They are protest poems because the poet used the poems to express beliefs a bout wars and about the government that led her to wars. They are full of ideological beliefs and are kind of persuasive so they are often considered to be protest poems.

Have you ever looked at someone and just felt like you were being pulled in? Like you both have a special connection, even though you've never really met? Known as love at first sight, this is the plot of the play "Romeo and Juliet". In the play a girl named Juliet and a boy named Romeo fall in love at first sight, however their parents forbade their love. They knew that they were meant to be, however, and defied their parents. Though the story doesen't end very well you can see the message of love at first sight.

Hope this helps ^w^

Imperative sentences usually end with a period but can occasionally end with an exclamation point. These sentences are sometimes referred to as directives because they provide direction to whomever is being addressed. 

Below, you'll find some examples of imperative sentences. Note that each line is issuing a command of some sort. 

Pass the salt.

Move out of my way!

Shut the front door.

Find my leather jacket.

The next hole has a windmill as shown below. Gerald decides that he is never going to be able to time his shot right, so he deci
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

86.7%.

Explanation:

Considering the diagram, the path of the tip of the blades is a circle.

Hence, determine the circumference of the circle.

C = 2πr = 2π * 3 ft = 6π ft.

Then determine how long the blade edges are all together.

6 in * 5 blades = 30 inches

Therefore, to determine the fraction of the circumference of 30 inches, convert circumference to inches

6π ft * (12 in ÷ 1 ft) = 72π in.

Hence, the probability of Gerald’s randomly timed shot hitting a blade of the windmill

=> 30 ÷ 72π

=> 30 ÷ [72 * (22/7)]

= 13.3%.

Finally, the probability of his shot getting past the blades is then 100 – 13.3 = 86.7%.

Which excerpt highlights the theme of the fleeting nature of life?
matrenka [14]

Answer: The excerpt highlights the theme of the fleeting nature of life is the one by Andrew Marvell, "To His Coy Mistress."

Explanation: This excerpt from Marvell's famous poem is specifically referring to the ephemeral nature of life, since the speaker is saying that he is constantly hearing the chariot of time - which is fast since it has wings - hurrying near, and eternity is ahead of us waiting for all of us. This poem is, in fact, a call to seize the day (<em>carpe diem</em>) and enjoy the pleasures that life has to offer. The speaker is telling to his coy mistress that if time was unlimited they could wait before courting and loving each other, but it is not, so he is urging her to let him love her.
