English

Answer:

Obama claimed that like the students,

1. He had to wake at the very early hours of the morning to take lessons from his mother.

2. He suffered challenges that would have limited him, such as being raised by a single mom who was not really financially buoyant.

Explanation:

In his speech at Wakefield High School, Virginia, USA, which students from other schools tied in to, President Obama encouraged the students to work hard at their studies. He noted that most of the students would rather prefer being on their beds during summer, than having to put in the extra efforts to come to school. This was an experience he had when he was younger and had to wake as early as 4:30 a.m to get some extra lessons from his mother who could not afford to send him to American schools at that time.

Also, he agreed that like the students he had challenges that would have made him quit, such as, being raised by a single mom who struggled to take care of him when his father left the family at his early age of two. He therefore, urged the students to never let any challenges they faced, limit their growth.

Which word in the sentence is the predicate adjective? On stormy days, the sky looks very threatening.
pantera1 [17]
The answer is B. because it shows how it looks. C. is confusing because you think of stormy as an adjective, but it's actually just a verb because it IS storming.

What do the tools such as bits, reins, halters, knives, and whips symbolize in the story?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

  • The tools such as bits, reins, halters, knives, and whips symbolize the oppression of the working class under the tsar.

Explanation:

Each one of those devices represent to the vehicle of the dictatorship to have the people under their control. The viciousness, the consistent compromise of their lives. It speaks to the absence of decisions the common laborers had under the tsar' regime.

The question belongs to this passage from chapter 2 of Animal Farm:

<em> The harness-room at the end of the stables was broken open; the bits, the nose-rings, the dog-chains, the cruel knives with which Mr. Jones had been used to castrate the pigs and lambs, were all flung down the well. The reins, the halters, the blinkers, the degrading nosebags, were thrown on to the rubbish fire which was burning in the yard. So were the whips. All the animals capered with joy when they saw the whips going up in flames.</em>
