Answer:

Tense: Past Continuous Tense
Structure: Simple sentence
2. We went to the cinema last week.
Tense: Past indefinite tense
Structure: Simple sentence
3. Yesterday at 9 o'clock, he was sitting in front of his computer.
Tense: Past continuous tense
Structure: simple sentence.
4. The Girl Pirate steered out of the way just in time.
Tense: Past indefinite tense
Structure: Simple sentence
5. My brother has been eating apples.
Tense: Present perfect continuous tense.
Structure: simple sentence.
Explanation:
The first sentence is written in the past continuous tense as the use of 'was + V1 + ing' denotes that specific action was taking place in the past. It is a simple sentence as there is only a subject that is being discussed.
The next sentence employs past indefinite tense which is reflected by the use of 'V2' to signify that the action occurred at a specific time in the past. It is also a simple sentence as there is just one clause.
The third sentence uses 'past continuous tense' as it denotes that the action was in progress at a specific time in the past. It follows a simple sentence structure despite the comma after the introductory phrase as a single subject is being discussed here.
The fourth sentence uses 'past indefinite tense' as it involves V2 i.e. 'steered' to denote a past action. It involves a simple sentence structure as the single subject is followed by the predicate.
The last sentence is framed in the present perfect continuous tense which is reflected by the use of 'has been + V1 + ing' to denote that the particular action began in past and is in progress now. It also follows a simple sentence structure as the only subject 'My brother' is being talked about here.

Answer:
burthen - meaning, weight, or significance
recompence - reward
loon - a silly of foolish person
rill - a small stream
measure - the rhythm of a piece of poetry or music
Explanation:
Burthen is an archaic form of spelling "burden". When we think of a burden, we think of something heavy, difficult to carry around. Therefore, burthen means "weight"
Recompence is more commonly spelled "recompense" nowadays. It is the same as reward.
A loon is a foolish or silly person. We can think of a "loony", a crazy or silly person, someone who does not think or see things the way others do.
A rill is, by definition, a small stream or brook. There is not much we can add here.
Finally, measure refers to the rhythm of a poem or a piece of music. We commonly refer to it by "meter" or simply "rhythm", depending on what we mean.

What is a pronoun?Pronouns are words or groups of words that can be used in place of nouns or noun phrases in grammar and linguistics. Since pronouns serve so many different cross-linguistic purposes, several current theorists disagree with the conventional idea that they belong to the same class as other components of speech. "You" is a pronoun that can be used in either the single or plural form.
Personal and possessive pronouns, reciprocal and reflexive pronouns, demonstrative pronouns, relative and interrogative pronouns, and indefinite pronouns are some of the subtypes. Pronoun use frequently incorporates anaphora, in which the pronoun's meaning is based on an antecedent. A "pronominal" is the name of the adjective that goes with a "pronoun."

In the poem, the child is separated from his parents and other relatives which becomes significant in the poem and it depicts the harshness of Fate that separated a child from his parents and family.
Explanation:
'The Parrot in the Cage' is a poem written by Lekhnath Paudyal. The poem was written during the reign of the Rana in Nepal. The Rana regime destituted Nepalese from their freedom and happiness.
The poem is usually interpreted to have two speakers, the poet himself and the parrot in the cage. Both the speakers depict the difficulties that they have faced in the poem. The difficulties that the speaker have faced in the poem is the harsh realities of human life. During the reign of the Rana, people of Nepal were deprived from enjoying freedom, justice, and happiness. The poet is separated from his parents and other relatives which signfies not only separation from culture but also spiritual separation.
In the poem, the parent and child relation is significant. The child is separated from his parents and other relatives in the poem. This separation and relationship is signficant as it resembles the loss of freedom, of the child, to roam around freely and feed on the wild fruits. The speaker wonders that his parents must be beating their breasts due to the separation. They must be mourning the separation. It shows the situation of the Rana reign in Nepal when families were separated from each other.

Why were meter and alliteration important poetic devices to 14th century
poets?
A. They helped poems stand out from others.
B. They lengthened the lines on the page.
C. They simulated natural conversation.
D. They made poems easier to memorize.
SUBMIT
The correct answer is D. They made poems easier to memorize.
Explanation:
In poems, alliteration refers to using words with the same consonant sound in a verse or multiple verses. This device makes the poem more memorable or easy to remember as the repetition forms a sound pattern. Also, by remembering which consonant sound is repeated it is easy to remember the words of each verse. Similarly, the use of the meter or a specific structure of verses (number of syllables in each verse and organization of stressed/unstressed syllables) makes the poem to be predictable and easy to remember. Moreover, these two features were more commonly used in poems during the 14th and 15th centuries as in this way the audience could better remember poems.

Explanation:
1. Read the short personal essay by George Orwell.2. Answer the following questions. _How are the Europeans presented in this story? What are they like?_How are the Burmese presented? what are they like? _who do you empathize the most with? _ Describe the presence of prejudice and racism in the story events as well as Orwell's narration(wording choice).
Answer:
"Shooting an Elephant"
The Europeans are presented as imperialists who think that they are in control not knowing that they have lost their will power to the natives, whom they think they dominate. The Europeans are described like masked people who have grown to resemble the masks they wear with ingrained habits and prejudices.
The Burmese are presented as idle, idiotic, and lacking the coercive power necessary to be in obvious control of their lives, especially since they have no physical weapons. However, what they lack in physical weapons, they possess in abundance with the power of the will. This implies that their lack of physical weapons does not make them powerless in the real sense. They have will. With it, they control the Europeans who weld physical power.
I empathize mostly with the Europeans. Their portrayal by George Orwell is very sympathetic. By trying to impose their authority on others, they limit their ability to even control their own lives. They must dance to the music of the crowd because of the expectations placed on them by the natives. The same is true of all rulers who have refused to embrace leadership principles, thinking that they are in charge of the people, not realizing that it is the people that control them with their crowd expectations.
Europeans are not accepted by others. Europeans do not accept others. Each tribe thinks highly of themselves and belittles the others. But, we are all human beings, created in God’s image and likeness. The moment we overcome our prejudices, it is the same moment that we are liberated to fulfil God’s mandate, “to exercise dominion over the earth.” This dominion is not the domination of other people, but the dominion of the elements that make up the earth, the forces, and the evils that attempt to take over the earth that God has created for the welfare of human beings. We must collaborate, cherish each other, and find joy in our diversity as humans. We must act together in love. Conclusively, George Orwell’s observation is true of all human beings, “when the white man (read, “any class of humanity”) turns tyrant, it is his own freedom that he destroys.”
Explanation:
George Orwell's 1936 short story titled: "Shooting an Elephant" describes his experiences as a police officer in Burma. In it, he denounces British imperialism as lacking common sense. Europeans are made a laughing stock of by the natives they try to rule. According to George Orwell, Imperialism and colonialism are evil as no good has come from the imposition of another's will on others.

Which of these excerpts from "Once in a lifetime" by Jhumpa Lahiri most clearly exemplifies diversity within socioeconomic status?
The correct answer is 2. "First class!" my mother exclaimed, with an intake of breath. "How did you end up there?" ...
Explanation:
In excerpt two, there is a clear contrast between the mother of Hemma (female main character and narrator) who belongs to a middle or low socioeconomic status and the parents of the male character Kaushik. This is shown by the reaction of the mother of Hemma who is shocked by the extravagance of flying in first class. This is shown in "First class!... How did you end up there?" that shows the surprise of the mother and the answer of the father in "It could become a terrible habit" that shows how proud he is of this event. Thus, this excerpt shows the diversity within socioeconomic status by explaining the shock and surprise of Hemma mother to the fact another family flew in first class.
