"A witty man is tickled while he is hurt in this manner, and a fool feels it not." This simply suggests that when a witty man is criticized, he laughs, accepts it with humor, and also respects the talent of the critic as he is is characterized by or brimming with witty or brilliant humor.
Thus, he will not be offended by the satire that's written about him.

Write a 100 word essay reflecting on how poems can be mirrors of life experiences,
and look for at least one poem that can justify it ( a poem that talks about heartbreak, or the sinple joys of life).
A reflection isn’t the actual representation, as a mirror displays us to ourselves isn’t identical or a reflection given by looking into a pool of water. So poetry isn’t meant as an identical portrayal, just glimpses now and then, like a distorted ripple effect yet then appearing as a freeze frame would. These distorted snapshots are based on what the technology provides and any enhancements such as colour, brightness, contrast.
:
Poetry is different because if I mention the Statue of Liberty then each person responds to previous images stored to memory. Same again if I refer to a restaurant, or a museum, or a School, or a College or University, or a Church. So poetry isn’t limited to just one perception for a reader, this year or next year, or 20 years from now.
:
Same again if I have a poem that includes the word blue. Is it light blue or dark blue or just feeling sad? So when poets use words they may be using puns or alliterations or acrostics as writing devices. They may be trying to impress with finesse. They may be drawing words to their most basic just to communicate with little children, too. So while poetry can elevate and inspire with great eloquence, that doesn’t mean a poet determines these as right for everything that he must write. Poetry has been suggested as writing the right words in the right phrases. That doesn’t apply to nonsense rhymes because this genre is playful, it’s just like a silly rhyme time or a limerick or a one-liner action.
:
Think of the amazing variety that is offered in poetic styles. The poemhunter web site has a Submit a New Poem option. Its drop-down list of types or formats has over 100 to choose from. Some are basic and some are intricately contrived, pieced together with precise control even to the syllables and the stresses in the way they get used, pronounced and recited to others. So while you’re reading this information, there are thousands of poems being created by well-meaning poets as well as professionals and amateurs and those who just feel spiteful, sarcastic or vehemently calling to social change, crusaders, hopeful for some repentance or reform, for restoration or repair, for blessing and further blessings to follow. Some are writing for posterity, reaching beyond this generation, reaching for a better world. So it’s no wonder that thousands of ideas are bubbling away like water in the kettle, ready for use later on.
:
Society has taken the choicest poetry to mold the future hopes and dreams of humanity. Prophets can become poets and visionaries going beyond all previously known thoughts and ideas. Poets can be the comforters, the coaxers, the inquisitors of truths and standards. They could be the watchmen, the faithful few. They could be the clowns and the comedians, the artists and the composers, the blessing or the curse. You either like a poem, or tolerate or hate it. If you like it, that doesn’t mean you’re willing to pay a single penny to that poet. So it’s no wonder that many poets feel downcast and even cynical about what their talents are providing for them for their financial future. Poetry and poverty are too close for comfort. A labor of love? Or just a way to avoid doing the housework and washing the dishes?
Which one is a hyperbole and which one is a metaphor?
A. He ran for an eternity.
B. Ping pong was his life.
Answer:
He ran for an eternity.- Hyperbole
Ping pong was his life.- Metaphor
Explanation:
Figurative languages are used by writers to give more "life" to their works. They help create this 'color' in the text, through the use of different elements.
A simile is when two unrelated things are compared using "as" or "like" in the sentence.
Personification is when human attributes are given to non-living things.
A metaphor is also another form of comparison but without the use of "as" or "like".
An allusion is when a reference to a well-known person, place, or thing is made.
Hyperbole is when an exaggerated statement is made, overemphasizing the point.
Hey there!
Hyperbole :-
A. He ran for an eternity.
Hyberbole is used when you exaggerate something. Surely a person cannot run for an eternity. It's just an exaggeration to show that the person ran for a long time. So, it's a hyberbole.
Metaphor :-
B. Ping pong was his life.
Here, this sentence is a metaphor because it compares ping pong to the person's life without the use of like/as. This sentence tells that ping pong meant everything to the person.

Explanation:
importance of timeTime is more valuable than money; Because if money is spent, it can be recovered, however, if we lose time once, then it can not be recovered. A common saying about that time is that "time and tide do not refuse to see anybody." It is actually similar to the existence of life on Earth, that is, the way life on earth is true, this saying is completely true. Time runs continuously without any interruption. This does not wait for anyone, therefore, we should not waste our precious time without any purpose and in any age of our life. We should always understand the meaning of time and accordingly, it should be used positively to meet some objectives. We should continue to learn something or something continuously from it, if it remains without any interruption, then why can not we do this?

after reading the text, do you think there some government jobs that are more important to a city than others? if so what are they? describe a government job that you might be interested in one day
Answer:
I do belive that some government jobs are more crucial to a city than others. The upkeep of a community falls into the hands of the government. For example, trash companies and road constructors are government run jobs. Without those jobs, there would be no road upkeep for everyday transport and no transportation for trash, which would soon pile up. If I were to work for the government, I would work as the mayor or governor to run programs to aid citizens in their everyday lives.

Which viewpoint does Banneker convey in "Benjamin Banneker Writes to Thomas Jefferson"?
O Freedom and equality are privileges to be earned, not freely given.
O Black Americans have no choice but to rebel against a nation that enslaves them.
Fundamental human rights should be extended to all people.
O It is a responsibility of the government to support Black scientists and inventors.
The viewpoint conveyed in the letter is that fundamental human rights must be extended to all people, as shown in the third answer option.
We can arrive at this answer because:
Benjamin Banneker was an abolitionist and he knew it would be difficult to solve the cause of slavery in the country.For this reason, he began to invite influential men to join the cause, as he knew this would help in the quest for the abolition of slavery.For this reason, he wrote a letter to Thomas Jefferson to explain to him how slavery was incorrect and to invite him to become an abolitionist.In this letter, he shows that freedom is a right of all human beings and was given by God to all people, regardless of their color.As such, enslaving black people was a sin against God and a contradiction in the freedom that was defended in America.Therefore, we can say that he had the viewpoint that the American government should extend freedom to all people and that is why he was an abolitionist.

How does Juliet go against traditional gender roles? (please give answer with quotes and supporting evidence for the quote if possible, will mark as brainliest!)
Throughout Romeo and Juliet, by William Shakespeare, there is an overlaying presence of the typical roles that men and women were supposed to play. During Elizabethan times there was a major difference between the way men and women were supposed to act. Men typically were supposed to be masculine and powerful, and defend the honor. Women, on the other hand, were supposed to be subservient to their men in their lives and do as ever they wished. In Romeo and Juliet the typical gender roles that men and women were supposed to play had an influence on the fate of their lives. The beginning of Act one opens with a brawl in the street between the servants of the Capulets and the Montagues.

"California families relay harrowing escape from Afghanistan"
When Yousef's wife and their four children boarded a July 15 flight in San Diego to attend her brother's wedding in Afghanistan, they were looking forward to a month of family gatherings.Their return ticket to the United States was August 15, two days before their children's school year would begin in El Cajon, California, a suburb of San Diego. Yousef, who remained in California, looked forward to their return. This Afghan American family, however, found themselves dodging gunfire on their return date, trying to force their way into the crowds of people all around the airport at the capital, Kabul. Everyone was trying to get out of the country. Afghanistan's government had collapsed and the Taliban, a militant group that ran Afghanistan in the late 1990s, had seized power again. U.S. troops had been in Afghanistan for 20 years, ever since they helped remove the Taliban from power in 2001. The United States and other Western nations also helped set up a government.
"Eight Families From California Left Behind"
In 2021 the U.S. decided to end its longest war and withdraw its soldiers from the country. Suddenly, however, the government fell and chaos gripped Kabul. In August, U.S. troops hurried to get Americans and allies out of the country, and the last U.S. soldier left on August 31. Yousef's wife and children were among eight families from El Cajon who were left behind.
Yousef's family and several other families finally got out of Afghanistan. The Cajon Valley Union School District and their representative in Congress, Republican Darrell Issa, assisted them.
Several of the families spoke to reporters last week. Yousef asked that only his first name be used in this story because he still has relatives in Afghanistan who could be at risk.
The parents described running with their kids as gunfire whizzed overhead. One father said he was beaten by the Taliban. They said they were kept from getting to the airport by Taliban checkpoints.They said they are grateful to be back in the U.S., but that they worry about the family members unable to get out.
"Safe At Home Right Now Thanks To God And All Of You"
"My kids are now safe at home right now thanks to God and all of you," Yousef said.
He asked, however, that people not forget the many others left behind. These include U.S. citizens, as well as people with permission to live in the U.S., and Afghans who are at risk because they helped the American government. For the past 20 years, Afghans have worked with U.S. forces to oppose the Taliban. Yousef held a folder that he said contained the documents of 30 people from Afghanistan who qualified for a special immigrant visa. They should be in the United States, he said, but they are still trapped in Afghanistan, desperate to escape.President Joe Biden has said between 100 and 200 Americans were left behind when U.S. troops completed their withdrawal August 31. Many of those left behind are Afghan Americans. The State Department has given no estimate for others who hope to leave Afghanistan. These include U.S. green card holders, people who have permission to live in the United States. Other Afghans received the special visas because they helped Americans during the 20-year war. Congressman Issa said there might be more U.S. citizens and others who were left behind than the U.S. government admits. Yousef said he felt helpless being in California, thousands of miles away, fearing the life he and his family had built would come to a halt and his wife and children would be trapped in Afghanistan ruled by the Taliban. He and his family are all U.S. citizens. They came to this country on a special immigrant visa after Yousef worked for the U.S. government in Afghanistan.
"U.S. Authorities Escort Family To Airport"
Yousef said Issa's team arranged a time for his family to go to the airport with an escort from U.S. authorities. He described talking to Issa's team from where he was in California. At the same time, he was navigating his family through the chaos in Afghanistan.His family returned home to California on Friday, September 3. The first thing he did was take them to IHOP, the International House of Pancakes. It's their favorite restaurant.He hopes more of those happy moments will wipe away the deeply distressing memories his kids have. His 7-year-old son, his youngest, has been talking about the violence."They are talking about it, about the gunfire, and being scared of the Taliban, but we hope they forget all that," said Yousef. He wants them to return to their lives as regular American kids.
Questions:
Imagine that you are one of Yousef’s children. How are you feeling before this trip?
How are you feeling during this trip?
How are you feeling after you get home from this trip?
After reading the short stories, we can answer the questions imagining we are one of Yousef's children in the following way:
- Before the trip: I am excited! I will get to see my family again after a long time. We will enjoy a whole month together, eating, talking, and having fun!
- During the trip: I feel happy, even though I'm a little tired. The plane ride was long and we haven't rested much. But it is worth it! I am finally seeing those lovely faces I hadn't seen in a long time.
- After the trip: I feel scared and exhausted. We never thought it would be so difficult to leave Afghanistan. Taliban men were everywhere, and they shot guns and shouted orders. I am still afraid of them.
According to the stories, Yousef's family went through an ordeal trying to return home from Afghanistan.Yousef says his children still talk about what happened, that they are still scared after witnessing the violence in the country.Thus, we can assume that one of his children, if answering those questions, would be excited at first.However, once the encounter with the Taliban happened, he/she would most likely be very scared.Learn more about the topic here:
