Answer:

The main idea of this poem is that it is wise to forget about the bad memories in the past and move forward by doing good things. The poet's "soul is sailing through the sea,/But the Past is heavy and hindereth" him. If anyone considers the past as a burden- "Past is heavy", then it will trouble (as is found in the poem, "hindereth") and not let anyone do the works and achieve their dreams.

At first, his soul is sailing, which means that he is happy and relaxed but soon his past starts destroying his mood; he feels sad. However, the speaker, like Robert Frost's "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening", becomes positive and determined: "Old Past, let go, and drop i' the sea,/Till fathomless waters cover thee!" He wants to forget his past; he wants to think about the present moment, "I strive ahead" and the accomplishment in the future "The Day to find". He wants to find the "Day"; he has a goal in life; he wants to achieve his dream.

The barnacle attaches itself firmly and to rocks and the undersides of boats but the poet does not want to stick to one place like the barnacle. He wants to move; he wants to "strive ahead". Barnacle can also be compared to the 'past'. Barnacle sticks to rocks, similarly the poet's past sticks to his soul and he wants to be free from it. The poem slowly reaches a conclusion with the note of optimism as he says that the past is dead and he is alive, "For I am living but thou art dead." His soul is ecstatic again as he utters, "I needs must hurry with the wind/And trim me best for sailing."

1. The cars come cruising up Broadway. 2. The cars are glittering. 3. The cars are low and rumbling. Which choice below is the m
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The most concise way to combine these three sentences is:

d. Rumbling and low, the glittering cars come cruising up Broadway.

Explanation:

<u>Concise means brief. That is, we are supposed to find a way to convey the same message as the original sentences but with few words.</u>

First, we need to see what the sentences have in common, so that we can <u>eliminate repetition</u>. All three clearly speak of <u>"the cars"</u>, so we can <u>only mention that subject one</u>. Sentences 2 and 3 use the verb "are" followed by characteristics of the cars. <u>We can use those characteristics as adjectives, right before the subject, instead of as predicates. That way, we eliminate the excessive use of verbs in one sentence.</u> That is precisely what letter D does:

d. Rumbling and low, the glittering cars come cruising up Broadway.

I NEED HELP WITH THIS EASY QUESTION BUT I AM CONFUSED 20 POINTS TO THE FRIST ANSWER AND BRIANLIEST!!!
creativ13 [48]

Hello! I would say your answer is C, court opinion.

A court opinion is something used in court - it announces the final decision of the judge, as well as restates a lot of the important parts of the court case. This has to do with the law, so it should be very formal.

On the other hand, a letter to your grandmother should be casual as it is a personal matter. A newspaper article is going to be as formal, but it is not regarded with as high importance as something on the legal side. An instruction manual will also be formal, but, same reasoning as a newspaper article.

Hope this helps!

Aleksandr [31]

1. Beatrice says that the purpose of the simplicity in her town's design is to help them forget themselves. The Abnegation have dull hairstyles and wear dull clothes, and they only eat dull food. They try to keep everything dull because they believe that forgetting yourself makes it easier to be selfless, as vanity causes selfishness.

2. When Beatrice is talking to Caleb, she hears the whistle of a dauntless train in the distance,and says that "it sounds like the Dauntless, calling me to them." She realizes that she wants to be free, and that she doesn't want to give up the part of herself that makes her Beatrice Prior. From this you can infer that she will most likely transfer to Dauntless at the choosing ceremony.
