he set of to catch it but every time he tried to catch it he couldn't.

The first time he tried to make it fall asleep with a dart gun it dodged the dart. The second time he was mad so he made a machine gun but when he shot the bullets it didn't even burst the skin.

The scientist was so mad he contacted the military but they didn't believe him so one day he created
a ultimate gun called the blaster it was a gun whitch holds different sized bullets.

The scientist went to kill the cheetah, the scientist snuck up on it and shot all the bullets. At once they went through the skin , but the cheetah healed fast so there were scabs but the scabs never turned into skin they
just remained as black spots so the scientist gave up. And that's how the cheetah got its spots.
