Read this excerpt from Helen Keller's autobiography, The Story of My Life.
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-1-1." 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.

Which pair of uses of figurative language from "The Caged Bird" help support the extended metaphor of freedom versus oppression? back of the wind; floats downstream his wings are clipped; his feet are tied the caged bird sings; the free bird thinks dawn bright lawn; grave of dreams
Answers
Answer:
The caged bird sings; the free bird thinks
Explanation:
The pair of uses of figurative language from "The Caged Bird" that help support the extended metaphor of freedom versus oppression is "the caged bird sings; the free bird thinks".
Metaphor is a figure of speech which actually describes an action or thing in a way that is not literally true but it helps to make a comparison.
The use of "the caged bird sings" and "the free bird thinks" shows the comparison of the caged bird and the free bird. It tends to show what the personality does when oppressed and when free. They show an extended metaphor of freedom versus oppression.
"The Caged Bird" is a poem by Maya Angelou which is concerned with imprisonment and an inner urge for freedom.

Which selection best supports the central idea that getting involved with politics can be a fun and rewarding way to make a difference in your community?
If you want to make a difference in your community, one option to consider is running for office. Most cities and towns have many elected positions, from school board to city council to mayor, and any citizen over 18 years old can run. Once you're elected, you'll have the opportunity to help solve problems and make decisions to improve people's lives. Plus, you can consider running for higher offices, like state representative, governor, or even president!
Of course, getting elected is usually not easy. Even local positions are highly competitive, and you'll need to be organized and hardworking to run a successful political campaign. Before you run, you should be prepared to raise money, give speeches, and have a well-thought-out plan about what you want to accomplish once elected. But the most important thing you can do is to get to know as many people as you can in your community, because your friends and neighbors may well become your greatest supporters.

Answer:
B. But the most important thing you can do is to get to know as many people as you can in your community, because your friends and neighbors may well become your greatest supporters.
Explanation:
The selection that best supports the central idea that getting involved with politics can be a fun and rewarding way to make a difference in your community is selection B. In this passage, meeting new people is mentioned. Friends are something we associate with fun, and running for office with their support could be an interesting experience.
The rest of the options lack this element of fun. They simply mention improving people's lives, different positions you can run for, and how hard you should work in order to run a successful political campaign. This is why option B is the correct one.

Hi, you've asked an incomplete/unclear question. The full question read;
Which of the phrases below is not in the future perfect continuous?
a) You will have been waiting here for three hours by 8 o'clock.
b) You will be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.
c) By the end of next month I will have been living here for ten years.
d) When I finish this course, I will have been learning Italian for ten years.
e) Next month I will have been working here for two years.
Answer:
b) You will be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.
Explanation:
We make this conclusion because the phrase "will have been" (which is the future perfect of the verb "to be") is often added to the subject of a sentence to make it future perfect continuous.
However, after careful check of all the sentences, we notice all of them except option b used the future perfect continuous phrase, "will have been."

Answers
Answer:

The first “The time when trees are blooming with flowers the time when the sun shines and birds sing sweetly” is spring. The second “the time when snow coats tree branches and the sky is gray the time when few or no leaves hang on boughs” is fall or winter.
What is Spring?Spring is the season during which the natural world revives and reinvigorates after the colder winter months. During spring, dormant plants begin to grow again, new seedlings sprout out of the ground and hibernating animals awake.
What most people call spring relies on the astronomical definition of the word. Defined by the angle of Earth's tilt toward the sun, astronomical spring relies on equinoxes and solstices to define it.
Equinoxes are days during the year when day and night are almost equal. There are two equinoxes each calendar year, one in the spring and one in the fall. The spring, or vernal, equinox occurs around March 20 in the Northern Hemisphere and around Sept. 22 in the Southern Hemisphere.
Therefore, The first “The time when trees are blooming with flowers the time when the sun shines and birds sing sweetly” is spring. The second “the time when snow coats tree branches and the sky is gray the time when few or no leaves hang on boughs” is fall or winter.

They provide false reasons in support of a claim, making the writer seem less credible.
Explanation:
The use of fallacy is using faulty arguments to support the opinion. At the first glance, the fallacious opinion can seem better than it is, but it is not supported by facts, and the reader can have the feeling the writer is dishonest.
By using fallacies, the writer is discrediting his work and words.

How is it possible that an area of the world can go temporarily dark in the middle of the
day?
Answers
As you know earth rotates and so does the sun and moon, and occasionaly the moon will cover sun when its souposed to be day but this would only happen very rarely because it takes planets a very long time to overlap when rotating the orbit.
This is possible through a solar eclipse.
We can arrive at this answer because:
At midday, the incidence of sunlight on the earth reaches its greatest intensity, which means that this is the time when a city should be illuminated by sunlight.However, some cities experience an event known as a solar eclipse, which allows for a short period, the city becomes dark at midday.The solar eclipse occurs when the moon places itself between the earth and the sun. This ends up causing a blockage of sunlight, which cannot reach as it hits the moon.
The moon, in turn, casts a shadow that darkens the earth, even at midday. This effect is temporary and wears off after a few hours.
