English

stepan [7]2 years ago

1. The poet is expressing the feeling when you feel like you want something so bad and life doesn’t give it to you. You get sad and feel frustrated and confused but in reality, life is protecting you from something that could potentially hurt you.

2. “because chocolate makes dogs very sick
my dog does not understand this” and “When I want something
with my whole being, and the universe withholds it
from me. I hope the universe thinks to herself
Silly girl. She thinks this is what she wants
but she does not understand how it will hurt.” are some.

3. i find the phrasing of the quote “i hope the universe thinks to herself: silly girl she thinks this is what she wants but she does not understand how it will hurt” and strongly like it for multiple reasons. Firstly, notice how the poet refers to the universe as a “she”. The poet uses personification to express how they believe the universe is protecting them, just like a person would. Also i like the universe’s thoughts because i feel like the way it is written the reader is invited to connect it to whatever situation they may relate to.

5. I wish people would understand that sometimes things don’t work out the way you thought they would; and that’s okay. It’s okay that you didn’t get that job you wanted or that you broke up with your partner. Sad things happen in life all the time and despite them being sad, most of the time they happen to help us learn and grow as people. And, as the poet says, sometimes things have a reason for not happening. For all you know, your greatest wish could be extremely harmful to you.

Is it legal for a man to marry his widows sister?
Bas_tet [7]
Well, <span>if a man has a widow then he must be dead, so there isn't really too much of a legal issue. However, you could argue that it's possible for a man to marry his widow's sister. Imagine a man marrying a woman, separating from her, and then re-marrying his first wife's sister.</span>

Hope I helped!

Choose the sentence that is written correctly.
ioda
The answer is B because it puts a coma in the correct spot to pause between the first half of the sentence and the second. The others either randomly placed a period, using the wrong word choices, or made it a run on sentence. :)

How is conformity and individuality shown in "no gumption"
Vesna [10]

Individuality has been shown in "No Gumption" by showing the traits and the characteristics of Russell Baker that his mother realized which made him a writer. One of that situation was when he was eleven years old, he brought a text graded with A and his mother decided he could be a writer

<u>Explanation:</u>

"No Gumption" is a chapter taken from autobiography of Russell Baker where he tells how for his mother he did not have gumption at all, he was a shy boy who had to help his family in a difficult time, after his father's death. In this chapter, the writer is in the obligation of selling magazines to support his family, but the decision was made by his mother, because he was the man of the family and he was superposed to bring some money.

Unfortunately he was not like his younger sister Doris, who was intelligent and diligent. He had this job during a time, but he did not succeed, he did not feel comfortable ringing doors, actually, he felt scared of this. Finally, when he was eleven years old, he brought a text graded with A and his mother decided he could be a writer, and this time he liked this decision, because writers did not have to sell, writers did not have to ring doors.
