The correct answer is option B: "<em>They take focus away from Icarus by including many other ordinary elements</em>".

The story told in the poem as well as in the painting is the fall of Icarus. In both works, to a certain extent, that is not the main focus. In the painting, for example, Icarus' legs can be seen as he drowns. This is a very small detail compared to the other elements present in the painting that overshadow the situation.

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.

I NEED AN ARGUMENTATIVE LETTER WITH EVIDENCE AGAINST SCHOOL DRESS CODE(not uniforms) WILL GIVE BRAINIEST
kozerog [31]

Answer:

this will not be as good but feel free to modify (i wrote this in like 10 minutes)

Explanation:

   Plenty of schools around the world have dress codes. Although dress codes will guide students to wear appropriate clothing, dress codes can also be a pain to students in the mornings.

    Many scholars wear inappropriate clothing to schools. Dress codes have been made to prevent this from happening. Although dress codes have their own perks of not having students wear inappropriate clothing, they can make students' mornings more uncomfortable. Waking up early in the mornings can be difficult for some, now imagine that with having to measure out clothing. Students who can't afford to clothe may need to just get dress coded. There are many solutions to avoid this problem in both ways.

      Uniforms have been going around schools. Although they may not satisfy every student's style, they do bring one solution to the struggles of mornings. Some teachers may find this a little bit easier to spot the trouble makers as well. They can easily spot the students not wearing the uniforms and dress code them, rather than trying to measure everything by eye.

      Dress codes can have their own perks of letting the students choose their own clothing with a bit of a guideline. Having to struggle in the morning to find clothes that fit the dress code standards can take up time and result in being late for school. Uniforms are one of many solutions to this problem. Although they do not give students much of a choice, they can solve the issue with both the students and teachers.
