Answer:

It sustains the comparison of death to night.

Explanation:

The excerpt from Dylan Thomas' "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" illustrates the theme of death. The speaker is distressed by his father's deteriorating health and urges his father to struggle with death. He suggests that there is no bravery in crying. He says those who would survive would see the brightness and goodness of life which only comes from fighting against death.

<em>The words "night", "close of day", "dying of the light", and "dark" sustains the connotation of comparison of death to night. However, he elaborates on the inevitability of death yet encourages the old people to stand up against the fierce nature of death. </em>He attempts to convey a strong message that "do not go gentle into that good night" and suggests that one should never fear death and realize the meaning of life before giving their consent to mortality(death).

In what situations would it be possible for a bumblebee and a tiger to have the same momentum?
gogolik [260]

We know:

Momentum = mass X velocity

From the relation we can see that the velocity is directly proportional to the momentum. it is not possible for a bumblebee to have same mass as tiger. So, for a bumblebee and tiger to have the same momentum, the bumblebee need to increase its velocity. As the velocity of bumblebee increases, the momentum also increases.

Need help. first to answer the Question gits branly bun needs to know how
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Aphorism

Explanation:

Anagram is a word, phrase, or name formed by rearranging the letters of another. I don't think this is it because they is no words that were rearranged.

Aphorism is a pithy observation that contains a general truth. This could be true!

Analogy is a comparison between two things. This is not it because there are not two things being compared.

Allusion is an expression designed to call something to mind without mentioning it explicitly; an indirect or passing reference. This is not it because this sentence is explicit meaning it is very straight foward.

Out of all four of those... I would go with Aphorism.

Nookie1986 [14]
It's important to use the literary elements/devices in the book like how it describes someone's appearance by using a metaphor, simile, and personification. you can tell how one feels by how they say things like if they yelled it, it would mean they are angry in that part. in an action of a drama the sounds like a boom, paw, rattle etc. is helpful to think about while thinking of it. Imagery and detail is very helpful to use while picturing the action.

The phrase that best characterizes "Variations on a Theme by William Carlos
kotegsom [21]

Answer:  D. Imitative yet fresh

Explanation:

Koch´s poem is a parody, meaning that it purposefully makes fun of something. In this case, the author mocks a serious composition by imitating its style or tone. "Variations on a Theme by William Carlos

Williams," as many other poems by Koch, used satire to express his disagreement with the idea of poetry being solemn and not suitable for humor. By using a similar structure and theme (having done something wrong and providing an excuse for it), Koch mocks "This is Just to Say," by William Carlos Williams. And to make it more clear, Koch makes his character a doctor, just like Williams, who was a poet in his free time after working in the hospital.
