Is it true that the people in every country are divided into the “haves” and the “have nots”? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

answer is below :)

Explanation:

Over the past two decades, a growing share of the public has come to the view that American society is divided into two groups, the “haves” and the “have-nots.” Today, Americans are split evenly on the two-class question with as many saying the country is divided along economic lines as say this is not the case (48% each). In sharp contrast, in 1988, 71% rejected this notion, while just 26% saw a divided nation.

Of equal importance, the number of Americans who see themselves among the “have-nots” of society has doubled over the past two decades, from 17% in 1988 to 34% today. In 1988, far more Americans said that, if they had to choose, they probably were among the “haves” (59%) than the “have-nots” (17%). Today, this gap is far narrower (45% “haves” vs. 34% “have-nots”).

If you believe in evolution by natural selection, how can you believe that feelings suddenly appeared, out of the blue, with human beings?​

Answers

I hope this is not a real question you have to answer for school. If so, respond how you see best. If there is a “right answer” for this question, I don’t know it. But if it’s up to you, and you want my educated answer, I would say this.

Evolution by natural selection is purely impossible. Without bias, it is impossible. In order for a painting to appear, there must be a painter. In order for a building to appear, there must be a builder. In order for creation to appear, there must be a creator. We didn’t happen by chance. We were creating by a creator. So feelings did not come out of the blue, they were always there, within us, because our creator made us that way.

Write a poem, focused on a topic of your choosing. You must use at least two of the figurative language techniques from this lesson. Your poem must be at least three stanzas with four lines per stanza (twelve lines in total), and can be free verse or have a rhyme scheme.

Answers

Answer:

The happiness of waking up early.

When the day dawns

I hear the sun calling me

I get up quickly, taking his order

For another day is beginning.

It seems uncomfortable when I speak

But waking up early is awesome

For the day full of opportunities begins

and renew my hopes with dew.

Many do not admire my prowess

Waking up early every day

They prefer the company of the moon as nocturnal animals

And they sleep all day to make up for it.

I really like the company of the sun

Of heat and movement.

Everyone seems refreshed by the day

And that is my encouragement.

Explanation:

The poem was written in white verse, with four stanzas and four verses each.

As was asked in the question above, two types of figurative language were used. One challenge is personification, which allowed the sun to have the capacity to call someone, which only humans can do. This can be seen on the line "I hear the sun calling me"

In addition, the metaphor was used to make a comparison between people who sleep late and nocturnal animals. This can be seen on the line "They prefer the company of the moon as nocturnal animals ".

Answer:

Here ya go :D

Explanation:

She wore an angered expression paired with blue eyes sharp as frozen daggers.

Not worried about piercing you,

but rather how much you'd bleed.

Daggers that killed countless lives on a cold winter day.

Daggers that have been cleaned of blood by simply dipping them in the snow.

Making the knife as cold as the heart of the person who used it.

Daggers that killed ones it loved and cherished.

Daggers that show no mercy.

Daggers that stained the clean snow red that winter's evening.

Though the dagger wasn't kind, the winter day was.

Children played in the white flakes.

People built innocent snowmen.

Along with that they also built bonds and memories.

They built things they loved and not too soon after, lost.

Everyone played in the snow and built bonds no matter how different they were.

The winter day brought them together with to intention of taking them apart.

The winter loved them.

The winter thrived off of their happiness.

Joy was its source of life.

This is why her daggers are frozen.

She is the kindest soul to exist.

Yet she is not to be underestimated or you might just end up cut.

Answers

Answer:

A. Simile ➡️ Life is like a box of chocolates.

B. Metaphor ➡️Ping pong was his life.

C. Hyperbole➡️He ran for an eternity.

D. Personification ➡️The world is just waiting for you to go enjoy it.

E. Allusion ➡️Maybe Forrest Gump had it right about life.

Explanation:

I have been able to successfully match the figurative terms to their examples.

Simile is a figurative term which uses "as" and "like" to compare things. Metaphor is a figure of speech which actually explains or describes something in a way that is not literally true but actually helps to make a comparison.

Hyperbole is a figure of speech which tends to exaggerate and overemphasize something in order to get noticed. It is usually used to overly stress something. Just like this example: "He ran for an eternity"

Personification is a figure of speech which attributes human qualities to a thing, idea or an animal. Just like the above example on personification; attributing the world to a person that can wait. While allusion is used to directly or indirectly refer an object or situation.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1. Because she is a woman far ahead of her time, presenting women in positions that were not stimulated in society and that could shock listeners. Her story is about female freedom, wisdom and even sexual freedom and that was not something advocated in women at the time.

2. The king's punishment is for the knight to be executed for having abused a maiden against her will.

3. The queen begs the king for mercy. The irony in this is that no one imagined that the queen would impose a task so that the knight would not be executed, as readers might think that she would intercede for the knight only because she was kind and not a strategist as she proved to be.

4. Bath's wife claims that having the power to dominate is what binds women to men, because by dominating their husbands, women are able to satisfy their desires and enjoy everything that gives them pleasure. What the old woman values most is the loyalty between the couple

Which idea is BEST supported by this paragraph?

Question 1 options:

Swarbrick is working to slow climate change, as she believes that her generation will have to face the challenges posed by climate change decades later.

Swarbrick is working to slow climate change, and she thinks more people her age should be part of this effort.

Answers

Answer:

Swarbrick is young compared with other parliamentarians, and she feels that the older generation cannot understand the threat of global warming.

Explanation:

The given passage is from the text titled "OK, boomer, " retorts lawmaker to heckler during climate change meeting .

It tells about Chlöe Swarbrick's speech in the New Zealand Parliament. Bringing the attention of the rest of the parliament to an important issue, climate change, she mentions her age, emphasizing that it will be the younger generations who will be dealing with the consequences of global warming, not most of the members of the parliament, who will no longer be its members in a couple of decades. They do not understand the threat of global warming, which is why they are not paying attention to it, despite the fact they should.

This is why the third option is the correct one.
