Pervading: be all around, spread widely (the stench of rotten eggs pervaded the air)

Valance: Decorative drapery about a bed (a dust ruffle)

Encroached: moved in upon (the cat encroached on my space)

August: A month of the year.

Dispensation: the act of distributing or a system of government

Deputation: A group appointed to undertake a mission

Vanquished: Slain or beaten

Deprecation: being mean to someone (think self-deprecation; being mean to yourself)

Spraddled: Spreading one's legs apart (slightly different form of straddling)

Serene: Calm, peaceful

Impervious: Resistant, unable to be destroyed (the chamber was impervious)

Circumvent: to avoid (boy, we really circumvented that whole mess!)

How would the author of “Playground” respond to the author of “I’m Not Thirteen Yet”? Use evidence from both texts in your explanation.

<< Read Less

Answers

Answer:

The Author of “Playground” would most likely respond by saying that both of the stories are similar, by which they both have characters that bring the story to a theme. Both stories bring together that their themes may be that the main characters feel drawn to something, This is because the main character in “I’m not 13 yet” wants to be a part in a School of 12 and 13 year olds. The main character feels as if they don’t belong, because they’re being excluded from the 13 year olds’ clubs. The main character in “Playground” however, has a flashback from their anguished childhood because his son and him pass by a Playground that is very noisy.

How do the depictions of grief in the Odyssey and "An Ancient Gesture" develop a universal theme? How does Milly use the story of Penelope and Odysseus to convey a modern theme?

Answers

Explanation:

Este mito puede considerarse como uno de los más complejos y más cercanos al ser humano de cuantos legó la Antigüedad griega. Humano, porque Ulises busca, lucha y sufre porque ama, así como el hombre busca, lucha y sufre porque ama. Complejo, porque una multitud de otros personajes, de gran simbolismo, pueblan el escenario de su travesía de retorno al hogar y el terruño. Esos personajes muestran honda humanidad. El viaje de Odiseo puede calificarse de "itinerario humano", pues al menos 28 encrucijadas a las que puede verse enfrentado el hombre en su vida son superadas por Odiseo. Además de ser éste un mito complejo, ha demostrado ser abierto, pues ha permitido a muchos escritores aprovechar sus elementos esenciales o basarse en alguno de ellos. Por nombrar sólo algunos, se recuerda a Ovidio, Dante, Du Bellay, Tennyson, Joyce, Kazantzakis, Seferis.

Then circle the initials in parentheses that identify how the noun clause is used: S for subject, DO for direct object, 10 forindirect object, PN for predicate nominative, OP for object of a preposition, DOV for direct object of a verbal, or APP for an appositive.

Explanation:

Noun clauses are dependent clauses that act as nouns. In a sentence, they are used the same way as nouns are, which means that they can function as the subject, direct or indirect object, predicate nominative, object of a preposition, or the appositive. They begin with words such as how, that, what, whatever, when, where, whether, which, whichever, who, whoever, whom, whomever, and why.

The subject is what the sentence is about - what performs an action or is described.

The direct object is what receives an action represented by the verb, and the indirect object is the receiver of the direct object.

The predicate nominative is a word or phrase that follows a linking verb and renames or describes the subject.

The object of a preposition is the noun or pronoun that follows the preposition.

The appositive is a noun or pronoun used next to another noun or pronoun to explain or identify it.

I was born in Indiana. I know what your thinking, where the hell is Indiana? Well in the place i live in, it's pretty small and quiet town. I lived here all my life. My name is Jamie, and I'm 15 years old. This town is haunted. Not by what your thinking of. No scary ghost lady looking for revenge, or a banshee, or a demon that steals children. There is this man that passed away a long time ago. I guess he was bullied when he was little for being deformed or something. Everyone has their own story so it changes a whole lot. But I think I know the real story. Kids were real a holes back then, not like their better now, but they would always abuse this poor kid. I remember I heard someone mentioned that he got a pet rat one day and one of the kids threw it on the road and they all saw a huge truck pass by and kill it. The poor kid grew up mean I guess. Then killed himself when he was in his twenties. Now every once in a while their would be a rat infestion all over town. Everyone blames it on the story. It never seemed to happen at our house though. Never. It would happen at my neighbor's, my aunt's, my crush's house down the street. Never mine. Until now. My mom and dad went to go on a trip for their 10th anneversery. (sorry don't know how to spell that) and I got to stay in and lay around. Or so they thought. I invited my friend Kelly. My mom was so cautuos when she left. Because it's around this time for the infestation.I didn't worry. Why would I? When kelly came over, there was a knock before she arrived. I opened the door and saw no one. Ten minutes later another knock, she was there. Bright, pretty Kelly. I asked her about it but she said that she just arrived. I brushed it off. We laid around, played with some makeup. Then she wanted to bake some cookies. She had marshmellows and wanted to add them. But all of our supplies were downstairs. In the basement. I should of stayed out of there. We both went down because I was scared. I hate the dark. we grabbed the stuff, the baking powder, the cake stand, the spatulas. Thats when the door shut. I screamed at the sound and she bursted out laughing. She called me an idiot. I love it when she laughs. She climbs up the stairs and opens the door. Then she looks behind her shoulder at me, telling me its fine. We plopped the stuff on the counter and started baking. It was around ten when it happened. In our town we have this stupid siren that gives me a heart attack every single time. It's suppose to signal the rats infestation. It's always the same day, the same hour, the same minute each time its starts. 10:43 pm on a saturday in the months of June, August, and October. We shrugged it off, cause we both knew we were good. We should of been careful. We heard yells outside, those were the neighbors. We ignored it. Ten minutes later it was quiet again. Everyone should of left by now. They would either leave town or go to the shelters. So know one was on our street. No one to hear our screams. Thats when we heard scratches. On the wood, around the table, in the kitchen. They were everywhere but we couldn't find the trace of the sound. Until we saw them. The most ugliest creatures on planet earth. Their small tiny faces had teeth that shaped into something that looked like a sneer. It had begun....

Answers

Answer:

Tolerant

Explanation:

I just got it right

Tolerant best describes Booker T Washington's character. Thus, option 'D' is the correct option.

Who was Booker T Washington?

American educator, novelist, orator, and advisor to numerous presidents of the United States, Booker Taliaferro Washington (April 5, 1856 – November 14, 1925) was born in the United States. Washington dominated both the African-American community and the modern black aristocracy from 1890 and 1915. The last black American statesman to be born into slavery, Washington became a prominent advocate for former slaves and their descendants.

Disenfranchisement and the Jim Crow laws, which were passed in the Southern states after Reconstruction in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, led to their newfound oppression in the South. As one of the founding members of the National Negro Business League, Washington was a strong supporter of African-American-owned enterprises. His home base was the Tuskegee Institute, an early historically black institution that ultimately evolved into a normal school in Tuskegee, Alabama, where he also served as principal.

Before 1400, Europeans had three main sources of information about the non-European world. The first was the writings of ancient Greek scholars such as the historian Herodotus, who lived in the fifth century ece.
