With the development of cuneiform in Mesopotamia over 5000 years ago, poetry began to evolve. The ancient rulers' power over their subjects was described in these poems that were discovered on clay tablets.
How long has poetry existed?Poetry has existed for thousands of years in many forms. However, considering that the epic poem dates back to the 20th century B.C., we can consider it to be the first example of poetry. The sonnet form and its earliest occurrence in the 13th century may then be discussed by going hundreds of years in the future.
Most of the earliest poetry that has been discovered is in the style of epic poetry, some of which existed centuries before humans started recording their stories in writing. Around 2000 B.C., the Sumerians used the "Epic of Gilgamesh," one of the earliest poems, as part of their oral heritage.
Thus, The Epic of Gilgamesh is one of the oldest pieces of literature in existence, coming from ancient Mesopotamia. It tells the tale of a Sumerian King who set out to discover the key to immortality.

ESSAY ON MY CRAZIEST EXPERIENCE IN SHOPING MALL
[tex] \huge\fbox\pink{A}\fbox\blue{n}\fbox\purple{s}\fbox\green{w}\fbox\red{e}\fbox\orange{r}[/tex]
My craziest experience in a shopping mall when I was about five 7 years old and my mom took me to mall. First my mom told me to stay in that little play house area and she went for shopping. And I did. After a while I started to get bored and went out of the area i remembered that i went into a toy store. Over there a guy asked me did you have your mommy and i just stood there and walked in and started throwing toys on to the ground and he came and said, "Go get your mom and then come here." So i went out of the store and tried to find my way back all the way to the play area but i couldn't. Eventually I did and my mom wasn't there and i started to cry and then these people came and asked me are you lost and i said yes. And they asked me for my mother's name. They said her name twice and after five minutes she came. I never got lost again.

Answer:
My craziest experience at a shopping mall. Hmmm… well I have been to the mall a lot. The only times I can remember thanking God that we were going to leave soon was when each of my parents were embarrassing me. Not my sister, me. Nobody can understand my choice of style. I’m an out there kind of person, so having clothing that shares that personality, kind of works for me. Anyways, the first story was when my fashion style was starting out, and it was when my sister was really into Hot Topic and I had never went there before. The first time I went into the store, I think my mom almost died. She definitely didn’t like metal chains, black clothes, and all that. At that time, never did I. We were both judgemental about it, but now we’re fine with it. My dad still needs a little more work, but he’ll get there, maybe.

However, Emily has changed over the last two years in favorite stores. The smelly stores like Hollister and Aero, are no longer a demand to visit anymore. We were in Jounrey’s and my mom and sister were looking at shoes. I was at the front of the store, it’s a shoe store, it will only depress me if I spend too much time in there. When I was in there, looking around, I found the Converse and my dad starts talking to the guy who worked there about how these were the shoes of the 80s and all that. It was so embarrassing! It was really awkward, and luckily enough I wasn’t the only one who thought that either. Thank god.

In the following fable by Aesop, which sentence shows that the Country Mouse is generous?
The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse
Now you must know that a Town Mouse once upon a time went on a visit to his cousin in the country. He was rough and ready, this cousin, but he loved his town friend and made him heartily welcome. Beans and bacon, cheese and bread, were all he had to offer, but he offered them freely. The Town Mouse rather turned up his long nose at this country fare, and said: "I cannot understand, Cousin, how you can put up with such poor food as this, but of course you cannot expect anything better in the country; come you with me and I will show you how to live. When you have been in town a week you will wonder how you could ever have stood a country life." No sooner said than done: the two mice set off for the town and arrived at the Town Mouse's residence late at night. "You will want some refreshment after our long journey," said the polite Town Mouse, and took his friend into the grand dining-room. There they found the remains of a fine feast, and soon the two mice were eating up jellies and cakes and all that was nice. Suddenly they heard growling and barking. "What is that?" said the Country Mouse. "It is only the dogs of the house," answered the other. "Only!" said the Country Mouse. "I do not like that music at my dinner." Just at that moment the door flew open, in came two huge mastiffs, and the two mice had to scamper down and run off. "Good-bye, Cousin," said the Country Mouse, "What! going so soon?" said the other. "Yes," he replied; "Better beans and bacon in peace than cakes and ale in fear."

STORIES OF USEFUL INVENTIONS, excerpt
By S. E. Forman
1911
THE MATCH
There never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match.
Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by nature—by a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble.
In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar.
Which does the author mean by "... nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark"?
Humans were unable to make fire.
Nature was unable to make fire.
Humans were not very intelligent.
Humans did not try to make fire.
Answer:

Explanation:

hope i helped
Answer:

Read the following sentence from “The Gift if the Magi” by O. Henry. What is the meaning of the word sterling?
Many a happy hour she had spent planning for something nice for him. Something fine and rare and sterling—something just a little bit near to being worthy of the honor of being owned by Jim.
A.
cheap
B.
of great value
C.
priceless
D.
of poor quality
Answer
Sterling means of great value.
Explanation
First of all, it seems that answer choice A, C, and D are similar, leaving B the outlier. If you picked A, C and D would be viable answers as well. The same thing applies if you picked C or D.
Another way you could have figured this out is with the context in the sentence. She wanted to give Jim something fine and rare, which are synonyms for of great value.
