Answer:

Author Terry Bisson's short story, which reads as a conversation between two extraterrestrials, first appeared in ''Omni'' magazine in 1990. When it opens, the two beings are talking about an encounter they've had with creatures (presumably humans) they've ''picked up from different parts of the planet.'' The first being is questioning the second about the makeup of these creatures and cannot seem to understand how meat could be capable of making - and using - machines:

''That's ridiculous. How can meat make a machine? You're asking me to believe in sentient meat.'' To be sentient means to have feelings or senses.

The first being simply cannot believe that anything made of meat could be thinking, feeling, or creating. The second being tells the first that they probed the lifeforms and everything - including the brain - is made out of meat. In fact, these suspicious creatures are ''...thinking meat! Conscious meat! Loving meat. Dreaming meat. The meat is the whole deal!''

Describe my sister in 5 sentence​
Artemon [7]

Answer:

Can I just guess, please? If I can, here you go.

Explanation:

Your sister is tall. She has long, straight, brown hair. She has green eyes that shimmer whenever she opens them after she blinks, light and soft. A lot of boys are attracted to her because of her unique beauty. We love her just the way she is, no matter what she looks like.

Sorry if that was wrong I didn't really know what to do but can you still tell me if any of it was right? Thanks:) (Oh, and also, I write poems. sooooo, yeah.)

Write a creative Christmas story. Be sure to include characters, a magical setting, dialogue, and
viva [34]

Have you ever fallen out of a flying sleigh led by eight reindeer going at 100 or more miles per hour? yeah me neither. that is, until last Christmas. I was going downstairs for a cup of hot cocoa when I heard a loud THUMP. At first, I thought it was a burglar and panicked. but then I saw a pair of black boots and an enormous red body strolling around my living room.

When he saw me, he almost jumped with fright. He told me that I shouldn't be there. Shouldn't be there? It's my own house? He's the one who was breaking and entering! I was about to tell him off when he flew up onto the roof and shouted for the reindeer to move. What on earth was happening? Was I seriously getting kidnapped by Santa Claus?

I must have been dreaming. When the sleigh started to move, I nearly threw up. But eventually i calmed down. It was actually really fun. but soon we were going really fast. before i knew it, we were in paris! i watched the beautiful city drift underneath us and fell into a trance. We soon floated up above the clouds. all of a sudden, the sleigh was moving out of control! we couldnt get it to go back on track. i felt so dizzy, i nearly fell out the sleigh! actually i did!

i was falling down through the soft clouds as i watched the starry sky swirl above my head. before i knew what had happened, i was in my bed, drifting fastly to sleep.

Based on this excerpt from "Porphyria's Lover” by Robert Browning, what does the setting contribute to this poem?
kiruha [24]

A. <em>The storm enhances the mysterious quality of Porphyria and her appearance </em>This is the correct option.

Robert Browning wrote this monolgue in 1836 during Victorian times. Porphyria was a mysterious woman who defied the morality of the times. She came from the simple and wild rural area; the poet was comfortable at home. He represented urban life. This sort of life was severly criticised by Victorian  people. However, Porphyria wanted to escape from the rigid Victorian way of life. This was strange and ,in the monologue ,this strange characteristic of the woman's is emphasised through the storm.

These optins are not right:

B. The power of the storm underscores Porphyria's power ( On the contrary, the storm makes her more mysterious).

C. The wildness of the storm contrasts with Porphyria's conventionality ( In fact, Porphyria is not traditonal or conventional at all. She wants to rebel against the opression of Victorian England).

D. The destructive nature of the poem echoes Porphyria's limitless passion. ( The setting of the poem is related to the storm in this excerpt. There is not any destructive tone in this excerpt. )
