_______________________
ANSWER CHOICE: A. <span>(12) It was started in 2009 by actor Matt Damon and Gary White, the co-founder of Water partners.
</span>_____________________________________________
Note: This answer is correct because this sentence contains a word: "partners"—that should be capitalized and written as "Partners"—as in: "Water Partners".

__________________________

Answer:

<em>The poem above is the one commonly referred to as </em><u><em>An Ode</em></u><em> since it is a tribute to a subject which might happen to be a man or a woman. </em>

This could be seen in this part of the poem below:

"<em>If I could write the beauty of your eyes </em>

<em>And in fresh numbers number all your graces, </em>

<em>The age to come would say 'This poet lies;</em>"

Can you review my homework to see if anything needs fixing up?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Most of the animals are working well together. <u>Mollie, for example, “[is] not good at getting up in the mornings, and [has] a way of leaving work early” (47) and on the other side of the spectrum, the pigs are working hard and taking extra because of it while Boxer, who was “always at the spot where the work was hardest” (46), got the same as the people who did what they were told and no more</u>. This makes things a bit less fair than they should because Boxer should be rewarded in some way for his volunteering and Mollie should work more.

Explanation:

The sentence I have underlines is a run on sentence. Here's how I would write it instead:

Mollie, for example, “[is] not good at getting up in the mornings, and [has] a way of leaving work early” (47), whereas the pigs are working hard and taking extra because of Mollie's tardiness. Boxer, who was “always at the spot where the work was hardest” (46), volunteered more than others and went above and beyond others.

Can someone please help ? Question one and two for 25 points
astra-53 [7]

1. Modernism. A notable characteristic of modernism is self-consciousness and irony concerning literary and social traditions, which often led to experiments with form, along with the use of techniques that drew attention to the processes and materials used in creating a painting, poem, building.

2. Some of the main characteristics of imagist poems are free verse and lack of rhyming pattern. It was a modern movement, so there was an attempt to move away from traditional poem forms and conventions. The idea was also to transform poetry from the sickly sentimental poetry that came before.
