What does the word misspoke most likely mean in this sentence?

English

1. C, he lied. 2. A, breathtaking

1. C. The defendant lied.

The court does not care if he stuttered or made a grammatical error. These are not important when it comes to trial. However, a lie about his whereabouts is a problem. The lie could be that he said he forgot where he was but we don't know that until we know what he said when he misspoke.

2. breathtaking

The word that needs to be included is one that shows awe or amazement. Of the options, breathtaking is the only word that gives the reader a sense of wonder, awe and amazement.

3. B. It compares the number of New York commuters to an insect invasion

Locusts travel in large swarms. It's used to give the image of all the people that arrive in the city, especially the subways and trains, the "swarm" out of the station exits heading to work. They then like a swarm return to the stations and are dropped off in smaller spats at their residences.

Problem One

Background

Science majors can get in this argument. (Then I will answer the question more directly). Researchers at the University of Hawaii estimate that the number of grains of sand on our planet is about 7.5*10^18 grains of said. This number, large as it is can be equated to the number of molecules in 20 drops of water.

The number of stars in the Universe is many millions of times larger than the grains of sand on our planet. So while the writer is holding just one of these grains of sand, the enormity of the situation strikes her, and that leads her to a very "loving" and [in my opinion] humbling thought.

She compares all of this enormity with how little we actually live, how small our lifespan seems to be. It takes real humility to thank and accept thoughts like that.

<u><em>Answer</em></u>

So the key point is contained in the last sentence beginning with "Oh how ... and ending with the period on the next line.

Problem Two

An enjambment in poetry is a continuation of a thought beyond a point where an ending should be. The first 2 lines start out by stating that perhaps it would be best if youth and life were in a trance and should not awaken until a beam of eternity should bring the marrow to a conscious state.

Even though that dream would be of a hopeless sorrow, it would be better than what we live through, to the person who lives though this without the dream.

The enjambment is contained in the thought of the second last line beginning with 'Twere better than the cold reality of waking life ...

Problem Three

I'm not going to explain this too deeply. I think it has answers in what accompanied it. I would pick Two and Three as your best 2 answers. The deep friendship shown by the kind visitor is not that common in abolitionist literature. Most of it focuses on the cruelty of the society and the greed of the landowners and the rights of the colored to be free. This is quite different. It speaks of the kindness of one person willing to break the code.

How you can contribute to environment pollution? How can you change your conduct?
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Using single use plastics etc.

Explanation:

This is mostly a personal a question but some ways everyone contributes it by using single use plastics, not recycling or composting our waste, and excessive water use. All of these things contribute to land pollution and pollution in general. There are things you can do to try and keep yourself from contributing to pollution as much. You can use reusable silverware and other, usually, plastic objects. This is something like using a reusable straw, cup, packaging etc. You can take shorter showers and use less water when watering your lawn or other garden areas. You can also make sure to recycle and compost your waste. All of these things will greatly help with your contribution to pollution.
