Fro and Through

Slant rhyme is when the words do not have perfect rhyme. They could have a similar sound, but it's not identical. Sometimes a reader must alter the pronunciation of the words slightly to create the similar sound. In the poem, fro has a long /o/ sound and through has the sound /oo/. These are not identical, but can be similar if pronounced a certain way.

I would say FRO and THROUGH, because through is said differently then when you're rhyming with FRO, if I could say it outlaid it would make more sense :P but I hope this helps!

Read the sentence. He shoots a basketball with either hand. Which answer best identifies the adverb phrase and the word it modif
ioda

Answer:

The correct answer is either hand; modifies basketball.

Explanation:

Let's start by clarifying that the adverb is one that modifies a verb, a noun, an adjective or more words.

In this case we find the adverb phrase "either hand". This adverbial phrase is modifying the noun "basketball", and is the one that gives us more information about the way the ball is going to be thrown.

What was the great awakening and why did it occur?
Fittoniya [83]

First Great Awakening

In the 1700's, a European philosophical movement, called the Enlightenment, swept America. Also called the Age of Reason, this era laid the foundation for a scientific, rather than religious, worldview. Freedom of conscience was at the heart of this struggle against old regimes and old ways of thinking, and it changed the way people viewed authority. In the same way, a religious revival, called the Great Awakening, changed the way people thought about their relationship with the divine, with themselves and with other people. The Enlightenment engaged the mind, but the Great Awakening engaged the heart.

The First Great Awakening affected British North America in the 1730s and 40's. True to the values of the Enlightenment, the Awakening emphasized human decision in matters of religion and morality. It respected each individual's feelings and emotions. In stark contrast to Puritanism, which emphasized outward actions as proof of salvation, the Great Awakening focused on inward changes in the Christian's heart.
