Although this is a subjective question, the best option for probably be "D like the sun and the interlopers" in terms of which two stories seem to have similar general themes.
Depend on who you're trying to persuade. Depending on the subject, the audience may be different, so the need for persuasion may have a different appeal. If it's a tragic novel, it may call for emotional and ethical persuasion. In a murder mystery, for example, it may call for logical and rational persuasion. In a fiction novel, it may call for facts and evidence, especially if evidence is needed to be cited. And most often times, persuasion includes interests and opinions, so don't worry about that one.
Answer: B
Explanation:
"icy" when describing a person's attitude or personality means cold, rude, etc, but a smile is usually happy and warm.
Personally I don't think it's an oxymoron- it's definitely possible to do a rude, fake smile. But B is what an oxymoron is- two words that are opposite in meaning and shouldn't technically be used together- like "awfully good" or "bittersweet."
Here's one example of a 'free verse stanza of poetry.
"Who am I?" -
Who am I, you ask?
I am a lion who comes off as a lamb.
I am an ocean with waves big enough to drown.
I am a roller coaster of emotions.
I am a hater of ignorant people, liars,
And people who use others for a gain.
I am a lost soul, a naive child.
I am one who has seen enough
That would make most people's skin crawl.
I am me, not you.
I am who I am.
Judging me is only a negative reflection on you.
So who am I, you ask?
I am me...just me.
One identification of how my poem can be considered a free verse because many people go threw many questions and common life problems. People may forget what they are and what their life meaning is. So this can be a 'free verse'.
Hey again!
The answer is based on personal opinion. I don't think our teachers should be armed, but there are advantages and disadvantages.
Multiple pros and cons of teacher's being armed.
Two pros:
- To protect their students and themselves during an active shooting
- They wouldn't be defenseless during a shooting
Why shouldn't they? (Cons) - They might use the gun to discipline their students.
- A child could find and use the firearm.
- It's not the teacher's job to be a bodyguard for the students.
- The students may feel unsafe around the teacher.
I hope this helps.
