"Vapor Trail Reflected in the Frog Pond", is a poem written by Galway Kinnell, a Pulitzer Prize winner who dedicated his life not just to writing, but also to actively defending the civil rights during the Vietnam War and opposing said war. One of the characteristics of most of this poet´s poems is the relfection on the inner workings of the human mind and spirit, more than the outward parts. In fact, he himself once said in an interview that he was the poet of the ugly, because he tended to make emphasis more on ugly aspects of life, nature and human beings than beauty or what was standard in poetry. One other characteristic of his poems is that he tended to mention and use topics of nature a lot and combined the human with the animal world to put forth his messages and meaning. In this particular poem, Kinnell explores the happenings in a natural setting and establishes a peaceful mood with the imagery of a pond and its inhabitants to later break that mood with the mention of the appearance of human actions, the SAC bomber´s vapor trail. This is why, for this particular excerpt, the correct response is D: It contrasts war and peace by describing a bomber against the backdrop of a peaceful setting.

can u guys give me some words or some discussion about the environmental problems like deforestation, global warming ,etc ?
joja [24]

Answer and Explanation:

The environmental problems caused by human exploitation of the environment have caused many problems that will harm life on earth as a whole, including human beings that will be strongly affected. Deforestation, pollution, the frequent use of fossil fuels, the release of polluting gases, among other situations, have caused an environmental change, in addition to weakening the earth's protective ozone layer, leaving the planet unprotected from the sun's rays. This, in addition to causing dermatological problems, has stimulated the existence of global warming and extreme climate changes that have strongly harmed the environment. This increases the extinction of animals and plants and impairs food production, making life on earth increasingly difficult.

1. Summarize the story of “The Fight" in no more than two sentences.
Katen [24]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

"The fight" was written by Ruskin Bond and it is a story about two boys named Ranji and Suraj. Ranji recently came to town and found a pool that was located in the forest. He got into the pool and had a nice time.

He visited the pool the following day and got in it but then noticed that a boy was staring at him by the poolside. They began to talk and while Ranji was friendly to Suraj, Suraj wasn't friendly and this got Ranji angry and he earned that he was going to beat Suraj.

This led to a fight, they eventually got tired and said that they'll continue the fight following day. They got to the pool the next day, and Suraj challenged Ranji to swim across the pool. This challenge was completed by Ranji and it actually shocked Suraj and he told Ranju that he'll like to learn diving from him. Ranji agreed and they eventually became friends. Ranji also told Suraj to help him become a Pahlawan. They also agreed that no one else would be allowed into the pool without their permission.

The fight teaches us that we should live in love and harmony as fighting is bad.

What is the best definition of an argumentative text?
Arlecino [84]

The best definition of an argumentative text is a text that supports a claim about a debatable topic using evidence as support.

<u>An argumentative text is a piece of writing in which the author presents a claim about a controversial topic and provides evidence to support it and, at the same time, to refute a counterclaim</u>. In other words, the author provides the reader with evidence such as statistics in order to present a counterargument as ineffective. Moreover, an argumentative essay is structured with an introduction, body paragraphs and a conclusion.
