What does the line "So dawn goes down to day" in Frost's poem indicate?
the speaker's obsession with sunlight
the passage of time
a change in the poem's point of view
the end of the poem
Answer: the passage of time
Explanation:
The whole idea of this poem by Robert Frost titled, ''Nothing Gold Can Stay'' is that as time goes by, beautiful things will eventually wither, decay and die so it is best to enjoy them whilst one still can.
The alliteration: "So dawn goes down to day", represent that passage of time because as the hours in a day go by, dawn eventually becomes day signifying that time has gone by.

Explanation:
Strong blog post, about (Poverty or Prejudice) minimum 350 words
Answer:“Poverty is not a major factor in cause of crime.” For the author, crime was simply a matter of personal choice. Such logic is seductive and piggybacks on the US ideology of individual economic responsibility. Poverty becomes something one chooses to move from or not. In such a world, failure to achieve is viewed as the responsibility of the individual.
This is poverty as moral failure and justifies for many any personal prejudice against the poor, including the nonsense that poverty does not impact crime. Such ideas about poverty are often based on personal stories about people who rose up and broke out of poverty. Anecdote is not good science; it’s more like myth-making. Anthropological research into poverty highlights a diversity of experiences among people classified as poor—including great resilience by those who do not escape it.
And while there is certainly academic debate about whether poverty causes crime, it has been proven that many conditions inherent in poverty are risk factors for criminal behaviour. Anthropologists do not document poverty as an economic condition to be measured. Rather they describe poverty as a qualitative social relation of multi-dimensional deprivation. That means poverty affects the quality of a person’s life not just in terms of income but rights, opportunities, capabilities and entitlements.
Yes, poverty doesn’t affect every person in exactly the same way but poverty does impact every person’s ability to achieve his or her full human potential and the World Bank’s 2001 report on poverty said just that.
People living in poverty are more likely to live or come from broken homes, experience low levels of education, suffer high rates of mortality, lack support, possess weak social networks, endure poor health conditions, including poor nutrition that effects many different abilities. They are also likely to be excluded from market participation and services.
Calling all people who live in poverty “vagabonds” is not only prejudice and deliberately misleading, it suggests poverty is just about being hungry and needing a job, and there is no structural impediment to breaking the cycle. People can come forward with their examples of individual success stories but it doesn’t change the fact that while some individuals break the cycle, the group “poor” on the whole cannot break the cycle and capitalism is designed to function in that precise way.
Capitalism requires an underclass, a poor, an industrial reserve army of labour, to do all the low-paying, awful jobs. That is a fact. Great wealth was, and is, accumulated by dispossession and it produces/d great poverty. Capitalism is a zero-sum game. There must be winners and losers. This isn’t a fun ride for everyone; this is neoliberal 21st century capitalism and it’s not that different in its punishments to late 19th century capitalism.
In this sense, poverty is a consequence of historical relationships that include white supremacy, racial hierarchy, underdevelopment, the creation of laws, class warfare, urbanism, transnational geopolitics, and how such big processes made and make the world. Poverty is not an abstraction one can personally choose to overcome or not. Rather, poverty is about social processes and the effects those processes have on productive people.
Let’s end with a simple question. What came first: poverty or the culture of poverty? Anthropologist Phillipe Bourgois spent years living and researching drugs dealers in the ghettos of Puerto Rico. He noted that rather than guns and drug culture being the culture of the ghetto, the ghetto and its poverty should be understood in historical and social context as the reaction to particular social and economic configurations in the colonial relationship between the USA and Puerto Rico.
A similar argument can be made about T&T. Yes, a culture of poverty can lead to criminality and anti-social behaviour, but we should also understand how the historical circumstances of our colonial relationship gave us the poverty that in turn constantly produces/d the culture of poverty we now denigrate and fear.
Put bluntly, blaming the poor for living in poverty rather than fixing the society that produces/d poverty is a massive blind spot found among some who do not live in poverty. It helps them feel successful and accomplished—superior. It’s a hold over of the divide-and-conquer politics of colonialism and racist at heart.
Poverty and the many wider socio-cultural issues, like crime, that it impacts, exist (and always will) because of the type of society we’ve all built, not because of the failure of individuals to personally overcome poverty.

Answer:
When you were younger, did you ever ask your parents to drive you to your destinations, however they would say no? Growing up, children wait and wait until the day comes when they are finally sixteen and driving. They can now take themselves wherever they choose without relying on someone else. The law is deciding to increase the minimum driving age to eighteen. If the age does change, teenagers will have to wait longer until they are able to drive on their own. It can also affect many things that have already been established. Teen life, parent life, and teenagers’ independence will be greatly affected.
Teenagers benefit from driving at sixteen. Getting a driver’s license early allows teens to work, enjoy extracurricular activities, and gain experience to prepare them for life after school. Teenagers who are employed learn how to function in a workplace. Employers prefer potential workers who have experience. Working gives teens a small fluid income. Teenagers who earn money learn valuable skills of saving money and personal finance. Along with having the ability to drive to work, teens with licenses can drive to extracurricular activities. Clubs and sports allow kids to discover and develop talents and interests. Adolescents find future careers in extracurricular activities. In addition, teens gain independence and life experience from driving. If the minimum driving age were to be raised to eighteen, many high school students would not be able to drive before they go to college. Driving is necessary for college. In order for college students to travel to classes, jobs, and housing, driving is a needed skill. The minimum driving age should not be changed.
While this issue affects teens, it also has an effect on the parents. Parents welcome their children’s independence. However, they appreciate it for different reasons. First, it allows parents to spend more time at work without making plans for their kids. This is especially useful when students live outside the bus area. Parents should not need to use their entire lunch break to drive their children home. Another reason teenagers should be able to drive at sixteen is so they can arrive at their extra curricular activities whenever needed. It saves parents from taking time off work to drive their children back and forth from school activities. If teenagers are able to drive, they can pick up younger siblings as well as drive themselves home. Finally, driving allows teenagers to transport themselves to and from jobs. Depending on the economic situation of the family, it could be helpful to have a small amount of easy income into the family for support. Teenagers who drive benefit their entire families.
Parents, lawmakers, and even teenagers believe it is safer to wait until the age of eighteen. The opposition considers waiting until eighteen will teach teens responsibility and lower the chance of risk while driving. In driver's education, students are taught that during the first month of owning their license, new drivers are three times more likely to get into an accident. By waiting, new drivers will have more practice and experience driving. Sixteen year olds are more reckless and ill-prepared. At the age of eighteen, teenagers are more responsible and ready for maturity as they have finished their high school years and are going into college.
Although the opposition believes young drivers are hazardous, the scenario would be similar to if teens had to wait until the age of eighteen. Due to waiting two more years for a license, teens will be restricted from traveling, causing a heavy reliance upon parents. Parents or guardians will have to leave their own occupation in order to help the child reach their destination. Parental jobs would become strained or even lost. Opportunities to make more money would disappear, hurting families’ incomes and their financial status.
In conclusion, the minimum driving age should not be raised from the age of sixteen. The effect on teens and their families would be too harsh. The independence that teens gain from driving at an early age allows them to obtain experience in the workplace and on the road. Furthermore, shortening their time on the road may result in more crashes. Parents of teens should not be obligated to drive them to every after-school event, every weekend game, or to work. In order for teens to learn the skills necessary for life after high school, the driving age needs to remain the same.

Which sentence is an example of precise language??
Answer:
The third one
Explanation:
Used words like "dug", "icy", and "all my strength".
irritable or short tempered
Answer:
Well, irritable means you are like grumpy. Short tempered means you get made easily always, like a short fuse! It depends on what and why you need it. The less "harsh" term is irritable. The more harsh term is short tempered.
Explanation:
To put it in a better view, when you are grumpy, or irritable, when you are hungry or sleepy, you get mad or frustrated quickly. But, when you are short tempered, you have trouble keeping your anger down. This is when you have a "short fuse" they like to say. Now these may look similar, but they are much different. The only common thing is you get angry, or upset real easy. The causes are much different. However, you can prevent one, irritable, by getting the right sleep, and eating a balanced meals! Sometimes you need practice or a counselor most of the time when dealing with a short temper . Not always though, friends could also help, along with family!

Read the excerpt from Homecoming.
At half-past eight, Dicey herded everybody back into the mall, to use the bathrooms they had found earlier. Later, Sammy and Maybeth fell asleep easily, curled up along the back seat. James moved up to the front with Dicey. Dicey couldn't see how they were both to sleep in the front seat, but she supposed they would manage it. James sat stiffly, gripping the wheel. James had a narrow head and sharp features, a nose that pointed out, pencil-thin eyebrows, a narrow chin. Dicey studied him in the darkening car. They were parked so far from the nearest lamppost that they were in deep shadows.
With her brothers and sisters near, with the two youngest asleep in the back seat, sitting as they were in a cocoon of darkness, she should feel safe. But she didn't. Though it was standing still, the car seemed to be flying down a highway, going too fast. Even the dark inside of it was not deep enough to hide them. Faces might appear in the windows at any time, asking angry questions.
Based on the excerpt, which best describes Dicey’s mood?
A.She is very worried about what would happen to her family.
B.She is in denial about her family’s present circumstances.
C.She is trying to stay upbeat and carefree whenever possible.
D.She is having a hard time feeling safe in almost all situations.
Answer: D.She is having a hard time feeling safe in almost all situations
Explanation:
Based on the excerpted, Dicey’s mood was that she is having a hard time feeling safe in almost all situations.
We are told that even her brothers and sisters near, as they were in a cocoon of darkness, she still didn't feel safe.

why are books obsolete today in 4 sentences
Answer:
See explanation!
Explanation:
Books are becoming obsolete due to the constant growth in technology. Children and adults alike are choosing to spend their time on the internet as opposed to reading books. This has caused potential authors to become discouraged from pursuing a career in writing, leading to a decrease in the amount of books being published over time. Overall, books are becoming a medium of the past and an increase in reading is unlikely as long as technology continues to develop and advance in the future.

What is one disadvantage of using a poster to present the information in “Stop Germs! Wash Your Hands”?
Answer:
See explanation!
Explanation:
A disadvantage of using a poster would that it may, potentially, go unnoticed. For example, if a poster was hung up in the busy halls of a school, the students may not take the time to study it because they are in a hurry to get to class.
Furthermore, most handwashing education takes place among younger children, typically kindergarteners or 1st graders. If a poster was hung up in an elementary school with the goal of educating the younger kids, it may fail because many younger children do not know how to read yet. Hope this helps!
Answer:
to inform people of when, how, and why to wash their hands
Explanation:
most younger people should be more aware of this because when your young your immune system isnt fully developed and when you interact with door knobs/handles, controllers, etc. you are catching germs which is why it is important to always wash your hand before touching your mouth or face. so the answer is to inform people of when, how, and why to wash their hands
