No Night is Too Long– Barbara Vine

" Writing this down won’t stop the letters — there have been three more since the one from San Francisco — but it may help to lay his ghost. The dreams, after all, come only by night, when I’m in bed asleep. His ghost appears to me everywhere and at any time. He, it, whatever it is, a figment of my brain, the creature of my guilt, he never shows himself to me directly but always in the corner of my eye, on the edge of my vision, or very distantly as it might be along the beach by a breakwater or across the High Street, reflected obliquely in a shop window"

Methinks I see thee, now thou art so low,
As one dead in the bottom of a tomb."
A. foreshadowing
B. hyperbole
C. understatement
D. metaphor

Answers

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The answer is an understatement because understatement is the presentation of something being smaller or less important than how it is and God which is considered as a supreme or mighty being in Christianity is being portrayed through comparison to a dead person in a tomb, and this degrades Him resulting in an understatement.

Answer:

After the school counselors had completed the presentation on high school courses and transcripts, I requested a minute's interview with one of them. 8th grade would soon be some foregone epoch in my life, a discarded fragment of my existence. At that instant, I had a pressing question concerning summer courses.

"I should like to engage in academics over the summer. I intend to take an advancement course in geometry... and one in biology. Who should I contact for further information?" I enquired. I gave a brief smile, but the counselor merely scowled in response.

"That will be too much for you," she responded scornfully. "We firmly discourage any such-"

My heart sank in disappointment, but I would not be deterred.

So I’m Jamaican and Hispanic (I don’t think that really matters) but Ive grown up in a Hispanic household for a long time and I haven’t been really exposed to my Jamaican side that much. What should I include about the BLM project? Like All Black Lives Matter or Including examples from slavery?

Answers

Answer: examples of slavery would help provide a point of view many people don't see, as well as all black lives matter. Mention how African Americans have been important in the history of the world.

Why is monitoring heart rate a common technique to determine exercise intensity?

Answers

Answer:

The harder and more intensive your exercise is, there needs to be a proportional amount of oxygen-rich blood circulating to supply your body with the needed oxygen to continue.

Explanation:

As you exercise, you start to use more oxygen because your body is doing more work. As you use your muscles, there is an acid called lactic acid that starts to form on your muscles that causes the burning sensation you feel. The harder your exercise , the more of lactic acid there will be. The oxygen helps to clear out this lactic acid, while still supplying your body with the oxygen it requires to all body parts so they can function properly.

Now that you know what a character trait is Think of what it isn’t list as many non examples as you can

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Character traits are characteristics of the personality of an individual that is maintained from childhood to adulthood, in most cases, or that can be developed throughout life, even in unconscious ways. This was explained by Freud, who believed that happy and even traumatic experiences that occurred in childhood could trigger traits in the individual that would be maintained until adulthood, even if the individual did not remember these experiences.

Examples of character traits are courage, patience, aggressiveness, honesty, among others.

Manias, preferences, personal tastes, ways of walking and speaking, being studious, among others, are not examples of character traits.

!200 words!

Answers

Answer:

War is tragic, tribulatious, and cataclysmic; it should not be glorified; however, we should not forget the various and steep sacrifices that have been made for war. Memorials are there to honor the fallen and all those who have given a part of themselves to the occasion. Thus, no, these monuments and memorials that were enacted to honor those in war, do not contradict the message of "Grass," for it is there to bring light on the fact of how catastrophic war is.

“It’s comforting to know Chris was here,” Billie explains, “to know for certain that he spent time beside this river, that he stood on this patch of ground. So many places we’ve visited in the past three years—we’d wonder if possibly Chris had been there. It was terrible not knowing—not knowing anything at all.

“Many people have told me that they admire Chris for what he was trying to do. If he’d lived, I would agree with them. But he didn’t, and there’s no way to bring him back. You can’t fix it. Most things you can fix, but not that. I don’t know that you ever get over this kind of loss. The fact that Chris is gone is a sharp hurt I feel every single day. It’s really hard. Some days are better than others, but it’s going to be hard every day for the rest of my life.”

Abruptly, the quiet is shattered by the percussive racket of the helicopter, which spirals down from the clouds and lands in a patch of fireweed. We climb inside; the chopper shoulders into the sky and then hovers for a moment before banking steeply to the southeast. For a few minutes the roof of the bus remains visible among the stunted trees, a tiny white gleam in a wild green sea, growing smaller and smaller, and then it’s gone. (203)

Stop and frisk was designed to decrease crime and thereby increase peace in communities. Do you believe that stop and frisk succeeds or fails to promote peace? Why?

Answers

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

It fails.

It can be inferred that in a questionable situation an officer would likely frisk a suspect to ensure they are unarmed, however, in some cases where police have taken advantage of their position of power, women have been "frisked" even when it was uncalled for and they were quite clearly unarmed. In most cases it may make sense to frisk them, but not in all cases and thus it fails to keep the peace because it causes more crime through corruption of power.

Answer:

It succeeds.

Explanation:

“Police may stop a person if they have a reasonable suspicion that the person has committed or is about to commit a crime, and may frisk the suspect for weapons if they have reasonable suspicion that the suspect is armed and dangerous, without violating the Fourth Amendment prohibition on unreasonable searches and seizures.”

They only do this with sufficient cause. If a police officer sees a man that looks like he has a gun on his hip, he may stop and frisk him. This is what the above statement pertains to. When Liberals want to take away our American right to have guns, they are also going against what they think is police brutatlity and racial injustice when a police officer may stop and frisk someone. A house divided against itself can not stand, so when we are fighting against our police, and what they do, and then we are fighting against crime and trying to take away our guns so we cannot protect ourselves, isn't that just plain foolish? We cannot stand if we do not stand together.  

I hope this makes sense, and I hope this helps. Thanks! BRAINLIEST PLEASE!
