Answer:
The speaker is fascinated by the tempest, but glad to see it leave.
The correct answer to the first question (what can be inferred by contrasting the ideas in the first two stanzas of the poem to the last stanza) is D) The awful tempest rages all night long and terrifies the speaker of the poem.
The first two stanzas, through adjectives like "awful" and "gaunt", expressions like "spectre's cloak" and "creatures", and verbs like "chuckled", "whistled" and "gnashed", convey that the tempest was terrifying, which can be understood by the speaker's word choice when telling the reader about it.
The last stanza shows that the storm lasted all night when the speaker says "morning lit", and, by expressing her relief and how peaceful she thought everything was after the storm had passed, the speaker intensifies the idea that it had been a terrifying storm. So, the correct answer to this question would be D.
Answer A is not correct because nothing indicates that the speaker would be fascinated by the storm, rather scared. Answer B is not correct because the tempest is not saddened by the morning sun, on the contrary, the speaker shows his relief and peace almost with happiness, which can be inferred by the presence of an exclamation mark in the last verse. Answer C is not correct because the tempest is not saddened at first, it is scary.
The correct answer to the second question (what device did Dickinson employ to create the effect in lines 1 and 2) is C) Paradox.
A paradox is a statement that seems to be contradictory in logic, that seems to not be true, but that also is not false. The speaker creates an absurd effect by using a paradox to describe the tempest when she suggests a storm with gaunt and few clouds. So, the correct answer to this question would be C.
Answer A isn't correct, the device used by Dickinson couldn't be an hyperbole because that figure of speech would cause the contrary effect; the storm would be shown like something grandiose and extremely terrifying, with an exaggerated connotation. Answer B isn't correct because there is no presence of an onomatopoeia in both lines since there is no written sound. Answer D isn't correct because the storm is not personified with human characteristics, rather the clouds are "gaunt", which is an adjective that can refer to objects.
The correct answer to the third question (why did Dickinson most likely use the phrase "black, as of a spectre's cloak" in the first stanza) is D) to create a feeling of darkness and gloom.
The black spectre's cloak mentioned is an image that describes how the gaunt and few clouds created a dark plain sky that covered the earth and the heaven, leaving everything dark and gloomy. That was the storm's appearance. Therefore, the correct answer to this question would be D.
Answer A is not correct because, although the storm could have been a dream, nothing in the poem indicates that it was; on the contrary, the description of the storm going away in the morning indicates that it wasn't a bad dream, but something real. Answer B is not correct because the black cloak mentioned doesn't transmit a sensation of coldness but of darkness. Answer C is not correct because the poem isn't comic, not even slightly, and this expression makes it even darker.
The correct answer to the last question (how does the poet convey the seriousness of the storm) is A) She uses personification to emphasize the impact of the storm.
When the poet describes the storm as a "monster" whose "faded eyes turned slowly to his native coast", she is using personification to emphasize how serious the storm was, as if it were like a monster with eyes that can turn, and with power and strength. Hence, the correct answer to this question is A.
Answer B isn't correct because neither does the poet use paradoxes in the last stanza nor does she show the storm as majestic. Answer C isn't correct because she doesn't use informal language and the storm seems to have been very serious and strong, and not the opposite. Answer D isn't correct because she doesn't show the changes that are coming through metaphors, the poet actually shows only the peaceful feeling that was left when the storm was gone.

Before the Big Bang, there was no matter in the universe. It was a dense, hot, soupy mixture. Scientists call this stuff quark-gluon plasma, or quark soup in layman’s terms. BLANK (moreover, eventually, meanwhile), this plasma cooled and gave rise to the first atoms, mostly helium and hydrogen. BLANK (then, lastly, besides), the first stars and galaxies formed. BLANK (furthermore, however, to conclude), scientists still do not have conclusive evidence of how the first stars and galaxies in the universe came into being.

Bullet
It’s hard to dodge a bullet
Before the trigger is pulled
You can’t run away from it
No matter how good
Once its shot
Your going to fall down
Going to get caught
Next thing you know
Your on the ground
With the crowd running around
The bullet had got you
And shots are being heard
There’s nothing you can do
All but say a word
You need to escape
But with every breath you take
Burns your lungs
Burns your body
The guns start to show
D.ead people are being emboded
But you have to stay down low
Pretend your d.ead
So they’ll leave you instead
Crawl away
Slowly
Or just stay
Since they are unholy
Once they leave
Crawl out of there at once
But please don’t be naive
For they can still be on the hunt
The bullet is piercing you
And all you can do
Is call the hospital
And put a popsicle
On your injury
Make it numb
Make it du.mb
Stop the bleeding
Before your time runs away fleeting
And you stop breathing
It’s hard to dodge a bullet
To bad you didn’t do it
In Monster, what supports Mr. Sawicki's inference that Steve is an honest person?
you think the passengers on the Challenger took a necessary risk?
say 3 reasons why you think they did/ didnt
No I don’t think they took an unnecessary risk. Firstly they took the risk for an accomplishment that could’ve changed the world. Secondly they made history regardless which changed the way we create things for space to this day. Lastly they were aware of any and all risks and were prepared for what might happen. That’s my opinion but here is some for if you think they did take an unnecessary risk
1. The science and engineering wasn’t known to be 100% safe at all.
2. The weather that day was not ideal and the take off should have been postponed
3. They rushed the building process only to beat rivaling programs and countries which should not have been the goal.

What was JFK's early and young adult like? What is something great he accomplished? At least 3 sentences
Answer:The Recession of 1960-61 began in April 1960 and lasted 10 months, ending in February 1961. By the time Kennedy took office in January 1961, the United States was in the middle of financial trouble. The GDP was on the rise in Q2 and Q3 of 1960 but saw a decline to -5.0% in the final quarter of that year. Unemployment also reached a peak of 7.1% by May 1961. Established on March 1, 1961, by Executive Order 10924, the Peace Corps is one of the most successful programs to come from the Kennedy administration. The program was put in place to help underdeveloped nations with farming, education, health care and construction. It became a hit with college students who saw it as an opportunity to travel while also being able to help those in need. The Equal Pay Act of 1963 was signed into law on June 10, 1963. Its creation was meant to abolish wage disparity based on sex. This problem was always prevalent, especially after WWII. At the time, more women were joining the workforce and taking jobs originally held by men. Amending the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, the updated EPA was a major change that needed to be done in order to close the wage gap in women’s pay.

im writing an argument paper and need someone to tell me if my introduction sounds good.
my topic is: should poetry be taught more in school?
(intro must include a hook, background info, and a thesis)
Think into the past during your English classes while you were learning poetry. Were the lessons for poetry in-depth? Did they make you think? Or were they just simple things like reading and writing a few poems and answering some questions on famous poems. Lessons about poetry always seem so short and brief. It never feels like kids are being taught in-depth poetry. It’s always just the basics like some of the types of poetry written or why poetry is important. Teachers don’t usually teach the emotional connection poetry has so when kids get up into high school English, they struggle when learning poetry. Some English teachers in high school expect emotional connections to the poems or in-depth poems but since kids aren't taught how to do that throughout Elementary and Middle school, they struggle and can’t do it. Poetry should be taught more in school because there are so many things that poetry does for us, such as helping express emotions and feelings, strengthens overall mental health, and it’s even therapeutic for the writer and reader.

This castle is overlooking a peak, so it would be very easy to make this a short (frozen-esque) story about a queen overlooking and wondering about the outcome of the battle. Or you could even go as far as to right about the snow falling and add the aliteration of crunching as an army apprachs the sucluded area. Or you could go high fantasy and talk about what would happen within this scene (Like focusing on a crow that was a shapeshifter that infiltrates a castle). I know this isnt what you wanted, but your teacher would figure it out if you yeet stuff from here.

Write two paragraphs (6 sentences minimum per paragraph) on nature. Provide descriptive words for the natural world, its daily activity, and how it interacts with itself. Trees and wind. Waves and sand. Birds and other birds. Creatures and other creatures.
please helppppp
btw.. NO FILES >:-(
Answer:
Explanation:
Nature can be defined as the physical world and the life which interacts with it. It is the total of the ecosystem, animals, birds, plants, landscapes, and humans. Nature not just includes life but also is the host for the non-living physical entities as well. Nature took billions of years to grow and form to shape what we see today.
Nature has given us everything. The sweet sound of chirping birds to hear every morning, crystal clear water to drink every day, a cold breeze to feel, pure air to breathe in, and mouth-watering food to eat is entirely pleasing. Mother Nature has always nourished us. It has always taken care of us and has provided us with all the necessities of life. It has provided shelter to birds and animals, shade to travellers, and even branches to tie swigs for children to enjoy.
Today, humans are harming the environment by polluting and damaging it. Many organizations are working to make nature cleaner. It is our duty to keep our surroundings clean and use biodegradable material to keep nature clean. We have to revive Mother Nature, who has always nourished and nurtured us.
