what is the first step in self-selecting a text?

Answers

Answer 1
In this context, the first step is always to ask yourself what is the purpose of reading, which includes only to entertain, to learn about one topic, to expand vocabulary, etc. This is the first step because the purpose defines the types of texts you should read and limits the options.

What does the sea symbolize in the poem?

Answers

Answer:

I think the sea might symbolize a place that brings comfort, yet also brings sadness. I the first couple of sentences, the text shows how the sea is calm and how the air smelled sweet, revealing that the sea was a place that brings you comfort. Another part that supports the sea being a place that brings comfort and sadness in the last sentence which reads "...Begin, and cease, and then again begin, with tremulous cadence slow, and bring the eternal note of sadness in." This reveals that although the sea brings comfort and tranquility, it too does bring sadness.

Answers

Answer:

There is no better recreation than trying something new. Every year, we plan to visit a new place as family. This summer vacation, we went to the ones of the best tourist spots of India. We planned a 5 day trip to the Fun Capital of India, Goa and booked a van for the same.

Goa is one of the famous places located in the south western region of our country. Goa is very well known for its beaches and places of worship. The main reason we selected Goa as our destination this year is the big number of beaches the place has. We made it to Varca Beach, Cavelessom Beach, Utorda Beach, Arambol Beach and Ashwem Beach.

Since we love adventure, we planned our first day to Bats Island. At Bats Island, we spent the whole day relaxing and Snorkelling. The second day we enjoyed sightseeing in speed boat cruising. We enjoyed this day a lot since we had good time with the cruise. The next day we booked a van for sightseeing places namely Fort Aguada, Jimmy’s Palace, Central Jail, Raj Bhawan and Dolphin Watch.

The best part of our trip was the fourth day Dudhsagar Waterfalls, which is the fifth largest waterfalls in our country. The natural scenery we found there was splendid and our photo session at Dudhsagar Waterfalls was the best. The last day we relaxed in the resort we booked. We did a fine shopping of all precious things available in Goa and enjoyed our evening in Baga Beach before returning back to hometown.

Dear Miss Callas,

Last night, I was at the Verona Arena to see your beautiful voice with a couple of my companions. Your voice was beautiful and simply moved me to tears. The ability to perform a wide variety of different roles was astounding and the dramatic strength of your low vocal range as much as the high and bright notes of your high range was something I thought was almost impossible. I admire your unique skills when you sang "Con Onor Muore", which I believe means "With honor dies" in Italian.

Read the excerpt from "Islands in Hot Water."

The problem behind rising sea levels is climate change. Scientists say that the Earth's atmosphere is getting warmer. They explain that when the sun warms the Earth, gases in the atmosphere trap the sun's heat. The planet stays warm. Without these greenhouse gases, the Earth would be too cold for life. But scientists suggest the problem is that too much greenhouse gas is being pumped into the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases are released when people burn fossil fuels. Trees absorb greenhouse gas, but many forests are cut down. Fewer trees means that there is more gas to trap heat. For these and other reasons, the Earth's temperature rises.

A 2-column table with 2 rows. Column 1 is labeled Problems with entries Blank, Blank. Column 2 is labeled Solutions with entries Blank, Blank.

Which detail belongs in the "Problems” column?

The hot sun warms the Earth.

Answers

Answer:

particulate matter.

Explanation:

Pollution can be defined as the physical degradation or contamination of the environment through an emission of harmful, poisonous and toxic chemical substances. Particulate population is a form of pollution that is responsible for the degradation of the environment.

Particulate matter is also referred to as particle pollution or atmospheric aerosol particles and it can be defined as a complex microscopic mixture of liquid droplets and solid particles that are suspended in air. Other forms of particle pollution includes space debris and marine debris.

Some examples of particulate pollution are dusts, soot, dirt, smoke, etc.

Basically, various anthropogenic activities such as construction and agriculture are primary sources of particulate matter because they're capable of causing particle pollution on their own. The other sources of particle pollution is the secondary source which includes factories, cars, trucks, etc.

Review lines 355-375. Explain how this conflict might have taught an important lesson in the culture of the Ancient Greeks.

Answers

Hello. You did not provide the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly the same as yours, which featured the text "Black Ships Before Troy." If that's your case, I hope the answer below can help you.

Answer:

This conflict may have shown ancient Greeks that the women of a people should not be abducted and that the request of the priests should always be heeded.

Explanation:

The conflict to which lines 355-375 refer, was caused by the Greek god Apollo, who caused a great fever among Greek soldiers, by throwing pestilent arrows towards them. This conflict happened because the daughter of Apollo's priest was kidnapped by Agamemnon. The priest begged Agamemnon to release his daughter and promised that he would pay the price that was for her. However, Agamemnon refused to release the girl, expelled the priest, and cursed him very severely.

This made Apollo angry and teach the Greeks a lesson. This lesson showed that the mulehres of any region must be respected and that the priests of any god must be heard, attended and respected.
