Read the following stanza from "Loveliest of Trees, the Cherry Now," by A. E.
Housman.
Now, of my threescore years and ten,
Twenty will not come again,
And take from seventy springs a score,
It only leaves me fifty more.
What tone does the poet create through his word choice in this stanza?
A. Joyful
O B. Comforting
O C. Reflective
D. Unkind
PREVIOUS

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Reflective

Explanation:

A reflective mood is one that is characterized by deep thoughts. The poet in this stanza thinks deeply of the remaining number of years he has left to spend on earth. This is a sober thought because it makes one think back on the past years spent and how they were spent. It also brings the sudden realization that the person now has limited time and must make the best use of it.

Therefore, the tone created by the poet is a reflective one.

Write debate supporting the motion Should Parents decide le Course of Study for for their children"​

Answers

Answer:

  Desire of parents — Every teen should be more grateful to his or her parents in this world. Parents are the ones who suffer a lot of difficulties and bring up their kids so that they can live a healthy and happier life. Every parent wants to see their children well settled in their life. Thus, they have the right to choose a better career for their kids.

  Reduces the pressure on children — Thinking of making a suitable career takes on a serious note mostly during the application times. So, children should leave the choice of their career on their parents and focus on the ongoing exams. They should not be under pressure in anyways.

  Maturity — Teens may sometimes land up in taking wrong decisions about their career. Even if parents do not make their career choice, they can at least guide their kids to make a good decision. Parents are the burning candle in the life of a student.

  Support — Parents provide immense help to their kids by guiding and choosing them a right career path. No parents would like to spoil their child's future by taking a wrong decision.

  Experience — We should always remember that parents are much more experienced than the children. They have seen the world better than their kids, and thus, their decision would be better and correct.

  Right Career Choice — Children should choose their career

  Right to choose – Every child has the right to choose their career, and they have the right to live their dreams.

  Knows himself/herself better – A child can only know his or her interests and abilities better than anyone else. They know their subjects and areas of interest and thus, can decide his or her career path quickly.

  Interesting – If children choose a career according to the wishes of their parents, they will have a boring academic life as they would face a lack of interest. College life is the best phase of a student's life. To enjoy this phase and make it more interesting, a child should choose his/her career path.

  Facing pressure – If you follow a career path chosen by your parents and which is not of your interest, you will have to meet a lot of challenges and pressure. To avoid such situations, choose a career which interests you the most.

  Parents like their kids might also have had some dream in their teenage. Most of the parents fail to achieve their goals due to family or financial issues. In such cases, parents may force their kids to adopt their dreams. They try to see themselves in their kids.

  Admission time is a crucial period in the life of most of the students. It is always better that parents and children should decide together on the career they would pursue. Teens can get the information about the latest trends while the parents can get their practical experience to the table to make a decision.

to be cut down between mid-October and December

She's more independent from her family members than is Antigone.

Answers

Answer:

She's timid compared to Antigone, who is very bold.She gives more weight to civil law over moral principles than does Antigone.

Explanation:

Ismene and Antigone are sisters and the daughters of Oedipus. Antigone however, is the bolder of the two and follows mora principles over the law.

Ismene on the other hand, remains in the shadow of her sister as she is more timid because she believes that she has a certain place in society and does not want to ruffle any feathers.

She also tries to follow the law over moral principles as she believes the law to be absolute which is why she does not follow Antigone's plan to bury their brother as she did not want to go against the King's proclamation.

A thousand doors ago
when I was a lonely kid
in a big house with four
garages and it was summer
as long as I could remember,
I lay on the lawn at night,
clover wrinkling over me,
the wise stars bedding over me,
my mother's window a funnel
of yellow heat running out,
my father's window, half shut,
an eye where sleepers pass,
and the boards of the house
were smooth and white as wax
and probably a million leaves
sailed on their strange stalks
as the crickets ticked together
and I, in my brand new body,
which was not a woman's yet,
told the stars my questions
and thought God could really see
the heat and the painted light,
elbows, knees, dreams, goodnight.
