English

Answer:

A. Death.

Explanation:

Gary Soto's poem "The Tempest 4.1.156-8" is a reference to William Shakespeare's play "The Tempest". But Soto used this play and gave it a slight twist, with the poem leaning towards the theme of death.

The use of the phrase<em> "eternal sleep"</em> in the second line of the poem is suggestive of death, the eternal sleep of a person. Soto, like Shakespeare, believes that we are not to be in this world forever. He states <em>"We are such stuff... rounded with a sleep"</em>. Then he continues with the line<em> "but before this eternal sleep"</em>, suggesting the scene where <em>"our loved ones look away"</em> to not see us die before their eyes.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

In the Second Episode, of what has Creon been accused?
Gekata [30.6K]

In the Second Episode, the thing that Creon had been accused of is A)conspiring to overthrow the king.

This suspicion is heavy as Creon certainly has the means to attempt a coup and this made him a very likely suspect and people began to be wary after he was directly accused.

<h3>What is a Narration?</h3>

This refers to the storytelling that is done with the aid of a narrator to show the sequence of events.

Hence, we can see that based on the complete text, there was some considerable suspicion on the part of Creon about overthrowing the king as he wanted to take his position and this was what he was accused of.

Self doubt, forgets training uniform, not practicing regularly are all examples of which roadblock ? External Roadblocks or Inte
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

I would say internal roadblocks because self doubt is in the mind, and not practicing regularly seems to be channeling from the self doubt.

Forgetting training uniform could be caused by this person having things on their mind (self doubt).

I hope this helps

Mr. Ferguson startled the class by requiring (it, them) to write short autobiographical poems.
lozanna [386]
The answer to that question is them. The class is a collective noun for a bunch of students that are learning from a teacher. Since we are referring to people, then we cannot use it because the noun it is used for inanimate objects. Pronouns like them are used to refer to people
