Lacrosse: Then and Now
In the past, lacrosse also served to vent aggression, and territorial disputes between tribes were sometimes settled with a game, although not always amicably. A Creek versus Choctaw game around 1790 to determine rights over a beaver pond broke out into a violent battle when the Creeks were declared winners.The game of lacrosse became known when European missionaries began visiting North American Men in the 1600s, US Lacrosse states. The very first lacrosse equipment used by Native Americans included a wooden carved stick with a small pocket at the end, according to LacrosseCentral.com. The rules, equipment and playing style of lacrosse differed between various tribes in North America. Europeans began playing lacrosse during the 1800s. Europeans residing in Canada caught onto the game during this time, forming teams through the Montreal Olympic Club to play lacrosse games against Native American teams in 1844, 1848 and 1851. In 1856, the Montreal Lacrosse Club was established and produced the first official rules for the sport. A dentist named George Beers revised the rules in 1867, and also refined the lacrosse stick's design and introduced the use of a hard rubber ball instead of one made from deerskin stuffed with hair. Throughout the 1900s, lacrosse equipment continued to evolve in leaps and bounds, with the emergence of aluminum sticks with plastic pocket frames and protective pads for players. By 2005, lacrosse was deemed the fastest-growing sport in North America for all ages

Which correctly reflects a conflict of character vs
character?
O The weather has been filled with lightning and wind
making travel difficult.
O Antony and Octavius must join forces to win in battle
against the combined forces of Brutus and Cassius.
O Ocatvius is doubting his own abilities to be equal to
Antony in his leadership.
O Cassius and Octavius have both worked to turn
society against the cause of the other.
Answer:
B. Antony and Octavius must join forces to win in battle against the combined forces of Brutus and Cassius.
(Photo for proof below)
Here's the missing passage to this question:
[ANTONY.] And now, Octavius,
Listen great things—Brutus and Cassius
Are levying powers. We must straight make head.
Therefore let our alliance be combined,
Our best friends made, our means stretched,
And let us presently go sit in council,
How covert matters may be best disclosed,
And open perils surest answerèd.
OCTAVIUS. Let us do so: for we are at the stake,
And bayed about with many enemies;
And some that smile have in their hearts, I fear,
Millions of mischiefs.
Explanation:
When Antony says "Brutus and Cassius are levying powers," this tells us that they have joined forces. He also says "Therefore let our alliance be combined," which means that he wants Octavius and himself to combine forces against Brutus and Cassius. This is a good example of character vs character because in this scene, characters are going against other characters. A is wrong because it is an example of character vs nature, as the description of weather says so. C is wrong because Octavius actually is willing to rule with Antony against Brutus and Cassius. Honestly, I don't know what D means, but it doesn't sound right. Society is not mentioned in this passage. It is also wrong on Edge.
Here's a photo confirming the right answer on Edge incase you're doubtful of my answer.
Please click the heart if this helped.
The statement which correctly reflects a conflict of character vs character is Antony and Octavius must join forces to win in battle against the combined forces of Brutus and Cassius.
What are the characteristics of Brutus and Cassius?
Antony says Brutus and Cassius are imposing powers, this lets us know that they have worked together. He likewise says Along these lines let our collusion be consolidated, and that implies that he believes Octavius and himself should join powers against Brutus and Cassius.
This is a genuine illustration of character versus character on the grounds that in this scene, characters are conflicting with different characters.
An isn't right since it is an illustration of character versus nature, as the depiction of weather conditions says as much. C isn't right in light of the fact that Octavius really will lead with Antony against Brutus and Cassius.

: compare the setting of the road is taking to the Railway train. How are the settings alike.
: Contrast the setting of the Road is taking to the Railway train. How are the settings different and why is the setting important in each poem.
Answer:
I'm going to start off by saying that I'm answering this assuming that the two stories you're referring to are "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost and "The Railway Train" by Emily Dickinson because these are two famous pieces and it's likely that you are referring to them.
Now, onto the comparing! Both of these stories are set in a natural, and people-free, almost lonely sort of environment. They both focus on a certain thing, whether it be a path or a train, in an environment with grass, meadows, mountains, and other such things while neglecting to mention anything relating to people. The lonely setting only serves to support the poems though, as they draw more focus to their main ideas.
These poems are different because while "The Road Not Taken" focuses on just a smaller area, a fork in a road, "The Railway Train" describes a train using personification as it moves along a whole countryside. The more pinpointed and focused setting of "The Road Not Taken" helps the reader understand what a vital, focused moment it was in the author's life it was, when they decided to choose the less-worn path. In "The Railway Train," the wider setting of a whole countryside that describes a meandering train evokes a sort of awe in the reader because it's almost like describing an adventure. This way of describing the path of the train in a wider setting helps the reader understand why the author likes watching the trains so much.
Some children are so poor that they cannot pay their school fees.(Use,too)
Answer:
Some children are too poor to pay their school fees.
Explanation:
In the original sentence, the use of "so" is an adjective that described the condition/ quality of the children's life. Added to that, the pronoun "they" is used to refer to the 'students' and also give the effect for the cause given.
To change the given sentence using the adverb "too" before an adjective without a noun. This will also enable the sentence to be made shorter, thereby making the use of "that they cannot" redundant.
Thus, the new sentence will become
Some children are too poor to pay their school fees.
