WHAT IS THE TONE OF THIS POEM?

Let them be as flowers,
always watered, fed, guarded, admired,
but harnessed to a pot of dirt.

I'd rather be a tall, ugly weed,
clinging on cliffs, like an eagle
wind-wavering above high, jagged rocks.

To have broken through the surface of stone,
to live, to feel exposed to the madness
of the vast, eternal sky.
To be swayed by the breezes of an ancient sea,
carrying my soul, my seed,
beyond the mountains of time or into the abyss of the bizarre.

I'd rather be unseen, and if
then shunned by everyone,
than to be a pleasant-smelling flower,
growing in clusters in the fertile valley,
where they're praised, handled, and plucked
by greedy, human hands.

I'd rather smell of musty, green stench
than of sweet, fragrant lilac.
If I could stand alone, strong and free,
I'd rather be a tall, ugly weed.

What two words best describe the tone of the poem?

a
Somber and serious
b
Fearful and happy
c
Threatening and optimistic
d
Condescending and passionate

Answer 1

how can visualizing help you understand how a character perseveres through a difficult situations?

Answers

Answer: Sensory details help with understanding a characters struggles and how they are persevering.

Explanation:

By visualizing, you are able to create sensory details so the reader can really connect and understand what a character is doing to persevere. This can apply to a struggle, and the character is being visualized persevering through the difficult situation, or anything in general with a character basically.

Example: The harsh, dark rain felt like bullets against her skin as she slowly trudged through the swamp.

It is easy to describe her struggles and you can understand that she is strongly persevering through the swamp, with imagery such as "Harsh dark rain" and "bullets through her skin"

Hope this helped.

Will anyone be able to check for grammatical errors and give an opinion on the essay itself? write about the following topic: some people believe that allowing children to make their own cholces on everyday matters (such as food, clothes and entertainment) is likely to result in a society of individuals who only think about their own wishes. other people believe that it is important for children to make decisions about matters that affect them. discuss both these views and give your own opinion. —— nowadays, in this busy and fast developing world teaching children from an early age to cope with their own decisions (such as food, clothes etc.) and then take the coincidences after that is something that a lot of people believe that it is important for them. on the other hand other people think that it might end up in a society of humans who put their wishes before anyone else's. but which one of these views will predominate? firstly, the people who allow their children to make their own decisions are the people who everyone should look up to. it is important to let your children learn from the mistakes their make. the parents can not be with them all the time every day and for that reason, teaching them to deal with their decisons or even problems will them in the future. of course, there are always disadvantages such as some people may really forget about that their children will need them at a certain point in life and may loose connection whit them. but that is why it should have that moderately path, where kids will make their own decisions but will feel comfortable to always ask for a advice tueur parents. on the other hand, there are and the second type of parents which think that too much individualism is not good. it really depends on the parents how they will teach their children to carry on with the independence they have. a lot of them might forget that they are still kids and will need and advices from time to time and because of that the parents turn their kids in individuals who only think about their own wishes due to the fact that they are let on their own and have to cope with everyone and everything by themselves. in conclusion, i think that the best decision someone can make is to look up to the first type of parents. that way they will be able to train their children to become independent people who will respect the wishes of others and they will be able to cope with their decisions in the future when they need it.

I NEED AN ARGUMENTATIVE LETTER WITH EVIDENCE AGAINST SCHOOL DRESS CODE(not uniforms) WILL GIVE BRAINIEST

Answers

Answer:

this will not be as good but feel free to modify (i wrote this in like 10 minutes)

Explanation:

   Plenty of schools around the world have dress codes. Although dress codes will guide students to wear appropriate clothing, dress codes can also be a pain to students in the mornings.

    Many scholars wear inappropriate clothing to schools. Dress codes have been made to prevent this from happening. Although dress codes have their own perks of not having students wear inappropriate clothing, they can make students' mornings more uncomfortable. Waking up early in the mornings can be difficult for some, now imagine that with having to measure out clothing. Students who can't afford to clothe may need to just get dress coded. There are many solutions to avoid this problem in both ways.

      Uniforms have been going around schools. Although they may not satisfy every student's style, they do bring one solution to the struggles of mornings. Some teachers may find this a little bit easier to spot the trouble makers as well. They can easily spot the students not wearing the uniforms and dress code them, rather than trying to measure everything by eye.

      Dress codes can have their own perks of letting the students choose their own clothing with a bit of a guideline. Having to struggle in the morning to find clothes that fit the dress code standards can take up time and result in being late for school. Uniforms are one of many solutions to this problem. Although they do not give students much of a choice, they can solve the issue with both the students and teachers.
