Interpret Reread lines 5–6 of "On Being Brought from Africa to America." What do these lines tell you about the speaker's experience? How do these lines help develop the theme? Support your response with evidence from the texts.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Lines 5 and 6 from the poem tell how she suffered from being considered as "almost an animal" because she was black. She even uses a phrase that she quotes "Their colour is a diabolic die" because it was probably what she had been told. It's her own experience with racism and slavery. The poem has different parts although it's short, because after she tells her experience in those lines, she finishes the poem saying that every person is the same for God.

Explanation:

To complete this exercise, you have to read the poem "On Being Brought from Africa to America" written by Phillis Wheatley in 1773. She writes from her experience, she was a slave and she started writing poems when she was 14 years old.

Somebody is following us (passive​

Answers

please include more information. tanks
We are being followed by someone.

To put a sentence into passive voice, we make the object of the original (active voice) sentence into the subject of the new sentence (in passive voice).
“Us” is the object in the original sentence, so we change it to “we” to make it the subject of the new sentence.

Then, we keep the verb in the same tense. So we have “We are ...”

Now we change “someone is following” into “being followed by”.

Finally we put everything together: “We are being followed by someone.”

THE WORLD WITH A THOUSAND MOONS
CHAPTER 1: Thrill Cruise
By Edmond Hamilton

Lance Kenniston felt the cold realization of failure as he came out of the building into the sharp chill of the Martian night. He stood for a moment, his lean, drawn face haggard in the light of the two hurtling moons.

He looked hopelessly across the dark spaceport. It was a large one, for this ancient town of Syrtis was the main port of Mars. The forked light of the flying moons showed many ships docked on the tarmac—a big liner, several freighters, a small, shining cruiser and other small craft. And for lack of one of those ships, his hopes were ruined!

A squat, brawny figure in shapeless space-jacket came to Kenniston's side. It was Holk Or, the Jovian who had been waiting for him.

"What luck?" asked the Jovian in a rumbling whisper.

"It's hopeless," Kenniston answered heavily. "There isn't a small cruiser to be had at any price. The meteor-miners buy up all small ships here."

"The devil!" muttered Holk Or, dismayed. "What are we going to do? Go on to Earth and get a cruiser there?"

"We can't do that," Kenniston answered. "You know we've got to get back to that asteroid within two weeks. We've got to get a ship here."

Desperation made Kenniston's voice taut. His lean, hard face was bleak with knowledge of disastrous failure.

The big Jovian scratched his head. In the shifting moonlight his battered green face expressed ignorant perplexity as he stared across the busy spaceport.

"That shiny little cruiser there would be just the thing," Holk Or muttered, looking at the gleaming, torpedo-shaped craft nearby. "It would hold all the stuff we've got to take; and with robot controls we two could run it."

"We haven't a chance to get that craft," Kenniston told him. "I found out that it's under charter to a bunch of rich Earth youngsters who came out here in it for a pleasure cruise. A girl named Loring, heiress to Loring Radium, is the head of the party."

The Jovian swore. "Just the ship we need, and a lot of spoiled kids are using it for thrill-hunting!"

Kenniston had an idea. "It might be," he said slowly, "that they're tired of the cruise by this time and would sell us the craft. I think I'll go up to the Terra Hotel and see this Loring girl."

"Sure, let's try it anyway," Holk Or agreed.

With the Jovian clumping along beside him, Kenniston made his way from the spaceport across the ancient Martian city.

Read the following lines from the text:

And for lack of one of those ships, his hopes were ruined!

Epic poems are long in length.
Epic poems include events that take place in a very short span of time.
Epic poems include an epic hero.

Answers

Answer:

I think it's c but im not 100% sure

Explanation:

Epic poems often include events that take a long time to complete, that is, events that take place over a long period of time.

Thus, we can state that the correct answer to this question is option C.

Epic poetry is an extensive text that presents the journey of a hero while referring to historical, mythological and religious concepts. The main features of epic poetry are:

Long and narrative poems.It has a narrator and characters.It happens in the past at a historical moment.Presents a noble, strong brave hero.It presents mythological beings.Presents the existence of deities.It has a strong cultural appeal.

Two examples of epic poetry are the poems "Odyssey" and "Illiada" which tell a lot about the culture and region of ancient Greek civilisation.

write a paragraphs about 150 words in holi festival​

Holi

Holi is a famous festival of the Hindus. Very simply, it is called the festival of colours because colours are enormously used during this festival. It generally falls in the month of March. In Nepal, it is mostly celebrated in the Terai; nowadays, it is celebrated all over the country.

This festival does own cultural and religious significance. It is attributed to the story of Prahlad who was a great devotee of God Bishnu but Prahlad's father did not like it. He tried to killed his son, Prahlad, several times but he could not. Once he ordered his sister Holika to burn him to death. She took Prahlad in her arms and sat on a great burning fire. She was once blesssed not to be harmed by a fire, but that time blessing did not help her. She was killed in the fire but Prahlad was safe. Here, Holika stands for destructive evils and Prahlad signifies a true devotee. Holi festival has been celebrated as it symbolizes the of victory of devotion and virtue over evils.

It is celebrated with great joy and enlightnment. People prepare sweets and enjoy them. They also worship gods. Everybody puts on new clothes. Small and young boys manage small parties, sing and dance. People smear their faces with different colours. They throw coloured water on one another. All the participants get wet. Thus, the days of Holi are merry making. In order to create fun, they also exchange and crack funny jokes. Everybody forget sorrows and deserves complete glee and happiness.

This festival has both advantages and disadvantages. This festival seems to be advantageous because people are completely happy. They can build up brotherhood, friendship, love and closeness. This festival helps people remove quarrels, bitterness, enmity, brutality and hatred. But nowadays, we can realize some drawbacks of it.Some people drink, sing vulgar songs and speak filthy language. Such misbehaviour leads them to quarrels, enmity and ruins.

We can say as the conclusion that this festival is really advantageous although it has some disadvantages. People should reform it in order to avoid unpleasant and unwanted activities during this festival. It is expected that the educated people of the societies should play a leading role to reform it. Then, it kills evil thoughts and activities.
