Days Gone By

by James Whitcomb Riley



O the days gone by! O the days gone by!
The apples in the orchard, and the pathway through the rye;
The chirrup of the robin, and the whistle of the quail
As he piped across the meadows sweet as any nightingale;
5 When the bloom was on the clover, and the blue was in the sky,
And my happy heart brimmed over in the days gone by.




In the days gone by, when my naked feet were tripped
By the honey-suckle’s tangles where the water-lilies dipped,
And the ripples of the river lipped the moss along the brink
10 Where the placid-eyed and lazy-footed cattle came to drink,
And the tilting snipe stood fearless of the truant’s wayward cry
And the splashing of the swimmer, in the days gone by.




O the days gone by! O the days gone by!
The music of the laughing lip, the luster of the eye;
15 The childish faith in fairies, and Aladdin’s magic ring—
The simple, soul-reposing, glad belief in everything,—
When life was like a story, holding neither sob nor sigh,
In the golden olden glory of the days gone by.

In “Days Gone By,” how does the second stanza help develop the theme?

A.
by describing a peaceful setting

B.
by using imagery that shows a struggle

C.
by having the cattle represent people

D.
by making the speaker seem unhappy

advantages of student sports competitions be held at the national level.

Answers

When children and teens participate in group competitions and activities, they learn skills that apply to opportunities both on and off the playing field. Through competition, teens establish a solid work ethic that values practice and rewards determination. teenagers enhance skills in self-reliance and team interaction, and develop new structures of self-motivation, discipline, and personal responsibility.

While teens competing in sports are certainly exposed to opportunities to enhance their personal and social development, athletes competing in public school sports also expand their physical abilities and fitness levels. Today’s teens are exposed to an array of entertainment avenues that may foster laziness, such as television, video games, and other media devices, but the traditional experience of sports, exercise, and kinesthetic activities help boost teens’ minds and bodies. Involvement in sporting activities keeps children moving and engaged physically, vital for their overall health and well-being.

Which of the following sentences is complex?

Danny and Erica went for a bike ride.
Danny and Erica rode their bikes down the trail, through the woods, and along the riverbank.
After Danny and Erica rode their bikes throughout the countryside, they went back to Erica’s house and had some cool lemonade.
Danny and Erica rode their bikes again the next day.

Answers

Answer:

The sentence that is complex is:

C. After Danny and Erica rode their bikes throughout the countryside, they went back to Erica's house and had some cool lemonade.

Explanation:

A complex sentence is formed by joining an independent clause to a dependent or subordinate one. An independent clause is able to stand alone as a sentence because it can convey a complete thought on its own. A dependent clause on the other hand, cannot do that. Alone, it sounds incomplete.

The sentence "After Danny and Erica rode their bikes throughout the countryside, they went back to Erica's house and had some cool lemonade" is an example of a complex sentence. The independent clause is:

- they went back to Erica's house and had some cool lemonade

The dependent clause is the one beginning with a subordinating conjunction (after), and which cannot stand alone as a sentence:

- After Danny and Erica rode their bikes throughout the countryside

Help!!!!!!! What happens next after the great depression? three answers please!

Answers

Answer: Here are a few pieces of evidence for some information you might need.

The New Deal was a set of domestic policies enacted under President Franklin D. Roosevelt that dramatically expanded the federal government’s role in the economy in response to the Great Depression.

Historians commonly speak of a First New Deal (1933-1934), with the “alphabet soup” of relief, recovery, and reform agencies it created, and a Second New Deal (1935-1938) that offered further legislative reforms and created the groundwork for today’s modern social welfare system.

It was the massive military expenditures of World War II, not the New Deal, that eventually pulled the United States out of the Great Depression.

BRUTUS. Cassius,

But let not therefore my good friends be grieved
Among which number, Cassius, be you one

Forgets the shows of love to other men.
