Answer:
Jay turned off the current before taking apart the
outlet.
The current from the overhead wire caused sparks
to fly.
Explanation:
When words are spelled or pronounced in the same way but have different meanings, they are called homonyms.
One of homonyms is the word "current" which can mean:
- something happening at the present time
- a movement of body of water in a certain direction
- the flow of electrical energy
In the first answer, the outlet is a device whose purpose is to connect electrical devices to an electrical supply (plugging it in the socket). So, it's electrical current.
In the second answer, it denotes the moving of the water
In the third answer, it means that Todd's present roommate in neat.
In the fourth answer, since it comes from a wire and causes a spark, it denotes electrical current.
Finally, since Vanya is in the river, it denotes a flow of the water.

Answer:
Christmas is a kind, forgiving, charitable and pleasant time of the year.
Explanation:
In Stave one of the "The Christmas Carol", readers can explore the theme of the story through words like "a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time" and "few of us are
endeavouring to raise a fund to buy the Poor some meat and drink, and means of
warmth".
One of the themes of the Stave one is that Christmas is a kind, forgiving, charitable and pleasant time of the year. This can seen in the conversations between Scrooge and his nephew. Scrooge felt that Christmas was a "humbag" while his nephew felt that it was the best time to the year.
Also, the conversations that Scrooge has with the two portly gentlemen highlights how Scrooge thought and felt about charity and giving.
Answer: Come, my friends, 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite The sounding furrows;
for my purpose To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths Of all the western stars, until I die.
One equal temper of heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
Explanation:
In the first line the author exhorts his friends to search a new world.
Ulysses exhorts his sailors to set sail; the phrase "smite / the sounding furrows" compares the act of rowing to beating or striking something; beating something that makes a sound is here a metaphor for rowing. ... "Beyond the sunset" is a metaphor.
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield. Ulysses yet again tells us that even though he and his sailors are not young and don't have a lot of stamina, there's enough left to go for a while. "Abides" is a word that means "remains."
