Caught by a Tree
from Chatterbox 1906
A natural history student was one afternoon, during a prolonged drought, hunting for ferns in a dense wood. Towards evening, it grew suddenly dark, and a few drops of rain gave warning that a storm was coming. At that moment, the student's eye fell upon a big, hollow tree-trunk on the ground.
Striking a match, the man peered within, and saw, as he thought, a convenient place of shelter. With feet foremost and arms pressed closely to his side, he wormed himself into the log.
Presently the rain came down in torrents, and the student congratulated himself on having found so snug a shelter.
Fatigued with his long tramp, he fell asleep. How long he slept he did not know, but by-and-by he was awakened by a sharp pain in his head, and a feeling of cramp in his whole body. The rain was still falling, the darkness was intense. The bodily discomfort was, of course, due to the man's cramped position; the pain in his head was caused by a continual drip of water from above on to his forehead.
He drew his head back out of the way of the drops, and, in spite of his uncomfortable position, actually fell asleep again! But the next time he awoke, the pain in his head was intolerable. It seemed impossible to get out of reach of those maddening drops, and "wherever they fell," says the student, "they seemed like a sharp iron boring into the skull."
But the worst was yet to come. When the poor fellow tried to crawl out of the log, he was unable to do so! The opening by which he had so foolishly entered had been only just large enough to admit his body, and the wood, shrunken by the long drought, had in the rain swelled to such an extent that he was now caught, as he says, "like a rat in a trap."
Throughout the night the wretched victim shrieked, struggled, pushed, kicked, and wriggled in vain. He could not raise his hands to tear at the wood.
Happily, he was discovered the next morning through the good services of a rescue dog, which led a search-party to the spot.

Discuss the contributions of Romantic-Era writers/poets such as Thoreau and Emerson.
Answer:
Emerson was one of the founders of Transcendentalism in America. An offshoot of the Romantic movement, Transcendentalism and its writers focused on creating a uniquely American voice in literature. Part of a movement called the New England Renaissance or the American Renaissance, Transcendentalism established the idea that American literature should have its own concerns and voice and should not simply try to emulate European literature. Instead, Emerson's writings, such as "Self-Reliance," stressed the importance of developing one's own talents and emphasized the importance of cultivating what is great in oneself. By extension, his writings emphasized the importance of developing an American literature that was not concerned with European models. Over time, as Emerson believed in the freedom of each person, he became an advocate of abolition, and he inspired others to fight against slavery.
example of humor in the modest proposal
Explanation:
Take, for instance, the description of "an American" friend who has provided the speaker with information about preparing humans for consumption. This gives us a general idea, though within a comical context, of the reputation "Americans" still had in the early eighteenth century for being uncivilized, veritable "savages." But it's hyperbolic. (Hopefully Swift knew that Americans were not really like this, even at that time.)

One or more hyphens are used correctly in all of these sentences except which one?
Answer:
C. Helen told Fred that she would love him ever-more.
Explanation:
The hyphen is a punctuation mark that is used to separate syllables of a single word and also join words that are to be taken as "one meaning or idea". When it is used in such a way, then the word is called or referred to as "a hyphenated" word.
Among the given options, the sentence that requires no use of the hyphen is the third sentence. Here, "ever-more" doesn't need to be joined nor are they a single word.

Which statement best describes king Lepold's ideas for the resources in the Congo?
Answer:
He saw the superiority of the African continent and a chance for Belgium to dominate world trade.
Explanation:
The Congo became part of Belgium's attempt to be a dominant country in Europe, and luckily, in the world. Acquired the Congo in 1884, Leopold had amassed a huge personal fortune from the exploitation of Congo's natural resources - at first thanks to the export of ivory, but it did not yield as much as expected. As global demand for rubber exploded, attention turned to the labor-intensive gathering of rubber from plant sap. This process of exploration was followed by violent practices with the natives, with extensive use of beatings, killings, and mutilations when production quotas were not

True or False? Database citation markers are 100% accurate, so you don't need to know MLA style rules.
Answer:
False
Explanation:

Those citation markers may contain errors in capitalization, punctuation, spelling, etc. The order of arrangement may be correct but it doesn't guarantee its accuracy. It's advisable to check the rules of the MLA and APA styles for accuracy. Therefore, check every citation generated to ensure its accuracy.
