Answer:
Beowulf confronted three demonic beasts, Grendel, his mother, and the Dragon without sparing a thought for his own life. In the epic poem of the same title, Beowulf is depicted as an epic hero, who fights and kills Grendel and stops him from killing any more of Hrothgar's men. This courageous confrontation with a demonic beast proves Beowulf's great loyalty and love to Hrothgar and his people.
On his own part as an epic hero, Beowulf shows that he is a brave, loyal, responsible, and strong warrior-leader by risking his life for the greater good and glory of his people and his kingdom. He utilized his great courage, inhuman strength, and faith to also defeat Grendel’s mother, who fought to revenge her son's death, by using the sword that Grendel’s mother kept at her disposal, but was unable to use. He had earlier defeated Grendel himself and later he also defeated the Dragon. By traveling great “distances to prove his strength at impossible odds against supernatural demons and beasts,” Beowulf proves that he is indeed an epic hero.
Explanation:
The poem "Beowulf " (c1200) dates back to a very different era. But, the poem gives modern day readers a historical view of Anglo-Saxon life. It also emphasizes universal human characteristics and themes of life that are still relevant to the modern day readers. For instance, it teaches readers that Anglo-Saxons believe in revenge and battle more than life because life is fleeting, but fame is not.

Rings on the scales of some fish show the age of the fish.
transitive
intransitive
Answer:
The verb in the sentence is:
a) transitive
Explanation:
A transitive verb exerts its action on an object, which means it can only express its meaning completely if that object is mentioned. In the sentence "Rings on the scales of some fish show the age of the fish," the verb is "show". To find the object, we have to ask the verb a question: the rings show what? They show the age of the fish. "the age of the fish" is the complete object of the verb "show". Therefore, the verb "show" is transitive.

2. Which types of textual evidence can be used to support claims? What are each of the four types, including statistics and quotes from a reliable expert. Choose one to describe in more detail. Your answer should be 3 to 4 sentences long.
Answer:
Explanation:
A claim refers to a debatable argument that states a fact that is not merely a personal opinion. The primary focus of an author’s claim is supporting and proving the main idea. You will be making a claim by arguing to prove your position.
A well written claim statement will keep your readers interested. It creates questions in the minds of the reader and they will likely get the answers in your essay. A number of arguments support your main idea and the reader will find some to be acceptable while others are not. However, all of them work towards the fulfillment of the reader’s expectation.
2.One of the major aspects of developing a disability claim with the VA is gathering and submitting relevant evidence to help support it. The VA has what is called a duty to assist, however, it can be extremely beneficial to also gather your own evidence during the claims process. By submitting various forms of evidence, you provide the VA with more information and different angles for them to view your case. The type of evidence you should consider submitting will depend greatly on the disabilities that you are experiencing and at what step of the process you are at.
Types of Evidence
Service Records/Service Medical Records
When trying to initially get your claim service connected, you have to show an in-service event that led to your disability. The easiest way to prove this in-service event is with your service records and medical records, if the event is documented. Whether it is a physical injury, or a mental one, having it documented in your service records can be a huge stress reliever when it comes to managing your VA claim. If the in-service event is not documented in your service record, don’t give up on your claim! There are other pieces of evidence that can be used to help prove your claim.
Service records can also be beneficial when you need to prove you were in a certain location during a specific time period. For example, for the VA’s presumptive illnesses, you may need to show that you were in Vietnam or Thailand between 1962 and 1975, or that you were stationed at Camp Lejeune between 1953 and 1987, or even possibly that you served in the Southwest Asia Theater during the Gulf War. Your service record should contain any documents that show what units you were assigned to and the location of each. These documents can include, but are not limited to, orders, travel vouchers, re-enlistment paperwork, and awards.

What is a pronoun?Pronouns are words or groups of words that can be used in place of nouns or noun phrases in grammar and linguistics. Since pronouns serve so many different cross-linguistic purposes, several current theorists disagree with the conventional idea that they belong to the same class as other components of speech. "You" is a pronoun that can be used in either the single or plural form.
Personal and possessive pronouns, reciprocal and reflexive pronouns, demonstrative pronouns, relative and interrogative pronouns, and indefinite pronouns are some of the subtypes. Pronoun use frequently incorporates anaphora, in which the pronoun's meaning is based on an antecedent. A "pronominal" is the name of the adjective that goes with a "pronoun."

Answer:
burthen - meaning, weight, or significance
recompence - reward
loon - a silly of foolish person
rill - a small stream
measure - the rhythm of a piece of poetry or music
Explanation:
Burthen is an archaic form of spelling "burden". When we think of a burden, we think of something heavy, difficult to carry around. Therefore, burthen means "weight"
Recompence is more commonly spelled "recompense" nowadays. It is the same as reward.
A loon is a foolish or silly person. We can think of a "loony", a crazy or silly person, someone who does not think or see things the way others do.
A rill is, by definition, a small stream or brook. There is not much we can add here.
Finally, measure refers to the rhythm of a poem or a piece of music. We commonly refer to it by "meter" or simply "rhythm", depending on what we mean.

what is the present difficulty of speaker? compare and explain how the parent child relationship become significant in poem parrot in cage
Answer:
The present difficulty of the speaker is that he is faced with the harsh reality of human life.
In the poem, the child is separated from his parents and other relatives which becomes significant in the poem and it depicts the harshness of Fate that separated a child from his parents and family.
Explanation:
'The Parrot in the Cage' is a poem written by Lekhnath Paudyal. The poem was written during the reign of the Rana in Nepal. The Rana regime destituted Nepalese from their freedom and happiness.
The poem is usually interpreted to have two speakers, the poet himself and the parrot in the cage. Both the speakers depict the difficulties that they have faced in the poem. The difficulties that the speaker have faced in the poem is the harsh realities of human life. During the reign of the Rana, people of Nepal were deprived from enjoying freedom, justice, and happiness. The poet is separated from his parents and other relatives which signfies not only separation from culture but also spiritual separation.
In the poem, the parent and child relation is significant. The child is separated from his parents and other relatives in the poem. This separation and relationship is signficant as it resembles the loss of freedom, of the child, to roam around freely and feed on the wild fruits. The speaker wonders that his parents must be beating their breasts due to the separation. They must be mourning the separation. It shows the situation of the Rana reign in Nepal when families were separated from each other.
