B) It gives the stanza a positive, playful tone.
Answer:
THE DAY I MADE MY FIRST PUBLIC SPEECH
I still remember vividly the day i stood in front of over 1000 students from different schools, teachers, parents to give a speech on behalf of our science club. terrified is an understatement. i was literary shaking. at first i had refused because i had phobia for crowds. but encouragement from friends and family kept me going and regardless i made up my mind to face my fears and deliver the speech. i took in all the advise i had been given, practiced in the mirror and there i was ready to take the challenge heads on. i was supposed to be third to give my speech, and when the second speaker was called, i knew i was finished. i excused myself to go for a short call haha. it was not easy but i was going to do it anyway. when my turn reached, i stood up, opened my paper and there i was, talking and giving my speech. when i finished for a moment i couldn't believe i was the one who had just given a speech. that experience changed my personality for the better. i got to learn that fear is just an imagination of something which does not even exist. since then my public speaking skills have gone a notch higher. i am good at it and i do not hesitate whenever an opportunity presents itself.
I hope it helps!!!!!!!!!
This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Based on the 1925 serum run to Nome
Describe what made the terrain around Nome perilous? How did this contribute to the heroism of the dog teams?
Answer:
Located in the Alaskan tundra, the route to Nome crossed a 5000-foot mountain peak and the unstable ice of Norton Sound, ill-famed for breaking under pressure. Furthermore, the sea was frozen for seven months during the winter, meaning that dog sleds were the only way of transportation at the time. In addition to that, the “Great Race of Mercy” happened in the middle of a great storm.
Explanation:
All of these elements made the five days journey to get the serum required to save Nome (which should have taken a month) that much more heroic.
Answer: A. Both poems suggest a form of life after death that should not be feared.
Explanation:
In the poem<em> 'Song of myself'</em> , from Whitman's collection <em>Leaves of Grass</em>, Whitman describes death as a new beginning, a return to life. In the poem, he states that “…to die is different from what any one supposed, and / luckier.” He suggests that people should not be afraid of death.
In<em> 'Because I Could Not Stop for Death'</em>, Emily Dickinson presents death as a spiritual rebirth. She describes her journey from life to afterlife, accompanied by Death. Death is personified in this poem and is not intimidating at all. He is a very generous guide and makes her journey a rather pleasing experience.
Both the authors support the same idea - that death should not be feared, as it leads to nothing but a life after death.
