Paraphrase each stanza in this poem, called On Quitting written by Edgar Guest.

Poem:
Stanza 1: How much grit do you think you’ve got?
Can you quit a thing that you like a lot?
You may talk of pluck; it’s an easy word,
And where’er you go it is often heard;
But can you tell to a jot or guess
Just how much courage you now possess?

Stanza 2: You may stand to trouble and keep your grin,
But have you tackled self-discipline?
Have you ever issued commands to you
To quit the things that you like to do,
And then, when tempted and sorely swayed,
Those rigid orders have you obeyed?

Stanza 3: Don’t boast of your grit till you’ve tried it out,
Nor prate to men of your courage stout,
For it’s easy enough to retain a grin
In the face of a fight there’s a chance to win,
But the sort of grit that is good to own
Is the stuff you need when you’re all alone.

Stanza 4: How much grit do you think you’ve got?
Can you turn from joys that you like a lot?
Have you ever tasted yourself to know
How far with yourself your will can go?
If you want to know if you have grit,
Just pick out a joy that you like, and quit.

Stanza 5: It’s bully sport and it’s open fight;
It will keep you busy both day and night;
For the toughest kind of a game you’ll find
Is to make your body obey your mind.
And you never will know what is meant by grit
Unless there’s something you’ve tried to quit.

Read this passage from chapter 5 of The Prince.
There are, for example, the Spartans and the Romans. The Spartans held Athens and Thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. The Romans, in order to hold Capua, Carthage, and Numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. They wished to hold Greece as the Spartans held it, making it free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. So to hold it they were compelled to dismantle many cities in the country, for in truth there is no safe way to retain them otherwise than by ruining them. And he who becomes master of a city accustomed to freedom and does not destroy it, may expect to be destroyed by it, for in rebellion it has always the watchword of liberty and its ancient privileges as a rallying point, which neither time nor benefits will ever cause it to forget. And whatever you may do or provide against, they never forget that name or their privileges unless they are disunited or dispersed, but at every chance they immediately rally to them, as Pisa after the hundred years she had been held in bondage by the Florentines.

11. What is the theme that Ben Jonson makes about art and/or artists in

this poem?

To the Memory of My Beloved the Author, Mr. William Shakespeare

Answers

Answer:

The theme that Jonson presents is that there are reasons to admire Shakespeare's writing.

Explanation:

The poem praises the work of Shakespeare and Ben Jonson shows that even if they were rivals he cannot hide that Shakespeare's writing is admirable and that he can use simple words, without appeals to Latin and Greek and be better than many other writers who, although they have admirable works, fail to achieve the effect of Shakespeare's works. He goes so far as to say that Shakespeare does not need to use sophisticated words, because with the minimum effort he manages to be better than Euripides and Sophocles.

The memory process of retaining information received is called __________.
A.
retrieving
B.
encoding
C.
storing
D.
recoding


Please select the best answer from the choices provided

A
B
C
D

Answers

The answer is C: Storing

The process of retaining the information received by memory should be called storing.

Therefore, we can say that option C is the correct answer.

Memory is a very important part of the functioning of the human body. In short, you can say that memory occurs in three stages which are:

Encoding: Represents the moment the information is transformed to be part of memory.Storing: Represents when this information is stored, or erased, when the brain believes it is not important.Retrieval: Refers to the moment when we remember this information.

With this, we can conclude that the process called storing is essential for memory because it reflects the moment when information is retained in our brain.

An anecdotal storyteller with a particular character from the verifiable creator this is the right reply. The writer's persona is the abstract gadget, and it is the voice that apparently is thinking or composing the work.

However, this is the different persona from the creator's own voice. Persona is exactly what the creator made to be generally reasonable for the specific work.

The voice made by creators when appearing to represent themselves  this isn't the right reply. The expression for this is authorial voice.

The disposition the creator or storyteller has toward the topic this is a wrong  as the meaning of the tone.

The verifiable creator's character, foundation, and perspectives this isn't the right as is simply the creator.

Fix the two words that are used incorrectly.

Answers

The two words that are used incorrectly in the given statement are "pore" and "there." The correct words to be used in this context are "poor" and "they're" respectively.

The sentence should be written as "The concert promoters feel that advanced ticket sales have been poor, so they're going to release new radio advertisements later this week."

The word "poor" means that the ticket sales are not satisfactory or below expectations, which is the intended meaning of the sentence.
Additionally, the word "they're" is a contraction of "they are" and is used to indicate the action being taken by the concert promoters to improve ticket sales. On the other hand, the word "there" is used to refer to a location or a point in space.
In conclusion, it is important to use the correct spelling and grammar in written and spoken communication to convey the intended message effectively.
