Answer: He grinds out graduates who are similar to each other as if he were running a factory.

Explanation:

Mr. Thomas Gradgrind is the notorious school board Superintendent in Dickens's novel Hard Times. He is committed to the pursuit of a profitable business. The use of Gradgrind as a surname follows Dickens' habit of representing people from the merchant class as grasping and selfish, dedicated to grinding down workers without fair compensation or any clemency.

His name is used commonly to describe people who are hard and exclusive concerned with facts and numbers.

Eassy on women in space
Paladinen [302]

Explanation:

Women in space have been present and active since the beginning of human spaceflight. The first woman flew to space in 1963, two years after the first person, but it was not until almost 20 years later that more would be sent.

Since then a considerable number of women from a range of countries have worked in space, though overall women are still significantly less often chosen to go to space than men and represent by 2020 only 10% of all astronauts who have been to space.By 2021 most of the 65 women who have been to space, have been United States citizens, with missions on the Space Shuttle and on the International Space Station. Other countries have had one (United Kingdom, France, South Korea, Italy) or two (USSR, Canada, Japan, Russia, China) women citizens in space, taking part in missions of programs with human spaceflight capability.

Additionally one dual Iranian-US woman citizen has participated as tourist on an US mission. It has even been concluded that women might be better suited for longer space missions.[3] The main obstacle for women to go to space remains gender discrimination.

Which statement best describes the effect of alliteration in this stanza?
Nutka1998 [239]
I can’t see the stanza, but generally, alliteration can help add mood and sometimes tone to the writing. The repetitiveness can add a cadence to the poem.
