The protests at Standing Rock aimed to prevent the destruction of historic and sacred sites for North American indigenous peoples. These protests triggered a series of adjacent movements that sought protection not only for indigenous rights, but addressed themes such as religion, historical protection of a country, suppression of cultures, imperialism, among others.
These movements show that when a right is suppressed, a series of social elements are hurt and questioned.
I would have to say the answer is c. Just a guess though. I personally would be more formal when writing a cover letter and it does need to be proofread. <span />
Answer:
The first example of figurative language is seen in the first line. This line is an example of a simile because it is comparing being frozen and the clouds using the word "as". This line conveys meaning by directly comparing two things which makes it easier to understand its meaning. The line, "I leap beyond the winds" is a hyperbole because it is an exaggeration. This makes it more dramatic and have a stronger meaning. Another simile is found in the line, "for my throat is keen as a sword". Once again it is comparing two things using the word "as" and in the case it is the narrators throat and a sword.
Chaucer’s original plan for The Canterbury Tales was for each character to tell four tales, two on the way to Canterbury and two on the way back. But, instead of 120 tales, the text ends after twenty-four tales, and the party is still on its way to Canterbury. Chaucer either planned to revise the structure to cap the work at twenty-four tales, or else left it incomplete when he died on October 25, 1400. Other writers and printers soon recognized The Canterbury Tales as a masterful and highly original work. Though Chaucer had been influenced by the great French and Italian writers of his age, works like Boccaccio’s Decameron were not accessible to most English readers, so the format of The Canterbury Tales, and the intense realism of its characters, were virtually unknown to readers in the fourteenth century before Chaucer. William Caxton, England’s first printer, published The Canterbury Tales in the 1470s, and it continued to enjoy a rich printing history that never truly faded. By the English Renaissance, poetry critic George Puttenham had identified Chaucer as the father of the English literary canon. Chaucer’s project to create a literature and poetic language for all classes of society succeeded, and today Chaucer still stands as one of the great shapers of literary narrative and character.
