Answer:

Quotes from the Text: What text did you mark? Annotations: What notes did you write about the meaning, voice, or mood?

the lawns looked well behaved and boring. The grass grew obediently   The narrator thinks her new home is dull. Using the word boring and expressing a negative attitude about obedience makes her seem young, maybe a teenager.

each green blade standing upright like a tiny soldier.  The narrator feels that there is too much order, maybe showing that she is restricted too.

with their bright yellow petals and dark brown faces   The word missed makes me think that the narrator wants to go back to her old home. The bright colors of her friends and her memories of them are different from the dull situation she is experiencing now.Explanation:

pochemuha
<span>The answer comes easy in the first couple of lines that are in the excerpt…

“The land of Cyclops first, a savage kind,
Nor tamed by manners, nor by laws confined:
Untaught to plant, to turn the glebe, and sow, [...]”

The words ‘savage,’ ‘nor tamed by manners,’ and ‘nor by laws confined’ all clearly prove that he does not follow rules or laws, and he is not civilized.

This proves that the correct answer is c )  The Cyclops does not follow typical rules of the civilized human world.</span><span>

Body of a sample e-mail: The public library is essential to our community. Students need a safe and quiet place to complete thei
polet [3.4K]
  • <em>What is the viewpoint?</em>

The person who wrote this email believes that the local library should be a priority: "the public library is essential to our community." This person cares about the town's students' ability to study in an appropriate environment: "students need a safe and quiet place to complete their homework." They would like the library to remain available as it currently is.

  • <em>What is the problem?</em>

The problem is the city council's recent decision to reduce the opening hours for the library: "city council plans to cut the library’s hours." We are told that this measure comes as a response to the charges that are involved in keeping the library open (paying the employees, for the most part): "the budget is an issue."

  • <em>What is an effect of the problem?</em>

This is an issue because as a consequence, the students would not get to study in as good conditions as they do now: "this will limit students’ time to study and conduct research after school." As a result, the community can try to influence the vote of the city council's members on the issue: "I am writing to urge you to vote against these cuts."

  • <em>What is the proposed solution?</em>

The solution suggested to the city official is to ask college students to volonteer as library employees, in order to keep the library open without the city council's worrying about paying the staff: "perhaps volunteers from the local community college can help staff the library."
