The author states that Irving's is his "most compelling educational tool." Do you agree?

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not provide any reference to answer this question. We do not know the text, the excerpt, the name of the book or article, neither the name of the author. Without that information is difficult to know what you are talking about,

However, trying to help you and doing some deep research, we can comment on the following.

You are referring to the lecture "Barrington Irving; Pilot and Educator," an article from National Geographic.

I agree with the author because the life of Irving is an example of perseverance and determination. Irving is a pilot. But his childhood was a tough one. He was raised in the tough neighborhoods of downtown Miami, Florida.

At 28, he had graduated with honors and built his own plane prototype.

So he is a true example of overcoming obstacles in life and has the authority to give recommendations to students. His main message: "if you are determined and have clear goals, nothing can stop you."

Explain in an essay of at least one hundred words what the metaphor of the mountain represents in the Langston Hughes essay, "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain."

Answers

Answer: Allow me to give you a better answer. Don't copy/paste it, just use it to help you better understand the metaphor :)

The mountain in "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain" is considered as an obstacle for Negro artists who wish for others to recognize their work. This isn't just part of their job, but it's part of a racial dispute because of their color. Langston Hughes, the author, describes these Negro artists as very talented people. These are also people who believe they can make it big as artists, but they wish to be white to do so. Black artists think they can't be accepted as people, let alone artists. So the mountain in the essay represents a huge obstacle these people have to achieve. That obstacle is being accepted by everyone else, and that includes them looking past their color before appreciating their art.

Answers

Answer:

a substance that pollutes something, especially water or the atmosphere.

Explanation:

A pollutant is a substance or energy introduced into the environment that has undesired effects, or adversely affects the usefulness of a resource.

The burning of coal and wood, and the presence of many horses in concentrated areas made the cities the primary sources of pollution. The Industrial Revolution brought an infusion of untreated chemicals and wastes into local streams that served as the water supply. King Edward I of England banned the burning of sea-coal by proclamation in London in 1272, after its smoke became a problem; the fuel was so common in England that this earliest of names for it was acquired because it could be carted away from some shores by the wheelbarrow.

I helped them change into passive voice​

Answers

Answer:

They were helped (to) change by me.

Explanation:

In grammar, the term voice refers to the relationship between the action expressed by the verb and the participants (subject and object) of the event described in the sentence. In English, there are two types of voice:

Active voice - the subject performs the action expressed by the verb.Passive voice - the subject is the recipient of the action expressed by the verb.

When converting active voice into passive voice, we need to turn the object of the active sentence into the subject of the passive sentence. The tense used in both sentences should be the same. The subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the preposition by, which is used to express the agent (the person or thing who performs an action). This prepositional phrase (by + agent) is located at the end of the sentence.

This is how we'll get the sentence They were helped (to) change by me. The infinitive marker to can be omitted, as it is in the original sentence, but it can be inserted as well. To help someone do something and to help someone to do something means the same thing. Using passive voice in sentences like this isn't ideal, and the sentence sounds a bit less awkward if we insert to.

Hi. You forgot to say that this question is about the "Blood, Toil, Tears, Sweat" speech.

Answer and Explanation:

Britain is facing World War II and that war is the "rigor of events" that Churchill is referring to. Students should demonstrate that Churchill addresses the issues related to war in the aforementioned speech, when it shows the urgency of appointing him as prime minister, the urgency to appoint members of parliament as soon as possible and the responsibility he has assumed, stating that he would offer his full work and even his blood to run the country efficiently at such an important time.

If students present this type of argument it will show that they have prepared for the discussion, read the speech and interpreted it according to the historical context that it has.

Question 8 (5 points) (LC) Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. Tom Stoppard's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, draws on two previous theatrical works: Shakespeare's Hamlet and Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead follows the "off-stage" exploits of two minor characters from Hamlet, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. While the two main characters in Stoppard's play occasionally make brief appearances in "Hamlet," as scripted in Shakespeare's original tragedy, the majority of the play takes place in other parts of the castle where Hamlet is set. While "off stage" in this way, the characters resemble the main characters in the absurdist Waiting for Godot. As in Beckett's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern pass the time by impersonating other characters, engaging in word play, and remaining silent for long periods of time. These same two characters were also featured in a parody of Hamlet, the short comic play by W. S. Gilbert entitled Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Gilbert's play makes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern into central characters and alters the storyline of Hamlet: The author of this passage chooses to describe four different playwrights in order to (5 points) са convince the reader that one playwright is more talented than another Ob instruct the reader about the least successful adaptations of Shakespeare inform the reader of many different interpretations of the same two characters Od distract the reader from the true message of Shakespeare's tragic play Question 9 (5 points)​

Which best describes the purpose of this excerpt of the prologue? * it predicts what will happen to Henry at the end * it states the conflict that occurs at the end of the play * smiles it introduces the characters of Henry's enemies * it builds suspense about the war in the play

Answers

Answer:

it builds suspense about the war in the play.

Explanation:

The above excerpt talks about how the narrator is requesting the monarchs to behold their eyes for something great that is going to happen soon. It grandly introduces the entrance of King Henry into the war but does not foretell what is actually going to happen.

It helps in creating a suspense in the minds of the readers as to what will happen to the war once King Henry takes part in it. Therefore, the statement that best describes the purpose of this excerpt of the prologue is "it builds suspense about the war in the play."

Answer:

it builds suspense about the war in the play.
