"They have made worms' meat of me" reflects the blame Mercutio places on them and wishes a plague to fall on them.

Which of the following is not related to the setting in Gulliver’s Travels? A. Gulliver is educated in sailing. B. Gulliver left Bristol, England. C. Gulliver’s business is failing and he’s broke. D. Gulliver’s voyage begins May 4, 1699.

Answers

In my opinion, the correct answer is A. Gulliver is educated in sailing. The setting means context, time and place. The fact that Gulliver has this or that personal trait (e.g. he is educated in sailing) contributes to the characterization, and not the setting. All the other facts are about the setting.

Read the passage from “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.”

Mrs. Flowers had known that I would be embarrassed and that was even worse. I picked up the groceries and went out to wait in the hot sunshine. It would be fitting if I got a sunstroke and died before they came outside. Just dropped dead on the slanting porch.

There was a little path beside the rocky road, and Mrs. Flowers walked in front swinging her arms and picking her way over the stones.

She said, without turning her head, to me, "I hear you're doing very good school work, Marguerite, but that it's all written. The teachers report that they have trouble getting you to talk in class." We passed the triangular farm on our left and the path widened to allow us to walk together. I hung back in the separate unasked and unanswerable questions.

"Come and walk along with me, Marguerite." I couldn't have refused even if I wanted to.

Although Marguerite’s thoughts tell the reader directly that she was embarrassed, her actions let the reader infer that she was also .
aAngry

Answers

 Pay attention to this sentence I picked up the groceries and went out to wait in the hot sunshine.
This sentence indicates that even though Marguerite feels embarrassed, she really eager to meet Mrs. Flower to the point where she's taking a risk of getting a sunstroke just to wait for her.

Read Hamlet’s description of his mother from Act III of Hamlet. And melt in her own fire: proclaim no shame When the compulsive ardour gives the charge, Since frost itself as actively doth burn, And reason panders will. What motif is used in these lines? heat and coldness, love and hate, mother-child relationships, passionate relationships

Answers

This description would have the heat and coldness motif. The idea might be to contrast her action, her duality. On the one hand she might represent the "heat" because she seems to be burnt by her own decision and "coldness" because she seems to be detached and shameless. 

The motif in these lines is heat and coldness.

What is a motif?A motif is a concept that is repeated within a narrative.In the text above, we can see the idea of the contrast between hot and cold is repeated during the quote, thus being an example of a motif.

The passage above uses the motif to highlight the duality and inconstancy that Hamlet sees in his mother. This shows the reader how Hamlet's mother confuses him and how her actions are contradictory, confused, and different.

Answers

The effect that this response has on the speaker is that the speaker’s mental state shifts more and more toward madness. 
The raven is constantly repeating the same word - nevermore. In the beginning, the narrator just thought it was a weird coincidence that the bird should say that one single word, but as time passes by, the weight of that word becomes unbearable as the narrator realizes that this word can be applied to all of his questions. So as time goes by, the narrator becomes more and more depressed about not being allowed to see his beloved and thus he falls into madness.

Which best explains what the Prince's lead heart symbolizes?

(A) a greedy and cold-hearted life
(B) an honest and giving spirit
(C) a heartless world of ruthless ambition
(D) the pointlessness of giving to others

Answers

D I believe is the correct answer. I hope this helped u

The Prince's lead heart best symbolizes a 'heartless world of ruthless ambition' (C), where moral values are predicated on power and respect for strength, rather than the compassionate virtues of a 'warm heart.'

The Prince's lead heart symbolizes a view of morality associated with power and nobility, prevalent in a society which respects strength and devalues weakness. Within this moral framework, the heart is not swayed by sympathy or altruism, which are seen as virtues of a different morality—one that esteems selflessness and kindness. Instead, the lead heart represents a sternness and an indifference to those of lower status or outside one's equal societal circle. It embodies the concept that one may act according to one's own desires, 'beyond good and evil,' with duties only to one's equals and a certain disregard for others.

In light of the provided references, the Prince's lead heart is best explained by option (C), a 'heartless world of ruthless ambition,' where moral values are decided by power and status, and sympathy for the lower ranks or outsiders is not a considered virtue. It denotes a societal structure that values strength, power, and strategic reciprocity within its own echelons above the 'warm heart' of altruism.

31. If you get a headache or dizziness while sitting in a car with the engine running, you could be suffering from ___________ A. carbon monoxide poisoning. B. smog sickness. C. a hangover.

Answers

If you get a headache or dizziness while sitting in a car with the engine running, you could be suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning. Thus, the correct answer is option A.

What is carbon monoxide poisoning?

When carbon monoxide levels in your bloodstream rise, carbon monoxide poisoning happens. Your body replaces the oxygen in your red blood cells with carbon monoxide when there is too much carbon monoxide in the air. Serious tissue damage or even death may result from this.

A dull headache, weakness, dizziness, nausea, or vomiting are some of the warning signs and symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning. Shortness of breath is another.

People who are asleep or intoxicated are most prone to carbon monoxide poisoning. Before anyone recognizes there is an issue, people may experience irreversible brain damage or perhaps pass away.

Therefore, getting a  headache or dizziness while sitting in a car with the engine running is a symptom of carbon monoxide poisoning.

In my opinion, the best option would be D. Attach the fragment to sentence (1). We could attach this fragment to the sentence (1) by adding a dash between them. If we wanted to make a standalone sentence of this fragment, we would have to add both a subject and a verb to it (e.g. It is the most popular purebred breed in the United States, in fact). If we wanted to attach the fragment to the sentence (3), we would have to add a subject and a verb to it, and make a compound sentence, using a coordinator - as it would have two subjects and predicates (e.g. It is the most popular purebred breed in the United States, and/whereas/while the second most popular breed is the Yorkshire terrier.)

Based on that definition, you can see that the answer is, "D".

I hope this helped.

Take care,
Diana

The characteristic of biased reading material is that the author has strong feelings about the subject matter and so the correct option is Option D.

A characteristic of biased reading material is that the author has strong feelings about the subject matter. This may manifest through the selection of sources that favor the author's viewpoint, the use of exaggerated language, and a failure to fairly consider counterarguments. The presence of bias in text can skew the reader's perception, leading to the undue influence of one perspective over another, especially in topics that are controversial or highly debated.Bias can occur when a seemingly objective source contains language and content designed to persuade rather than inform, which might include a selective presentation of facts or a skewed tone. Objective writing, in contrast, typically features an even representation of well‑documented facts and maintains a neutral tone without evident persuasion attempts.

20 points!!!Explain the different viewpoints of Frederick Douglass and Captain Canot regarding slavery. (If you know the book Captain cannot is in that would be awesome)

Answers

Frederick wanted freedom for slaves and Captain Canot did not. Slaves were not allowed to learn. Auld tells his wife not to teach Douglass how to read and write. He believes having an education will ruin him as a slave. It is from Hugh Auld that Douglass learns the idea that knowledge is a path to freedom. 

 

Douglass sees that Auld has unwittingly revealed the strategy by which “whites” manage to keep “blacks” as slaves and by which “blacks” might free themselves. Douglass presents his own self-education as the primary means by which he is able to free himself, and as his greatest tool to work for the freedom of all slaves. He devoted the bulk of his time, immense talent, and boundless energy to ending slavery and gaining equal rights for African Americans.

 

These were the central concerns of his long reform career. Douglass understood that the struggle for emancipation and equality demanded forceful, persistent, and unyielding agitation. After Douglass escaped, he wanted to promote freedom for all slaves. He published a newspaper in Rochester, New York, called The North Star. It got its name because slaves escaping at night followed the North Star in the sky to freedom.

We brought the ducks and geese small pieces of bread. What is the direct and indirect object in the sentence

Answers

Final answer:

The sentence 'We brought the ducks and geese small pieces of bread' contains 'small pieces of bread' as the direct object because it is what is being brought, and 'the ducks and geese' as the indirect object because they are the recipients of the bread.

Explanation:

To determine the direct and indirect objects in the sentence 'We brought the ducks and geese small pieces of bread,' first, we need to find the subject and the verb. The subject of the sentence is 'we,' and the verb is 'brought,' which is a transitive verb because it is an action that is being done to something or someone else. The direct object is what is being acted upon directly by the verb, which in this case is 'small pieces of bread' because that is what is being brought. The indirect object is who or what is receiving the direct object, and here it is 'the ducks and geese' because they are the recipients of the small pieces of bread.
