This is personification and a metaphor (either one or the other).
personification- it’s giving the clouds a feeling or trait (giving racist prejudice to clouds)
metaphor- not really meaning what it’s saying there are no “dark clouds” but it means it’s a dark time for people of what is happening

Metaphor because the clouds and fog are being compared to a completely different thing: racial prejudice and misunderstanding.

YEAR 9 ENGLISH PLEASE HELP! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST FOR THE BEST ANSWER
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Laura Bates offered herself to teach Shakespeare in the maximum security section of a prison in the state of Indiana. What resulted was that the inmates liked the English writer.

Bates decided to share its experience in her book “Shakespeare Saved My Life: Ten Years of Solitary with the Bard. Interviewed by Michael Martin of NRP news, Bates shares the central idea of teaching Shakespeare in a maximum security prison. Bates comments that for many inmates was easy to make sense of some passages of Shakespeare’s works because they had lived something similar or could relate to. Something that scholars found complicated to relate with.

Bates sets the example of “Macbeth”, in which the prisoners related to the story for the inner struggle of the main character and their personal situations. When prisoners got into Macbeth character, that helped them to got inside their own characters.

1. Which statement would be suitable as a thesis for a persuasive essay?
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

A. The United States should not interfere with Russian relations in Chechnya.

B. The state should increase driver's registration fees to pay for the new highway overpass.

B. The success of chimps in mastering sign language, however, indicates that they have indeed learned a simple language.

Explanation:

For the first question, A is thesis for writing a persuasive essay. A persuasive essay must convince the audience to take some sort of action. Option A is the best choice because it is trying to convince the audience that interfering in Russian relations in Chechnya would not be a good idea.

The second question has a similar requirement. The thesis statement needs to be something that is actionable. Increasing the driver's registration fees is the only action that is suggested in any of the sentences.

The last answer asks about the thesis of the passage. A thesis cannot be cited text so the first option is incorrect. Option C is not specific and doesn't actually say the main idea. This is also true of option D, it only focuses on one group of scientists rather than the bigger picture.

Write a report on Make in India.​
Semmy [17]
Make in India is an initiative by the Government of India to encourage companies to manufacture in India and incentivize dedicated investments into manufacturing.The policy approach was to create a conducive environment for investments, develop a modern and efficient infrastructure, and open up new sectors for foreign capital. The initiative targeted 25 economic sectors for job creation and skill enhancement,and aimed "to transform India into a global design and manufacturing hub.


Country : India
Prime Minister : Narendra Modi
Key people : Ministry of Commerce and Industry (India)
Launched : 25 September 2014
Status : Active

"Make in India" had three stated objectives:

1 ) to increase the manufacturing sector's growth rate to 12-14% per annum;
2 ) to create 100 million additional manufacturing jobs in the economy by 2022;
3 ) to ensure that the manufacturing sector's contribution to GDP is increased to 25% by 2022 (later revised to 2025).


After the launch, India gave investment commitments worth ₹16.40 lakh crore (US$230 billion) and investment inquiries worth of ₹1.5 lakh crore (US$21 billion) between September 2014 to February 2016.As a result, India emerged as the top destination globally in 2015 for foreign direct investment (FDI), surpassing the United States and China, with US$60.1 billion FDI.As per the current policy, 100% Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is permitted in all 100 sectors, except for Space industry (74%), defence industry (49%) and Media of India (26%).Japan and India had also announced a US$12 billion 'Japan-India Make-in-India Special Finance Facility" fund to push investment.

In line with the Make in India, individual states too launched their own local initiatives, such as 'Make in Odisha,' 'Tamil Nadu Global Investors Meet,' 'Vibrant Gujarat,' 'Happening Haryana' and 'Magnetic Maharashtra.’India received US$60 billion FDI in FY 2016–17.


The World Bank's 2019 Ease of Doing Business report acknowledges India's jump of 23 positions against its rank of 100 in 2017 to be placed now at 63rd rank among 190 countries.By the end of 2017, India had risen 42 places on Ease of doing business index, 32 places World Economic Forum's Global Competitiveness Index, and 19 notches in the Logistics Performance Index,thanks to recent governmental initiatives, which include converges, synergies and enables other important Government of India schemes, such as Bharatmala, Sagarmala, Dedicated Freight Corridors, Industrial corridors, UDAN-RCS, Bharat Broadband Network, Digital India.

Make in India has not yet achieved its goals. The growth rate of manufacturing averaged 6.9% per annum between 2014-15 and 2019-20.The share of manufacturing dropped from 16.3% of GDP in 2014-15 to 15.1% in 2019-20.
