what is the theme of the story “pomegranate seeds”?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Within 'The Pomegranate' Boland uses the Greek myth of Persephone, Ceres, also known as Demeter, and Hades to speak on themes of youth, coming of age, and the passage of time. The mood is at times wistful, but more often than not it is serious and contemplative as the speaker analyzes her own life and her daughter's

Hope it helps❤️

Answer 2
Striking in its mythological resonances, “Pomegranate Seed” is also a powerful meditation on the supernatural, on the conflict between flesh and spirit, and on the constant risk of alienation in human life.

A thousand doors ago
when I was a lonely kid
in a big house with four
garages and it was summer
as long as I could remember,
I lay on the lawn at night,
clover wrinkling over me,
the wise stars bedding over me,
my mother's window a funnel
of yellow heat running out,
my father's window, half shut,
an eye where sleepers pass,
and the boards of the house
were smooth and white as wax
and probably a million leaves
sailed on their strange stalks
as the crickets ticked together
and I, in my brand new body,
which was not a woman's yet,
told the stars my questions
and thought God could really see
the heat and the painted light,
elbows, knees, dreams, goodnight.

A special program gets people to walk more and be healthy. Each day, people are asked to take 2,000 more steps. They can take the steps in a store or in a park—it does not matter. As long as people walk more, they will get exercise. They may not lose weight, but they will not gain weight either. Dr. Hill started the program. He tested it on many people. They did the additional walking and did not think it was too hard. They were able to keep doing it for a long time. Dr. Hill wants people all over America to try it. He says that it will make Americans much healthier.

She's more independent from her family members than is Antigone.

Answers

Answer:

She's timid compared to Antigone, who is very bold.She gives more weight to civil law over moral principles than does Antigone.

Explanation:

Ismene and Antigone are sisters and the daughters of Oedipus. Antigone however, is the bolder of the two and follows mora principles over the law.

Ismene on the other hand, remains in the shadow of her sister as she is more timid because she believes that she has a certain place in society and does not want to ruffle any feathers.

She also tries to follow the law over moral principles as she believes the law to be absolute which is why she does not follow Antigone's plan to bury their brother as she did not want to go against the King's proclamation.

Write debate supporting the motion Should Parents decide le Course of Study for for their children"​

Answers

Answer:

  Desire of parents — Every teen should be more grateful to his or her parents in this world. Parents are the ones who suffer a lot of difficulties and bring up their kids so that they can live a healthy and happier life. Every parent wants to see their children well settled in their life. Thus, they have the right to choose a better career for their kids.

  Reduces the pressure on children — Thinking of making a suitable career takes on a serious note mostly during the application times. So, children should leave the choice of their career on their parents and focus on the ongoing exams. They should not be under pressure in anyways.

  Maturity — Teens may sometimes land up in taking wrong decisions about their career. Even if parents do not make their career choice, they can at least guide their kids to make a good decision. Parents are the burning candle in the life of a student.

  Support — Parents provide immense help to their kids by guiding and choosing them a right career path. No parents would like to spoil their child's future by taking a wrong decision.

  Experience — We should always remember that parents are much more experienced than the children. They have seen the world better than their kids, and thus, their decision would be better and correct.

  Right Career Choice — Children should choose their career

  Right to choose – Every child has the right to choose their career, and they have the right to live their dreams.

  Knows himself/herself better – A child can only know his or her interests and abilities better than anyone else. They know their subjects and areas of interest and thus, can decide his or her career path quickly.

  Interesting – If children choose a career according to the wishes of their parents, they will have a boring academic life as they would face a lack of interest. College life is the best phase of a student's life. To enjoy this phase and make it more interesting, a child should choose his/her career path.

  Facing pressure – If you follow a career path chosen by your parents and which is not of your interest, you will have to meet a lot of challenges and pressure. To avoid such situations, choose a career which interests you the most.

  Parents like their kids might also have had some dream in their teenage. Most of the parents fail to achieve their goals due to family or financial issues. In such cases, parents may force their kids to adopt their dreams. They try to see themselves in their kids.

  Admission time is a crucial period in the life of most of the students. It is always better that parents and children should decide together on the career they would pursue. Teens can get the information about the latest trends while the parents can get their practical experience to the table to make a decision.

PLS HELP IF I DONT PASS I DIE, Read the passage from Sugar Changed the World.
As sugar planters fled from the revolution in Haiti,

slavery did nothing to improve conditions in Louisiana
In fact, the state that slaves called Lousy Anna was
the very worst place for an African in America; it was
the Caribbean all over again a death sentence.
In every single American slave state, the population of
enslaved people kept rising even after the slave trade
was abolished. That was because enough enslaved
children were born, lived, and grew to become adults.
There was just one exception to this rule: Louisiana, There was just one exception to this rule: Louisiana,
where the native-born enslaved population kept
dropping. Sugar was a killer.
Unlike the Caribbean, Louisiana has cold snaps. That
put an additional pressure on the sugar harvest. Not
only did the slaves need to harvest the cane in perfect
rhythm with the grinding mills, but the entire crop had
to be cut down between mid-October and December
This pace only increased when growers installed
improved, steam-powered mills. People needed to
work faster than the weather and to keep pace with machines. which details do the authors include to support the claim in this passage? select two options.
