Answer:
In Neruda's poem, light is compared to:
white sand being poured from above.
Explanation:
<em>Under the trees light</em>
<em>has dropped from the top of the sky,</em>
<em>light</em>
<em>like a green</em>
<em>latticework of branches,</em>
<em>shining</em>
<em>on every leaf,</em>
<em>drifting down like clean</em>
<em>white sand.</em>
In "Ode to Enchanted Light," by Chilean poet Pablo Neruda, light is described as something dropping from the sky. The word choice by the poet is quite interesting, since the speaker first speaks of dropping but then, immediately afterward, compares light to white sand that is drifting. There is something heavy and light at the same time in this description. The verb "drop" describes a more abrupt action, while "drift" conveys a softer sensation. As a matter of fact, the poem revolves around duality - good and bad, for instance - as well as change.
Answer:
Unitary and Confederation
Explanation:
A Unitary system is defined as: "A system of political organization with a central supreme government which holds the authority over and makes the decisions for subordinate local governments"
- The central government holds authority over the local governments.
- It does not share power with the local governments and makes decisions for them.
A Confederation system is defined as: "A group of nations or states, or a government encompassing several states or political divisions, in which the component states retain considerable independence"
- This system focuses more on local or state governments.
- It is an independent system that, typically, doesn't share power with central government, at all.

Answer: Parallax
Explanation: Parallax is usually an error which should be avoided when taking measurements. It is the observed difference in the apparent position of an object when viewed from different positions. Motion parallax is the change in the position of an object due to the viewer's movement. In motion parallax, the object distance to the observer's eye seems to affect the relative motion of the object. That is objects close by or near the observer's eye such as mile markers seems to rush or whiz past relative to the observer's direction while distant objects such as hills and mountain tops moves relatively slowly in the opposite direction.
