Answer:

O He means to show that everyone, not just he, has experienced sin and sorrow and should therefore try not to hide from others or from God.

Explanation:

Nathan iel Ha wtho rne's "The Minister's Bla ck Ve il" revolves around the story of a church priest who had a black ve il on his face no matter what. This black ve il would stay on him, unremoved, till his death.

De s pite many que sti ons and req u ests from E li z a beth, his girl friend, Fat her H oop er refused to let the ve il go n or would he all ow her to have a pe ek at his face once. Towards the end of the story, at his de at h bed, the dying H o oper refused to let the v eil go des pite the mi ni st er from West bury asking "Are you ready for the lif tin g of the v e il that sh u ts in ti me fr om et er ni ty?" Father H ooper instead told him that, like others use various means to hide their trans gress ions and sins, his v eil is taken as a means to hide sins. And in that discourse, he expressed his belief that everyone hides their s ins but that should not be how it should be. The si ns and sorrows should not be hidden from God and from others.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

Please help I've been stuck with this question FORVER///What is the tone of the poem " A day" by Emily Dickinson support with text evidence for the poem?

Answers

Answer: The tone is  merry and full of promise. It continues in the second stanza where the hills personified untie their bonnets. As the sun rises and the morning air starts to warm, the mist, which is the metaphorical bonnet, over the hills evaporates. Then the bobolinks begin to sing.

More about her poems: Sometimes with humor, sometimes with pathos, Dickinson writes about her subjects. Remembering that she had a strong wit often helps to discern the tone behind her words. Emily Dickinson had many major themes in her writing. These themes include: religion, death, home and family, nature and love. Religion: Emily Dickinson was a religious person; religion is brought up many times in her poems.

Hamlet was also basically forced into the duel in which he kills both

.

Answers

Answer:

Hamlet was also basically forced into the duel in which he kills both Claudius and Leartes.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's "Hamlet" revolves around the story of a young prince Hamlet who wanted to avenge the murder of his father, King Hamlet. And in that process of trying to get revenge, he brought about the death of not only his enemies but also his own.

In Act V scene ii, we see Osric telling Hamlet and Horatio about the 'bet' that King Claudius had made about a duel between Laertes and Hamlet. Claudius has bet "six Barbary horses . . . six French rapiers and poniards with their assigns—as girdle, hangers, and so." This was to be given to any winner of the dozen rounds of which Claudius believes Laertes needed just three hits to defeat Hamlet.

And in that duel, Hamlet not only killed Laertes (with his own poisoned sword) but also Claudius by stabbing him with a dagger.

Explanation:

Simple present or present indefinite tense is employed to denote universal truths, habitual/regular actions, and the present actions. It is formed using 'sub + V1 + s/es with 3rd person singular.' While present continuous tense is employed to denote the ongoing action in the present and formed by using 'sub + is/am/are + V1 + ing.' Past simple tense is used to describe the completed actions or past events that took place at a specific point of time in the past and thus, it uses 'sub + V2.' Past continuous tense is used to denote the actions that began at particular point of time in the past and were in continuity in the past. It uses 'sub + was/were + V1 + ing.' These tenses have correctly been employed to fill the above sentences.

To Autumn
by John Keats

Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness,
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For summer has o'er-brimm'd their clammy cells.


Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy store?
Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find
Thee sitting careless on a granary floor,
Thy hair soft-lifted by the winnowing wind;
Or on a half-reap'd furrow sound asleep,
Drows'd with the fume of poppies, while thy hook
Spares the next swath and all its twined flowers:
And sometimes like a gleaner thou dost keep
Steady thy laden head across a brook;
Or by a cyder-press, with patient look,
Thou watchest the last oozings hours by hours.


Where are the songs of spring? Ay, Where are they?
Think not of them, thou hast thy music too,—
While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day,
And touch the stubble-plains with rosy hue;
Then in a wailful choir the small gnats mourn
Among the river sallows, borne aloft
Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies;
And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn;
Hedge-crickets sing; and now with treble soft
The red-breast whistles from a garden-croft;
And gathering swallows twitter in the skies.

Question 1
Part A

What inference can be drawn from "To Autumn"?


Autumn is a sad season, and the autumn of life is equally sad.

Autumn is a beautiful season, but spring is much preferred.

Autumn is simply a precursor to winter, and the autumn of life is a time of grief.

Autumn is a peaceful and abundant season, full of natural beauty.
Question 2
Part B

Which evidence from the text best supports the answer in Part A?


"Where are the songs of spring? Ay, where are they?
Think not of them, thou hast thy music too,—"

"Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness . . .
Conspiring . . . how to load and bless
With fruit the vines . . .
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core."

"And sometimes like a gleaner thou dost keep
Steady thy laden head across a brook; . . .
Thou watchest the last oozings hours by hours."

"Then in a wailful choir the small gnats mourn
Among the river sallows, borne aloft
Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies;"

Answers

Answer: Upon reading the text, i would conclude the answer is the the 4th one in part A "Autumn is a peaceful and abundant season, full of natural beauty." it does not have the mentioning's of winter nor spring, and creates a soft gentle image of beauty and peacefulness for the season.

The text to support this from B would be

"Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness . . .

Conspiring . . . how to load and bless

With fruit the vines . . .

And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core."

c) If necessary, revisit the play to find specific examples

Answers

Answer:

 The Importance of Being Earnest, A Trivial Comedy for Serious People is a play by Oscar Wilde. Working within the social conventions of late Victorian London, the play's major themes are the triviality with which it treats institutions as serious as marriage, and the resulting satire of Victorian ways. The Importance of Being Earnest has been revived many times since its premiere. It has been adapted for the cinema on three occasions. In The Importance of Being Earnest, Dame Edith Evans reprised her celebrated interpretation of Lady Bracknell; The Importance of Being Earnest by Kurt Baker used an all-black cast, and Oliver Parker's The Importance of Being Earnest incorporated some of Wilde's original material cut during the preparation of the original stage production. Ideologically, the Victorian era witnessed resistance to the rationalism that defined the Georgian period and an increasing turn towards romanticism and even mysticism with regard to religion, social values, and arts. Technologically, this era saw a staggering amount of innovations that proved key to Britain's power and prosperity.

Answers

I’m pretty sure it is a simple sentence

Although the test was tomorrow, Ray hadn't opened a book in a complex sentence. The correct option is A.

What are two independent clauses?

In a single sentence, two or more separate clauses may be joined together. Compound sentences are those that have two or more independent clauses and none of them are dependent. A sentence is a collection of words that includes at least one independent clause.

The sentence is made up of the independent clause "Ray hadn't opened a book" and the dependent clause "Although the test was tomorrow." With the subordinating conjunction "although," the dependent clause establishes that it cannot be read as a whole sentence. The dependent clause and independent clause together make a complicated sentence, yet the independent clause can stand alone as a sentence.

Thus, the ideal selection is option A.

in the project students have to make something unique out of _____ material
Course or coarse​

Answers

Answer:

coarse

Explanation:

In the project, students have to make something unique out of coarse material.

The words "course" and "coarse" are referred to as homophones in English language, which simply means that they have the same pronunciation but are different in terms of meaning, spelling and origin.

Coarse can be defined as an inferior quality of a physical object due to the structural presence of large particles or parts.

Generally, coarse is a word used to describe the texture of a material based on qualities such as thickness, roughness, hardness, sharpness, etc.

On the other hand, course is an English word that may be used as an adjective, verb or noun depending on the speaker or writer. It could mean a series or sequence of events, part of a meal, a path (direction) in motion, to flow naturally, a subject in academics, etc.

Hence, the students were required to make something unique from a material that isn't fine in texture i.e being large and loosely arranged.
