what is Punctuation?Punctuation helps convey the precise meaning of a sentence – and in fact can even change the meaning, as in this well-known example:
A woman, without her man, is nothing.
A woman: without her, man is nothing.
what is capitalization?Like punctuation, capitalization helps convey information. The first word of every sentence is capitalized, signaling that a new sentence has begun. Proper nouns – the name of a particular person, place, or thing – are capitalized to indicate uniqueness. However, it is not correct to use capitalization merely to make a word look or seem important.

Read the excerpt from chapter 8 of The Travels of Marco Polo.
Let us go on now to tell of a large city which forms part of the province of Aden but has a petty ruler of its own. This city, which lies about 400 miles north-west of the port of Aden, is called Shihr. It is ruled by a count, who maintains strict justice in his domain. He has several cities and towns under his sway but is himself subject to the sultan of Aden. The people are Saracens and worship Mahomet. The city has a very good port; for I assure you that many merchant-ships come here well loaded with goods from India, and from here they export many goods to India. In particular they export innumerable fine chargers and sturdy pack-horses of great worth and price, on which the merchants make a handsome profit.
What are most likely the author's purposes for writing this text? Select two options.
to entertain readers by telling them about the ruler of Shihr
to inform readers by describing the city of Shihr

Every so often I get this question. My answer is A, but you have to read more of the poem. It is a wonderful example of fall and response of what a man and wife think of their lot in life. When you read on in A, you find that all he wants is 2 store bought suits that he could buy at the same time. He wants a bottle of gin. He wants a wife that supports him. [That's the bad one. He's not totally content with his life.] He wants the furniture to be paid for. She wants to feel better about her daughter being married and her son "most grown" and working. I'd pick A but if you have feelings of your own, go with them. This is the only time I can remember recommending something that is not written in the excerpt that has quoted. Call from her.

At the time Freeman wrote "The Revolt of 'Mother'" women's role in society was very different from that of today. In an essay of at least 150 words, explain how these issues have changed over the last century, yet are still with us now.
In "The Revolt of Mother" Freeman described women's role in the 19th century, when women were the only ones responsible for the household chores and for raising the children. In fact, these were the only things they were supposed to be occupied with as they wouldn't go to school like boys nor would they find a job. Freeman also describes the position of the mother in the family, where she couldn't participate in decision-making which concerned the house and the family including her. All important decisions were taken by the husband and even if the wife disagreed she couldn't do anything about it.
Today, in the Western world, women have gained the right to education and to equal opportunities in employment. Their role in the family has also changed as today the father participates in the household chores as well and he is also responsible for bringing up the children. Nowadays, the women can take important decisions concerning their lives and their families.
However, there some remnants from that era that are still with us today. For example, even if women have gained the right to vote there are still less women in the Parliaments than men. In addition to this, there are plenty of jobs in which they prefer to hire men or where women and men are not equally paid. Last but not least, many people still believe that women should have a different role in the family than men.
In conclusion, although the position of women has improved a lot since the era of Freeman, there are still many issues to be resolved.
"The Revolt of "Mother"" is a short story that was written by author Mary E. Wilkins Freeman and it was publised originally in 1890. This story narrates the life of a common 19th century housewife, Sarah Penn, who combines two very different ways of facing problems; the first is the usual submissive woman, mother and wife, who performs her chores despite the difficulties and aggravations she faces, and at the same time, she is the woman who dares to go against her husband´s wishes, setting off a huge scandal in her town, as it had never been heard that a woman would dare to confront any man, much less her husband, regarding a decision he had made. In a nutshell, "The Revolt of "Mother"" shows what women had to face during the 19th century, with a predetermined role as future mothers and submissive wives, who had no say in anything, but at the same time, it confronts this with a topic that had already started to make a lot of noise, especially in America, and it was the woman´s role in society.
Although most of the situations regarding women which are shown in the story have now changed, it is also safe to say that some of them remain, and are still viewed as valid, in certain societies of the world. For example, in many countries, and even in America, some people still believe that the role of a woman is essentially as a mother and a wife. Women nowadays, it is true, have voting rights, choice rights and a say in their futures, and many never marry or become mothers, but the truth is that in the society of today, people still think that women are essentially this. So, although the submissive and accepting personality trait shown by Sarah, has changed a lot in today´s world, we still see countries in which women are considered and seen as Sarah was seen by the people of her town. And those who dare to step outside of this model, are shunned.
In the end, women have gained a lot of ground as far as changing the way they are seen and are expected to act goes, but it is also true that in many respects, women are still seen, and are expected to act, as submissive housewives and mothers.
The ducks and geese flew south. Compound, simple, or complex?
A. Complex
B. simple
C. Compound
C. Compound because it uses “and” to put together two sentence's.
The sentence 'The ducks and geese flew south' is a simple sentence. A compound sentence needs two independent clauses, each with its own subject and verb.
Explanation:The sentence 'The ducks and geese flew south' is a simple sentence. Despite the 'and' in the sentence, it is not a compound sentence. A compound sentence is characterized by having two independent clauses joined by a coordinator such as 'and', 'or', 'but', etc. Each clause would need its own subject and verb and could stand-alone as a complete sentence. In this case, 'The ducks' and 'geese' are considered as compound subjects carrying out the same action, hence it is a simple sentence.

Which of the following is NOT a type of conflict?
A. The youths struggle of fears
B. The fat soliders fight with a young girl.
C. the army travels through the woods.
The correct answer is option C: the army travels through the woods.
A conflict is a major dispute or verbal fight which usually lasts for a long time. As a result, an organized military force by itself that travels through the woods does not involve a quarrel of any kind.
In sentence A, young people make a forceful effort to get rid of their anxiety, while in sentence B, there is a conflict between the fat soldiers and the young girl.
Conflict generally involves struggle between opposing forces. Both the youth's struggle of fears and the fat soldier's fight with a young girl depict conflict. But the instance of the army traveling through the woods lacks a clear opposing force, hence, does not represent conflict.
Explanation:The question is asking which scenario does not illustrate conflict, a key literary element that drives a story. Conflict generally involves a struggle between opposing forces, typically between a protagonist and an antagonist.
The youth's struggle with fears - This represents internal conflict, a battle within one's self.The fat soldier's fight with a young girl. - This is an example of person-person conflict, a struggle between two characters.The army's travel through the woods - This is not considered a conflict since there's no apparent struggle between opposing forces.Therefore, the answer is C. the army travels through the woods.

It is not clear whether the narrator is talking about the last piece of jewelry he made or the last message his Dad left.
The bracelet was the most beautiful because it was made after practice with the other pieces.
The bracelet was the most beautiful because it represented his dad’s last words.
We can explain the ambiguity in the text "I made her other Morse code jewelry with dad's messages - a necklace, an anklet, some dangly earrings, a tiara - but the bracelet was definitely the most beautiful, probably because it was the last, which made it the most precious," in the following manner:

What is ambiguity?Ambiguity happens when a text allows for more than one interpretation of its meaning.Take this sentence as an example: "Lisa saw her sister, but she didn't talk to her." Now, who didn't talk to whom. Was it Lisa who didn't talk to her sister?

Left
A is correct. The verb tense does not disagree.
B is incorrect. She opened her wallet (that's now). The 20s were gone (that's past)
C is correct.
D paid and ate disagree. paid happened yesterday. ate happened right now. This sentence is incorrect.
E was afraid is past. Up to date does not quite agree. Looks like A and C.
Second (Scrooge 2 choices).
By now you should understand that D and E are rubbish. He wants to live the rest of his life in the way the spirits have dictated he should -- especially the spirit of Christmas yet to Come.
There's no pretense in Scrooge, none what ever. He has been through the very worst night of his life. B can join D and E.
That pretty much leaves you with A and C. They are both correct and are infinity better than BD and E. The wording of A could be better, but it's OK as a choice.
Three (3rd from the left)
You have to pick the line beginning "Why wasn't he natural during his lifetime." Those lines express the very essence of dying alone. There is no one there to mourn his passing. What remains behind if one takes what the scavengers are saying to be true, is collected by the old woman and her cohorts and when they've picked over everything, it's as though Scrooge had never lived at all.
I'm leaving you to come up with a second one if you think there is one.
Right
I protagonist does not have to be anyone whom you would feel sympathetic about. They do not support all other central characters. They don't have to change in any way. (Although they usually do).
The choice is between A and E. If notes came with this question, you should consult them. Whatever the notes say is what you have to pick and both are possible and since this is English Literature there could be another one that is the answer. Marginally I would pick E but that would never be true of someone like Steve McQueen in many of his movies.

which phase of the writing process involves checking the content to see if the essay is sufficiently detailed and the adequately supports the thesis statement? A. drafting phase / B. revising phase / c. prewriting phase / d. editing phase / can someone tell me the answer plsss and thank you
The correct answer is B. Revising phase

In general terms the writing process involves multiple stages or phases, this includes the prewriting phase, the writing or drafting phase, the revising phase, the editing phase, and the publishing phase. From these phases, there are two phases that involve checking the text written during the drafting or writing phase these are the revising phase and the editing phase, but in each of these, different aspects of the text are checked.
In the case of the editing phase during this phase, the writer analyses the ideas presented in the text, if these are connected with each other and whether the details included are enough support the thesis statement in the case of essays or develop the main idea in other texts. On the other hand, in the editing phase issues related to grammar, spelling, punctuation and similar are checked. This means the phase of the writing process that involves checking the content to see if the essay is sufficiently detailed to support the thesis is the Revising phase.

What is the theme of the stolen party
The theme of “The Stolen Party” is that we will always be what we come from.
The Stolen Party by Liliana Heker explores themes of class disparity, innocence, and the loss of innocence, highlighting the harsh realities of societal structures through the story of a young girl named Rosaura who attends a birthday party. It portrays how social class and divisions profoundly affect personal interactions and self-perception.
Explanation:The story The Stolen Party by Liliana Heker explores several potent themes such as class disparity, innocence, and the loss of innocence through the experiences of a young girl named Rosaura. The central theme revolves around class differences and social inequality, which are vividly depicted through Rosaura's interactions and the unfolding events at a birthday party she attends, believing she is a guest like any other. Heker uses symbolism and character interactions to highlight the harsh realities of societal structures and the impact they have on personal relationships and self-perception.
One of the powerful messages conveyed through Rosaura's experiences is the painful realization of social boundaries that exist despite personal qualities, abilities, or friendships. The birthday party, intended to be a space of joy and celebration, becomes a setting for the unfolding of these stark social realities. This motif is further explored through the metaphor of the magic show at the party, symbolizing the illusions people create or believe in, and the moment of revelation when Rosaura realizes her position in this social hierarchy.
Ultimately, The Stolen Party is a narrative that delves into the themes of social class, innocence, and the harsh awakening to societal structures. It poses a critical look at how societal norms and class divisions influence personal interactions and shape individuals' experiences from a very young age.
