Read this poem by Carl Sandburg:

A Fence

Now the stone house on the lake front is finished and the workmen are beginning the fence. The palings are made of iron bars with steel points that can stab the life out of any man who falls on them. As a fence, it is a masterpiece, and will shut off the rabble and all vagabonds and hungry men and all wandering children looking for a place to play. Passing through the bars and over the steel points will go nothing except Death and the Rain and To-morrow. What feeling about the fence does Sandburg create with his choice of words?

lonely

welcoming

forbidding

humorous​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I think forbidding.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The feeling about the fence does Sandburg create with his choice of words is forbidding.

The correct option is C.

Based on the description provided in the poem, Carl Sandburg creates a feeling of forbidding with his choice of words.

The use of phrases such as "steel points that can stab the life out of any man" and "shut off the rabble and all vagabonds and hungry men" suggests a sense of strict exclusion and a barrier that is meant to keep people out.

The language used conveys a sense of intimidation and harshness, indicating that the fence is not meant to be welcoming or humorous.

Therefore, the correct choice is "forbidding."

It has been suggested that the Dinomatron shortage was a conspiracy
to drive up prices, but I disagree. First of all, no one could have
predicted the immense popularity of this toy. Just last year, a very
similar dinosaur-building kit was ignored by shoppers. Second, severe
winter weather all along the East Coast led to shipping delays,
contributing to the shortage. Could someone
have conspired to create
bad weather? I don't think so. The Dinomatron price increase was the
natural result of supply and demand economics. During the busy
holiday shopping season, weather prevented toy stores from receiving
enough toys to fill demand. Therefore, they became more valuable.
How would the author best respond to à counterclaim that Dinomatron is
made by the same company that created a holiday toy shortage the previous
year?
A. By pointing out the lack of severe weather during the previous
year's holiday season
B. By suggesting that this company simply releases great toys that
everyone wants
C. By explaining how the Dinomatron toy is different from last year's
popular toy
D. By including a quote from someone who was unable to purchase a
Dinomatron toy
answer quick for 16 points no joke or I will report

Answers

Answer:

C. By explaining how the Dinomatron toy is different from last year's  popular toy.

Explanation:

The author would best respond to the counterclaim that Dinomatron is  made by the same company that created a holiday toy shortage the previous  year by explaining how the Dinomatron toy is different from last year's  popular toy. The author's counterclaim will show that there Dimantron is unique and different and could not compared to the previous year's popular toy. Dinomatron brand of toys has distinguishing features that makes it unique from others.

She shares a 'daddy's girl' kind of relationship and shared a special emotional bond with him. He was quite liberal to her and a very supportive father. This reveals that Anne is a good girl but lacks the love and care from her mother. Her mother's harsh and critical attitude is the key reason for her mad behavior.

Champollion will translate the rest of the Rosetta Stone’s hieroglyphs.

The Rosetta Stone will never be fully translated by an scholar.

Explanation:

The attempt to unveil the messages stored in Rosetta Stone is far from over, due to the difficulty in finding sources and references about the meanings of hieroglyphs. This difficulty is so great that it goes beyond time and it is likely that Rosetta Stone will never be fully translated by any scholar and its complete message remains a mystery forever. However, we can count on the translation of part of the message, because the tireless work of some historians, like Champollion, will be able to find the meaning of parts of the message.

Explanation:

Forests cover about 31% of the land on Earth, but, sadly, that number is decreasing at a rapid rate. Deforestation, human-driven and natural loss of trees, is one of the main causes of this depletion. A natural loss of trees might come from a fire, for example, but deforestation done by humans is more common and involves removing trees to make room for something else. This can include clearing the land for farming or using the wood from trees for fuel, construction, or manufacturing. Despite these potential economic benefits, deforestation should be stopped because forests are too important for people, animals, and the environment.

Answers

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Deforestation is one of the major problems in modern society and must be stopped immediately. Deforestation is often necessary for the advancement of society, but it is necessary to do it in a conscious and bio-sustainable way, causing the least possible impact on nature, as we need it to survive and if we destroy it we will be destroying ourselves.

In addition, inconsequential deforestation destroys biodiversity and promotes problems to the fauna, causing many sufferings to the most diverse species of animals.
