The line "'Twas mercy brought me from my Pagan land," in the poem "On being brought from Africa to America" ​​and the line "Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand" in the poem "The new colossus" underscores the theme about America being a land of foreigners.

<h3>Why is this theme highlighted?</h3>
  • Because it reinforces that many people do not live in their homelands but in America.
  • To reinforce how much foreigners do not intend to return to their homelands.

Although both poems underscore how America is home to many foreigners, the context in which this is addressed in each poem is different.

In "On being brought from Africa to America" ​​the author is an African woman enslaved and brought to America by force. This shows that the woman is not a foreigner of her own volition, but the system into which she has been inserted prevents her from not seeing America as her home.

In "The new colossus" the author is a refugee woman, who saw America as an option to escape her country's problems and found in the country, of her own free will, a home where she feels good.

Makes the reader wonder what "doesn't love a wall."

Answer: Option 1.

<u>Explanation:</u>

This line has been taken from the poem "Mending wall". In the line The fact that the speaker does not specify what, precisely, is the "Something" that "sends the frozen-ground-swell" under the fence could mean that the word something refers to nature, as another educator suggested, or even God.  The word "sends" in line two implies that the sender has a will, a conscious purpose, so it seems logical to consider the possibility we should attribute such a sending to a higher being.

Further, in the lines which follow the first two, this "Something" also "spills" the big rocks from the top of the fence out into the sun and "makes gaps" in the fence where two grown men can walk through, side by side (lines 3, 4).  These verbs are also active, like "sends," and imply reason and purpose to the one who performs the actions.  Therefore, it is plausible that the "Something" which sends "the frozen-ground-swell"—freezing the water in the ground so that the ground literally swells and bursts the fence with the movement—"spills boulders," and "makes gaps" refers to God.

The writer wants to introduce the topic of electronegativity with a concrete, casually observable example from the natural world
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

B. How do water striders skim across the surfaces of ponds and lakes? Their hydrophobic legs are uniquely suited to this process, but the insects

Explanation:

Below are the options given:

<em>A. NO CHANGE</em>

<em>B. How do water striders skim across the surfaces of ponds and lakes? Their hydrophobic legs are uniquely suited to this process, but the insects</em>

<em>C. How do our bodies break down the food we consume every day? While digestion would be impossible without enzymes and other proteins, these molecules</em>

<em>D. How does our DNA maintain a double helical structure? While the shape of this nucleic acid is the result of many complex properties, its structures</em>

Option B is correct because it gives a concrete, casually observable example from the natural world and thereby accomplishes the goal. It explains the connection between surface tension and electronegativity.

Option B gives an example from the natural world - the water strider.

The water striders are a good example of insects that use the high surface tension of water and long, hydrophobic legs. This enables them to walk on water. Their legs are coated with a hydrophobic substance. The hydrophobic substance makes the legs to repel water molecules i.e it makes water unable to stick to their legs. This makes them to easily skim on water surfaces.
