The present perfect refers to an act that took place in the past, from the perspective of the present. "I have eaten" means that at some point in the past, eating occurred. Now (at the present), it is over.

The simple present tells you about what's going on currently. "I eat" means that the act of eating is ongoing. (Though it can also refer to a habitual act; I may not be eating right at this instant, but it's the sort of thing that I could be doing right now, because the eating isn't complete.)

Examine the usage of the words bequeath and posterity in this excerpt from Thomas Paine's Common Sense. Then complete the senten
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

The complete sentences are:

According to Paine, the government of Great Britain will bequeath nothing that will endure to the colonists.

He also implies that the posterity of any nation has the right to blame their predecessors for their suffering.

Explanation:

The meaning of the word bequeath is to leave something after your death in a literal definition, then in the excerpt, it means that Great Britain won't leave anything of value to the colonist after they're gone.

The meaning of the word posterity in a literal way is the descendants in a family, then in here, it is mention that future generations will live in the place that their predecessors have created and will have the right to blame them if these conditions are not good.

My elephant is missing by kenn Nesbitt <br>what was the problem in the poem<br>​
Bogdan [553]
I cannot find my elephant.
He must have run away.
He isn’t on the sofa
where he promised he would stay.

I’ve looked around the living room,
the kitchen and the hall.
My elephant is missing
and I’m not sure who to call.

I’ll need to get a bloodhound
who can track him by his scent,
or hire a house detective
to discover where he went.

He isn’t in the basement
or the attic or the yard.
You’d think, to find an elephant
would not be quite so hard.

Perhaps I’ll make some posters,
and I’ll offer a reward.
I’d make it more, but fifty cents
is all I can afford.

If you should see my elephant,
he answers to “Jerome.”
Please tell him that I miss him
and I wish he’d come back home.

He knows the way. It’s up the street
and down our garden path.
And next time I won’t warn him
when it’s time to take his bath.
