Come Up From the Fields, Father
excerpt from Drum-Taps
by Walt Whitman

Come up from the fields father, here’s a letter from our Pete,
And come to the front door mother, here’s a letter from thy
dear son.

Lo, ’tis autumn,
Lo, where the trees, deeper green, yellower and redder,
Cool and sweeten Ohio’s villages, with leaves fluttering in the
moderate wind,
Where apples ripe in the orchards hang and grapes on the
trellis’d vines,
(Smell you the smell of the grapes on the vines?
Smell you the buckwheat where the bees were lately buzzing?)

Above all, lo, the sky so calm, so transparent after the rain, and with
wondrous clouds,
Below too, all calm, all vital and beautiful, and the farm
prospers well.

Down in the fields all prospers well,
But now from the fields come father, come at the daughter’s call,
And come to the entry mother, to the front door come right away.

Fast as she can she hurries, something ominous, her steps trembling,
She does not tarry to smooth her hair nor adjust her cap.

Open the envelope quickly,
O this is not our son’s writing, yet his name is sign’d,
O a strange hand writes for our dear son, O stricken
mother’s soul!
All swims before her eyes, flashes with black, she catches the
main words only,
Sentences broken, gunshot wound in the breast, cavalry
skirmish, taken to hospital,
At present low, but will soon be better.

Ah now the single figure to me,
Amid all teeming and wealthy Ohio with all its cities and
farms,
Sickly white in the face and dull in the head, very faint,
By the jamb of a door leans.

Grieve not so, dear mother, (the just-grown daughter speaks
through her sobs,
The little sisters huddle around speechless and dismay’d,)
See, dearest mother, the letter says Pete will soon be better.

Alas poor boy, he will never be better, (nor maybe needs to be
better, that brave and simple soul,)
While they stand at home at the door he is dead already,
The only son is dead.

But the mother needs to be better,
She with thin form presently drest in black,
By day her meals untouch’d, then at night fitfully sleeping,
often waking,
In the midnight waking, weeping, longing with one deep
longing,
O that she might withdraw unnoticed, silent from life escape
and withdraw,
To follow, to seek, to be with her dear dead son.

In at least 100 words, compare two sub-categories of American Romantic literature. Use details from the passages to support your response.

Answers

Romanticism in America was a movement that arose slowly, developed in many ways. It went through many phases and it was practiced by many writers that when we give a simple definition we tend to be "slippery". It started approximately in 1820 and lasted until about 1865 with the end of the civil war and the beginning of realism. The romanticism arose as new settlers were confronted with the new realities of a new life in a land that was vast and completely different. The ideas that marked romantism were humanitarianism, democracy, equality, abolition, utopian ideals, the noble savage , dignity of common man , primitivism , the nature of  good or evil, conflict between spirit and body , mysticism, pantheism, transcendentalism , gothicism , abnormal psychology, exotic settings--time and place, nature as symbol of Divine , faith vs, doubt , organic unity, individual soul as as part of the greater soul of God , great chain of being , Individualism . There were many sub categories and many genres but in a nutshell I would say that two writers are very representative of  this period Edgar Allan Poe who wrote mainly about fiction. His narrations and poetry were so vivid and terrifying as you can see in this quote of the the raven: " And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting  on the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;   And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming,   And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;  And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor    Shall be lifted—nevermore! "

Another great writer of this period was Harriet Beecher Stowe who wrote the fiction novel Uncle Tom's Cabin. The importance of this novel is related to the feelings that generated in all the corners of the new nation. When uncles' Tom is described as a good, steady, sensible, pious fellow, I am pretty sure there were many self made men in America that identified with him.



American Romanticism, except precedents like William Cullen Bryant, provided a great writer and poet, Edgar Allan Poe, precursor of one of the fundamental currents of Post-Romanticism, Symbolism, renovator of the Gothic narrative and creator of the detective story, and James Fenimore Cooper (disciple of the historical novels of Scott), whose great subject is the novel of pioneers. It can be considered a post-romantic to the most original anarchist thinker Henry David Thoreau, introducer of ideas ahead of his time such as nonviolence and environmentalism, author of Walden or Life in the woods and the famous essay On Civil Disobedience. In the United States there is also talk of a group of essayists under the name of Transcendentalism that includes Ralph Waldo Emerson and Thoreau.

What things will people in the future say about how we live now?
at least seven sentences

Answers

People in the future will probably think we was so stupid because they are gonna have vehicles that fly and our vehicles are on the ground. Maybe they’ll think we’re cool because we are the ones that have fun and live life. You really don’t know what people will say about us in the future until the future happens. It is very possible that the future is still the same way that it is now, or maybe there will be no future, you never know. With the president we have right now and the way he is running things isn’t really the best with our world, but hey what ever he thinks is right and the smartest decisions are up to him.


People in the future will possibly see us as being in a time of transition. We They would most likely see us in a transition politically, technologically, socially and maybe even ethically.

Think about how you see people that lived 20, 50, 100, 500, 1000 years ago.

Whatever way you see those people is going to be very similar to how future people will see us. For example, here's how I see people of the past (various times/cultures):

-They were behind us in many types of technology- transportation, utilities (there are some exceptions to this), scientifically, medically, art, communication, production (especially mass production, though there are some exceptions).

-The past people were required to participate physically more than we are in their day to day lives as well as in transportation, production, construction etc.

-While there were people in the past that were concerned about more than their village, town, state, country, continent, we are able to see a bigger picture than they did. So it would only be normal that future people would have a bigger picture that maybe we can't even imagine now (planet, solar system, galaxy etc).

-Also, people of the past were more narrow-minded and less aware of the multitude of the different types of people that live on this planet.

Future people may realize how ignorant it was for people in our era to even believe in some of the things that we do right now...Like "Flat Earthers," people already knew that the Earth was round at least 500 years ago.

We may even be thought of as the "doubting" era or "conspiracy" era. That's not to say that people didn't feel that way before now, but even with our age of technology and communication, people still will deny truths that have been proven true.

I also think that future people might take some issue with religion. Many religions are very similar, but for even thousands of years, we keep denying their similarities. I hope that future people will be less discriminatory and more accepting of  other ways of thought.

We have no exact idea of what future people will be like. There is the possibility that in the future people will be like some of the stories and movies that exist now. We might become a more joined (socially, ethically etc) world, a more military world, or a world of less individuality. All of those changes will color how people look back at us.

When are semicolons correctly and effectively used? when joining clauses about separate ideas into one sentence when connecting related but independent clauses of a sentence when introducing an idea in one clause that the other clause describes when linking clauses with a coordinating conjunction such as and or but NextReset

Answers

To my mind, the correct answer is “when connecting related but independent clauses of a sentence”. Semicolons are used to relate two independent clauses in the same sentence by introducing in some instances transition words (example “; therefore,”) or without connectors at all. However, the independent clauses are separated by a semicolon, they are closely related in thought.

Answers

One irresponsible person is one that can not be dependable.

If something was written in symbols and not in normal alphabet, it means that it is encoded.

To say that somethig is irrelevant is to consider that it is not related to the subject,  it's not important and does not apply.

To be invincible is to be one that cannot be conquered.

 Illaudable is the adjective used for someone or something that is not worthy of praise.



Final answer:

The correct matching of the words and their meanings is 1. Irresponsible - Not dependable, 2. Encoded - Written in symbols, 3. Invincible - Cannot be conquered, 4. Irrelevant - Does not apply, 5. Illaudable - Not worthy of praise.

Explanation:

The matching of words and their meanings can bring clarity to many English language nuances. Here, the pairings are: 1. Irresponsible - Not dependable, as irresponsible individuals cannot be relied upon. 2. Encoded - Written in symbols, represents that encoded things are often written in different symbols to hide the true content. 3. Invincible - Cannot be conquered, the word invincible relates to something or someone that cannot be defeated. 4. Irrelevant - Does not apply, indicates things that are not applicable or related to a particular subject or context. And, 5. Illaudable - Not worthy of praise, means that the task or achievement isn't worthy of applause or recognition.

Conductors on the railroads were people who guided escaped slaves to free northern states.

The enslaved African American used these secret paths, called Underground Railroad, to escape to the free states and Canada.

The name, Underground Railroad, is just a symbolic representation, otherwise there was no such underground routes or even railroads. The who network was working secretly, so it was named as underground, and because people were escaping through certain paths, it was called as railroads.

Answers

This happened to me a few years ago when I was on holiday in Meia Praia, a small town near the beach in Brazil.

My boyfriend and I wanted to go walking through the forest because it was a wonderful sunny day. We started walking early in the morning. While we were walking we listened to a strange sound several times, but we didn´t care about it. As we were nearer the beach which was on the coast of the Island, that sound was stronger. In the middle of our way to the beach, a couple warned us about the wild monkeys which live there, but we didn´t care about it, neither.

When we were just some meters from the beach, we felt that noise behind us and at the same time a big monkey appeared in front of us. It was a harmless animal which made a strong noise because it was afraid of people. Unfortunately, we didn´t know that these species lived there and we could have made him to get annoy.  

Since then, we learned to pay attention to the signs of nature.


Preparing the soil is perhaps the hardest and most boring part of planting a garden, but it is the first and possibly the most important step. Before anything else can be done, the area to be planted must be dug up, spaded at least a foot deep, and made ready to receive the seeds. Using a pointed shovel and a spading fork, dig down a minimum of twelve inches. Turn the soil and, with your hands, pick out rocks, pieces of glass, sticks, and all other foreign matter. Work the whole area down to the proper depth, breaking down the large clods and pulling out roots and other plant parts. This is a good time to work well-rotted manure or other fertilizer, sand, and peat moss into the soil. Dig and mix all these elements in well with the soil; then rake the area smooth and level.

Now that the garden area is worked, enriched, and leveled, you may plan where you will plant the various vegetables. Plan to put the tall plants, such as corn, in a position where they will not shade the rest of the garden too much. Squash and tomato vines should be kept well away from leafy vegetables so they do not choke each other out. You can plant root vegetables fairly close together. If you crowd them, however, they will become deformed. Plan the layout of your garden on a paper, or refer to plans that appear every spring in home magazines. Planting is an art; planning is the start.

Read the excerpt below from the myth of Pandora and answer the question that follows. Woman was not yet made. The story (absurd enough!) is that Jupiter made her, and sent her to Prometheus and his brother, to punish them for their presumption in stealing fire from heaven; and man, for accepting the gift. The first woman was named Pandora. She was made in heaven, every god contributing something to perfect her. Venus gave her beauty, Mercury persuasion, Apollo music, etc. Thus equipped, she was conveyed to earth, and presented to Epimetheus, who gladly accepted her, though cautioned by his brother to beware of Jupiter and his gifts. Epimetheus had in his house a jar, in which were kept certain noxious articles, for which, in fitting man for his new abode, he had had no occasion. Pandora was seized with an eager curiosity to know what this jar contained; and one day she slipped off the cover and looked in. Forthwith there escaped a multitude of plagues for hapless man,—such as gout, rheumatism, and colic for his body, and envy, spite, and revenge for his mind,—and scattered themselves far and wide. Pandora hastened to replace the lid! but, alas! the whole contents of the jar had escaped, one thing only excepted, which lay at the bottom, and that was hope. So we see at this day, whatever evils are abroad, hope never entirely leaves us; and while we have that, no amount of other ills can make us completely wretched. Source: Bulfinch, Thomas. "Prometheus and Pandora." Bartleby.com. Bartleby.com, 2011. Web. 07 Mar. 2011. Which theme can a reader derive from the story of Pandora? Pandora disobeyed the gods and shouldn't have opened the jar. Everyone should beware of gifts from the gods and never open a gift without permission. Women are too curious about hidden things and need to control their curiosity. Even though life may be hard, we can still have hope for something better.

Answers

If the reader expects to derive a moral theme from the previous story, an explanation would be that we must beware of gifts made by gods and never open a gift without permission. However, this is not completely the point since all kinds of plagues for humanity escaped the jar, but hope still remained inside and never left. The famous and traditional saying,But even though life can be hard, we can still hope for something better. So, hope can always be clung onto when we are going through hardship!

Final answer:

The theme derived from the myth of Pandora is that despite life's numerous challenges, hope endures and prevents complete despair.

Explanation:

From the story of Pandora, a reader can derive the theme that even though life may present many hardships and challenges, symbolized by the plagues that escape from the jar, there is always hope for something better, which remains in the jar. This theme reflects the notion that no matter the extent of suffering, the presence of hope can sustain human spirits and prevent complete wretchedness. The tale does not primarily aim to convey messages about disobedience, mistrust of divine gifts, or unbridled curiosity as the primary lessons, but rather emphasizes the enduring presence of hope amidst adversity.

Qualities of strong relationships.

In a lifetime, a person will associate with many people, building stronger bonds with some friends or family members over others. over time, some relationships will grow while others fade. what qualities do you think promote healthier, longer-lasting relationships?

Write an essay that describes the qualities you think can best support a strong relationship. use examples from your own life and texts you have read to support your explanation.

Answers

Two of the most important qualities in healthy, long-lasting relationships are communication and vulnerability.

Communication involves both transparency to talk about anything which praises or challenges the relationship as well as close attention to listen and internalize feedback. Open, judgement-free communication allows people to feel meaningful and respected as it promotes personal growth through good disposition to let feedback shape us. Therefore, a sense of stability is created which encourages preference for one such relationship over many others lacking these essential elements.

Vulnerability is the act of allowing others to see our true self, (weaknesses, fears and needs included) as well as that of opening trust channels to let others show us theirs. Vulnerability allows people to feel a deeper level of emotional involvement which increases positive attachment in any relationship. It is not easy to accomplish given our drive for self-preservation which naturally avoids potential emotional pain after a let down. However, only by incresingly putting our guard down and creating healthy spaces for others to put down theirs can we assure a relationship to stand the test of time.

Communication and vulnerability contribute to healthy, long lasting relationships.

Final answer:

The qualities that support a strong relationship include social support, positivity, and mutual respect and understanding. Social support fosters health and happiness, positivity cultivates fulfilling relationships, and mutual respect and understanding allow all parties to flourish.

Explanation:

The most important qualities supporting a strong relationship include social support, positivity, and the presence of mutual respect and understanding. Social support involves providing comfort, advice, and help in times of distress and sorrow, fostering better health and happiness in individuals as highlighted in Figures 14.23 (a) and (b). Positivity and happiness, on the other hand, foster fulfilling relationships as shown by a number of studies. Couples who report being happier tend to also report that their marriages are fulfilling. Similarly, cultivating positive relationships with significant others, such as spouses, children, and parents, contributes to a state of well-being.

Mutual respect and understanding allow both parties in the relationship to flourish. Examples of this can be seen in Confucian ethics that shed light on fundamental relationships and Aristotle’s views on perfect friendship. These relationships, which are based on mutual respect and virtue, allow individuals involved to thrive both personally and socially.

Read the excerpt from "A Genetics of Justice” by Julia Alvarez.
During my early teen years in this country, I knew very little about what was actually going on in the Dominican Republic. Whenever Ia situación on the island came up, my parents spoke in hushed voices. In December 1960, four months after our arrival, Time magazine reported the murder of the three Mirabal sisters, who along with their husbands had started the national underground Dominican Republic. My parents confiscated the magazine. To our many questions about what was going on, my mother always had the ready answer, "En boca cerrada no entran moscas.” No flies fly into a closed mouth. Later, I found out that this very saying had been scratched on the lintel of the entrance of the SIM's torture center at La Cuarenta.

What is the central idea of this paragraph?

A)The author's parents gave the same responses to questions about the Dominican Republic.
B)The author's parents were afraid to discuss murders or events in the Dominican Republic.
C)The author had little interest in the politics or events of the Dominican Republic.
D)The author wanted to focus on life in a new country, not the Dominican Republic

Answers

The answer is B) The author's parents were afraid to discuss murders or events in the Dominican Republic.

The central idea of the excerpt is shown through expressions such as "hushed voices", "No flies fly into a closed mouth", which express the fear the author's parents felt of talking about the facts and, because of that, being associated with them. Since the Dominican Republic was under a dictatorship, people feared being killed by even discussing what was happening to the resistence and the insurgents who were indeed killed by the regime. As it happens in countries under dictatorial regimes, people are tortured and murdered even if there is no evidence of their plotting against the government. Suspicion is enough to have them assassinated.

Explanation:

We envision a world where we no longer take from the Earth, but rather use its enormous ability to regenerate. Tell us why you think working towards a more sustainable future is important and how you could use that mentality to impact your school, community, or the world.

Answers

I think working towards a sustainable future is important because, if we make a better world today , we make a better world for the next generation. We can make the world a better place to live if we look outside and feel the freshness, the beauty and nature of the world. We can't buy a new world, but we can make a new world. We can start doing good things in different places. We can show the others that the world is more than a lump of clay with volcanoes ,oceans and seas. It is a home, a fantasy and a total beauty. We can also start planting more trees and making the street clean. Be eco friendly and put an article in the newspaper. Who knows, people might help to make the world a better place for the future, just like stories with a happy ending.

Read the passage from chapter 2 of Animal Farm.

The pigs had an even harder struggle to counteract the lies put about by Moses, the tame raven. Moses, who was Mr. Jones's especial pet, was a spy and a tale-bearer, but he was also a clever talker. He claimed to know of the existence of a mysterious country called Sugarcandy Mountain, to which all animals went when they died. It was situated somewhere up in the sky, a little distance beyond the clouds, Moses said. In Sugarcandy Mountain it was Sunday seven days a week, clover was in season all the year round, and lump sugar and linseed cake grew on the hedges. The animals hated Moses because he told tales and did no work, but some of them believed in Sugarcandy Mountain, and the pigs had to argue very hard to persuade them that there was no such place.

Which prediction does this passage best support?

A) Moses and his stories will complicate the pigs’ control over the other animals.
B) The pigs will adopt Moses’s ideas and promote them on Animal Farm.
C) Moses will die and end up on Sugarcandy Mountain, thus proving its existence.
D) The animals will demand that Moses leave the farm and will force him out.

Answers

a is this answer i think

{Is that Jeno??? because if it is Y A S girl!}

I think the answer is A, at the end of the passage it says "and the pigs had to argue very hard to persuade them that there was no such place"

The pigs were talking or arguing with the animals that believed in Sugarcandy Mountain, this can complicate the pigs control over the other animals; if they believe in in such things like Sugarcandy Mountain who knows what they will believe next?

Hope this kinda helps!

Going Underground
Clark Benson

1Hello, I’m Professor Williams and I teach at Northeast University. Today, I’m here to talk with you about coalmines. Coalmines are one of this area’s most treasured and historical sites. In fact, the mine site attracts visitors and tourists from around the country, giving the nation a peek into our small town. I call it our small town because this is where I was born and raised. Although I eventually moved away to attend college, I came back often to see family and friends. As a child, my parents first took me to see the coalmines and mining museum when I was 11 years old.

2I had already known what to expect once we got there since I had read Nathan Connor’s book, Exploring the Mines several times growing up. In his book, he compares the underground mines to a massive cave, waiting to be explored (Connor 45). I must say, with my first visit to the coalmines, that’s exactly the feeling I got as the mine elevator slowly took us down into the dark, cool underground maze. I can still remember squinting to try to adjust to the darkness, and even feeling a little scared inside as we went down that first time.

3I visited the coalmines several times after that, either with my family, or through school trips. However, once I graduated from high school, it would be another 10 years before I returned. This time, I was seeing the mines as a teacher of history, and I used my return visit to do research for a book I was working on about the coalmines.

4It may sound funny, but I still got those same mixed feelings of fear and excitement as the elevator took me down into the cool underground. But once I got out my pen and paper, and the tour guide started to fill me in on what he knew about the mine and its history, it was all business. Much of the machinery and tools the miners had used were still down there. In fact, my tour guide was even using an original “coal oil” lamp to light our way through the mines. The coal oil lamps were one of the most important pieces of equipment to the miners, and each miner had his own special lamp (Johnson 79).

5I had started my research on the mines with the goal of writing about the mine itself; the look and feel of the mine, and the coal it produced that helped fuel machinery and heat homes. However, in the end, my book ended up being more about the miners than the mines. Most miners endured long and hard hours of working underground, and without receiving much pay. Perhaps Marybeth Anderson said it best when she called the underground mines, “a great place to visit, but not somewhere I’d want to work” (Anderson 121).

6I couldn’t agree more.

Which word best completes this analogy? Falsehood: truth as unfairness A inequality B deception C justice D belief

Answers

Answer:

Justice

Explanation:

I think they are antonyms

The word that best completes the analogy 'Falsehood: truth as unfairness : ______' is 'justice.' This is because the relationship is one of opposition; falsehood opposes truth, and unfairness opposes justice. The correct option is C.

The word that best completes the analogy Falsehood: truth as unfairness : __________ is justice. This analogy is based on the relationship of opposition. Falsehood is the opposite of truth, similarly, unfairness is the opposite of justice. Since unfairness is defined as a lack of fairness or equity, the concept of justice, which aims to provide fairness and equity, stands in direct opposition to it.

It is noteworthy that even though the words inequality and deception are often associated with unfairness, they do not complete the analogy in the same manner as justice does here. Inequality can be a result of unfairness but is not its direct opposite, and deception is more closely related to the idea of falsehood but does not have a necessary relationship to unfairness.

Therefore, by understanding the nature of an analogy, which pairs words based on similar relationships, we identify that justice is the term that best fills the gap and preserves the parallel structure of the analogy being presented.

Read the excerpt from “Some Nonsense About a Dog” and answer the question.

A vet. once opined that for a mongrel he was a good dog, that a black cocker mother had thrown her cap over Scottish mills, so to speak. This analysis accounted for him perfectly. Always, depending on the moment's mood, he was either terrier or spaniel, the snap and scrap and perk of the one alternating with the gentle snuggling indolence of the other.

As terrier he would dig furiously by the hour after a field mouse; as spaniel he would “read” the breeze with the best nose among the dog folk of our neighborhood, or follow a trail quite well.

Which describes the effect the use of figurative language has on the tone of this excerpt? Select all that apply:

By including Nibbie among the "dog folk," the author suggests an attitude of approval.

By speculating about Nibbie's genetic makeup, the author conveys a contemplative tone.

By referencing Nibbie's persistence, the author conveys a proud tone.

By giving Nibbie's nose the ability to "'read' the breeze," the author suggests an attitude of respect.

By including the vet's description of Nibbie, the author communicates an affectionate tone.

By describing the differences between a terrier and a spaniel, the author implies an ironic tone

By categorizing this particular mongrel as "a good dog" the author indicates an attitude of surprise.

Answers

Hello!

The effects of using the figurative language that is described in the story are:

By speculating about his genetic makeup, the author conveys a contemplative tone.

By referencing his persistence, the author conveys a proud tone

By describing the differences between a terrier and a spaniel, the author implies an ironic tone.

Argument:

The author tends to use plenty of metaphors and similes with a tendency of contradiction. For example, when the author compares a spaniel and a terrier gives the reader a metaphor of how different these races are between each other but at the same time, he shows how valuable is Nibble, the mongrel dog.

Final answer:

The figurative language in the excerpt contributes to a tone that is affectionate, respectful, and approving of the dog, suggesting an attitude of inclusion, contemplation, and admiration.

Explanation:

The use of figurative language in the excerpt has a notable effect on the tone of the text. By including Nibbie among the "dog folk," the author employs a friendly and communal tone, suggesting that Nibbie is an accepted part of a larger community. When the author speculates about Nibbie's genetic makeup, a reflective and contemplative tone is conveyed, indicating a thoughtful consideration of Nibbie's heritage. Lastly, by giving Nibbie's nose the ability to 'read' the breeze, the author imparts a sense of admiration and respect for Nibbie's sensory capabilities. These instances of figurative language contribute to a tone that is overall affectionate, respectful, and approving of the dog's characteristics.
