Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog, when it seemed as if a tangible white darkness shut you in, and the great ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore with plummet and sounding-line, and you waited with beating heart for something to happen? I was like that ship before my education began, only I was without compass or sounding-line, and had no way of knowing how near the harbour was. "Light! give me light!" was the wordless cry of my soul, and the light of love shone on me in that very hour. . . .
The morning after my teacher came she led me into her room and gave me a doll. The little blind children at the Perkins Institution had sent it and Laura Bridgman had dressed it; but I did not know this until afterward. When I had played with it a little while, Miss Sullivan slowly spelled into my hand the word "d-o-l-l." I was at once interested in this finger play and tried to imitate it. When I finally succeeded in making the letters correctly I was flushed with childish pleasure and pride. Running downstairs to my mother I held up my hand and made the letters for doll. I did not know that I was spelling a word or even that words existed; I was simply making my fingers go in monkey-like imitation. In the days that followed I learned to spell in this uncomprehending way a great many words, among them pin, hat, cup and a few verbs like sit, stand and walk.

Bleak darkness was blacking out the sea and jungle when Rainsford sighted the lights. He came upon them as he turned a crook in the coast line, and his first thought was that he had come upon a village, for there were many lights. But as he forged along he saw to his great astonishment that all the lights were in one enormous building—a lofty structure with pointed towers plunging upward into the gloom. His eyes made out the shadowy outlines of a palatial chateau; it was set on a high bluff, and on three sides of it cliffs dived down to where the sea licked greedy lips in the shadows.
"Mirage," thought Rainsford. But it was no mirage, he found, when he opened the tall spiked iron gate. The stone steps were real enough; the massive door with a leering gargoyle for a knocker was real enough; yet above it all hung an air of unreality.

Delta blues and hill country blues are two distinctive genres that originated in the state of Mississippi, which is regarded as the birthplace of the blues.Three major blues genres: work songs/field hollers, delta blues, and Chicago blues.

Which of the following BEST states the difference between blues in the North and blues in the South?

The relationship between classic blues and rhythm and blues in the Southern Soul style is one of the most difficult concepts for a newbie to grasp.I've discovered in my wanderings around the Delta over the years that each radio station and DJ has a unique approach.However, all Southern DJs would concur that Southern Soul does relate to a genre apart from traditional blues.While the "blues" has its roots in a much wider lineage of blues musicians, Southern Soul is descended from the classic R&B of the 1960s (which also contains rock, country, pop, and other influences in addition to Motown, Philly, Memphis, and Chicago-style rhythm and blues). The fact that only traditional blues is reflected in the blues charts published by "Billboard" frustrates those of us who are evangelizing the "new" rhythm and blues.The charts are not to blame.The bulk of music consumers only link traditional blues with the genre or even realize it exists. Naturally, this leads Deep South deejays and station owners to adopt a "circle-the-wagons" approach.They recognize that frequent radio airplay is the "nourishment"—the photosynthesis, if you will—the burgeoning genre needs to grow and are naturally protective of the budding Southern Soul movement.The magical and still-fragile world of Southern Soul will start to fade on his radio airwaves, and the more traditional blues legacies of Memphis and New Orleans will start to take over—take over, at least, any "alternative" spot not already monopolized by commercial R&B. This is why your Daddy B. Nice always drives north to Memphis or west to New Orleans from the epicenter of the music in central Mississippi. He always does so with a certain regret.

Read this excerpt from Anne Frank Remembered.

Suddenly, what had been familiar about this man's voice clicked in my mind. He was speaking German with a distinct Viennese accent. He spoke exactly like all my relatives, the ones I had left so many years ago.

This man came back into my office, but his tone was changing, and I could see that he no longer regarded me as an innocent. Obviously, he had figured out that I was also part of what had been secret. He came in and stood over me, saying, in a harsh voice, "Now it's your turn." He reached down and took the keys that Koophuis had given me.

I stood up, coming face to face with this man. I could feel his hot breath, we were standing so close. I looked him right in the eye and said in German, "You are Viennese. I am from Vienna too."

write the following in passivevoice i am sweeping the room​

Answers

Answer:

The room is being swept (by me).

Explanation:

Passive voice is a construction that we use when we want to put the accent on a person or an object that is under the influence of a subject`s performed action ( in this case: the room)

Passive voice form is being made by using the appropriate form of the verb to be + past participle.

Subject and object from the sentence in the active voice switch places in the sentence in a passive voice ( I; the room - the room; (by) me).

In the given sentence the used tense is present continuous and the appropriate form of the verb to be for that tense in passive voice is  is being.

However, Bellamy Blake (Bob Morley) and Octavia Blake (Marie Avgeopoulos) have had one of the most endearing relationships on the show. Over the past six seasons, we have seen how Bellamy's overprotective nature and Octavia's struggle to be her own person have interfered with their once-perfect relationship.

This question is about the book called "Born A Crime" by Trevor Noah

Answer and Explanation:

Noah's mother was South African and her father was a Swiss. During the apartheind marriage between them was forbidden, but Noah's father wanted to have a relationship with his mother, while Noah's mother wanted to have a child, but did not want a man in her life. This allowed Noah's mother to have a relationship (even though it was considered a crime) and to get pregnant, without having to marry Noah's father, and this allowed Noah's father to have a relationship with Noah's mother, without having to assume and taking care of a future child. That's what happened, but when Noah was born and he was neither a white child nor a black child, he was considered a crime, since the relationship between whites and blacks was illegal and he was clearly the result of such a relationship.
