Answer:
When they say they don't make movies like they used to, this is the sort of film they are talking about. Despite its flaws (and there are some), it is easily one of the best musicals ever made. Beginning with the overture and the opening scenes of New York City, circa 1960, it almost screams "classic." Some have criticized Natalie Wood's Maria (her dubious accent and the dubbed-in singing) or Richard Beymer's Tony (his slightly smarmy interpretation of the ex gang member gone straight), but the fact remains, their wholesome, fresh-faced characterizations defined the roles. And you simply can't top the film's instrumental score, its great songs ("Maria," "Tonight," "America," "I Feel Pretty," "A Place For Us," "I Have a Love," and "Officer Krupke"), its excellent choreography, or its very effective cinematography. Rita Moreno, as Anita, delivers what was probably her best performance in the movies, in particular her dancing and singing in "America," while Russ Tamblyn, as Rif, the charismatic leader of the Jets, is seldom given the credit he deserved. Natalie Wood on the rooftop, anticipating another meeting with her newfound love, is a vision of grace and innocence, while George Chakiris as her brother Bernardo, the leader of the Sharks, is very convincing as the persecuted immigrant/mean-spirited hoodlum. And its not as if these are the only actors who did a great job. A number of the other supporting roles are delivered with memorable professionalism, too. In fact, the cast as a whole is superb.
This movie poignantly (if simplistically) explores the purity of first love, while tackling intolerance and racism head-on, avoiding the tired, politically correct clichés that movies of today too often wallow in. Despite the simplicity of the story, it is always an emotional experience, no matter how many times you've seen it. While it is true that the Academy Awards have become very politicized, and no doubt always were to a degree, this movie snagged ten of them when great movies were being turned out almost as often as mindless pap is today. Not to be missed.

what is the Literal meaning and the figurative meaning of the poem and explain
Answer:
the Literal Meaning-
A boy grows up playing games with his father. One day, his father leaves (to jail). The boy didn't know why then, but he knows now. He wrote a letter to his father explaining that he has so much more to learn that hasn't been explained yet. The father writes back, saying that he is sorry, but can't be there for him, so he needs to be there for himself.
This is a story about relying on others, walking past that, and learning to be independent.

Answer:
O A It conveys that nobodies can experience companionship rather than simply isolation
Explanation:
Hello. You did not inform the poem to which this question refers, but when researching your question on the internet, I found a question exactly the same as yours that showed that the poem is called “I'm Nobody! Who are you? ” written by Emily Dickinson.
In this poem the speaker considers himself a "nobody," a person without importance and without recognition. The speaker believes that it is better to be nobody than to be someone and that being nobody promotes a less tiring life. To prevent the idea that being nobody is lonely, the speaker presents the line "Then there’s a pair of us!" which is the third line of the poem, where the speaker assumes that the reader is also a nobody and that therefore the speaker and the reader are not alone, but form a pair and keep each other company. This means that a "nobody" does not have to live in isolation, but can enjoy the company of another "nobody."

Why is it important for people to have the opportunity to define their own cultural identity as opposed to allowing themselves to be labeled by others as belonging to one group or another?
Answer:
Because it is important that the individual identifies himself with the cultural concepts with which he feels comfortable and happy.
Explanation:
Cultural identity is a very important characteristic for the construction of an individual's personality, in addition to helping in the composition of behavior and in the feeling of belonging and comfort. This is because cultural identity is what allows a person to identify himself/herself as a member of a people. Once the individual is able to determine his/her cultural identity, it is possible that he or she will be able to assume cultural concepts and customs with this people. Cultural identity is highly malleable, but it is important that it is built based on the individual's own thoughts, preferences and concepts, as only the individual will be able to build an identification.

Explanation:
I looked it up on a dictionary :/
Answer:
All living organisms respond to changes in the enviornment. They must do this in order to maintain homeostasis, the process of maintaining a constant and balanced environment inside the body. For example, body tempreture is maintained in the human body at around 98.7 degrees F. when the body temp. increases above its normal range, we will perspire (sweating) to try to cool and bring the body temp. down. We will shiver so the muscles create heat to try to warm and bring the body temp.

Write a short paragraph using each of the following:
One noun phrase
One verb phrase
One infinitive phrase
One prepositional phrase
One gerund phrase
One participle phrase
One appositive phrase
Answer:
I do encourage people to try and come up with sentences use the examples and definition below to help you. <3
Explanation:
A noun phrase is a group of words that work together to name and describe a person, place, thing, or idea. When we look at the structure of writing, we treat a noun phrase the same way we treat a common noun.
If a sentence has just one verb phrase, it is a finite verb phrase. The head verb is finite and either comes in present or past form. For instance: I go to college in the morning.
An infinitive phrase is a group of words that starts with the infinitive. Infinitive phrase example: to swim in the pool. An infinitive phrase can function as a noun, adjective, or adverb.
A prepositional phrase is a part of a sentence that consists of one preposition and the object it affects. The object of a prepositional phrase can be either a noun, gerund, or clause. Here’s an example of a prepositional phrase: She caught the bus on time.
A gerund is one of three classes of words called verbals — words based on verbs and expressing an action or a state of being but serving another grammatical function. (The other two are participles and infinitives.) A gerund, which functions as a noun, can consist of a single word or a phrase. 1. Subject Gardening is my favorite hobby.
A participle phrase is an adjective phrase headed by a participle. In the sentence 'Jumping up, Jack realized he had won,' 'Jumping up' is a participle phrase that described 'Jack.' A participle phrase can be headed by a present participle or a past participle.
An appositive is a noun or noun phrase (appositive phrase) that gives another name to the noun right next to it. It adds descriptive words about a specific thing (the noun), which helps make a sentence more detailed; or, it adds essential information to make the sentence’s meaning clear.
