What are three quotes in the poem "The Wanderer" that show isolation?
Answer:
1. “Often the lone-dweller awaits his own favor, the Measurer's mercy, though he must, mind-caring, throughout the ocean's way stir the rime-chilled sea with his hands for a long while, tread the tracks of exile— the way of the world is ever an open book.”
2. "Often alone, every daybreak, I must
bewail my cares. There is now no one living
to whom I dare articulate my mind’s grasp."
3. "just as I must fasten in fetters my heart’s ken, often wretched, deprived of my homeland, far from freeborn kindred"
Explanation:
"The Wanderer" is an old English poem, where the speaker is isolated, lonely and sad about this situation. The poem deals a lot with the theme of loneliness where the speaker rambles about the days when he was young and has the company of family and loved ones that left him happy and satisfied, but this is a happiness that has passed and that no longer exists more in his life. Now, alone, the speaker regrets and misses everything that he lived and that he no longer has access to.
Based on the text, what made "Goodnight Irene" Lead Belly's signature tune?
Answer:
A fixture on nationwide radio in the 1940s, Seeger also had a string of hit records during the early 1950s as a member of the Weavers, most notably their recording of Lead Belly's "Goodnight, Irene", which topped the charts for 13 weeks in 1950. Members of the Weavers were blacklisted during the McCarthy Era. In the 1960s, Seeger re-emerged on the public scene as a prominent singer of protest music in support of international disarmament, civil rights, counterculture, workers rights, and environmental causes.
A prolific songwriter, his best-known songs include "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" (with additional lyrics by Joe Hickerson), "If I Had a Hammer (The Hammer Song)" (with Lee Hays of the Weavers), "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine" (also with Hays), and "Turn! Turn! Turn!", which have been recorded by many artists both in and outside the folk revival movement. "Flowers" was a hit recording for the Kingston Trio (1962); Marlene Dietrich, who recorded it in English, German and French (1962); and Johnny Rivers (1965). "If I Had a Hammer" was a hit for Peter, Paul and Mary (1962) and Trini Lopez (1963) while the Byrds had a number one hit with "Turn! Turn! Turn!" in 1965.
Seeger was one of the folk singers responsible for popularizing the spiritual "We Shall Overcome" (also recorded by Joan Baez and many other singer-activists) that became the acknowledged anthem of the Civil Rights Movement, soon after folk singer and activist Guy Carawan introduced it at the founding meeting of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) in 1960. In the PBS American Masters episode "Pete Seeger: The Power of Song", Seeger said it was he who changed the lyric from the traditional "We will overcome" to the more singable "We shall overcome".

What does a media-literate person recognize about the media?
A. Media outlets are all attempting to control the minds of their
audiences.
B. Media messages are the only way people receive information.
C. The producers of media have goals they want their messages to
achieve.
D. People today can only get information from the mass media.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
C is the only logical statement. Although the understanding of this is uncommon today sadly, media companies are still corporations at the end of the day. The producer has a goal that the messages they send out are trying to achieve. These goals can be in the interest of the public or they may not be, but either way there are goals involved in media
[T]he husky can be characterized as pertinacious, deceitful, sharp, and, above all, well capable of deductive reasoning. He will unerringly connect cause with effect. He is also an actor of no mean ability, concealing the most nefarious designs under the innocent exterior of a new-born lamb.
Which best states the central idea in this excerpt?
Huskies are innocent, like lambs.
Huskies are clever and resourceful.
Huskies are mean and vicious.
Huskies are dependent on man.
Answer:
Huskies are clever and resourceful.
Explanation:
The given excerpt is from the book Husky - The Wolf Dog of the North written by Jack London. Here, London describes huskies as clever and resourceful, very intelligent animals. They may seem innocent like lambs, but they are not. They can be vicious, but that's not the central idea of this excerpt. Besides that, we can conclude that such an animal is not dependent on man.
Thus, the correct option is the second one.
Answer:
B. Huskies are clever and resourceful.

Through my binoculars, I viewed a group of wild animals in action. A pride of lions was sleeping when a small, yellow bus pulled up beside them. Tourists on a safari were packed into the bus like sardines in a can. Armed with cameras, they invaded the lions' territory, hoping to capture the perfect photograph. The crowd leaned out the windows, hooting and hollering, until the lions awoke. When the lions moved away, the bus rolled after them, relentlessly stalking the pride. One of the lions turned and roared to protect the young. This was greeted with cheers and a celebratory honk of the bus horn. The curious visitors observed the lions' routine for an hour before moving on. Leaving a cloud of dust, the bus headed away, taking the wild animals off to disturb someone else's home.
Review the following line from the text:
Armed with cameras and cell phones, they were invading the lions' territory in hopes of capturing the perfect photograph.

Answer:
Gretel's courage and the tale of the white bird is an example of parallel plot.
Explanation:
Gretel is always courageous enough to calm down and calm down Hansel, even though he knows they are in a difficult situation. As the birds ate the bread crumbs they put in the forest to get home, they were stuck in the forest and were hungry, but Gretel was brave enough to look for food and when they were almost giving up they heard a song of white birds, if it was a call to follow you. The bird song and Gretel's courage are an example of parallel plot.

Read the excerpt from "The Cat and the Moon."
The cat went here and there
And the moon spun round like a top,
And the nearest kin of the moon,
The creeping cat, looked up.
What is the meaning of the figurative language in line 2?
A. The moon is making the cat dizzy.
B. The moon is spinning on its axis.
C. The moon appears to be changing.
D. The moon is circling around the stars.

The answer is C. i took the test and it said C was right.
List some things in alexie's life that made a love of reading difficult to sustain. Consider things that worked against his learning and growth?
Answer:
Some of the things that made Alexie's love of reading difficult to sustain were poverty, social pressure, and lack of support at school.
Explanation:
The given question refers to the essay Superman and Me written by novelist Sherman Alexie. Alexie tells us about how he grew up in a family that struggled financially. His father loved to read, but new books weren't something they could afford. That's why Alexie grew up with books his father managed to get from the pawnshop, Goodwill, or by borrowing books from others. He didn't get to read books for children.
Another thing that made it difficult for Alexie was social pressure. He is Indian, and according to him, Indians weren't expected to excel at school, especially compared to other, non-Indian children. That's why we can say that he also lacked support at school.

And now let us see what has become of the wicked ogre, whom we left sleeping on the rock.
When he awoke he missed his seven-league boots, and set off for home very angry.
On his way he had to cross a bog; and, forgetting that he was no longer wearing his magic boots, he tried to cross it with one stride. But, instead, he put his foot down in the middle and began to sink. As fast as he tried to pull out one foot, the other sank deeper, until at last he was swallowed up in the black slime—and that was the end of him.
