Answer:

Two words using the root -gest- are gesture and digestion. The original meaning of the root as inherited from Lating was "carry" or "perform". In modern English, however, the word has a separate meaning of "a tale of adventures" or "a romance in verse" (according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary).

Explanation:

Here is a sentence with the word "gesture".

<u>Peter's gift was a very kind gesture.</u>

As for the connection of the word "gesture" with its root: the gift actually "carries" kindness or "performs" an act of kindness.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

The sentence "Free nations will press on to victory" relates to the central idea in the sense that:

b. It supports the main point that this is an ongoing fight that America will not abandon.

Explanation:

President Bush addresses how America has declared war against terror, and how that battle shall continue for as long as is necessary. Even though the troops are going home after serving, the mission continues. Terror is not over and, therefore, the war against it is also not over. America, as the free nation it is, will not accept terror to instigate fear among its people or to curb that people's freedom. When he says, "Free nations will press on to victory," he is supporting that point, the main one: the mission continues, the war against terror is not over. America will keep on fighting.

Could someone help me write a simile poem Thanks <br> stay safe and healthy
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

"Like a bruised, little bird  

Too confused to fly,  

I'm trapped, in a word,  

So confined am I.  

A captive, collared lion  

Alone in its pen,  

I'm pacin' and dyin'  

In a manmade den.  

For an eagle was not meant  

To be locked in a cage,  

Its life to be spent  

Like a picture on a page."

Explanation:

Hope this helps!
