Part of the exposition of a story or play is the presentation of the initial conflict. Which parts of the excerpt indicate the i

nitial conflict that drives the story?
DUNHAM: The beverages are getting low, madam — what with entertaining so much —

ELAINE: [In dismay.] But, mother, if you only have twelve people, Father can't sit at the head of the table.

MRS. PRINGLE: But he has to sit at the head. It looks too undignified when the man of the house is pushed to the side —

ELAINE: There's no other way. There must be a woman at each end —

MRS. PRINGLE: [Distraught.] How absurd! I always forget. Of course, twelve is an impossible number — [She goes around the table looking at the place cards.] I don't want to put any of these women at the head— there’s Mrs. Darby — such a cat — I wouldn't give her the honor and Mrs. — [The telephone rings.] Answer it, Dunham.

Make a poem about persistence
exis [7]

When we were little we dreamed

That we were kings and queens

And believing

When we got older

We regreted thoughts

And thought that

"It's not what it seems"

But we change quickly

One step

One word

And we can make the past disappear

As it seems

(Hmm idk if this was a poem XD)

One shade the more, one ray the less. The line connotes the woman’s hair, balance, paradox, or point of view
adell [148]
This line comes from <span>“She Walks in Beauty”, line 7 and this connotes balance. 

At the start of the poem, it already introduces two opposite components - darkness and light. In this line, the two opposites refer to her dark hair and her lightened face. So the first choice is wrong since it only speaks of the woman's hair. In this line, it is more about the balance of the two opposing forces. Even if she weren't proportioned just right, she would still be half beautiful. </span>

Answer:

I think ur essay really has potential

But I would include details of specifically how your hardships translated to a better work ethic, more compassion, etc

Also, in the intro part you say you weren't born with a "gold spoon" in ur mouth...the actual phrase is "silver spoon"
