<span>There goes the playful summer west wind</span>
Silently brushing my cheeks with gentle strokes.
There goes the memory of summer love
So soothing and animated as the shadows.
Here they come and there they swiftly go
Like the ripples of the sudden rain on the pond.
Wish forever is my friend granting my every desire.
Hope life is unending and always blissfully fun,
But here I am all alone again full of agony
When will life ever end and relieve me of this
longing?
Simile, personification, irony
My home boy said A hope that helps
Hi,
The answer should be ‘thesaurus’.
Answer:
On average, school uniforms cost $150 a year, which is much less than the average spent on back-to-school clothes.
Explanation:
As seen in the given passage, the author's main claim is that the introduction and use of uniforms in schools is a much better option for both parents and the students. The uniforms will enable the students to not only dress the same but also give them much more time to focus on their studies.
And in the argument that mandatory school uniforms are the basis of equality in a school, the author states that this move <em>"save(s) money and time"</em>. This argument can be supported by the statement that <em>"financial investment in uniforms at the beginning of the school year is far more economical than the purchase of an entire wardrobe of designer clothes and trendy styles."</em> So, the fact that <u>spending $150 a year for school uniforms is much more economical than the average spending on back-to-school clothes best supports the author's claim/ position. </u>
Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
I wasn't able to find this question online to see if it is supposed to be a multiple-choice question or an open-ended one. Therefore, I will provide you with my own analysis and interpretation of the paragraph.
Answer and Explanation:
In this particular excerpt from Virginia Woolf's “In Search of a Room of One’s Own,” the author shows how dangerous it was for a woman to be intelligent and talented in the sixteenth century. Society feared and mocked gifted women. Mocked in the sense that they would try to convince her it was shameful, disgraceful to have her own thoughts expressed, to express her own feelings, to defy the status quo. Feared in the sense that society knew very well how powerful women could be once they began to express themselves, once they realized they too could write and produce ideas in a powerful manner. Women were "half witch, half wizard," inspiring respect and repulsion at the same time. That treatment by society would be enough to drive any woman - anyone, as a matter of fact - crazy.
