Review the passage. When the tangled cobweb pulls The cornflower’s cap awry, And the lilies tall lean over the wall To bow to th

e butterfly, It is July. Which best identifies and interprets the device underlined in the passage? It is an appeal to hearing, as a cap is an outdated term for a hearing aide. It is personification, as a cobweb is described as "pulling" and a cornflower is described as wearing a cap. It is a metaphor, as the cobweb actually represents the world the poet has created. It is an appeal to the reader's sense of touch, as one can almost feel the sticky fibers of the tangled cobweb.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: Okonkwo struggles with fear of becoming like his father, fear of looking weak, and fear of his children not becoming like him.

In pursuit of might, Okonkwo fails to notice that his society values wisdom as well, and even kindness—an utterly unmanly quality in his eye

Okonkwo is a self-made, well-respected member of the Umuofia clan. Though outwardly stern and powerful, much of his life is dictated by internal fear. His greatest, overwhelming worry is that he will become like his father – lazy, unable to support his family, and cowardly. Okonkwo considers many of his father’s characteristics to be feminine. Much of Okonkwo’s behavior results from a reactionary desire to be completely unlike his father. This means that Okonkwo attempts to work hard, provide for his family materially, be brave, and be masculine in every possible way. As a result, Okonkwo’s becomes successful in many ways – he becomes very wealthy, holds a high-ranked position in the community, has three wives, and is known for his skill as a wrestler and warrior. But he also tends toward emotions that are extreme, and his fear motivates him to take actions which are often unnecessary and ultimately destructive. His fear of being feminine leads him to assist in the murder of Ikemefuna whom he loved, to beat his wives, be emotionally distant from his children, and to disown his oldest son

Slaughterhouses do occasionally reclaim their lost property, says Dobnik, but returning animals are "rare" (8). Why would that l
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Slaughterhouses are used for meat production, otherwise known as butchery.

Explanation:

Returning an animal to a previous owner is unlikely given the purpose of slaughterhouses. Those who work in slaughterhouses make their living from butchering animals, which they typically pay money for. Returning an animal would be losing profits, both from the initial investment and the future retail.
