Answer: snug as a gun

Explanation:

"The simile 'snug as a gun' is startling when it appears in the poem "Digging." After just a line and a half, Heaney has already created an image of a writer sitting down to quietly reflect and contemplate, with the pen "resting" and "snug." When "gun" follows these two peaceful words, it suggests that the poem won't be.."

Describe one of the main themes of "A Wedding Gift."
ss7ja [257]
Weddings are one of the most auspicious celebrations in India. Choosing a wedding gift is quite a ritual. Most wedding gifts follow a unique theme. This theme in India is mostly related to utility.
Utility goods are one of the main themes of a wedding gift. A coffee or tea set, a coffee maker, a rice cooker, a dinner set, a set of casseroles are the primary choices. Then comes crockery and cutlery sets.
Bedsheets, bed covers, table cloths, table mats are also preferential. Whatever be the present it has to be thoroughly utilised by the newly married couple. Sarees, suit pices, dressing material are also perfect gifts for weddings.
Paintings and photo frames are seldom gifted as they are more of decoration and less of utility. So next time you choose a gift make sure it fulfills the code of utility.

Hi guys I’m writing a research paper about “how William Butler Yeats Irish identity shaped his poetry” I need some facts and ide
ale4655 [162]
William Butler Yeats[a] (13 June 1865 – 28 January 1939) was an Irish poet and one of the foremost figures of 20th-century literature. A pillar of the Irish literary establishment, he helped to found the Abbey Theatre, and in his later years served as a Senator of the Irish Free State for two terms. He was a driving force behind the Irish Literary Revival along with Lady Gregory, Edward Martyn and others.

Yeats was born in Sandymount, Ireland and educated there and in London. He spent childhood holidays in County Sligo and studied poetry from an early age when he became fascinated by Irish legends and the occult. These topics feature in the first phase of his work, which lasted roughly until the turn of the 20th century. His earliest volume of verse was published in 1889, and its slow-paced and lyrical poems display debts to Edmund Spenser, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and the poets of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. From 1900, his poetry grew more physical and realistic. He largely renounced the transcendental beliefs of his youth, though he remained preoccupied with physical and spiritual masks, as well as with cyclical theories of life. In 1923, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.

I have to make an essay about what defines art relating it to orange juice. Please help me :)
nadezda [96]

Answer:

I need more information to even know where to get started with this. What kind of art? Painting? Sculpture? Writing? Spoken word poetry? This is a very broad "thesis", and unfortunately I'm pretty sure it doesn't qualify as a thesis at all.
