Phrases in which the words have opposite, contrasting meanings are examples of oxymorons. Oxymorons are often used as a way to emphasize an idea or concept. Usually, when looking at each word individually, the difference in meaning between them is astonishing. However, in context, they tend to make sense together, conveying the author's ideas in an interesting way. Two more of such expressions are:
- cold flame;
- bright darkness.

Then the only other creature who is allowed at the Pack Council—Baloo, the sleepy brown bear who teaches the wolf cubs the Law of the Jungle; old Baloo, who can come and go where he pleases because he eats only nuts and roots and honey—rose up on his hind quarters and grunted.
"The man's cub—the man's cub?" he said. "I speak for the man's cub. There is no harm in a man's cub. I have no gift of words, but I speak the truth. Let him run with the Pack, and be entered with the others. I myself will teach him.”

3. What archetypes does Irving use in "The Devil and Tom Walker"? Why do you think he
chose to use them?
Answer:
The archetype for the "The Devil and Tom Walker" would be that of Faust. Washington's story describes the archetypal "deal with the devil" that ends in tragedy.
It is usually the case that the benefits associated with a Faustian bargain are dwarfed by what is required in return. In the story, Tom Walker makes a deal with Old Scratch: in return for access to the pirate's treasure, he will use his newfound wealth in the Devil's service.
For his part, Old Scratch demands that Tom engage in what is known as "black traffic" or the slave trade. Tom refuses vehemently but agrees to the Devil's next suggestion: that he works as a money-lender. In due time, Tom becomes extremely wealthy. He revels in his new wealth and position in society. However, he begins to have second thoughts about his bargain with Old Scratch.
In his old age, Tom begins to feel apprehensive about the next life. So, he begins attending church regularly, and he becomes a dogmatic believer in God. As we learn, Tom's panicked rituals of contrition do little to secure his salvation. The Devil comes for him, sealing the Faustian bargain. So, the archetype for "The Devil and Tom Walker" is the story of Faust, where a "deal with the devil" ends in tragedy.
Could someone write a 5 paragraph essay on how: The death of a loved one affects youth?
Answer:
The death of a loved one can affect the way a child thinks when they are young. The remembrance, the mere fact that somebody they truly loved is gone forever, passed away, can break their mind into pieces, cursing it with sadness and making them feel lonesome in ways that deeply hurt them and affect them. And as they grow up, the struggles of that memory of that loved one dying, whether it's a pet or grandparent, can change the way they act and feel, the way they interact with others, and how they handle their emotions.

I have so much homework.
I still have to learn this piece of music.
Combined sentence is as follows :
I have so much homework, and I still have to learn this piece of music.
Answer: D
Explanation:
It can't be A because that transition doesn't make sense.
It could be B because it makes more sense. For example, if you have a lot of homework and still had to learn a piece of music, you could say that.
It can't be C because--do I have to explain?
I have so much homework, so I still have to learn this piece of music.
Doesn't make sense.
It could be D because this expresses a sense on annoyance as to having a lot of homework and still having to learn a piece of music.
I have so much homework, yet I still have to learn this piece of music.
I'm debating on B and D, but I think its D.

Read the excerpt from Justice Curtis’s dissenting opinion, then answer the question that follows.
Slavery, being contrary to natural right, is created only by municipal law. This is not only plain in itself, and agreed by all writers on the subject, but is inferable from the Constitution, and has been explicitly declared by this court. The Constitution refers to slaves as “persons held to service in one State, under the laws thereof.” . . . .
. . . It was certainly understood by the Convention which framed the Constitution, and has been so understood ever since, that, under the power to regulate commerce, Congress could prohibit the importation of slaves; and the exercise of the power was restrained till 1808. A citizen of the United States owns slaves in Cuba, and brings them to the United States, where they are set free by the legislation of Congress. Does this legislation deprive him of his property without due process of law? If so, what becomes of the laws prohibiting the slave trade? If not, how can a similar regulation respecting a Territory violate the fifth amendment of the Constitution? . . . .
For these reasons, I am of opinion that so much of the several acts of Congress as prohibited slavery and involuntary servitude within that part of the Territory of Wisconsin . . . were constitutional and valid laws.
–Dissenting opinion on Dred Scott v. Sandford,
Justice Benjamin Curtis
Which evidence best supports Curtis’s opinion that Dred Scott should be free because he lived in a free territory? Check all that apply.
“The Constitution refers to slaves as ‘persons held to service in one State’”
“The Convention which framed the Constitution . . . has . . . the power to regulate commerce.”
“A citizen of the United States owns slaves in Cuba.”
“Does this legislation deprive him of his property without due process of law?”
“Acts of Congress as prohibited slavery and involuntary servitude within that part of the Territory of Wisconsin . . . were constitutional and valid laws.”
HINT: THERE ARE ONLY 2 CORRECT ANSWERS

“The Constitution refers to slaves as ‘persons held to service in one State’”
“Acts of Congress as prohibited slavery and involuntary servitude within that part of the Territory of Wisconsin . . . were constitutional and valid laws.”
