Here are the definitions to each of the tiles.

Elegy - An elegy is sorrowful or melancholy. An elegy is often written to lament someone's death. Similar to odes, elegies have not set form. 

Ballad - A ballad is a story told in the oral tradition but in the form of a song.

Epic - An epic is a long poem with a complex plot, elevated language, and often the presence or mention of supernatural beings.

Ode - Odes often employ a figure of speech in which the speaker directly addresses a person or object that is not present or is imaginary.

Now that we have the definition of each of the tiles. All we have to do match them to each of the styles of poetry.

a poem to commemorate someone who has passed away is an Elegy.

a long, melodious poem that narrates a story is a Ballad.

a long poem with a complex plot, elevated language, and the presence of supernatural beings is an Epic.

a poem of praise that addresses a person or object that is not present or is imaginary is an Ode.

Please write an essay on Prometheus! No copy and pasting from E2020 please, and no plagiarization. Prompt: Write an informative
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer and Explanation:

Prometheus was a titan who saw in human beings a lot of potential and wanted to help them, since human beings were his creation and he was very proud of what he had created. He wanted humans to dominate the land and other animals and so he gave them the ability to think and reason. When Zeus saw this, he was angry, because with reasoning, human beings would be unbeatable and dominate Zeus' creations. For this reason, to limit the autonomy of human beings, Zeus took away from them the possibility of producing fire on the earth.

Prometheus then resolved to steal fire from Olympus and give it to humans, allowing them to remain the true dominators of the land.

This story has a strong cultural significance, as the Greeks were very connected to knowledge, study and reasoning and used this story to explain the importance of thought, which made Zeus himself worried.

Which is a reason an author might choose to write in the first person?
Anarel [89]

Hello!

The correct answer is B. To make it seem as if a character is telling the story

With the use of first person, a story seems like the character  narrating it is explaining it themselves based off of their own experience. It also provides the perspective of that character, and can allow the reader to pick up on interprotations directly from the narrator’s experiences and views.

➶ I hope this helps you!

Have a wonderful day :)

The __________ postulates that individuals engaging in a new behavior, such as adopting a regular exercise program, move through
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The transtheoretical model of behavior change postulates that individuals engaging in a new behavior, such as adopting a regular exercise program, move through the stages of precontemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, and maintenance.

Explanation:

The transtheoretical model of behavior change was developed in 1977. It is a result of analysis and application of several psychotherapy theories - hence the name "transtheoretical". Its purpose is to assess someone's readiness to change an unhealthy behavior, trading it for a healthier one. The stages are:

1. Precontemplation

2. Contemplation

3. Preparation

4. Action

5. Maintenance

6. Termination

The stages vary from: a person not being ready to change a harmful behavior at all --> the person thinking of the possibility and beginning to admit his behavior is unhealthy --> the person taking small steps toward change and intending to do it for good --> the person modifying their behavior openly --> the person keeping the new behavior going for over six months --> the person feeling no temptation to return to the previous harmful behavior.

The function and lmportance of a free press in a democratic society
Murljashka [212]
<span>Democracy is a type of government ruled by the majority in which all the people have the right to interfere to whatever is the states’ decisions on its affairs. Freedom from press is the freedom of the people to express themselves in media and articles. Its function is to voice out everyone’s opinion onto matters. This is very important because though the people have voted its leaders, the leaders may not see the trivial problems in which ordinary citizens could. However this right must be taken with extreme caution against abuse.</span>
