The Author creates a tone of regret in the poem "On Turning Ten." Which Line best demonstrates the tone of regret. Select all that apply.
1) "Disfiguring chicken pox of the soul" ***
2) "The perfect simplicity of being one"
3) "But now I am mostly at the window"
4) "You tell me it is too early to be looking back" ***
I am very sure about four being correct, although I am unsure about my other answer.
The poem if needed:
On Turning Ten (Billy Collins).
The whole Idea of it makes me feel
like I'm coming down with something,
something worse than any stomach ache.
Or the headaches I get from reading in bad light-
a kind of measles to the spirit,
a mumps of the psyche,
a disfiguring chicken pox of the soul.
You tell me it is too early to be looking back,
but that is because you have forgotten
the perfect simplicity of being one
and the beautiful complexity introduced by two.
But I can lie on my bed and remember every digit.
At four I was an Arabian wizard.
I could make myself invisible
by drinking a glass of milk a certain way.
At seven I was a solider, at nine a prince.
But now I am mostly at the window
watching the late afternoon light.
Back then it never fell so solemnly
I'm going to cut the poem off there.
-Thank you for the help.

Who is an author?An author is one who is the source of some form of intellectual or creative work; especially, one who composes a book, article, poem, play, or other literary work intended for publication.
Usually a distinction is made between an author and others (such as a compiler, an editor, or a translator) who assemble, organize, or manipulate literary materials.
Sometimes, however, the title of author is given to one who compiles material (as for publication) in such a way that the finished compilation can be regarded as a relatively original work.

Write an essay explaining your feelings on the gender pay gap.
My feelings on the gender pay gap are surprising and it is unequal. I feel like women and men should be payed the Same amount of money especially if they're in the Same field of working. Both genders work just as hard in their job as everyone else and being payed equally means the same amount of success, everyone deserves to be happy so why not be payed equally? why not have the same pay as everyone else? it shouldn't matter about the gender to be honest, it should depend on the career you choose and how much work you put into it. Imagine being a woman working day and night as a certified doctor and you get less pay as a man working day and night as a certified doctor and they both work just as hard,they both work the same shifts and work just as hard as each other and you realise your getting payed lower just because of your gender. Keep that in mind. Those are my feelings on the gender pay gap.

Read the opening lines of a poem. A message darts across the screen As I read it, I grin Which lines best conclude the idea of the poem in a logical order? Because the words do not make sense But I read it again But I read it again Because the words do not make sense And I can’t hold it in Because kind words bring happiness Because kind words bring happiness And I can’t hold it in
Answer:
Because kind words bring happiness
Explanation:
A logical order, within a text, refers to the ability of words to show that one situation is so linked to another, that when one happens, the other, logically, happens as a result. This can be seen in the question above, through the line "Because kind words bring happiness." That's because kindness and happiness are very connected, so if someone uses kindness when speaking, logically, it causes happiness in those who heard and in those who spoke.

D, Because kind words bring happiness And I can’t hold it in

Answer:
this got me a 100%
Explanation:
By the late 1970s the federal Office of the Comptroller of the Currency's examinations indicated that Penn Square Bank was overextended. When oil prices dropped in 1981, the situation quickly turned desperate. Depositors withdrew $50 million in May 1982, and by July examiners knew the bank could not survive. They spent the Fourth of July weekend setting up the closure of Penn Square and forming a new bank so that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) could pay the $207 million that was due to insured depositors. Uninsured deposits of $163 million were not paid.
The oil loan shares caused problems for numerous other banks and precipitated a crisis in the entire banking system.
