Walt Whitman
In what three ways does Whitman’s poem match the time in which he was writing?
Answer:
The answer to that question is A, B, D
Explanation:
I got it correct.
The three ways that Whitman's poem matches the time in which he was writing are the poem celebrates people, the poem breaks rules about structure and the poem shows a positive picture.
Write about Whitman's work?Whitman's work broke the boundaries of poetic form and is generally prose-like. Its signature style deviates from the course set by his predecessors and includes idiosyncratic treatment of the body and the soul as well as of the self and the other.
It uses unusual images and symbols, including rotting leaves, tufts of straw, and debris. Whitman openly wrote about death and sexuality, including prostitution. He is often labelled the father of free verse, though he did not invent it. He wrote in the preface to the 1855 edition of Leaves of Grass, The proof of a poet is that his country absorbs him as affectionately as he has absorbed it. He believed there was a vital, symbiotic relationship between the poet and society.
Whitman emphasized this connection especially in Song of Myself by using an all-powerful first-person narration.

Please explain the event that occurred between Elie, Idek, and the French girl (Night)
Answer:
A French girl helped Elie after he was beaten brutally by Idek
Explanation:
This narrative is from Night by Elie Wiesel.
Eliezer (Elie) was a Jewish prisoner in a concentration camp during the holocaust. Idek was an SS officer and the Kapo in charge of Eliezer’s work crew. In the narrative, we see Idek is a lustful and selfish man given often (or easily susceptible) to fits of rage. On one of such occasion, while in his natural element, Idek brutally beat Eliezer. After having being thus dealt with by Idek, a French girl (who works next to Eliezer in the warehouse) came to his aid by giving him bread and encouraged Elie to remain strong. Many years later, Eliezer ran into this French girl in Paris where he learned that she was a French Jew who had passed as an Aryan

The final scene of the play completes the revenge triangle. Describe how all the sons of the murdered fathers (King Hamlet, King Fortinbras, and Polonius) have seen vengeance served.
Answer:
the answer is King Hamlet
Explanation:
The final scene of the play completes the revenge triangle. The sons have satisfied both the medieval norm of honor and the Christian expectation of forgiveness. Most significantly, Hamlet is now a fighter.
What is Hamlet?At the start of the play, Hamlet was about thirty years old. He is also the son of Queen Gertrude and the late Monarch Hamlet, as well as the nephew of the current king, Claudius, The King of Denmark, who is the antagonist of the play.
The central tension of the play is Hamlet's desire to kill Claudius in order to avenge his father's death. However, he is too hesitant to make a decision and cannot bring himself to do so. However, near the end of the play, Hamlet finally kills Claudius. This is the play's climax.
Therefore, the retribution triangle is completed in the play's last scene. Both the medieval norm of honor and the Christian expectation of forgiveness have been met by the sons. Most importantly, Hamlet has become a fighter.

Read the following sentence from the passage.
Instead of playing winter ball in Puerto Rico during the 1958-59 off season like the rest of the league, Clemente enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve.
Which three sentences correctly paraphrase the sentence?
1. In 1958-59, Clemente joined the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve while other players in the league played winter ball in Puerto Rico (the National Archives).
2. Unlike other players who were playing baseball in Puerto Rico, Clemente chose to enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve during the 1958-59 off season (the National Archives).
3. Clemente joined the United States Marine Corps Reserve in the 1958-59 off season, while other players were in Puerto Rico playing winter baseball (the National Archives).
4. Clemente, instead of playing winter ball in Puerto Rico during the 1958-59 off season like the rest of the league, enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve (the National Archives).
5. During the 1958-59 off season, Clemente joined the United States Marine Corps Reserve instead of playing winter ball in Puerto Rico like the rest of the league (the National Archives).
6. Clemente enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve instead of playing winter ball in Puerto Rico during the 1958-59 off season like the rest of the league (the National Archives).
Answer:
The three sentences that paraphrase correctly the sentence are:
3. Clemente joined the United States Marine Corps Reserve in the 1958-59 off season, while other players were in Puerto Rico playing winter baseball (the National Archives).
2. Unlike other players who were playing baseball in Puerto Rico, Clemente chose to enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve during the 1958-59 off season (the National Archives).
1. In 1958-59, Clemente joined the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve while other players in the league played winter ball in Puerto Rico (the National Archives).
Explanation:
The reasons behind this answer are the following: first of all, we can see something very clearly in those three options the meaning of the sentence prevails. While the rest losses it. First, because they don't say that he joined the marine corps in the offseason of 1958-1959. Instead they say that he joined the marine corps for only that period. Second, the fifth option says that the whole league joined the marine corps when they didn't. Thus, this is the correct answer.
Read this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer.” The disease was first detected in England in 1986, though some scientists think the very first cases started at least ten years before. Cows usually eat only grass and other plants, but farmers had been feeding them a meat and bone mixture that made the cows plumper. But somehow, at least one batch of the mixture had become contaminated with what was then an unknown killer: a prion. By 1993, British farmers were reporting up to one thousand new cases of BSE a week. Governments all around the world reacted by increasing testing for the disease and not allowing any cows to be eaten if they were at risk of having the disease. As sheep can also get a prion disease called scrapie, they were tested as well. Farmers were angry that they were losing their livestock, and nobody knew how to protect cows and people from the disease. Consumers were also in a panic when they learned about BSE, and for a very good reason: prions are infectious. If you eat a prion from a "mad cow” or sheep, you are at risk for developing a human version of BSE. The public felt betrayed that their governments had underreacted to the problem or covered it up. Eventually, in 1997, governments began to ban farmers from feeding their livestock high-risk meat and bone mixtures. With that ban, the epidemic quickly peaked, and by 2010 had largely disappeared. Over the years, half a million cows and two hundred people had been killed by prions. What is the main idea of this excerpt? Mad cow disease ended because of government bans on feeding cows certain foods, but people were angry that governments did not act sooner. Mad cow disease was originally caused when governments allowed for cows’ food sources to be contaminated, so people were angry at their leaders. Both farmers and customers had been aware of mad cow disease, but they did not think their governments should have done anything to stop it. Both farmers and customers protested to prevent their governments from interfering with the farming and selling of cows and meat.
