Answer:

The caged bird sings; the free bird thinks

Explanation:

The pair of uses of figurative language from "The Caged Bird" that help support the extended metaphor of freedom versus oppression is "the caged bird sings; the free bird thinks".

Metaphor is a figure of speech which actually describes an action or thing in a way that is not literally true but it helps to make a comparison.

The use of "the caged bird sings" and "the free bird thinks" shows the comparison of the caged bird and the free bird. It tends to show what the personality does when oppressed and when free. They show an extended metaphor of freedom versus oppression.

"The Caged Bird" is a poem by Maya Angelou which is concerned with imprisonment and an inner urge for freedom.

Please explain the two reasons why even though 1/3 of the honeybees have been wiped out, the almond population has
algol13

Answer:

The shortage of honeybees has pushed up the price of hive rentals for almond pollination to an all-time high of $140 per hive, so more and more beekeepers are making the trip west, and the Almond Board's requirement of two hives each containing 20,000-30,000 bees per acre to pollinate the almonds is excessive, but provides a buffer should some of the hives be empty.
