The summary is an example of a "paraphrase".

A paraphrase is a phrase used to express the meaning of something written with the use of different words. This is done in order for the writer to achieve more clarity while trying to express his message.

The phrases "get sunbeams out of cucumbers" and "trying to turn ice into gunpowder" are paraphrases used in order to give the message to the reader that the characters are trying to get the most out of the mentioned resources which are at their disposal.

Describe your dad. What is your relationship like with him? As we reflect on how we come to have different views, how do you thi
Orlov [11]

Explanation:

There’s nothing like family. The people we’re related to by blood and marriage are expected to be our closest allies, our greatest sources of love and support. Too often, however, our interactions with family are filled with misunderstanding and resentment, bickering and badgering. Those we should know and be known by best, end up feeling like adversaries or strangers.

Family is where our first and strongest emotional memories are made, and that’s where they keep appearing. And this is why emotional intelligence (EQ) succeeds where other efforts at family harmony fail. Active awareness and empathy—the ability to be aware, accepting, and permanently attuned to ourselves and others—tells us how to respond to one another’s needs.

EQ is incredibly powerful in the family because it puts you in control of your relationships with parents and children, siblings, in-laws and extended family. When you know how you feel, you can’t be manipulated by other’s emotions; nor can you blame family conflict on everyone else. Most of the techniques for improving family relationships are therefore centered on communicating your feelings to those you care about, as close relationships are centered around feeling.

As a "man speaking to men," Wordsworth believed the poet should write in a language easily understood by common
MaRussiya [10]

Answer: True.

Explanation:

William Wordsworth (1770 – 1850) was an English Romantic poet. Samuel Taylor Coleridge and him published <em>Lyrical Ballads</em> in 1798, and thus began the Romantic Age in English literature.

In<em> "Preface" </em>to the <em>Lyrical Ballads</em>, Wordsworth discusses his view on poetry. He claims that pleasure in poetry occurs when language used is close to real speech. Good poetry, he argues, includes situations from real life that all people experience. Poetry should unite people regardless of their differences. Wordsworth also writes that a poet is ''a man speaking to men'', who possesses great knowledge about human nature.
