"I have seen flocks streaming south..." A) These lines contain a hyperbole...The description of the birds stretching across the entire sky all day long is an over exaggeration of how many birds were actually flying south. While there may have been many, it would not have covered the whole sky, all day long.

Long Ago
by Sappho
Long ago beloved, thy memory, Atthis,
Saddens still my heart as the soft Æolic
Twilight deepens down on the sea, and fitful
Winds that have wandered
Over groves of myrtle at Amathonte
Waft forgotten passion on breaths of perfume.
Long ago, how madly I loved thee, Atthis!

Loved one, mine no more, who lovest another
More than me; the silent flute and the faded
Garlands haunt the heart of me thou forgettest,
Long since thy lover.

One does not need to brag to prove one is talented. It is better to fix problems than to talk about them. It is important to prepare for the future.
Answer:
It is better to fix problems than to talk about them.
Explanation:
In "Tangled Webs" we are introduced to Fyodor who states that he is looking for a magic amulet to solve his problem. Fyodor does not talk about this problem, nor explain what it is, but we know that he is acting to solve it. In this case, we can see how proactive Fyodor is, because instead of spending time and energy talking about his problems, he strives to solve them without needing to comment or talk about it.
Why do you think Shakespeare wanted to tell his audience the story of Julius Caesar?
Answer:
One of the reasons was to show that history repeats itself. The queen of England had no heirs and neither did Julius Caesar. Shakespeare was trying to say that power can make people act differently than they usually would. Some scholars believe he wrote the play partially to express his worry that Queen Elizabeth I's impending death could bring about civil war to their country.

compare the relation between environment
and development *
.
Answer: The relationship between the environment and economic development may be accessed from two different points of view. One point of view is that factors like political climate, governmental policies and culture in the environment affects economic development. A second viewpoint is the manner in which the activities associated with economic development affect the environment.Environment and economic development are linked in the sense that the factors in place in the environment have a huge impact on the rate of economic development for a region. A country with a politically unstable reputation will not be able to attract necessary investors and businesses from interested investors both within and outside the country. A local investor with the resources to establish a business may prefer to take his or her money elsewhere, to a country with a reasonably stable government. This lack of investment by entrepreneurs is due to the fact that there is no guarantee of any security for their investments. Lack of security also means that the business will not flourish in the way it would in a country with a stable government.

Select THREE pieces of evidence from "Ted's Champion" that supports the correct
answer to Part A.
1. But you're in school must of the year, and a horse doesn't eat only in summertime.
2. So what I suggest, Teddy, is that you do some thinking and figure pit what you can do
about this situation.
3. Over the next few weeks, Ted visited every local store in search of work.
4. He inquired about washing cars and walking dogs, but by the end of the month Ted had no
job offers or any way to earn extra money.
5. As a small child, Ted had been delighted when Mrs. Saunders let him pick out a few apples
and carry them home in his cap.
6. Mrs. Saunders brought Olly to the paddock and then let Ted into the kitchen, where the
clock read just seven a.m.
7. If Mrs. Saunders wanted him to harvest every bushel of apples her orchard produced, he
wouldn't mind one bit.
Answer: yes
Explanation:
Over the next few weeks, Ted visited every local store in search of work, "He inquired about washing cars and walking dogs, but by the end of the month Ted had no job offers or any way to earn extra money. and "If Mrs. Saunders wanted him to harvest every bushel of apples her orchard produced, he wouldn't mind one bit." Hence, option C, D and F are correct.
What is the theme of Ted's champion?Sometimes an unexpected source provides the answer to a problem. Although Ted wishes to retain Olly, his father is unable to do so.
The section of the story's plot known as the resolution starts immediately before the climax and concludes with the final image or event. It is the turning moment in the story where the primary character's problem is resolved. Whether it is happy or unpleasant, the conclusion must put a stop to the main issue.
They begin by outlining the principal idea that the rest of the paragraph will support. Second, they place each paragraph in the argument's chronological order, which calls for a transition from the previous paragraph.
Thus, option C, D and F are correct.

Then, select any theme from the play and write two to three paragraphs analyzing how the theme is developed through the text.
The Crucible is set in a religious society, in which the congregation and the state are one, and the religion is a severe, stark type of Protestantism known as Puritanism.
What is account of The Crucible in society?On account of the religious idea of the general public, moral regulations and state regulations are indeed the very same sin and the situation with a singular's spirit are matters of public concern.
There is no space for deviation from normal practices, since any person whose private life doesn't adjust to the laid out moral regulations addresses a danger not exclusively to the public great yet in addition to the standard of God and genuine religion.
In Salem, everything and everybody has a place with one or the other God or Satan; disagree isn't just unlawful, it is related with evil movement.
This polarity capacities as the basic rationale behind the witch preliminaries. As Danforth says in Act III, an individual is either with this court or he should be represented a mark against it.
The preliminaries are a definitive articulation of bigotry and hanging is a definitive method for reestablishing the local area's virtue the preliminaries brand all friendly freaks with the impurity of villain love and hence require their disposal from the local area.
