empty, with foraging, your plate can always be full." What literary scheme does Patrick use to make his final statement impactful?

Answer:

Antithesis

Explanation:

Antithesis means opposite which emphasizes the contrast. It is a literary scheme in which two opposite ideas are placed together in a sentence to accomplish a contrasting effect. Patrick uses two contrasting words 'empty' for wallet and 'full' for plate in his final statement. The juxtaposition of empty and full creates a statement which makes it highly impactful.

The Seafarer is an Old English poem and is one of the famous Anglo-Saxon elegies found only in The Exeter Book.


The protagonist talks about his life that he spent sailing in the open ocean, the hardships he faced while on the sea, the beauty of nature, and his love for seafaring. He thanks, God and asks for the righteous path to heaven.


The poem does have ambivalent expressions wherein he is fascinated on one hand but terrified on the other. It is a very common feeling for human beings to feel so.


There are times when a person is excited to try something new or about an upcoming event but is scared that it might turn out to be a disaster. It is all based on human feelings and emotions wherein a person is attached to someone or something and has a fear of losing himself or the other. It is based on anxiety and love for oneself

Read the excerpt from "I Believe in a British Empire” by Joseph Chamberlain.
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

A. Both conclusions wish other nations of the world well, but Chamberlain advocates imperialism, while Nehru advocates freedom for India.

Explanation:

Joseph Chamberlain's (8 July 1836 – 2 July 1914) concluding phrase <em>"future union with the British races throughout the world"</em>, the title of the text <em>"I Believe in a British Empire"</em> and the start of the text all show that Chamberlain is advocating British imperialism.

Jawaharlal Nehru's (14 November 1889 – 27 May 1964) <em>"the eternal and the ever-new, we pay our reverent homage and we bind ourselves afresh to her service</em>" and <em>"pledge ourselves to cooperate with them in furthering peace, freedom and democracy."</em> show that he is advocating freedom for India as well as democracy and peace.

Option B is not correct as Chamberlain says nothing about religion, is against separate England. And Nehru clearly demands freedom for India.

Option C is not correct Because Nehru says nothing directly about British people.

Option D is not correct because Chamberlain's text says nothing about peace, and Nehru's text nothing about competition.

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Explanation:

Banning and partial banning of fast food advertising has been a cause for debate globally over the last few years. The call to ban has been in large part due to the influence these businesses have on childhood obesity rates. Another factor driving the debate is health issues in the general population from the consumption of fast foods. Diabetes, intestinal problems, and poor dental health are all contributed to by processed foods and high sugar content drinks that are the mainstay of fast food restaurants.
