Read the excerpt from "An Hour With Abuelo."

I walk fast to room 10, Abuelo's "suite." He is sitting up in his bed writing with a pencil in one of those old-fashioned black hardback notebooks. It has the outline of the island of Puerto Rico on it. I slide into the hard vinyl chair by his bed.

How does this excerpt best develop the setting in the story?

It shows that Abuelo lives in a large, fancy room.

It explains how easy it is for Arturo to get around the nursing home.

It reveals that the nursing home is an uncomfortable place for Arturo.

2. The Bicycle Empowerment Network (BEN) is an organisation
with two main aims to promote eco-friendly, healthy and low-
cost pedal power in underprivileged communities, and to create
jobs by giving people the chance to start up their own bicycle
workshops, called Bicycle Empowerment Centres (BEC). More
than 13000 bicycles - old and new - have been donated to BEN
from countries across the globe over the past decade. Not bad
for an organisation started by the aptly named Andrew Wheeldon,
who has a passion for peddling.

1.why does the article state that Andrew Wheelman is "aptly" named? The keyword will help you to understand what "aptly" means.​

Answers

Answer:

The article stated that Andrew Wheeldon is aptly named because of the irony in his organization about bicycles and his love for peddling, all concerning 'wheels'.

Explanation:

According to the dictionary, the word "aptly" is defined as any action done in "a manner that is appropriate or suitable in the circumstance". This means that it is used to talk of things that are appropriate and clever for the circumstance.

Now, the passage talks of the Bicycle Empowerment Network (BEN) and how it was started by a man named "Andrew Wheeldon". So, looking at his name and the word "wheel", it is quite clever or even hilarious that the BEN is founded by a guy whose name has the word "wheel" on it, and also loves peddling too. So, one can say, in jest, that he was the right man to start the organization. He is suited for the job.

Explanation:

First conditional statements refer to future events that have a high possibility of occurring. For example, in the sentence, "Glory will cook the food", there is a high possibility to the fact that this event will occur.

Second conditionals are used in sentences where the possibility of the event happening is very low. For example in the statement, "I'd leap for joy if I found a bag full of money in the bush". Even though things like this happen, their chances of happening is quite low.

an essay on my birthday party of 100 words​

My relatives and close friends started pouring in, the afternoon. Some of them who came from distant places took lunch with us.

The party started in our large dinner hall in the evening. The place was well-lighted with colourful lamps, balloons, ribbons and bunting. The chairs had been arranged by the servants. A large table was laid in the middle of the room.

The cake arrived on time. The renowned baker, Mr. Sirnran, had prepared it. It was a beautiful chocolate cake with the words “Happy Birthday to Reena” embossed on it.

I stood before the cake in a fascinating dress and looked like a princess as the study of snaps later told me. I cut the cake after extinguishing all the candles but one. Everybody clapped saying ‘,Happy Birthday to you.

Explanation:

This question is asking us to mix the second and the third conditionals. This can be done to show how a distant past action influences actions today. All sentences using this kind of mixed conditional are hypothetical, meaning the speaker knows that what he is talking about can no longer happen.

Let's form examples with the second, third, and mixed conditionals to compare:

- Second: I would be so happy if James showed up today. → would / simple past

- Third: I would have been so happy last week if James had showed up. → would + have + past participle / past perfect

- Mixed: I would be happy today if James had given me my present last week. → would / past perfect

Notice that, in the last case, we use the past perfect to talk about a distant action in the past, and the auxiliary "would" to refer to an effect in the present.

Identify the figurative language used in these stanzas of Amy Lowell's "In Excelsis."

In complete sentences, explain how it is used to convey meaning in the poem. (20 points)

You are frozen as the clouds,
You are far and sweet as the high clouds.
I dare reach to you,
I dare touch the rim of your brightness.
I leap beyond the winds,
I cry and shout,
For my throat is keen as a sword
Sharpened on a hone of ivory.
My throat sings the joy of my eyes,
The rushing gladness of my love.

Answers

The main figurative language used in the stanzas is simile.
Examples of simile in the stanzas:
You are frozen AS the clouds, you are far and sweet AS the high clouds, for my throat is keen AS a sword
There is also personification used in one line
The line that uses personification:
My throat SINGS the joy of my eyes (giving the throat the human-like characteristic of being able to sing)
To add on, hyperbole is also used in the line that says “I LEAP beyond the winds”
Imagery is also used throughout the poem
Lines that use imagery: “my throat sings the joy of my eyes”, “I dare touch the rim of your brightness”, “for my throat is keen as a sword”
The use of similes contributes to the overall meaning of the poem as it makes comparisons between two things, allowing for a better comprehension of the poem.
The use of personification contributes to the overall meaning of the poem as it gives human characteristics to the person’s throat, allowing the reader to infer that the person has a beautiful voice. The use of a hyperbole contributes to the overall meaning of the poem as it is used to exaggerate the overall poem, giving it a stronger meaning. The use of imagery contributes to the overall meaning of the poem as it is used to help the reader envision the events that occur in the poem. By envisioning the lines, the reader is able to connect more deeply with the poem.

To use parallelism, all subpoints of a particular point should:
O A. follow lowercase Roman numerals.
B. be aligned to the right of the main point.
O C. be written in lowercase letters.
D. use the same grammatical pattern.

Answers

Answer:

D. use the same grammatical pattern.

Explanation:

Parallelism literally means using the same structure in (say) writing. Another way to put it, is that; when presenting a point, the sub-points must follow the same grammatical pattern or structure.

For example, the writer can choose to present the points using past tense. If by chance, there is a mix of tenses; then, the sub-points are not in parallel

This also include using phrases or sentences of identical and similar structure in each point and/or sub-points.

Option (a) to (c) refer to the layout of the sub-points. The only options that answers the question is (d).

Answer:

D. use the same grammatical pattern.

what is one purpose of symbolism used in this passage? A. To compare Granny to a whirl of dark smoke. B To make a connection between Granny and the reader C. To illustrate the destruction of Granny a dream D. To link two unlike concepts :a field and mountains Greer​

Answers

I have found this question online. It refers to the short story "The Jilting of Granny Weatherall". This is the passage we are supposed to analyze:

No, I swear he never harmed me but in that. He never harmed me but in that... and what if he did? There was the day, the day, but a whirl of dark smoke rose and covered it, crept up and over into the bright field where everything was planted so carefully in orderly rows.

Answer:

The purpose of symbolism used in this passage is:

C. To illustrate the destruction of Granny's dream.

Explanation:

In "The Jilting of Granny Weatherall," the main character is 80 years old. She is also dying, and this what the story focuses on. As she approaches death, Granny becomes delusional, her mind a messy mixture of memories and imaginary conversations.

In the passage we are analyzing here, Granny is going through one of these moments of confusion. She is remembering the day she was jilted - the day she was left by the man she loved. It was supposed to have been their wedding day, but he never showed. The narrator uses symbolism to show how her dream of marrying that man is destroyed: the black smoke that comes and covers a bright field. The life that was laid ahead of Granny, as she thought of her wedding, was happy and bright, like the field. But once the man she loved never showed, it was as if that happiness was suddenly taken from her. Her future was not clear anymore - it was dark, like the smoke.
