Why were meter and alliteration important poetic devices to 14th century
poets?
A. They helped poems stand out from others.
B. They lengthened the lines on the page.
C. They simulated natural conversation.
D. They made poems easier to memorize.
SUBMIT
The correct answer is D. They made poems easier to memorize.
Explanation:
In poems, alliteration refers to using words with the same consonant sound in a verse or multiple verses. This device makes the poem more memorable or easy to remember as the repetition forms a sound pattern. Also, by remembering which consonant sound is repeated it is easy to remember the words of each verse. Similarly, the use of the meter or a specific structure of verses (number of syllables in each verse and organization of stressed/unstressed syllables) makes the poem to be predictable and easy to remember. Moreover, these two features were more commonly used in poems during the 14th and 15th centuries as in this way the audience could better remember poems.

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.

Perhaps you wanted pizza for dinner, but were out voted by the rest of the family who wanted chili. This is similar to what happens in a community. One person has to give up a right for the good of the group. Sometimes citizens' duties and rights conflict with each other. A good example is a public protest. People have the right to meet in groups and share ideas. However, a protest can disrupt traffic or other normal activities. A city must provide extra police protection to keep people safe. Therefore, the city has the right to require permission in advance for a protest. Government must make laws to balance the rights of individuals and different groups of people. To what is a family compared to in this paragraph? Voting Community Public protest Laws and rights

Select the part of the dictionary entry that provides information about the origin of the word tolerate.
The answer is "1525-1535, Latin Toleratus, from Latin tolerare to bear"
Explanation:
The origin of a word or etymology refers to the history of a word including the first language in which the word was used, and its evolution. In dictionary entries, it is common to find concise information about the etymology of a word. This section in the entry can be identified because it usually includes the word "from" or mentions another language such as Latin or Greek.
In the case of the excerpt presented, the origin of a word is explained in the section "1525-1535, Latin..." because by reading this section the reader will know the word first originated in the Latin language and meant "to bear".
The vapour pressure of pure benzene at a certain temperature is 0.850 bar. A non volatile, non electrolyte solid weighing 0.5 g is added to 39.0g of benzene. The vapour pressure of the solution then is 0.845 bar. What is the molecular mass of the solid substance
Answer:
The molar mass is 169g / mol.
Explanation:
To achieve this result you must consider the formula:
[(pº-p) / pº] = [na / (na + nb)]
This formula should be replaced by the values shown in the question as follows:
pº = 0.850 bar
p = 0.845 bar
To find the values of "na" and "nb", we will consider that the letter "m" represents the molecular mass of benzene that is equal to 78, so we have:
na = 0.5 / m; nb = 39/78 = 0.5
Now we can replace all values in the formula:
0.850-0.845 / 0.850 = (0.5 / m) / (0.5 / m) +0.5 =
0.5 / (0.5 = 0.5m) =
1/1 + m =
m = 0.850 / 0.005 - 1 = 169g / mol
4.Rearrange the following words and phrases to form meaningful sentences.

c) with winners / companies / to / generally / prefer / be / associated
Answer:
a) surfaces / playing / are decorated / logos / corporate / with
= Playing surfaces are decorated with corporate logos.
b) walking / now / advertisement / are / players
=Players are now walking advertisements.
c) with winners / companies / to / generally / prefer / be / associated
= Companies generally prefer to be associated with winners.
Explanation:
As seen in the questions, words are arranged in a jumbled manner which makes them be completely meaningless words put together. In order to get a meaningful sentence out of them, we have to arrange the words or phrases in such a way that all words/ phrases are used in their right place and that they also make a meaningful sentence in the end.
The first option's sentence is "Playing surfaces are decorated with corporate logos".
The second option is "Players are now walking advertisements".
And the third option is "Companies generally prefer to be associated with winners".

During the previous weeks, you have developed your public speaking skills. As you evaluate your progress at midterm, which one of the skills listed below do you plan to further develop during the remainder of the quarter? Thoroughly explain why you selected this skill and share specific actions you will take to further develop it. Actively listening Conducting research Creating an outline
This is a personal question, which means that only you can fully answer it. However, it is possible for us to provide some guidance that can help you complete your work. In order to answer the question, you have to explain why these might be useful skills, and which actions might help you further develop them:
Actively listening
Active listening is a very important public speaking skill. Listening actively ensures that your audience is able to communicate with you. This will help you target the content in a better way, as well as respond to their questions in a clearer and more comprehensive fashion. One way in which you can improve this skill is by trying to listen "to understand" as opposed to listening "to answer."
Conducting research
Conducting research is essential for public speaking, as this is the main way in which you can obtain the information that will inform your speech. By conducting research, you make sure that the content you are sharing is of quality, and that the facts you are giving are accurate. One way in which you can improve this is by looking at a variety of different sources of information and analyzing the differences that they each present.
Creating an outline
Creating an outline will help you with your public speaking by allowing to create a "roadmap" of where you want your speech to go. This will direct your ideas and ensure that the information you are sharing is well-connected and relevant to the audience. One way to practice this skill is by constantly thinking of the ways in which one idea connects to the next one in your speech.

do we really have freedom of expression essay on it?
plz reply asap?
Answer:
We can point out that freedom of expression is particularly important nowadays. The current generation is addicted to expressing their opinion, to saying what they do not like or do not like. We can say that we have freedom of expression.
Freedom of expression is the fundamental right of man to say what he thinks. It is a natural right, which belongs to the essence of the human being, as well as the right to life, to dignity, being probably the most important right for the functioning of a free and democratic society.
At the individual level, freedom of expression is a necessary condition for the development, fulfillment, and dignity of each person. This right helps us to know and better understand the world we live in, through the free exchange of ideas and information with our fellow human beings.
Freedom of expression is important not only as a right, but also because it is essential for the observance of other fundamental rights (access to information, political freedom, religious freedom, the rights of national minorities, sex).
Without free expression there is no exchange of ideas, there is no public debate, there is no possibility to inform ourselves, to choose, to express ourselves artistically. Our daily choices, the way we dress, the music we listen to, the books we read, the media we are informed about, are all expressions of the right to free speech.
Totalitarian regimes (communism, fascism, Nazism, religious dictatorships) have been (and still are in some countries) the most hostile to this right. Restrictions imposed by law and abuses by the authorities concerned both political freedom of expression (banning opposition parties, restricting the right to association and public assemblies, sanctioning criticism of the government), and other manifestations of freedom of expression, such as cultural ones. artistic, sports.
For many historical periods, the world has been persecuted and has not been able to express its opinion, opinion, knowledge. There would be many examples: the ability of women to vote, the restriction of freedom of expression during communism (before 1989 in European countries and Russia). We are a "modern" generation addicted to expressing our opinions and expressing ourselves.

Cherry-picking: In psychology, the term "cherry-picking" is described as a phenomenon in which an individual tends to suppress specific evidence or a mistaken belief of some incomplete evidence, and thus he or she acts of pointing out particular data or cases that tend to confirm specific things whereas ignoring an important part of the related case or data and it often tends to contradict the same. However, it refers to the process of false selective attention.

Explanation:
Read the following sentence. Last year, the council members blank happy to visit their sister city in Argentina. Choose the verb that makes this sentence correct. a. were b. are c. was d. is

Explanation:
Verbs should agree with the subject (person or entity doing the action) and they should be in the correct tense (present, past, or future). In this context, the section "Last year" indicates the action of the sentence occurred in the past, and therefore the verb should be in the past. Moreover, in this sentence, the subject is "the council members", which is a plural subject. This means an appropriate verb for this sentence should be in past and plural form. According to this, the only correct option is "were" because this is the past form of the verb to be, it is used for plural subjects, and it creates a coherent sentence.

1. Read the short personal essay by George Orwell.2. Answer the following questions. _How are the Europeans presented in this story? What are they like?_How are the Burmese presented? what are they like? _who do you empathize the most with? _ Describe the presence of prejudice and racism in the story events as well as Orwell's narration(wording choice).
Answer:
"Shooting an Elephant"
The Europeans are presented as imperialists who think that they are in control not knowing that they have lost their will power to the natives, whom they think they dominate. The Europeans are described like masked people who have grown to resemble the masks they wear with ingrained habits and prejudices.
The Burmese are presented as idle, idiotic, and lacking the coercive power necessary to be in obvious control of their lives, especially since they have no physical weapons. However, what they lack in physical weapons, they possess in abundance with the power of the will. This implies that their lack of physical weapons does not make them powerless in the real sense. They have will. With it, they control the Europeans who weld physical power.
I empathize mostly with the Europeans. Their portrayal by George Orwell is very sympathetic. By trying to impose their authority on others, they limit their ability to even control their own lives. They must dance to the music of the crowd because of the expectations placed on them by the natives. The same is true of all rulers who have refused to embrace leadership principles, thinking that they are in charge of the people, not realizing that it is the people that control them with their crowd expectations.
Europeans are not accepted by others. Europeans do not accept others. Each tribe thinks highly of themselves and belittles the others. But, we are all human beings, created in God’s image and likeness. The moment we overcome our prejudices, it is the same moment that we are liberated to fulfil God’s mandate, “to exercise dominion over the earth.” This dominion is not the domination of other people, but the dominion of the elements that make up the earth, the forces, and the evils that attempt to take over the earth that God has created for the welfare of human beings. We must collaborate, cherish each other, and find joy in our diversity as humans. We must act together in love. Conclusively, George Orwell’s observation is true of all human beings, “when the white man (read, “any class of humanity”) turns tyrant, it is his own freedom that he destroys.”
Explanation:
George Orwell's 1936 short story titled: "Shooting an Elephant" describes his experiences as a police officer in Burma. In it, he denounces British imperialism as lacking common sense. Europeans are made a laughing stock of by the natives they try to rule. According to George Orwell, Imperialism and colonialism are evil as no good has come from the imposition of another's will on others.
