The expression "sil of shade" is an allegory that represents the end of life, that is, death. This shows that the poem brings a reflection on the moment when life is finished, how this end is inevitable and it is not possible to escape it. This reflection is passed on to the reader through the words of the speaker of the poem, who is also reflecting, which shows that he is a reflective thinker.
Favorite food, sport, memory, color, trip, pet, song, singer/band. Then explain why it is your favorite.
Yes, true. We have to do that at school sometimes.
A dictionary is a source you can use to find definitions of words.
A thesaurus is a source you can use to find synonyms/antonyms for certain words.
These two combined can help you choose words that are not commonly used and it can improve your vocabulary range. I personally use a thesaurus way more than a dictionary to find synonyms for common words such as “good” or “smart”
Please include the scenarios that go along with the questions. :)
