Answer:
For Second Edition
Explanation:
1. It is metaphorical
2. The main stereotype of American Indians is that they are dimwitted. Alexie’s father loves to read, and the text says he was one of the few Indians who went to Catholic school willingly to learn.
3. By saying that everything has a fence, he is trying to tell the readers that there is a wall we all put up around ourselves. These boundaries restrict us from being the best that we can be.
4. His childhood was painful to him, because as a student growing up he was always different for going up against the stereotype. By referring to himself in the third-person, he can almost pretend it didn’t happen to him.
5. He is getting his point across by not saying, but implying what he means.
6. It is divided between the first, bigger half about the obstacles he faced fighting back against the Indian stereotype as a child, and the second half is about the struggle he now has with trying to help other young Indians growing up do the same.
How does the author of the poem integrate personification and metaphors to communicate her message?

Values are simply known as personal beliefs sets. It s the attitudes about truth, beauty, and the worth about something that one portrays.
A Promise is commonly known as an undertaking to do accordingly and also not to act in a negative way or a specified way at some future time. When an individual decided to do something and when one promises to do something, one obligates oneself to do it. It is just words.

"One does not expect nowadays to find a young man of the educated class, even in America, with such a naive, and, if I may say so, mid-Victorian point of view.

Answer:
TT
It is not very long, not very loud and not in 3-D. It has no attention-grabbing celebrity voice work, and the only pop-cultural allusions it makes are to other stories and films about Pooh and his friends. Which is not to say that the movie is obnoxiously self-referential, but rather that it is comfortable with itself and confident in its ability to amuse and beguile young viewers.
The partial Americanization of Winnie the Pooh, starting in the 1960s, was one of Walt Disney’s most brazen and successful acts of appropriation. Public-domain fairy tale princesses like Snow White and Cinderella may have been easier to conquer than A. A. Milne’s beloved bear of very little brain, and the first “Pooh” featurettes—collected in “The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh”—triumphed by respecting both the look and the sensibility of the literary source. Disney’s animated landscapes evoked E. H. Shepard’s lovely illustrations with such care that the book seemed to be coming to life on screen.
The new Winnie the Pooh, directed by Stephen J. Anderson and Don Hall, makes similarly witty use of typography, sending its characters scrambling over lines of type, which serve as obstacles, means of rescue and invitations to surreal jokes that are both sophisticated and accessible to newly literate members of the audience. Like Milne’s books, the movie is partly an initiation into the delightful errancies of language, which fashions sense and nonsense out of the same materials.
The story partly turns on the difficulties of English spelling and reading comprehension. Christopher Robin leaves a note that is wildly misconstrued by his stuffed-animal companions, who conjure monsters out of the fog of their own confusion.
They also are in search of Eeyore’s tail, and Pooh himself, true to form, is on a perpetual quest for honey. Much silliness ensues, a few lessons are broached, and the characters now and then burst into song. These tunes are passable, but the real musical treats come early and late, via the vocals of Zooey Deschanel. The vocal performances are lively without being showy—Craig Ferguson is a particularly fine Owl—and the film as a whole is decidedly modest, seeking not to reboot or update the Hundred Acre Wood, but rather to brighten it up a bit and get it back to how it used to be.
So it is good to see Pooh again, along with Rabbit, Owl and Eeyore (my own Milnean avatar)—and to discover a new path back into the old, classic story. Winnie the Pooh may not be a movie that grown-ups seek out on their own, but it may make some of them jealous of the 4-year-olds who are making the noble bear’s acquaintance for the first time.

1) In "The Soul selects her own Society -," what leaves the soul "unmoved"?
Answer:
Chariots and emperors
Explanation:
According to the poem, the soul is unmoved by chariots and emperors. This can be seen by the lines "Unmoved- she notes the chariots-pausing- / At her low gate- / Unmoved-an emperor be kneeling / upon her mat."
This poem reinforces the idea that we have to be faithful to the person we want to be, regardless of what others expect of us. The poet says that we must be true to ourselves, our own convictions and desires.

PLEASE HELP!! I NEED THIS DONE BY TODAY!! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!
More than 3,000 died from this earthquake as well as over 400,000 (almost half the city) were left homeless and more than 28,000 buildings were destroyed. The earthquake left about $500 million in damages. But luckily with the help of new innovation and technology, the city was able to quickly recover. Citizens were drafted to help clean the debris off the streets just days following this disaster.
"Who was Anne Frank" In the final paragraph, Anne Frank is referred to as “a symbol for the lost promise of the children who died in the Holocaust.” What does this mean and how does it contribute to the development of ideas in the text? Cite evidence from the text to support your answer.
Answer:
Anne Frank was referred as “a symbol for the lost promise of the children who died in the Holocaust” because she was one of the many young kids who had to overcome hard times and keep on going, hoping that everything would go back to normal. As stated in the text, it said that “While in hiding, Anne kept a diary in which she recorded her fears, hopes, and experiences.”.
So, other young kids (who experience the Holocaust) probably had the same thoughts/feeling that Anne had. By the way, this all contributes to the development of ideas in the text because it talks/tells about what other kids like Anne might have dealt with while being in a such hard and cruel time.
So, the meaning of the Anne being referred as “a symbol for the lost promise” was that she share a story/feelings about how her life was ripped apart but was still hoping for the best, in which other young Jewish kids might have felt too and wish for (What I’m trying to say is that the story/feelings that many young kids had was not lost and is still alive and known.
Even though the text talks more about Anne life and not others, this life was the same for many Jewish kids who suffered in the Holocaust. Although other young kids’ story’s might not have been stored or kept, they still have a way in which their own life was known and that’s by Anne Frank’s life story).

More than 850 million tons of topsoil had blown off the southern plains in 1935, nearly 8 tons of dirt for every resident of the United States. In the Dust Bowl, farmers lost 480 tons per acre.For over ten years, severe drought and severs wind erosion haunted the Great Plains, creating horrible dust storms that killed people, animals and plants, while destroying the air quality of the nation.By 1934, it had turned the Great Plains into a desert that came to be known as the Dust Bowl. In Oklahoma, the Panhandle area was hit hardest by the drought. The land of the southern plains, including Oklahoma, was originally covered with grasses that held the fine soil in place.In the Dust Bowl, about 7,000 people, men, women and especially small children lost their lives to “dust pneumonia.” At least 250,000 people fled the Plains.

What do you think is more important, talent or effort? Explain why.
Answer:
Effort
Explanation:
Effort is more important then talent because effort allows us to discover how capable we really are of something, much more capable than we thought we were. We learn new skills and abilities when we take the time to put in consistent effort. Every new success that we achieve through our efforts increases our confidence in ourselves and our abilities. Effort keeps us focused on success.
Answer:
Effort
Explanation:
I choose effort because talents are always viewed over the effort that is put into something. There are many examples to this view. For one; in a play or musical, the props and characters have so much effort put into them that people overlook that and mainly focus on the talent of the actor. That not only takes out display the display of the backstage workers, but also gives the actor(s) more recognition over the backstage. This isn’t to say that actors are bad, it’s just saying that the audience doesn’t put enough focus on the efforts, but more so on the talent of something else that may be a little less important than everything else.
