What character trait would Elliot most likely need in order to overcome obstacles along the trail
Grass by Carl Sandburg
1. An allusion is a brief and indirect reference to a person, place, thing or idea of historical, cultural, literary or political significance. It does not describe in detail the person or thing to which it refers. Identify the allusions and discuss why these particular ones are used.
2. A. The dominant rhetorical strategy is personification (giving human qualities to nonhuman objects or ideas). What is personified?
B. How does this help produce the tone of the poem? Remember, tone is how the author feels about the subject.
3. If one of Sandburg’s contentions is that people forget about war and fallen heroes, does the fact that many war memorials and statues, cannons, and plaques dot the landscape at the site of the Battle of Gettysburg contradict this?
Carl Sandburg's poem 'Grass' uses allusions to historical battlefields and personification to create a reflective tone on the nature of memory and the futility of war. The presence of memorials, while aiming to preserve history, might not be sufficient to prevent the gradual fading of individual memories over time.
Explanation:In Carl Sandburg's poem Grass, the allusions refer to various notable battlefields such as Austerlitz, Waterloo, Gettysburg, Ypres, and Verdun. These allusions are used to highlight the historical significance of the battles that took place at these locations, implying the vast number of lives lost and the ease with which history can be forgotten despite such monumental events.
The poem also prominently features personification by giving the grass human characteristics, like the ability to cover and 'forget' the dead from these battles. This personification creates a somber and reflective tone, leading readers to contemplate the transient nature of human memory and the futility of war.
Regarding the existence of monuments and memorials at the site of the Battle of Gettysburg, it can be argued that while these structures seek to prevent the forgetting of the past, Sandburg may suggest that the natural passage of time and the continuous cycle of life, represented by the grass growing over battlefields, will eventually obscure individual memories, despite physical attempts to preserve them.

The praying mantis is a member of the Mantid group of insects. Mantids come in many shapes and sizes and are found all over the world. Some have patterns on their bodies that help them look like the ground. Some are bright green to blend in with leaves and plants. One special mantis is bright pink and looks like an orchid. The mantis is such a strange and engaging creature that many people keep them as pets. For many reasons, mantids have fascinated humans for many years. First, mantids show an amazing mastery of hunting skills. Mantids eat a wide variety of insects, including moths, crickets, bees, flies, grasshoppers, other mantids, and even, on occasion, small birds and snakes. They can capture prey many times larger than they are. Their powerful armor and amazing hunting skills make them quite effective. They have large powerful front legs, with spikes that help them hold on to prey. Their head can turn almost entirely around to follow prey without moving. Their front legs are so powerful and so fast that it is hard to see them move when capturing prey. One second their legs are empty and the next they are clutching tightly to something they have caught. Mantids are also stealthy. They wait, very still, very patiently for prey to come into sight. They also make slight swaying movements, to mimic leaves and grass moved by the wind. They focus intently on their victim. Then they pounce, suddenly, rarely missing their target. They are so successful they can triple in size every few months by molting when they outgrow their exoskeletons. They start out as nymphs, able to capture only prey that is smaller than they are. They end their lives about a year later becoming predators that can take down prey as large as hummingbirds. Finally, they are very personable, as far as insects go. They have a large, triangular-shaped head with large eyes. This alien-like appearance makes them quite cute. When you come across them in the garden, you can tell right away they are aware of you. They follow your movements as if to assess if you are either something to eat or something that will eat them. The little ones will accept rides on your finger if you are gentle. But be careful—they can jump surprisingly far even when small. If they think your freckle is prey, you may be surprised to find a mantis on your nose. As far as predatory insects go, the mantis is one of the most impressive. Gardeners love to find them in on vegetables because mantids eat many insects that damage crops. However, they may also eat some insects that help a gardener—like bees. Regardless, the mantis is a fascinating insect, and if you happen to see one hunting in the wild, consider yourself lucky. Read the following line from the text: As far as predatory insects go, the mantis is one of the most impressive. Gardeners love to find them in on vegetables because mantids eat many insects that damage crops. Based on the text, insects that are predatory are most likely which of the following? Collectors Hiders Hunters Imitators

Use the strategy of context clues to determine the BEST definition for pate in line (15).
The best definition for 'pate' from the context of the poem is 'head or scalp,' as it suggests a part of the body that can be charred by lightning.
Explanation:The student has asked to determine the BEST definition for the word 'pate' in line 15 using context clues. Based on the context of the poem, where it mentions 'the lightning left a char on the elder’s pate,' 'pate' can be understood as another term for the head or scalp.

Which helps develop characters in a personal narrative?
What helps to develop the characters in a personal narrative is the description. Narration is a type of text in which real or imaginary facts are told. We call "character" to each of the imaginary inventions of a writer who give life to the story told. Through them the facts, actions or events of a narration are developed. They can be real or fictitious. Throughout the work they are presented by the narrator, who gives them physical and psychological characteristics, allowing, in this way, the reader to form an idea of each character. The character of each one of them and the environment in which they develop will determine their behavior and, consequently, their way of acting.

I can kill and clean a hog as mercilessly as a man. C. Sometimes I dream a dream in which Dee and I are suddenly brought together. D. My hair glistens in the hot bright lights.
Answer:
B. I can kill and clean a hog as mercilessly as a man.
Explanation:
In "Everyday Use," we encounter a mother and her two daughters, Dee and Maggie. The mother in the story is a strong and hard worker, as she explains in these lines. She compares herself to a man, and in doing so, she realizes she is equally capable than any of them. She tells us that she can kill and clean a hog in the same merciless way, which requires significant strength and hard work.
How can group discussions be used outside of class? Check all that apply.
to gather opinions
to make decisions faster
to take a break from school
to brainstorm new ideas
to get ready for tests
to come to a decision
Answer:
- to gather opinions
- to brainstorm new ideas
- to get ready for tests
- to come to a decision
Explanation:
Group thinking can't be used to make faster decisions because a group has to go through the opinion of each member of the group and the debate about why they think that. But it does help to decide something in the general sense. It also helps to gather opinions because there is more than one opinion in the mix, which is also a good way to brainstorm and learn new things.

Why should we have gun control and what are the cons and the pros of having gun control.
Putting it simply, gun control doesn't work. Taking away guns from law abiding Americans only makes mass shootings easier. Do you really think that if you couldn't get a gun legally, mass shootings would stop? Mass shooters will still find a way to get guns. The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. I think that everyone should have a gun and a concealed carry permit. I know what you're thinking,"But Jaxon, that puts more guns on people! They could easily cause a mass shooting!" Yes, it could. But for every bad guy there is over 10 good guys. 10 vs 1.
You can probably name some of the biggest mass shootings off of memory.
Orlando, Las Vegas, Parkland.
Can you name the ones that were stopped by a good guy?
No.
You only hear from what the media is saying. It's the media's fault. If the media didn't say these mass shooter's names and give them fame, they would stop. An evil person that opens fire on a group of innocent people doesn't expect bullets to fly back at them. Give bullets back to them, they will take their own life.
