Why did the author chose the title “Words On Fire” for the book? Does it have any significance or special meaning to the book?

History
1 answer:
9966 [12]2 years ago
3 0

The author chose the title “Words On Fire” for the book to portray the relevance and the imports of the book. However, the author Jennifer A. Nielsen does not showcase much fire as the title depicts to her words in this uncommon story with a lot to teach about the importance of books and literature. The plot is steady, but neither it nor main character Audra have much spark or fire to them because Nielsen does not take advantage of the important moments to really show Audra's changing understanding and appreciation of books.

<h3>What is the synopsis of Words On Fire?</h3>

Words On Fire tells the story of a 12-year-old Audra, living peacefully on her parents' farm in Lithuania in the 1800s. She knows that Russian Cossack soldiers have lorded themselves over Lithuania, but she figures everything will be fine if she minds her own business. Till the time when a squad of Cossacks come to the farm, arrest her parents, and burn their house down. As her mother is urging Audra to flee, she gives her a package with instructions to deliver it to a village 20 kilometers away. Audra barely manages to escape by fleeing into the woods. Most surprising of all, the girl who can't even read or write learns why books are worth facing terrible danger and enduring hardship and sacrifice.

Therefore, the correct answer is as given above

Describe Rome's expansion from a small town to an empire.
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The Romans emerged as a small and largely insignificant people in the Italian peninsula around 753 BCE. Romans were also known as Latins, for the language they spoke and the plain where they lived. The city was founded and built on the Tiber River. Rome was ruled as a kingdom during this earlier period, and the limits of its kingdom were confined to a small area of the city of Rome and the surrounding lands. Not much is documented about Rome at this time.

According to Roman tradition, in the year 509 BCE, Rome rebelled against its king and transformed itself into a republic. A republic is a form of government with representatives and not a king. During this period, Rome became a power in the region. Over the next few centuries, the Romans waged a number of wars against other Italian groups on the peninsula, including some Greek city-states. By winning territory from the legendary Greeks, Rome gained respect and power.By the end of the Punic Wars, Rome found itself in control of a vast territory in places around the Mediterranean. Rome’s leaders began to claim more power for themselves around 50 BCE, and by 27 BCE the Republic fell, and an empire under control of the leader was established. The empire was also powerful, but faced more challenges. A combination of corrupt leaders, outside attacks, and just too big an empire to control led to the decline of Rome.

Two major phases of photosynthesis are light dependent reaction and light independent reaction. In light dependent reaction phase, light is needed for producing two molecules such as ATP and NADPH in the chloroplast where chlorophyll is present.
