Answer:

B) The wind kicked up all the leaves we raked this morning.

Explanation:

Personification means to give human traits to non-humans.

In this answer choice, the wind (non-human) kicked (human-trait) up all the leaves we raked this morning.

Note that the wind is not a human, yet it is described as doing something a human would do, which is kick. This is an example of using personification.

Another example, can be:

<em>The door moaned loudly as it slowly creaked open. </em>

A door does not moan, it is a human trait that is used to describe the noise the door made.

Answer: Beauty and the Beast

Explanation:

While Snow White includes many components that illustrate the idea of beauty is more than skin deep, Beauty and the Beast most effectively demonstrates this because the Beast is a true prince in disguise. Snow White is always a beautiful woman, with a kind soul. The only time she struggles with seeing beneath the surface is when the Evil Queen poisons her, and even then, the queen isn't dressed or disguised beautifully. In Beauty and the Beast however, the hideous monster that Belle thinks she will never be able to fall in love with, turns out to not only be the handsome prince of her dreams, but also is a truly wonderful soul that she falls in love with on its own.

The Apology of Socrates
swat32
"Freedom of speech" is the feature of modern Western thoughts that is most influenced by the practices of Socrates. Socrates was born on 469 BC and died in 399 BC. Freedom of speech is the power gioven to coomon people to exercise their right to speak and share ideas without the fear of any retaliation from the Government. Although government tries to restrict this freedom of speech under certain conditions like using slang, obsenity, copyright violations, trade secrets and variety of other cases. Certain speech codes that are applied in State schools also restricts the freedom of speech.

 Socrates was a great believer in democracy. He was of the opinion that the people possessed real knowledge and all good things were within the people. So he believed that democracy was the only way to gain happiness. Plato on the other hand did not believe in pure democracy, but he believed in Republic Democracy, which is a mixture of democracy and oligarchy.

Answer:

Fitting in is an important part of life because it has almost everything to do with turning out in life. Knowing the right people will directly affect a person’s life later on, job wise and high school reunions. Part of fitting in is rejection. This happens because when someone does not reject a particular person then they might be rejected for not rejecting that person. “… Waking up in the morning and wondering if anyone would really miss me.” this is a thought that might course through someone’s mind after being rejected. Most people respond differently, Some people might dress and act totally different just to try to “fit in” that way. Most will just forget about that group or single person. I have often observed that people often times try to find out why that person or group rejected them and try to make it better. Being rejected is like someone saying “You do not fit in with us so leave us alone” it’s a nasty feeling. Some people let others down easy and that is nice of them. Why is it so hard to fit in? There is so much social pressure now that it is getting harder and harder to “fit in”. When I say social pressure I mean how to act, look, sound, walk, and so on.
