Answer:
I'm going to start off by saying that I'm answering this assuming that the two stories you're referring to are "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost and "The Railway Train" by Emily Dickinson because these are two famous pieces and it's likely that you are referring to them.
Now, onto the comparing! Both of these stories are set in a natural, and people-free, almost lonely sort of environment. They both focus on a certain thing, whether it be a path or a train, in an environment with grass, meadows, mountains, and other such things while neglecting to mention anything relating to people. The lonely setting only serves to support the poems though, as they draw more focus to their main ideas.
These poems are different because while "The Road Not Taken" focuses on just a smaller area, a fork in a road, "The Railway Train" describes a train using personification as it moves along a whole countryside. The more pinpointed and focused setting of "The Road Not Taken" helps the reader understand what a vital, focused moment it was in the author's life it was, when they decided to choose the less-worn path. In "The Railway Train," the wider setting of a whole countryside that describes a meandering train evokes a sort of awe in the reader because it's almost like describing an adventure. This way of describing the path of the train in a wider setting helps the reader understand why the author likes watching the trains so much.

<u>Explanation</u>:
In Roald Dahl’s “Boy: Tales of Childhood,” is a medium through which he recalls his school days and the pranks he played during his young age. Mrs. Pratchett is a character found in his autobiography and was the owner of a sweet shop. She was described as a mean, small, dirty, skinny lady with a moustache. Her apron was greasy and grey in appearance. Her blouse had marks of breakfast on it. Her hands were dirty and full of grime. Plus, she had goat-like legs. All these adjectives give the reader an idea about how Mrs. Pratchett actually looked.
Explanation:
Take, for instance, the description of "an American" friend who has provided the speaker with information about preparing humans for consumption. This gives us a general idea, though within a comical context, of the reputation "Americans" still had in the early eighteenth century for being uncivilized, veritable "savages." But it's hyperbolic. (Hopefully Swift knew that Americans were not really like this, even at that time.)

<span>Communication often integrates, or combines, verbal and nonverbal messages. The correct answer is C, because the verb to integrate means to mix, to combine, to put together. Regulate, repeat, and contradict do not have the same meaning as to combine. Regulate means to control, repeat to do something again, and contradict to do the opposite of.</span>
