Answer:

The choice of commanding words "Beat! beat! drums! —blow! bugles! blow!" and “Come Up from the Fields Father,” at the beginning of the poems are the most striking, interesting and effective to create the desired atmosphere of the poet.

Explanation:

Each stanza of the poem, “Beat! Beat! Drums!” starts with the words, "Beat! beat! drums! —blow! bugles! blow!" to command for playing the instruments so loudly that can spread everywhere in the surrounding atmosphere. Whitman imagines that the sound fills the churches to congregate the scattered crowd, interrupts scholars from studying, disturbs the bride and groom trying to get privacy, and calls the farmers working in their fields. The words so sound cutting and effective to create the desired atmosphere of the Civil War.  The rhythmic pulse of the beginning line emphasizes the poem's appeal. The short, recurring syllables mimic the sound of beating drums and blowing bugles.  

Walt Whitman composes “Come up from the Fields, Father,” a poem on the topic of war, more precisely the impact that the involvement of a soldier in the war.  The poem begins on a calm autumn day in Ohio, where a farm was tranquil and amazing.  Abruptly the oldest daughter of the household starts calling “Come up from the Fields, Father,” to hear the sad news that their son has been fighting in the Civil War. The choice of words is accurate to create desired atmosphere of war at tranquil moment. Sound impact and alliteration of the properly placed words are the most interesting and effective.

Daniel Hale Williams was the first man to treat an injured human heart. In Chicago of 1893, Williams treated a colored man (what's his name?) with a knife wound in his heart. In a time when African-Americans and white people were racially segregated through discrimination, this hospital (What's the name of the Hospital Williams worked in?) the only one to treat both black and white people. Dr. Williams did x-rays on (the man's name?) to figure out the best way to treat the injury without killing his patient. There was no time to waste. Williams decided to take a chance and open up the man’s chest ignoring the protests of his fellow doctors. They carefully removed bones and muscles, knowing if they messed up they would lose their patient. Williams examined the stab wound to see how far it went. He went farther than the wound to repare a torn blood vessel and stich up the pericardium (a fluid-filled bag that surrounds the hart). He cleaned up the wound after put back the man`s muscle and bones, and stitched up the torn skin. The surgery was completed and (Name of the man?) successfully recovered. Williams made it on the newspaper in an article titled “Sewed Up His Heart". Dr. Williams took the risk to help someone live despite other's protests making him a hero in the history of the medical field.

Write a essay about time management
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Lately, I've been thinking about the time that I waste by just sitting so me and my friend Jimmy decided to manage our time by making a list of stuff we have to do. At first we didn't know what we should add on the list due to being kids, so we went to ask my mom and told her about the list and she suggested we should add a reading hour. I came back to Jimmy and told him about the idea and he wrote it down. The next idea came from Jimmy, a chess club. Right as I said that my mom heard him so she said that we have a chess table at home and we could play chess right now if we would like to. We agreed on the idea, and in a few seconds my mom came back with a big chess board, which look brand new, the barely used type of new. We started playing and as we started I realized that I didn't know how the pieces were moving, so I asked Jimmy if he could teach me, and he gladly agreed onto helping me. As my mom, I always was a fast learner so in about 20 minutes we were ready to play. It was kinda intense, because we both were making interesting decisions, which were hard to counter. We ended up making a draw by Jimmy making me not able to move with my king and not giving me check. It was fun, but as we were going to start making one more match, my mom has told me it was getting dark outside and that I was supposed to go to sleep. I told goodbye to Jimmy and went to bed, telling myself ''Now that s time management!''.

2) Quotation marks should be used around the speaker's actual words because it is a punctuation of speech.

3) Slowing the action is NOT a reason to use dialogue in a story. When a character talks, it adds personality to a character and tells us more about what is happening.</span>
