This question is about the poem “One Today” by Richard Blanco.

Answer and Explanation:

1. The poem's details present Americans as workers from the most different sectors, from those who work in professions that we recognize as well as those who build bridges, who make newspapers, who clean tables, among other less admired service workers, but still essential for the country. With that, the poet showed that each American is important in a unique and unique way.

2. In addition to joint cooperation between individuals, the poet recognizes the ability to generate connections, among Americans, through mourning. This can be seen when he refers to the armed massacres that took place in schools and caused the death of many children. The mourning of the children's families establishes a connection with the whole country, which is also in mourning.

alukav5142 [94]
She searches for her and meets a queen. she then turns the queens baby into a demigod to thank her for her kindness when she was disguised as an old woman. After revealing herself as Demeter, she and the soldiers of the queen's nation begin searching for Persephone. She meets the sun titan and finds out where Persephone was taken from. She meets Hecate, a witch who tells her it was Hades, so Demeter goes to Zues, who tells her that he can do nothing about it. Demeter flips out and nothing grows anywhere except the place where the queen helped Demeter. Mortals were dieing and the gods were becoming irritated. Zues finally caved and sent Hermes to get Persephone, right after she eats part of the pomegranate. He tells this to Zues and Demeter, who turns the gardener who gave her the pomegranate into a newt. they eventually come to the agreement of Persephone stays in the underworld for part of the year, which is believed to be winter when Demeter is in distress until her daughter returns and nothing grows. Sorry for the long answer, I probably added a lot of unnecessary stuff.

What were Caesar’s bad qualities or characteristics?
OLga [1]
Caesar's bad traits were really a matter of perception. He achieved much success as a military leader who consolidated power and defeated enemies which led to amassing large amounts of foreign territory. He was very unpopular with the aristocrats of his time due to a number of his policies. He favor the poor and that angered the wealthy in his land. He also was suspected of aiming to become King of Rome due to his massive amount of power, this was not supported by the political system or the people of his time. He also had no fear of violence, even on massive scales. He committed many massacres on people, some in other lands, some who he promised retribution to due to being held captive as a child.

Select the sentence that correctly uses quotation marks.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

C. Ashley asked, "Do we have homework tonight?"

Explanation:

If you start by telling who said it, use a comma and then the first quotation mark.

Punctuation always goes inside the quotation marks if it is a direct quote. If you use an exclamation point of a question mark, do not use a comma.

Dialogue begins with a capitalized word, no matter where in the sentence it begins.

1. In her poem, "What Your Mother Tells You Now," Mitsuye Yamada writes,
exis [7]

Answer:

C.) The line breaks make sure that the reader slows down as they read

Explanation:

The poem has these breaks in the lines to serve as a way for the reader to see the emphasize on the meaning behind the words.

"What your mother tells you

now

in time

you will come to know",

The bolded words are read slower and the meaning is emphasized on them compared to if the poem were written as, "What your mother tells you now in time you will come to know." Thus these breaks trigger the reader to slow down and fathom the meaning of the words more.
