Answer:

The excerpt suggests that the Iroquois believed that:

sometimes good can come from tragedy.

Explanation:

The excerpt in question is part of a creation myth by the Iroquois, a group of Native-American tribes. According to it, tragedy can give birth to blessings. The death of "our mother" gave origin to plants whose existence would be crucial for the survival of the Iroquois people: corn, beans, squash, and tobacco. Death does not cease to be a tragic event. It still brings sadness and loss into people's lives. But the myth uses it to show that, however bad things may seem, something good may come out of it.

Read the following passage from Muir's "Calypso Borealis" and respond to the prompt.
vekshin1

Answer:

Explanation:

The tone of this passage is that the author was solemn and distant. Wandering in the forest to find this myterious flower, and then finally finding it must have been amazing because he states at the end of paragraph 3," It seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people I had ever met. I sat down beside it and fairly cried for joy." He created the feeling of finally finding what you lost by saying that he cried for joy. Wanting to find something that seemed impossible, then finding it must have been a truly joyous feeling. He described the forest by having dropping vines and branches, having the feeling that you might get lost since the sun is going down, and describing finding the flower in all of its glory.

What is the meaning of this oxymoron? All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Oxymoron is a term that means two contradictory terms. For example faithful and unfaithful are two terms that are opposite to each other and mean different things.

In the statement, all animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others. The first half of the statement means a positive outlook whereas the second half of the statement is opposite to the first half. This is also an example of an oxymoron statement.
