Answer:

C) God uses the rainbow as a sign of his promise never again to destroy all life on Earth.

Explanation:

In the Bible, man's wickedness made god so angry that He asked Noah to build an ark and save animals in pairs and also his family. The rest of mankind and life was wiped out from the face of the earth by the flood that lasted 40 days, bringing the earth to it's pre-creation condition. After the rains, God put a rainbow in the sky as a mark of his covenant with Noah, promising not to annihilate life from the earth ever again.

In at least 150 words, explain how the word choice in Rukeyser's "Poem" helps the author to establish a theme in the
Elden [556K]

Answer:

"I lived in the first century of world wars" is the opening line of "Poem" by Muriel Rukeyser (1913-1980) an American poet and political activist. Her best-known poems are about social justice, equality and feminism. Her choice of words establishes her anti-war theme and her efforts to oppose war through her poetry: "Slowly I would get to pen and paper, Make my poems for others unseen and unborn. In the day I would be reminded of those men and women, Brave, setting up signals across vast distances, Considering a nameless way of living, of almost unimagined values." She felt her poetry, which would outlive her, would be a message to those "unseen and unborn" who could work to promote peace and justice. "We would try by any means To reach the limits of ourselves, to reach beyond ourselves, To let go the means, to wake." Here Rukeyser was passing on the baton, as it were, to the generations "beyond ourselves" in the hope that they would be more purposeful peacemakers.

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Chore

Explanation:

Hi,

Pastime doesn't really have a negative connotation basically means how things agree. Pursuit doesn't either neither does activity. Maybe chore? Kids usually use chores as a way of saying they're being forced to do something they don't want to do. Pretty sure it's the only answer that actually makes sense.
