Read the excerpt from stanzas 3 and 4 of "The Turtle.”

It isn’t even hers but came to her
in the rain or the soft wind,
which is a gate through which her life keeps walking.

She can’t see
herself apart from the rest of the world
or the world from what she must do
every spring.
Crawling up the high hill,
luminous under the sand that has packed against her skin,
she doesn’t dream

Why, in your view, does the poet use bruin' and not bear' in stanzas two and five?

Answers

Answer:

This question requires a personal answer. I will give you an answer that you can use as an example to modify it and make your own.

Explanation:

 This question corresponds to the poem "My mother saw a dancing bear" by Charles Causley.

We must begin by clarifying that the word bruin is used to name bears, especially in texts addressed to children.

That could be the first reason. The author may have wanted his poem to be addressed to an audience of children. If we read the poem with attention we can see that the poem has a happy tone and that there are even children in it.

Another option could be that the author wanted to avoid repeating the word "bear" so he used another meaning.

Is this a parallel sentence?

Megan is writing about this excerpt from The Jungle Book.

Mowgli sprang to his feet. "Free People," he cried, "does Shere Khan lead the Pack? What has a tiger to do with our leadership?"

"Seeing that the leadership is yet open, and being asked to speak—" Shere Khan began.

"By whom?" said Mowgli. "Are we all jackals, to fawn on this cattle butcher? The leadership of the Pack is with the Pack alone."

There were yells of "Silence, thou man's cub!" "Let him speak. He has kept our law!" And at last the seniors of the Pack thundered: "Let the Dead Wolf speak!"

When a leader of the Pack has missed his kill, he is called the Dead Wolf as long as he lives, which is not long, as a rule.


Megan makes the claim "Respecting leadership is an important part of the Jungle Law.”
Which action best supports this claim?

A.) Shere Khan speaks as a leader because Akela is a Dead Wolf and too old to lead.
B.) The senior wolves in the pack allow Akela, the Dead Wolf, to speak at Council Rock.
C.) Mowgli yells at the wolves because they allow Shere Khan too much power, which angers him.
D.) Many of the wolves shout at Mowgli and do not like him because he is a man’s cub.

A. Hancock has been too busy to write.

C. Hancock wishes she had a goose to roast for the infirm.
D. Hancock admires the men who pray for food, rather than curse for it.

Answers

Answer: B. The wounded men are suffering further because of a lack of food.

Explanation:

Hancock, who is the speaker in this passage, notes that some days they will have nothing to cook with such that they have to feed their men with dry bread and poor coffee instead of proper food.

These men were already wounded and so were already suffering. A lack of food will make them suffer even more. This is why Hancock notes that some will curse and some will pray because that is how they will react to the further suffering.

Which word is a synonym of influential?
unmoving
useful
sick
powerful

Answers

the answer is powerful :)

Answer:

Powerful

Explanation:

Influential means to hold the power to persuade.

Unmoving cannot be true because it does not mean anything regarding the amount of influence one has.

Useful is not true because being influential can be useful but useful does not have the same meaning as being influential.

Sick mean to be struck with an illness which has nothing to do with how influential one is

Powerful is the best option because someone who is very powerful could also be described as very influential

I endeavored to shriek, and my lips and my parched tongue moved convulsively together in the attempt—but no voice issued from the cavernous lungs, which oppressed as if by the weight of some mountain, gasped and palpitated, with the heart, at every elaborate and struggling breath.

The movement of the jaws, in this effort to cry aloud, showed me that they were bound up, as is usual with the dead. I felt, too, that I lay upon some hard substance, and by something similar my sides were, also, closely compressed. So far, I had not ventured to stir any of my limbs—but now I violently threw up my arms, which had been lying at length, with the wrists crossed. They struck a solid wooden substance, which extended above my person at an elevation of not more than six inches from my face.

Based on the indirect characterization in this stanza, which word best describes the narrator?

caring
polite
proud
gentle

Answers

Caring would best describe the narrator

Based on the indirect characterization in this stanza, caring word best describes the narrator. Therefore, option A is correct.

What is indirect characterization?

A literary strategy known as indirect characterization reveals information about a character without stating it directly. The author doesn't simply list a character's characteristics; instead, they are demonstrated by the character's actions, speech, thoughts, appearance, and how other characters respond to them.

The reader infers information about characters by analysing their thoughts, behaviours, physical attributes, speech patterns, mannerisms, and interactions with other characters.

This kind of characterization, which is most frequently used in first-person narration, gives the reader insight into the narrator's perspective while also challenging them to engage with the story actively and form their own opinions about the characters.

Thus, option A is correct.

Beneath the idle beechen boughs We heard the far bells of the cows Come slowly jangling towards the house; And still, and still, Beyond the light that would not die Out of the scarlet-haunted sky; Beyond the evening-star's white eye Of glittering chalcedony, Drained out of dusk the plaintive cry Of "whippoorwill," of "whippoorwill."III.
