The most likely reason the author chose a free verse structure for "Song of Myself" is that:

Free verse allowed for the expression of expansive ideas.

Walt Whitman in his poem “Song of Myself” prohibits himself from singing the songs of war, rage, and journeys and instead sings the song of himself as the subject of his poem. The poem deals about his journey and experience in this world. There are two main characters in his poem, which are 'I' and 'you.' Whitman speaks about the grass which is the symbol of democracy. He says that the grass of democracy feeds itself on the bodies of the dead. In the poem Whitman used stanzas of varying length and the topic of his poem changed with change in stanzas.

What is the narrator’s intention for “unnaming” the animals?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The narrator's intention for "unnaming" the animals is:

to become one with nature and have equality rather than showing domination over the creatures by labeling them with a name.

Explanation:

This question refers to the short story "She Unnames Them ", by author Ursula K. Le Guin. The narrator is Eve, the first woman created by God according to the Bible. In the story, Eve realizes the need to take back the names given to the animals, and even her own name. She unnames them. Some are hesitant, but in the end all animals accept remaining nameless. She notices then that her purpose has been fulfilled:

<em>They seemed far closer than when their names had stood between myself and them  like a clear barrier: so close that my fear of them and their fear of me became one same fear. And the  attraction that many of us felt, the desire to feel or rub or caress one another’s scales or skin or feathers   or fur, taste one another’s blood or flesh, keep one another warm -- that attraction was now all one with  the fear, and the hunter could not be told from the hunted, nor the eater from the food.</em>

Now, since there are no names to distinguish them, they are all the same. No separation is felt any longer. There are no classes, just "them". Eve then goes to Adam and gives her own name back. She is free, like the animals she unnamed, from the label once forced onto her.

How do batteries work
Oxana [17]
Not sure how it's an English question, but Batteries have three parts, an anode (-), a cathode (+), and the electrolyte. The cathode and anode (the positive and negative sides at either end of a traditional battery) are hooked up to an electrical circuit. The chemical reactions in the battery causes a build up of electrons at the anode.

So you subtract the fractal amounts from the whole with all of his customer being 1 and adding all the fractions 1-(1/8+2/5+3/10)
1-(1/8+4/10+3/10)
1-(1/8+7/10)
1-(5/40+28/40
1-(33/40)
1=40/40
40/40-33/40
