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.

Explanation:

write a essay on human rights​

Answers

Answer:“Human rights” is a fairly modern concept, and it is one that has been getting a

great deal of attention here in the early years of the twenty-first century. While opinions

differ wildly about what constitutes human rights, most modern world citizens believe

that all people should have at least the most basic rights. In the following essay, I will

briefly examine this concept by discussing what I consider to be basic human rights. To

facilitate my discussion, I will categorize these rights as individual rights, national rights,

and general societal rights, and I will talk about just one right from each category.

As a basic individual right, I believe that I have a right to think anything that I

choose without hindrance or persecution. What I mean by this is that I should have the

freedom to think any way that I wish without someone telling me that I have to think a

certain way. For example, my government or workplace superiors should never tell me

that I must think a certain way, because the thoughts inside my head are none of their

business. Furthermore, I have the right not to tell people how I truly think about

something if I choose to remain silent. For example, I have the right to not say anything

about what I think to a police officer, lawyer, or judge. My right to think my own thoughts

helps me preserve my own identity, and it helps ensure that I will not get myself into

trouble if I am in a bad situation. If this right were taken away from me, I might as well

be locked into prison, because I do not believe that I could be a free individual without

my own thoughts.

One of the basic national rights that I believe that people of all nations should

have is the right to vote for the leaders who run their governments. In other words, all

people should have the right to vote in open, free, fair elections. For example, people of

all nations should choose their country’s president, prime minister, or other government representatives. This is an important national right, because people should be able to

choose their leaders instead of having their leaders chosen for them or having their

leaders decided by birth. In countries in the world where people are not allowed to vote

for their leaders, such as the People’s Republic of China and North Korea among

others, common people have no voice in their governments, and they normally also do

not have other freedoms and rights.

At the macro level of human society as a whole, I believe that all people should

have a right to the basic sustenance of food and water. It is a shame that with the

modern wonders of the twenty-first century, people in many parts of the world regularly

go without food and water for reasons other than those caused by natural disasters. For

example, people in many parts of the world go without food and water because of

warfare. Also, people all over the world go without food and water due to a lack of

money to buy food and water. Food and water are the basic needs of human existence.

People can live without clothing and shelter – let alone automobiles, cellular phones,

and diamond rings – but life can survive only a limited time without food and water.

Actually, there is no recognized basic human right to food and water, but this ideal is at

the top of my list of what I consider to be general rights for all humankind.

In conclusion, I believe that any concept of human rights should include the right

for individuals to think as they choose, the right for people to vote for their national

leaders, and the right for people to have food and water to sustain themselves. Without

these basic rights, I do not believe that it is possible for people to truly be free. However,

with these rights at the top of the list of basic human rights, I believe that it is possible to

achieve a world society in which all people are free and live in peace.

Explanation:As a basic individual right, I believe that I have a right to think

anything that I choose without hindrance or persecution. What I mean by this is

that I should have the freedom to think any way that I wish without someone telling

me that I have to think a certain way. For example, my government or

workplace superiors should never tell me that I must think a certain

way, because the thoughts inside my head are none of their business.

Furthermore, I have the right not to tell people how I truly think about

something if I choose to remain silent. For example, I have the right to not

say anything about what I think to a police officer, lawyer, or judge. My right to

think my own thoughts helps me preserve my own identity, and it helps ensure that

I will not get myself into trouble if I am in a bad situation. If this right were taken

away from me, I might as well be locked into prison, because I do not believe that I

could be a free individual without my own thoughts.

Explain how the themes in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde are still applicable to students in the 21st century.

Answers

Answer:

The themes in Dr. Jekyll and  Mr. Hyde include "the duality of human nature" and "reputation." These themes apply to the students in the 21st century as most students are faced with the challenge to choose between good and evil, and are also concerned about their reputation.

Explanation:

"Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" is a novella written by Robert Louis Stevenson. The novella is about the dual character of Dr. Jekyll.

The themes prevalent in the novella are "the duality of human nature" and "reputation."  These themes apply to the students in the 21st century as, just like Dr. Jekyll, they are faced with the challenge to choose between good and evil. When they encounter such situations where they have to choose either one of them, they come across "the duality of human nature."

Another theme prevalent in the novella was "reputation." The students in the 21st century are most concerned about their reputation. Especially when they come under the peer-pressure. They might take the wrong steps to maintain a fake reputation among their peer groups.

Answers

Answer:

1. The author's argument is that evolutions in language such as "textspeak" do not ruin our language, rather, they are creative ways of incorporating symbols in technology.

2. The author claims that

a. Changes in language do not demonstrate decay, rather they indicate flexibility.

b. Emoticons are not just faces. They convey feelings.

c. The use of emoticons in language makes ideas to be better clarified. They ease the flow of conversations.

d. A symbol can communicate an entire message.

3. Reasons to support the claims

a. History shows that people have always complained about changes in language but time shows that these changes are not harmful but rather innovations.

b. Emoticons convey feelings of happiness, sadness, or anger during text communications. These symbols aid the flow of communication and clarifies ideas that would otherwise not be understood because the communicators cannot see each other physically.

Explanation:

In the article by Lauren Collister, she argues against the popular belief that emoticons are ruining language. She rather believes that these symbols are innovations that should be embraced by all because they ease the flow of communication. Dating back to A.D 63 when some Latin students began writing the French Language, a scholar tagged the language an "artificial language". Today, this is the language of an entire people.

Innovations in language are to be embraced not rejected.

Jess is pretty smart and wants to end the war so she can let people live, go to school whoever is poor or royal. Jess lives in Boston, Massachusetts. Jess doesnt want to go to school, unless the war is over because she keeps thinking How will the war end?. So she kept asking them and they told her that we will win no matter what. But she wont believe it until she sees it, Jess wants to go to school but how will she go? Find out after reading the whole text!!!!!Jess was involved in the Boston tea party and she wanted to stop it. So she asked Benjamin Franklin that if they could stop the tea party , he was involved in the tea party. But Franklin told her We do not want violence but they asked for it, little girl. There was tea involved, but nobody was drinking it. The Boston Tea Party was a protest by the American Colonists against the British government. So Jess was mad and she did not know why they were arguing about that. So she went to the other side and told them, ``Why do you argue about this?''. That vice captain told the captain that she is from the other side, and the captain got mad. The captain got mad, and he asked her What do you want?. She was not scared and replied I want you to stop going against the tea party, I want to go to school. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA said the leader laughing out loud that he cried of laughter. What can a little girl like you do against us? said the leader. She said As many as you can, What?. Don't you dare talk back to you said the leader. The captain was serious, and told the mens to kick her out now!When the captain told the mens to kick her out, she was so mad and then she did something that she was not supposed to do as a kid at her age. She burned their base and then she ran away. Almost 30-40 people died and the rest survived including the captain. The other team saw the fire and they thought it was an accident made by them and they attacked. So after they won and named it the boston tea party after their victory. They were also told they had to pay high taxes on the tea. This tax was called the Tea Act. It actually was a lot of tea. The 342 containers totaled 90,000 pounds of tea! Jess went to school after the tea party.THE END Jess solved the problem by burning their base.Their life gets better after they finish and get to go to school.They plan to get education and be smart to get a job. 3.
