Problem One

Background

Science majors can get in this argument. (Then I will answer the question more directly). Researchers at the University of Hawaii estimate that the number of grains of sand on our planet is about 7.5*10^18 grains of said. This number, large as it is can be equated to the number of molecules in 20 drops of water.

The number of stars in the Universe is many millions of times larger than the grains of sand on our planet. So while the writer is holding just one of these grains of sand, the enormity of the situation strikes her, and that leads her to a very "loving" and [in my opinion] humbling thought.

She compares all of this enormity with how little we actually live, how small our lifespan seems to be. It takes real humility to thank and accept thoughts like that.

<u><em>Answer</em></u>

So the key point is contained in the last sentence beginning with "Oh how ... and ending with the period on the next line.

Problem Two

An enjambment in poetry is a continuation of a thought beyond a point where an ending should be. The first 2 lines start out by stating that perhaps it would be best if youth and life were in a trance and should not awaken until a beam of eternity should bring the marrow to a conscious state.

Even though that dream would be of a hopeless sorrow, it would be better than what we live through, to the person who lives though this without the dream.

The enjambment is contained in the thought of the second last line beginning with 'Twere better than the cold reality of waking life ...

Problem Three

I'm not going to explain this too deeply. I think it has answers in what accompanied it. I would pick Two and Three as your best 2 answers. The deep friendship shown by the kind visitor is not that common in abolitionist literature. Most of it focuses on the cruelty of the society and the greed of the landowners and the rights of the colored to be free. This is quite different. It speaks of the kindness of one person willing to break the code.

photoshop1234 [79]

The correct answer is D. “You’re the best there is! Shouldn’t your breakfast cereal also be the best? Morning Bran!”

Explanation:

In advertising, the flattery technique is a persuasion technique that relies on praising or using compliments in order to motivate people to buy or pay for a specific service. In this way, the flattery technique makes the consumer feels gratified and better with himself and therefore happy to buy or pay for something. Even though this technique is considered as insincere it is still widely used in advertising and marketing as it is also quite useful and effective. Considering the is the slogan that uses this technique is “You’re the best there is! Shouldn’t your breakfast cereal also be the best? Morning Bran!” because the use of language in “You’re the best there is! " is a compliment for the consumer and this linked to "Shouldn’t your breakfast cereal also be the best?" motivates the consumer to buy the product suggested (Morning Bran), just because the consumer was somehow praised or flatter.

Read the excerpt from Night below and answer the question.
Morgarella [4.7K]

Explanation:

Read the excerpt from Night below and answer the question.

“Hey, kid, how old are you?”

The man interrogating me was an inmate. I could not see his face, but his voice was weary and warm.

“Fifteen.”

“No. You’re eighteen.”

“But I’m not,” I said. “I’m fifteen.”

“Fool. Listen to what I say.”

Then he asked my father, who answered:

“I’m fifty.”

“No.” The man now sounded angry. “Not fifty. You’re forty. Do you hear? Eighteen and forty.”

Why does the prisoner insist that Wiesel and his father lie about their ages?

He wants to win the favor of the Nazi guards.

He is probably deranged because of the conditions in the concentration camp.

He is trying to save their lives.

He considers them a threat and is trying to get rid of them.
