Truth by Nikki grimes

5 0

Answer:

TRUTH BY NIKKI GRIMES

1. The truth is, every day we rise is like thunder — a clap of surprise.

2. Could be echoes of trouble, or blossoms of blessing.

3. You never know what garish or gorgeously disguised memories-to-be might rain down from above.

4. So, look up! Claim that cloud with the silver lining.

5. Our job, if you ask me, is to follow it.

6. See where it heads.

Explanation:

Like in everyday life, tone can either be angry, happy, sad, excited, formal or informal. This depiction of tone can also be applied to poetry. A reader or audience can read through a poem and detect the tone the poet is using to convey his message.

Tone can be formal, informal, playful, angry, serious or humorous, and the tone of a poem can even change throughout the poem.

While describing a poem,adjectives can be used to convey the reader's interpretation of the poem and how much he appreciates the poem or not.

Alliteration is the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely related words.

"Claim that cloud", in line 4

"blossoms of blessing" in line 2

"memories-to-be might rain down" in line 3

These are some examples of alliteration used in the poem.

The poet develops the tone of the poem using alliteration as he implores the readers about the dawn of each new day. He describes it as thunder, echoes of trouble or blossoms of blessings. He's trying to set the stage using a descriptive formal tone.

The author also talks about the uncertainty of life in line 3.

What conflict arises between Snowball and Napoleon in the book Animal Farm? How does it reflect their differing goals as leader?
siniylev [52]
Snowball wanted that every animal on the farm be treated the same, no matter the size, or what type they were. He exectued his plans in a way that every animal did their own share of work, and were rewarded for doing such. Napoleon also had this same idea, but was eventually corrupted with the luxuries of the house. Napoleon eventually started to work the animals just like the farmer had done. This reflects their differing goals because it shows the true nature of each character - Snowball, the ready leader. And Napoleon, the corrupted ruler who eventually turned on what was once his views.

When Mairs does find someone who represents her how does she respond to their depiction of a person with disabilities
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

Mairs responded by telling them that their depiction was painful to the disabled people, especially when it comes to their<u> self-esteem</u>. This makes the disabled people hopeless in conforming to the society that they belong–thinking that they'll never be good enough when compared to the able-bodied in the advertisements. This makes them <u>invisible to the society.</u>

Explanation:

The local advertiser she asked responded to her that they didn't include disabled people in their advertisements because<u><em> people might get a wrong notion that the advertisement was only for the disabled people.</em></u>

For Mairs, it is important that the able-bodied people should also recognize the disabled people as an important part of the society.
