Answer:

Lines 19-21 suggest that the speaker is confused about the next step to take in life and needs guidance of her mother.

Explanation:

"Hanging Fire" is a poem about a 14-year-old teenage girl who expresses a myriad of emotions - excitement, enthusiasm, doubts, fears, anxieties - on various topical issues in her life.

In lines 19-21, she says that "she has plenty to do yet nothing to do" expressing her desire to launch out, explore and do things in life yet is held back by our fear or worry of the unknown. She is confused on the next steps to take as her teenage years unfold.

Meanwhile her mother who is supposed to be her guide through this phase of life is strangely absent, locked up behind closed doors in the bedroom, oblivious of the life challenges her daughter is going through

Answer:

B) Boaz admires Ruth’s courage in coming to a land that is foreign to her.

C) Boaz respects Ruth’s character due to the sacrifices she has made to be loyal to Naomi.

Explanation:

Ruth was the daughter-in-law of a woman named Naomi whose sons had died leaving her with the two widowed wives, Ruth and Orpah. Naomi's husband Elimelek had also died so she decided to return back to her hometown of Bethlehem. But she also gave permission to the two widows to return to their own families and stay happy with them.

While Orpah left, Ruth sticks with her mother-in-law and went to Bethlehem. There, she did work, obeying whatever Naomi told her or asked her to go, collecting the leftover harvests in people's fields. In one such field, the owner Boaz came to know about her. It is after much observation that he spoke to her these given words in the passage from <u>chapter 2:11</u>. This passage reveals the <u>admiration that Boaz has for Ruth, her courage in coming to a foreign land away from her own family. It also reveals the respect that Boaz has for Ruth's character for the sacrifices she has made by being loyal to her mother-in-law Naomi.</u>

State three consequences of students accumulating tuition debt during their period of study
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

  • Lower Credit Score

Having a high amount of student loans and tuition debt means that your FICO score will reflect this amount of debt and if it is defaulted on even once or timely payments are not made, your credit score will suffer which will make life so much harder in a country like the U.S.

  • Unable to buy a house

For a long time after college, you will probably be unable to buy a house unless you find a really good job that will help you pay off the student loan. This is because the loan already means that you have a high debt burden and then keeping up with both those payments and mortgage payments can be difficult.

  • Forgoing your dream career

A lot of the time, people are forced to give up the life they wanted in order to pursue another job that will enable them pay off their student loans especially in cases where their dream careers don't pay much or will take some time to pay off.
