Answer:

Vigor, bitterness, priceless

Explanation:

Vigor means physical strength and in good help. So when the poet says "Her vigor flows like tides in my blood." It emphasises the fact that her well-being is very important to him.

Bitterness in this poem is used to describe the bread that he was given. It can also be used to describe how is being treated and how it isn't very nice. I know this because the author of the poem uses the word bitter. When something is bitter it doesn't have a very appealing taste.

The author uses the word priceless to describe the treasure that is sinking beneath the sand. It means that if the treasure is lost it may never be found again so the author can use this powerful word to associate it with the fact that this object may never be found again.

Which sentence uses the active voice? my research paper was finished two days early. my research paper is being finished two day
Minchanka [31]
"I finished my research paper two days early."

A good way to determine active vs passive is to ask who performed the action. Did the subject perform the action, or was the action performed "by" the subject?

The subject performs the action in this sentence:

I = [subject]
finished = [action]
my research paper = [thing on which the action was performed]

In the other examples, the subject has an action performed on it. 

My research paper = [subject]
was finished/is being finished = [action]
two days early = [time frame information, not really important for the discussion here]

At this point, you have no indication as to who will finish the paper, do you? No. You assume that the paper will be completed "by me," but it could just as easily be completed "by my friend."

If you can add "by [person/thing]" to a sentence, it's passive voice. If you can't, it's not. Clearly, you would never say "I finished my research paper by me."
