Which statement reflects the importance of alliterative verse in an epic?​

Answers

Answer:

An alliterative verse is the one that includes an alliteration, which refers to the repetition of initial consonant sounds of closely related syllables. This device is important because the repetition of sounds makes the words easier to memorize. The genre of epic has been closely related to oral communication, and in order to tell the epic, the narrator needs to memorize the poem. For this reason, the importance of alliterative verses in an epic is that they make the poem easy to memorize.

Answer:

it makes it easier to memories

Song of the Open Road

by Walt Whitman

Afoot and light-hearted, I take to the open road,
Healthy, free, the world before me,
The long brown path before me, leading wherever I choose.

Henceforth I ask not good-fortune—I myself am good-fortune;
Henceforth I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing,
Strong and content, I travel the open road. . . .

From this hour, freedom!
From this hour I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines,
Going where I list, my own master, total and absolute,
Listening to others, and considering well what they say,
Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating,
Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me.

I inhale great draughts of space;
The east and the west are mine, and the north and the south are mine.

I am larger, better than I thought;
I did not know I held so much goodness.

All seems beautiful to me;
I can repeat over to men and women, You have done such good to me, I would do the same to you.

I will recruit for myself and you as I go;
I will scatter myself among men and women as I go;
I will toss the new gladness and roughness among them;
Whoever denies me, it shall not trouble me;
Whoever accepts me, he or she shall be blessed, and shall bless me.

Read this line from "Song of the Open Road."

(Answer ASAP please!!!)
Sofia paddled the kayak as quickly as she could, not thinking about where she was headed, only that she wanted to get away from her annoying sister. It was the family’s summer vacation, and Sofia had been stuck in the family’s vacation cabin all week with just Jenna to hang out with, far away from her usual activities and distractions.

Sofia stopped paddling for a moment, relaxed her shoulders, and gazed around. She realized she was surrounded by a dense, smoky fog—as thick as soup and as gray as a battleship. She couldn't see the family's cabin behind her or the other side of the lake in front of her. She knew the fog would burn off as the sun rose, and then she would be able to find her way home, but for now she would have to wait. It gave her time to think.

The fog made her feel invisible, which was not a new or unpleasant feeling for her. Being ignored meant she could get lost in thoughts about the barn where she took riding lessons and helped muck out the stalls. Sofia loved the horses' personalities and felt as though she could communicate with them. Her closest friends were the other barn kids who, like her, hung around the horses as often as possible. She planned to be an equine veterinarian someday. Her twin sister, Jenna, on the other hand, seemed obsessed with popularity, which was why their argument had begun.

"The Watsons invited us to go waterskiing with them this morning."

"I'm not really into waterskiing, plus I hate getting water up my nose. I'll probably just read in the gazebo."

"Oh, come on! I don't want to go alone, and you can read about horse anatomy some other time."

"Actually, I'm reading about a famous feline, I mean cat, doctor who invented—"

"You and your animals, Sofia! Can't you stop being such a horse girl and act like a normal seventh grader for a change?"

"Not everyone wants to run around trying to be cool and popular all the time, Jenna!"

The argument had gone on like this for several more rounds before Jenna stomped off down the driveway and Sofia jumped into the kayak and paddled away.

Now the bow of the kayak scraped against the sandy shore, and Sofia realized she was probably on the other side of the lake. After she got out of the kayak and pulled it onto the beach, she sat down on the damp sand and waited for the sun to burn off the fog. She began to regret fighting with her sister. She loved Jenna but getting along was truly challenging. “Identical twins are supposed to have a magical, mysterious bond, so why don't we have that?” she wondered. Sofia looked out at the lake and the clearing fog. In the distance, Jenna and their mother were paddling toward her in the orange canoe.

The twins and their mother sat close together on the little beach. "Listen girls," their mother began, "You're twins but you're also wonderfully unique and strong-minded individuals. Enjoy your differences and support each other because no matter what you do in life, and no matter who your friends are, you will always be sisters."

Sofia turned to Jenna and the girls looked into one another’s eyes. Sofia didn’t see her enemy there, just her sister. Though Jenna was sometimes challenging, she was always someone Sofia loved. Both girls smiled.

In "Coming Through Fog," why does the invitation to go water-skiing create a conflict in the story?

Both sisters want to go water-skiing, but only one knows how to water ski.

Jenna wants Sofia to go, but Sofia already has plans to meet her friends at the barn.

Jenna wants Sofia to go, but Sofia prefers to stay home.

Both sisters want to go, but only one was invited by the Watsons.

Answers

Answer:

The fact that he placed his awards on a triangular scrap suggests that he no longer placed much value on them

Explanation:

Shamengwa is a fiddle (or a violin player) who is partially challenged in one arm. He is described as an old man, a granduncle who has had his fair share of years.

Though he and his music are popular because they are emotive, the narrator states that he is seldom invited to popular jigs. His music was doubled-edged.   It made people happy as much as it made them cry. Because of this, he wasn't wanted at every party. Parties were for dancing and happiness. He had a maverick way of expressing his soul through the violin.

His popularity has earned him a reasonable amount of awards, the kinds that were more Class B in nature. His awards meant little to him. To him, they were relics of the past. He'd rather have his grandniece play with them than have them properly kept or taken care of.

Disease would probably be almost long gone, as that is what causes bacteria growth and bacteria growth = disease

Explanation:

Garbage attracts rats and mice, dogs, and bugs.

Mosquitoes already carry diseases such as malaria, dengue, zika virus and many more, as they suck your blood, so already infected people may get bitten and that blood may be stuck on the mosquitoes mouth. The mosquito then bites another person which can transfer the infected person's personal problems to another person which can be deadly. Dogs may have rabies if they are undomesticated so they can infect other people. Garbage is usually piled near cities so rabid animals and mosquitoes may get attracted to the cities causing a path of death.

Read about a recent natural disaster, such as a tornado, hurricane, tsunami, flash flood in your region, drought, or mudslide.
Turn the true account into a myth. Explain the natural
disaster as if the reason behind it was a result of improper human behavior.

Answers

Answer:

There are many ways to describe the wave of disasters—the hurricanes, wildfires, and droughts—that have swept across North America this summer.

You could call them unprecedented. After all, Irma and Harvey were the first two category four hurricanes to make landfall in the United States in the same year. You might call them harrowing, especially when you consider that more than six million acres of land—a million in Montana alone—have burned during this year's wildfire season. And no one paying attention to the aftermath of hurricanes Maria, Harvey, and Irma would hesitate to call those storms devastating. Puerto Rico's 3.4 million residents have struggled for more than a week with no electricity, and more than half of them still don't have clean water. And, for the first time in more than 300 years, no one is living on the Island of Barbuda; all 94,000 residents have left.

There are many ways to describe this summer’s calamities. But whatever you call these disasters, don't ever call them natural. There’s nothing “natural”—which is to say, nothing inevitable—about a disaster.

Most of what we call natural disasters (tornadoes, droughts, hurricanes) are indeed natural, though human contributions may increase their likelihood or intensity. But they aren't disasters—they're hazards. If a hurricane slams into land where no one lives, it isn't a disaster; it's weather. A disaster is when a natural hazard meets a human population. And often, that intersection is far from natural.

(This is just my opinion)

Explanation:

BRAINLIEST ??

Answer:

The city of Tutaham was a beautiful city before calamity struck. Situated on the extreme coast of North America, Tutaham was an important site with many cultural and religious associations for people. The people in the city led a very luxurious life and never experienced any scarcity. The city was believed to be blessed by the native god. However, the people of the city were totally immersed in enjoying the material life that they enjoyed. Even though they had all kinds of luxuries, the people in Tutaham started to fight for power. Each one wanted to have the upper hand over the other. The people in the city did not need anything, but they grew greedy and wanted to take over the belongings of others. In the quest to gain power and become richer, the people of the city started to fight and kill each other. Angered by the selfish behavior of the people, the presiding deity of the city created a hurricane that destroyed every bit of Tutaham. It spared no human or animal that came in its way. The fury of the hurricane left people devastated and it unleashed disease and death in its aftermath.

In most myths, whenever humans become selfish, and there is decline in human values and morals, some divine being introduces difficulties and problems in the lives of people to make them realize the importance of humanity. In this story, the people of the city became avaricious and selfish. With a surplus of all the riches to satisfy everyone, they still chose to squabble and fight for power. This irked their native god and he decided to teach them a harsh lesson. Repeatedly, various mythologies have driven home the lesson that as humans become headstrong and selfish, and start to meddle with each other’s lives thoughtlessly, calamity arises, usually driven by a wrathful deity who shakes people into awareness.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:it is d

The historical detail that the authors of BOTH “Moving to America” and “A Fateful Journey” include option D: Bremen was a large steamship port.

Which historical detail did the authors of BOTH “Moving to America” and “A Fateful Journey” include?

The texts represent about the expensive trips and the ships didn't have the resources to keep their travelers more comfortable. Both texts appear the reality of the ships that move the immigrants to America.

Moreover, the immigrants have to spend several months on ships, in a limited space, overcrowded and with little comfort.

Adding to it, food was limited, and immigrants did not know if they would make it to America alive and healthy. The author tries to define the difficulties, or the issues faced by the immigrants who travel through ships. Rest all options like A, B and C are incorrect.

Therefore, correct option is D.

Review the rubric to ensure you are turning in your best work.

Answers

Answer:

Reading multiple texts about a single topic—even if those texts express opposing viewpoints—can help deepen and improve your understanding. For that reason, you will now read an excerpt from Captain Canot, or Twenty Years of an African Slaver.

Before you begin, know that Canot was a slave trader. His views on the institution of slavery and the practice of treating human beings as cargo are repulsive. Likewise, his descriptions of the conditions that enslaved people faced aboard his ship are disturbing. Reading Canot’s work, however, offers us the chance to more fully understand the brutal realities of slavery and to develop a greater appreciation for Frederick Douglass’s efforts to see the institution ended.

Finally, as you read this memoir, remember that different texts—particularly difficult ones—require multiple reading strategies at once.
