lana66690 [7]

Answer:

A). Unconcerned about time.

Explanation:

Allen Ginsberg's poem 'A Supermarket in California' is one of his minor poems dealing with the variations in life(American) portrayed by Whitman and Ginsberg. The speaker visits a supermarket in California and fantasizes Whitman and Lorca shopping there which reflects Ginsberg's optimism.

From the given excerpt, the best inference would be that the speaker is 'unconcerned about the time' that reflects the inadequacy of interest and fret(as he keeps wandering around and imagining) . The speaker rather focuses on glorifying Whitman's bequest and legacy. Thus, option A is the correct answer.

(ELA) Expressions that seem to say one thing but actually mean something else are called:

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

B. idioms

Explanation:

Idioms are phrases or expressions that say one thing but are in fact conveying a different meaning which is previously culturally established.

If one tries to understand them literally, they won’t have much sense. Yet, those who know language proficiently will understand the meaning of these phases in a metaphoric sense accepted in the common language and the symbolic matter.

Some of the examples can be:

when the pigs fly – this means something will never happen, as pigs do not fly
piece of cake – means something is very easily achieved and accomplished with little effort.
to pull someone’s leg – idiom meaning to joke with someone, to make them believe in something which is not true, but in a playful way. \
to break the ice – meaning to do something first and make others at ease, to relieve the tension.

In what ways does transformation play a role in stories meant to scare us?

mr Goodwill [35]

What is a transformation?

The first book about transformations is the well-known work "Metamorphosis" by Ovidio. The transformation implies a change. In literature, you can find a transformation when an object passes from a state A to a state B. For example, in a horror story a person can go from being the friend of the protagonist to being possessed.

The transformation in the horror stories is unexpected. The surprise factor is essential in this cases. The horror stories present the circumstances in such way so as later can be different.
