I've been meaning to <em>ask you</em>

If that's not too <em>drastical</em>

wonder if it's <em>okay</em>

To pick you up by<em> eight</em>


The rhyme scheme of this poem is AABB. The rhyme in this poem is achieved by the pronounciation and stress put into "ask you"; stressing ASK and then stressing the first syllabe of "drastical" and this way the rhyme on the first two lines is completed. Then for the last two lines the rhyme is achieved and the whole stanza resolved by stressing "okAY" and then "Eight".

Meter:

The stanza's meter is trochaic tetrameter (4 trochees, 8 syllables)

<em>I</em><em>'ve</em> <em>been </em>| <em>meaning</em><em> </em>| <em>to</em> | ask you

if that's | not | too | drastical

wonder | if | it's | okay

To pick | you up | by | eight


This rhyme scheme and meter are most used by rap artist for it's impact and flexibility to create a rhyme. The stressed words are the ones that address the receiver of the message that is a proposition for a meeting or a date. This poem is fitting for the rap music genre, for it's pronounciation  of key words (with a suburban accent) completes the rhyme in the second and third lines ("oKAY" and "DRAStical").

Levart [38]

Answer:

“Language and communication are the heart of the human experience.” I believe it is imperative that the teaching of a foreign language should be a requirement in our child’s curriculum and implemented starting in primary schools. The United States has a responsibility to provide all students with the skill set to expand and sustain proficiency in English and facilitate the teaching another language. Children who enroll in English-speaking schools from non-English-speaking backgrounds should also be given the opportunity to be further educated in their native language. I will discuss why it is vital to our children to have access to foreign language studies and why it should be integrated throughout their PK-12 academic experience.

We grant our children with the tools to succeed in the 21st Century with the edification of supplementary languages and the insight of other cultures. This is essential for “American students as they prepare to live and work in a global society.”(According to the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages) learning a second language will facilitate communication with those from other cultures. It will allow those to look beyond their customary borders and develop insight into their own language and culture. It will enable those to act with a greater awareness of one self, of other cultures, and their own relationship to those cultures. This will expand their knowledge, and will enable those to participate more fully in the global community and marketplace. Regardless of the career students choose to pursue, they will be amalgamated with others from around the globe on a regular basis and doing business locally with those whose native language is not English. Language education cultivates and enhances basic communication skills and higher order thinking skills. It has a positive effect on intellectual growth. It leaves students with more flexibility in thinking, greater sensitivity to language, and a better ear for listening in turn increasing job opportunities and performances especially since diversity and teamwork is a growing focus of many organizations.

PLZZ HELPP!!!<br><br> QUESTION &amp; STORY IS BELOW!
sergejj [24]

Answer:

1)

I believe the most difficult part of Stacy's experiences with her grandmother would be the first time Stacy showed her grandmother her shoe. There was a lot of tension between her grandmother and Stacy at that period. For instance: "They'll ruin your feet." She lunged toward me and tried to snatch them away. Angry and bewildered, I retreated a few steps and showed her the shoe." and "When she looked back at the satin ribbons, it was with a hate and disgust that I had never seen before. "Give those to me." She held out her hand. I clutched the ribbons tightly against my stomach. "Why?" " At this point, there is much confusion and anger between Stacy and her grandmother. After this excitement in the story, Stacy became very distant from her mother, and there was much tension. For example      "The next morning, I decided that if Grandmother was going to be mean to me, then I would be mean to her. I began to ignore her. When she entered a room I was in, I would deliberately turn around and leave. For the rest of the day, things got more and more tense."

2)

From 'understanding self and others', and 'the power of love', and 'solving life's mysteries', I could conclude that the best theme to fit those words would be that with love and humility you must go out and do what you love best, understanding what others might feel and how you would, to fulfill your purpose and discover great treasures in life. For example,  "I covered her hands with mine. "I just wanted to show you what I love best- dancing." "And I love my children," she said. I could hear the ache in her voice. "And my grandchildren. I don't want anything bad to happen to you."  and "and then I began crying, too. "So much to learn," she said and began hugging me back. "So much to learn." These two sentences show us that you must understand what others might feel and how you would, to fulfill your purpose and discover great treasures in life.

3)

Conflicts between people can be resolved by communicating with each other and explaining their differences.  (IDEA-you can write the explanation)

Note:

I'm so sorry, but this is all I can help you with, I really have to go. Please know that this is completely original(no plagarisium), but you might want to change it up a bit before you hand it off.

Explain why this quote is meaningful.
Art [367]

"Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of man's heart, and the fall through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy."

I'd say this quote is meaningful in a sense that Ralph wanted to bring an end to innocence and the darkness that dwells in one's heart. "and the fall through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy." I think this line means that he also wanted true and honest people to fall, being call "wise friend called piggy" I think means that when he is "wise" this isn't meant to be taken seriously. This is a sarcastic wkrd to describe him, for he is in fact not wise, because he wants to basically bring the end to all good that would come to man. I also chose (C) Connect because I have connected the meaning of the quote to the reader.
