The Red and Arkansas rivers run generally west to east.
Sonbull [250]3 years ago
6 0

The sentenece that contains correct capitalization is:

The Red and Arkansas rivers run generally west to east.

In this sentence, there are two rules that we should pay attention to:

  1. Names of bodies of water<u> must be capitalized</u> whenever they are a proper noun, such as the Dead Sea, Lake Erie or the Red River. Here, as there are two names together, <em>rivers </em>is not part of their names but the noun that connects both.
  2. The directions north, east, south and west should <u>not be given capital letters,</u> unless they are part of a proper name like West Sussex.

In at least 150 words, identify a theme in Robert Lowell’s "For the Union Dead," and explain how the author’s use of symbolism h
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Explanation:

The poem opens with the poet watching the deserted South Boston Aquarium, which he had visited as a child. The ruined building is symbolic both of his lost childhood and of the decay of Boston, undergoing massive urban renewal, which upsets such milestones as the Statehouse and the sculpture of Colonel Shaw.

The statue causes the poet to think of Shaw, an abolitionist’s son and leader of the first black regiment in the Civil War. Shaw died in the war, and his statue is a monument to the heroic ideals of New England life, which are jeopardized in the present just as the statue itself is shaken by urban renewal.

Images of black children entering segregated schools reveal how the ideals for which Shaw and his men died were neglected after the Civil War. The poem’s final stanzas return to the aquarium. The poet pictures Shaw riding on a fish’s air bubble, breaking free to the surface, but in fact, the aquarium is abandoned and the only fish are fin-tailed cars.

This poem is a brilliant example of Lowell’s ability to link private turmoil to public disturbances. The loss of childhood in the early section of the poem expands to the loss of America’s early ideals, and both are brought together in the last lines to give the poem a public and private intensity.

The poem is organized into unrhymed quatrains of uneven length, allowing a measure of flexibility within a formal structure.

Why does Zitkala present such a detailed description of her haircut?
saw5 [17]

Answer:

  • To support her argument that Native Americans were mistreated

Explanation:

The author had the sentiment of mortification since it was instructed in her home that in the event that someone trims and shingles the hair, it is the indication of cowardliness.  

It was done to get the foe. In her family and relatives, short hairs were of the grievers and shingled hairs were of quitters and consequently, she would not like to trim her hair.
