from poem "house with the grey gate", 'expecting someone; though no....for years.' who is expecting someone? why do you think nobody comes? do you think the person still has hopes? give reasons.
Answer:
The woman is expecting someone.
Explanation:
In the poem "House With The Grey Gate" by Tabhish Khar, the old woman is most probably expecting her children and grandchildren to visit her and her husband.
Nobody visits them because everyone has become so busy with thier own life and families. In fact, they are treated without any regard as they have grown old and fragile.

Which quotation states the claim of the passage?
“In order to create sugar, Europeans and colonists in the Americas destroyed Africans.”
“Each needed to vote, to speak out, to challenge the rules of crowned kings and royal princes.”
“Why did people keep speaking of equality while profiting from slaves?”
“The global hunger for slave-grown sugar led directly to the end of slavery.”
Answer:
D. “The global hunger for slave-grown sugar led directly to the end of slavery.”
Explanation:
"Sugar Changed the World: A Story of Magic, Spice, Slavery, Freedom and Science" is a book written by Marc Aronson and Marina Budhos.
This book gives an interesting insight on sugar and its impact on societies, from ancient to modern times.
This particular excerpt deals with the role sugar had in ending slavery which is quite ironic having in mind that the need for workers in the sugar factories was responsible for enslavement of millions of Africans from 16th till 18th century.
Working conditions in sugar factories and sugar plantations were inhuman because of the need to provide sugar to the growing market. The word about this reached the people in Europe where the wave of liberty and equality was spreading and culminated in French Revolution which ended slavery in French territories. Soon, other countries started following that example.

In selection 1 the author includes a claim that the wild horses have Spanish origins. Which statement best delineates the claim?
Answer:
The answer is B
Explanation:
The horses' Spanish orgins have been verified by DNA analysis, and this common ancestry helps support the argument that there is now a serious problem of inbreeding in the horse population.
The statement best delineates the claim is the horses' Spanish orgins have been verified by DNA analysis, and this common ancestry helps support the argument that there is now a serious problem of inbreeding in the horse population. Therefore, option B is correct.
What is DNA analysis ?DNA analysis is the term used to describe the interpretation of genetic sequences, which can be used for a variety of purposes. It can be used to identify a species, but it can also be used to distinguish individuals within a species.
DNA analysis remains the key to linking suspects to biological evidence and identifying individuals in crimes and disasters twenty years after its development. Another important application is the determination of paternity in custody and child support cases.
Mitochondrial DNA (mt DNA) analysis enables forensic laboratories to create DNA profiles from evidence that would otherwise be ineligible for RFLP or STR analysis. While RFLP and PCR techniques examine DNA extracted from a cell's nucleus.
Thus, option B is correct.

your question is incomplete,probably your question was In Selection 1, the author includes a claim that the wild horses have Spanish origins. Which statement best delineates the claim? Most evidence suggests that the horses are in fact a native species, supporting the argument that the horses must have actually been in North America for more than 11,000 years. The horses' Spanish orgins have been verified by DNA analysis, and this common ancestry helps support the argument that there is now a serious problem of inbreeding in the horse population. Although the horses' orgins are not actually certain, the claim supports the argument that the horses have been wild on the barrier island for a very long time and should be treated as a native species. There is no evidence to suggest that the horses are actually from Spain, which supports the argument that the horses are recent additions to the island and their range should be limited to protect endangered species.

PLS HELP ASAP
Answer:
Over the years, Jakob and Wilhelm continued to polish the stories to make them more dramatic and colorful and better suited to younger readers.
Explanation:
A detail from the text that we could use to explain how the Brothers Grimm changed fairy tales is: Over the years, Jakob and Wilhelm continued to polish the stories to make them more dramatic and colorful and better suited to younger readers.
Jakob and Wilhelm Grimm were among the first and best-known collectors of German and European folk tales. They adapted and popularized tales such as Cinderella, Hansel and Gretel, Rapunzel, Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, etc. Thanks to them, we know about these fairy tales and got to enjoy them as children and continue to enjoy them as adults. It can be said that they immortalized tales that would've probably been lost.
Devon is writing a report about keeping dogs happy and healthy. He will collect information about dogs' health from many different sources. One will be an interview with a dog walker. The dog walker would NOT be the correct source to answer which of these questions?
Answer:
C) What type of dog food has the best nutrition for dogs?
Explanation:
Writing a report about how to keep dogs happy and healthy will require not only the collection of information about the animal's health but also even an individual interview with whoever is responsible for the well-being of that animal. And in interviewing the dog walker, Devon is focusing on one source among many others.
Now, regarding questions asked to a dog walker, it will be within a certain limit that the dog walker will be able to provide questions. One question that he/she cannot provide the answer for will be the type of dog food that provides the best nutrition. Since he/she is just a dog walker, he/she will be responsible for the outdoor walks and runs, and not for the food that is given to the dog.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Answer:
C). Because they mean the same thing, free speech.
Explanation:
The common translation for 'isegoria' and 'parrhesia' is often considered inadequate because 'they denote the same meaning i.e. 'free speech.' Both the terms are from ancient Greek and stand for 'freedom of speech' which is often translated into simple terms as 'free speech.' However, both of them are ways to perceive 'free speech' and express one of the ancient Grek values pertaining to democracy yet Parrhesia came into being prior to isegoria in the 5th century B.C. Thus, option C is the correct answer.

“Never in the history of this nation have the people been so forceful in reversing the policy of our government in regard to war. We are indeed on the threshold of a new day for the peacemakers.” —Coretta Scott King
A. What is King’s primary emphasis—the people’s force in reversing policy OR the new day for peacemakers?
B. Explain how the meaning and effect would be different if King had said, “We are indeed on the threshold of a new day for the peacemakers. Never in the history of this nation have the people been so forceful in reversing the policy of our government in regard to war.”
Answer:
people’s force in reversing policy.
Explanation:
In the above lines, Coretta Scott King’s primary emphasis is on the people’s force in reversing policy. This is because King wants to highlight the ambition and decision of the masses who have finally decided to make a landmark stand on war.
If King had said “We are indeed on the threshold of a new day for the peacemakers. Never in the history of this nation have the people been so forceful in reversing the policy of our government in regard to war.”, the meaning and effect would be different because the intent of the lines would shift towards the peacemakers. It would mean that the monumental decision of the masses to reverse war policies was all because of the intervention of the peacemakers.

2. After she tried on twelve shirts, Ginny Weasley decided to buy only two.
5. Since we don't have enough people to play charades, Jar Jar Binks suggested we watch a movie instead.
7. If Lucius Malfoy doesn't get here soon, we will have to leave for the zoo without him.
Explanation:
Subordinating conjunctions are used to link a dependent clause to an independent one. Dependent clauses don't convey full meaning and they can't stand on its own in a sentence so they need to be connected with independent clause. General rule is that if a dependent clause precedes an independent in a sentence, it needs to be separated from it with a coma.
That means that sentences 1), 2), 5) and 7) require commas.
