The poet's choice of form has pros and cons. On the one hand, because none of the sentences in the poem are completed, the paragraph-like structure of the poem could make it easy for the reader to get lost or bored. However, this may still have been a valid artistic choice. After all, the poem is about the "elliptical" of excuses for racism, so maybe it makes sense to have the reader get tired, and associate that weariness with those excuses. In contrast, making the poem have lines and stanzas, rather than a paragraph structure, makes the reader more likely to try to interpret the individual significance of each line, rather than look at what the lines all mean together.
Choose one of the following sentences and type a short paragraph about it. Use the sentence you choose as the topic sentence (main idea) of your paragraph. With your paragraph, give one example from the Bible. Tell where that example is found in the Bible.

What is the "lliad of Homer"?
A 24-book epic poem known as The Iliad is generally credited to the ancient Greek poet Homer. The epic is about Achilles' vengeance, a Greek hero. The Trojan War serves as the poem's central theme.
The Iliad, the tale of the Trojan War, imparts to readers a number of moral teachings, such as the necessity of treating family ties with respect and the value of leaders treating their men with respect.
When Athena impersonates one of Hector's brothers and fools him into battling Achilles, who ultimately kills him, Hector knows that Athena has tricked him.
As Hector's family watches in terror from the chariot, Achilles carries Hector's body back to the Achaean camp.

5 Steps to get an Incredible Cover Letter?
HELPPPPP!!!!!! someone answwr it
Answer:
Make the cover letter specific to that job. This differentiates you from the mass of folks submitting generic cover letters. Most folks want to hire someone interested in this job not just any job. We want people who are interested and excited about the opportunity. Mention something in the job description that peaked your interest. Mention something you've done/learned that aligns to the job description. Generic cover letters are so common that these first two items can at least put you in the upper half (or higher) of the stack.
Show some personality, but don't lose your focus. It can be good to mention how how your volunteer work or travels taught you a professional lesson, but don't spend a paragraph talking about your cat.
Proofread and then have another person proofread. There is always someone who has a typo or grammar error in the sentence about their writing skills.
Double and triple check that you are attaching/uploading the correct cover letter. Name each file with the company name to help you keep track (something like "Jane Doe Cover Letter Acme Corp.pdf"). It seems like there is always at least one person who attaches a cover letter that references a different job.

how can understanding oneself pave the way to self-acceptance and better relationship with others?
this is essay please help me .
pleasee
Answer:
Understanding oneself is a key to being more confident and aware of your strengths as well as your weaknesses. Thus it increases self-esteem and makes you more understanding of yourself and others as well. Most people are unhappy in their lives because they don’t accept and love themselves. The only difference is some are conscious of that and some are even too afraid to admit it so they hide behind materialism, image, career, money, you name it (big unhealthy egos usually arise here).

“La Belle Dame sans Merci: A Ballad”
by John Keats
O, what can ail thee, knight-at-arms,
Alone and palely loitering?
The sedge has withered from the lake,
And no birds sing.
O what can ail thee, knight-at-arms,
So haggard and so woe-begone?
The squirrel’s granary is full,
And the harvest’s done.
I see a lily on thy brow,
With anguish moist and fever-dew,
And on thy cheeks a fading rose
Fast withereth too.
I met a lady in the meads
Full beautiful—a faery’s child,
Her hair was long, her foot was light,
And her eyes were wild.
I made a garland for her head,
And bracelets too, and fragrant zone;
She looked at me as she did love,
And made sweet moan.
I set her on my pacing steed,
And nothing else saw all day long,
For sidelong would she bend, and sing
A faery’s song.
She found me roots of relish sweet,
And honey wild, and manna-dew,
And sure in language strange she said—
“I love thee true.”
She took me to her elfin grot,
And there she wept and sighed full sore,
And there I shut her wild wild eyes
With kisses four.
And there she lullèd me asleep,
And there I dreamed—Ah! woe betide!—
The latest dream I ever dreamt
On the cold hill side.
I saw pale kings and princes too,
Pale warriors, death-pale were they all;
They cried—“La Belle Dame sans Merci
Thee hath in thrall!”
I saw their starved lips in the gloam,
With horrid warning gapèd wide,
And I awoke and found me here,
On the cold hill’s side.
And this is why I sojourn here,
Alone and palely loitering,
Though the sedge is withered from the lake,
And no birds sing.

ill give brainly :)))))) Read the following speech excerpt and then select the correct answer to the question below: President George W. Bush’s speech to the troops on the USS Abraham Lincoln Our mission continues. Al-Qaida is wounded, not destroyed. The scattered cells of the terrorist network still operate in many nations, and we know from daily intelligence that they continue to plot against free people. The proliferation of deadly weapons remains a serious danger. The enemies of freedom are not idle, and neither are we. Our government has taken unprecedented measures to defend the homeland — and we will continue to hunt down the enemy before he can strike. The war on terror is not over, yet it is not endless. We do not know the day of final victory, but we have seen the turning of the tide. No act of the terrorists will change our purpose, or weaken our resolve, or alter their fate. Their cause is lost. Free nations will press on to victory. Other nations in history have fought in foreign lands and remained to occupy and exploit. Americans, following a battle, want nothing more than to return home. And that is your direction tonight. After service in the Afghan and Iraqi theaters of war — after 100,000 miles, on the longest carrier deployment in recent history — you are homeward bound. Some of you will see new family members for the first time — 150 babies were born while their fathers were on the Lincoln. Your families are proud of you, and your nation will welcome you. Which line from the text suggests the president believes the war effort has had successes but is not quite complete? Al-Qaida is wounded, not destroyed. Free nations will press on to victory. Americans, following a battle, want nothing more than to return home. Your families are proud of you, and your nation will welcome you.

Answer:
Zero kelvin
Explanation:
The movement of particles becomes slower the colder it gets. However, they completely stop moving only at the temperature of zero kelvin, which is considered the absolute zero, and the temperature that can’t get lower and colder. There is no natural place that is this cold, not even space.
Transformed into Fahrenheit, this temperature would be minus 459.67 degrees, or minus 273.15 degrees on the Celsius scale.
