Had they been swallows only,

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Your question is not complete but somehow I can say this is the poem 'Auspex' by James Russell Lowell.

Explanation:

The correct rhyme scheme for each of the following lines as they have a rhyme scheme.

Had they been swallows only, A

Without the passion stronger B

That skyward longs and sings,—C

Woe’s me, I shall be lonely A

When I can feel no longer  B

The impatience of their wings! C

How many lines are in each stanza in this poem?

Ans: 6

This poem is about one's inner passion and ageing; while at one time our hearts are full of wonderment and light (the songbird references) as you grow and the weight of the world is upon you, you become detached from the imaginative awe and purity that was once so innate. You become jaded under the weight of adulthood and believe you are experiencing growth (sweet delusion, like birds the brown leaves hover) when it truly is leading you to be overwhelmed with the complexities that twist the mind and lead to despair (last 4 lines). It's about holding onto the grace within your own heart and how only looking outwards for contentment or delight will lead to your own emotional undoing. In other words, don't let the fire go out. Lowell uses words such as "song-birds," "passion," and "impatience" to suggest that life is brief and should be lived passionately.

Read the paragraph.

When Allison saw the advertisement for a free basketball clinic at the community center, she knew she would attend. Tryouts for her school team were still a month away, and her jump shot needed work if she wanted to be selected this year. Hours of work with her brother had improved her technique, and her layups were consistent. She could hold her own in neighborhood games of three-on-three, but her outside shots rarely made it through the hoop. Allison hoped that the instruction at the clinic would address this weakness. She marked her calendar for the event and headed out to the driveway.

What can readers conclude about Allison? Check all that apply.

She wants to play on her school’s basketball team.
She has better basketball skills than her brother.

Cryptologists looked for cribs, which are repeated expressions in messages. Sloppy operators would repeat phrases like "nothing to report" or "weather forecast" (Wettervorhersage), which served as clues. If there were no cribs to be found, the British would send out false information about, say, British mines planted in a given area. The Germans might then send messages with the name of that area, which would provide clues about deciphering that code.

When the premise of an argument relies on mention of the character, background, or personality of a person, what is
the logical fallacy being committed?

hasty generalization
popular appeal
appeal lack of evidence
(personal attack)

Answers

Answer:

Personal attack.

Explanation:

Personal attack fallacy or ad hominem fallacy is a type of fallacy that uses a direct attack on the individual's personal character. This attack is targeted at a particular individual and uses his/her personal characteristics as opposed to directing the attack at the argument.

Dear (your friend)

How are you doing over there in Sweden? I hope everything is okay with you and your studies? I was very happy to get your letter dated 25th June 2014. I must tell you that the letter went a long way in filling the vacuum you left behind with your sudden departure to Europe to search for greener pasture. Atey I must also let you know that everyone is missing you dearly here in Nigeria.

Sometimes we your friends that is to say Osaze.Yemi and Kewe meet at the usual joint at Playball Viewing Centre at Maku Street where we used to watch English Premiership matches to talk about you fondly. We try to imagine the type of life you will be living over there with their kind of weather.I hear it is always cold down there being a Scandinavian country and that the citizens walk about wearing thick clothes, smoking and drinking whisky because of the harsh weather. What a life!

I must tell you that I appreciate your letter because it was informative and very timely I must say. I read the contents over and over again; taking my time to make sure nothing was left behind. I enjoyed the most the third paragraph where you narrated how you were recently embarrassed at an eatery for not knowing how to use folks and knives. I laughed so much at that story that my stomach almost burst. Well, it is a pity that you allowed that to happen to you because I remember that I encouraged you to do something about it before you travelled but you took my advice for granted. I believe that you have learnt your lesson now. I will advise you as a friend to go learn how to eat with cutlery now because you are no more in Nigeria where most of our food are finger food you know. It is not too late to learn how to eat with cutlery.

Now, in the letter you sent you want me to join you in Sweden and I must say that am very delighted to read that part I must confess. I use this opportunity to thank you for being very thoughtful and nice to me among all your numerous friends. But Atey am sorry to decline your offer of invitation and I want you to please try to understand and bear with me.1 know you will be itching to know why I declined your offer of invitation .The reasons are that my mother is sick and needs my attention urgently. As the first son I have to be around her all the time, am currently gainfully employed in the country after many years of searching for a job and lastly the security situation has improved because the president is doing his best to ensure that the citizens are well protected.

I wish you the best in Sweden and please don't forget to reply to my letter. Love you and take care.

some residents of the suburbs of vredehoek and devil's peak were instructed to vacate their homes, schools in the area were shut and several streets were closed to traffic. in active voice​

Answers

Answer:

Some residents of the suburbs of vredehoek and devil's peak have moved out of their homes and closed schools and streets to traffic.

Explanation:

The active voice is present in sentences where the subject of the sentence is doing the action indicated by the verb and not suffering the action presented by the verb.

The subject of a sentence is the word the verb is referring to, the verb is the word that indicates an action or a state. In this case, we can see that in the sentence presented in the question above, the verb is the words "were instructed", "shut" and "closed". The subject of this sentence is "add residents". In this sentence, the subject is not doing the action of the verbs, but is suffering this action. Therefore, to pass the sentence to the active voice, we could present it as:

"Some residents of the suburbs of vredehoek and devil's peak have moved out of their homes and closed schools and streets to traffic."
