Leadership Family love culture
Answer:
Leadership:
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Family:The stick-together families are happier by far
Than the brothers and the sisters who take separate highways are.
The gladdest people living are the wholesome folks who make
A circle at the fireside that no power but death can break.
Love:
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right.
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
Culture:
Can rules or tutors educate
The semigod whom we await?
He must be musical,
Tremulous, impressional,
Alive to gentle influence
Of landscape and of sky,
And tender to the spirit-touch
Of man's or maiden's eye:
But, to his native centre fast,
Shall into Future fuse the Past,
And the world's flowing fates in his own mould recast.

Explanation:
Bicycling by young women has helped to swell the ranks of reckless girls who finally drift into the standing army of outcast women of the United States," wrote Smith in a resolution issued by her group, the Women's Rescue League. Which best describes Charlotte Smith's viewpoint? Women should not cycle until they are older. Women should learn to cycle properly. Women should avoid cycling. Women should cycle only as a hobby.
Answer:
The option which best describes Charlotte Smith's viewpoint is:
C. Women should avoid cycling.
Explanation:
According to the book "Wheels of Change", Charlotte Smith condemned cycling as an indecent practice for women. In Smith's opinion, women who ride a bike are less moral and less religious than those who do not. She even accused riding bikes of being unhealthy - which we have known for decades to be untrue. With that in mind, we can easily choose letter C as the best option. To Smith, women should not cycle at all.
Answer:
C. Women should avoid cycling

A. Replace the word "and" with "that"
Explanation:
This sentence isn't completely grammatically correct, because we can't properly determine what the part was put forth by Charles Darwin nearly 160 years ago refers to. We could think that it refers to the general theory currently recognized as biology's conceptual framework, when it, in fact, refers to the theory of evolution (is that of evolution = is the theory of evolution). That's why we need to replace the word and with that - so that the given part is more obviously connected to the theory of evolution.
The word metabolism comes from a Greek word that means "a change." Metabolism can be defined as the sum of the nutritional and waste processes of an organism. This involves the digestion, use, and excretion of food. Studies have shown that an animal's metabolism is affected by the climate; warm-blooded animals have slower metabolisms at warmer temperatures. This means that the animals have to eat less because their bodies do not use as much energy. During colder weather, animals tend to have faster metabolisms. Therefore, animals usually eat more during colder seasons. Do It! Metabolism generally _________ to the weather.

Opals come in a variety of colors, and they range from opaque to transparent. The most desirable opals are known as the precious opals. They have a special iridescent quality. As you move the opal under light, it shows a spectrum of colors.Which words provide the best context clues for the meaning of iridescent?

2: past the date of being safe to drink
3: "variety, light, spectrum of colors"
4: had not eaten since breakfast
5: "like not being able to eat at a lunch counter"
Read this poem: how like a winter hath my absence been from thee, the pleasure of the fleeting year! What freezing have I felt, what dark days seen! What old becember's bareness every where! And yet this time removed was summer's time; The teeming autumn, big with rich increases, bearing the wanton burden of the prime, like widow'd wombs after their lord's decease: yet this abundant issue seem'd to me but hope of orphans and unfather'd fruit; for summer and his pleasures wait on thee, and, thou away, the very birds are mute; or, if they sing, 'its with so dull a cheer that leaves look pale, dreading the winter's near. Where does the tone shift in the poem.
Answer:
The tone of the poem changes along the lines "The teeming autumn, big with rich increases, bearing the wanton burden of the prime, like widow'd wombs after their lord's decease"
Explanation:
The poem has a tone of melancholy and sadness, but the lines "The teeming autumn, big with rich increases, bearing the wanton burden of the prime, like widow'd wombs after their lord's decease" cause a change of tone. This is because these lines talk about abundance, hope that provides a certain comfort to the reader, but quickly the tone returns to being melancholy, removing this comfort previously achieved.

What tone should you avoid in discussion?
objective
comedic
sarcastic
reasonable
sarcastic- people won't believe what you're saying.
PLEASE MARK ME AS BRAINLIEST
Answer:
The answer is sarcastic and comedic
Explanation: I know this is not a multi answer but it is both. The reason being is because if you are sarcastic no one will take you seriously and think you don't mean anything you say. Also because it is a rude way to talk to someone. When you are talking in a comedic tone again no one will take you seriously because it all seems like a big joke to you. And for that reason no one will want to do business with you or they will not ant to have a serious conversation with you.
