The word that functions as a coordinating conjunction in the sentence is option d. but. The coordinating conjunction "but" connects the two independent clauses which are "Our teacher waited so patiently for our report" and "we have not submitted it yet".

sammy [17]

Answer:

Quoted from Virgil's "The Aeneid" and poken by Anchises, the father of Aeneas.

Explanation:

Taken from Book VI of "The Aeneid" by Virgil, the quoted excerpt is spoken by Anchises to Aeneas. Meeting his dead father's soul to in the underworld, Aeneas was told by his father about the fate of Rome.

Through the speech or voice of the wise father, Virgil propounds his own personal ideals, propagating that the Romans should try to be more merciful in their conquests. Virgil uses Anchises as a means to voice his own beliefs and wants for Rome to do and stand for. Anchises uses rhetoric in saying that the Roman Empire's justification for what it had done to bring upon justice and law is the same as the Trojans' and Aeneas had made when they settled in Rome.

The first stanza of “On Being Brought from Africa,” introduces a paradox. Using evidence from the poem, describe the paradox.
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

“On Being Brought from Africa”

Paradox in the first stanza:

Phillis described her enslavement as a means of her salvation.  Thus, she was brought to America so that her soul could be saved.  Those who enslaved her, saved her.  This ordinarily sounds difficult to understand and contradictory.  How can somebody who kill you make you alive?  This is a paradox which can only be appreciated in the light of the Christian gospel.  Christ died and rose again from the dead.  Because He has risen, He is able to save those who die in sin.

This is the central message of Phillis' poem titled "On Being Brought from Africa."  In her own words:

 "Twas mercy brought me from my Pagan land,

  Taught my benighted soul to understand  

  That there's a God, that there's a Saviour too:

  Once I redemption neither sought nor knew. "

Evil was turned to good in her life.  She was not complaining against her enslavement or being removed from her African root, friends, and family.  She eulogized God who has the ultimate power to bring about good from evil.  Though, she was not praising evil, she knew and therefore, understood, and greatly benefited from the evil done to her, and even appreciated those who did her evil for doing her good.

This should be the attitude of all Africans, including African Americans, and this should be how they must view their past.  Slavery was a condemnable evil.  But, God has turned it to good.  Africans should stop lamenting their past enslavement.  They should henceforth make themselves free and live in freedom.  They should not retreat to their past.  The past is history.  It is not the future of Africa.  They should appreciate that, though, enslavery derived them of temporary freedom, it has brought lasting freedom.  Freedom is only achieved in Christ Jesus, in walking the talk, and not in blaming the past or past actors.  Olaudah Equiano bought his freedom within three years.  For more than 50 years now, Africans have been in charge of their governments and their borders, but what have they achieved with the leadership?  They are still leading the people back to slavery in so many absurd ways.

Explanation:

Phillis Wheatley wrote "On Being Brought from Africa" in 1773.  She is recognized as the first African American woman to publish a book in English.

Select the correct text in the passage.
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

North Richmond Street, <u>being blind</u>, was a quiet street except at the hour when the Christian Brothers' School set the boys free.

Explanation:

A participial phrase is a group of words that consists of a participle, its modifiers, and any objects that complete that thought.

Participles are words derived from verbs that can function as adjectives or parts of verb phrases. There are two types of participles:

  • Past participles - they usually end in -ed (for regular verbs), and less often in -en, -t, -d, and -n (irregular verbs). Example:<em> bake - baked</em>.
  • Present participles - they end in -ing. Example: bake - baking.

In the first sentence of the given excerpt, we have one participial phrase: <em>being blind</em>. It consists of the present participle <em>being</em> and a modifier <em>blind</em>.
