The Dawn’s Awake
By Otto Leland Bohanan
The Dawn’s awake!
A flash of smoldering flame and fire
Ignites the East. Then, higher, higher,
O’er all the sky so gray, forlorn1,
The torch of gold is borne.
The Dawn’s awake!
The dawn of a thousand dreams and thrills.
And music singing in the hills
A paean2 of eternal spring.
Voices the new awakening.
The Dawn’s awake!
Whispers of pent-up harmonies,
With the mingled fragrance of the trees;
Faint snatches of half-forgotten song--
Fathers! Torn and numb,--
The boon of light we craved, awaited long,
Has come, has come!
1Pitifully sad and abandoned or lonely
2A song of praise or triumph
Directions: Identify the type of figurative language that best fits the bolded words or phrases. Then explain how each one helps develop imagery within the poem. Remember that your responses should be at least 3-5 sentences in length.
The Dawn’s awake!

The Black Land
By Joseph Warren Beach
I will pough the land,
Turning up the black soil.
I will ride upon this heaving surface
As a boat rides upon the water.
Even as a boat
Cleaving the water with an eager keel,
I have run a furrow1
Straight across the ridges.
I will sow down this field,
Scattering gems.
With both hands will I scatter
Quivering emeralds out of a bottomless pouch.
As I tread the loam2
My feet sink deep.
The black earth embraces my ankles
And clings to my bent knees.
I sing as I go
Scattering emeralds.
The wind sings upon my lips,
And pearls stream off my neck and forehead.
I am bathed in a sweat of pearls.
Eyes straight forward
Rest on a brightening ultimate slope.
1A long narrow trench made in the ground by a plow.
2Soil with equal amounts of sand, silt, and clay.
Directions: Identify the type of figurative language that best fits the bolded words or phrases. Then explain how each one helps develop imagery within the poem. Remember that your responses should be at least 5-7 sentences in length.
I will ride upon this heaving surface / As a boat rides upon the water.
The black earth embraces my ankles / And clings to my bent knees.
And pearls stream off my neck and forehead. I am bathed in a sweat of pearls.

text that lists benefits of owning a dog from least important to greatest importance uses _____ order
Answers
Answer:
I saw this question and answer here https://brainly.com/question/18348867 sooo
Explanation:
Answer:
5. climatic
Arranging things in a sequence, where each things precedes or succedes another is called ordering. Ordering can be done in several ways, depending on ordering criteria.
For example, we can arrange events chronologically, which means we arrange them based on the time period when they occured; from the most to the least recent event, or vice versa.
Spatial arrangement means that we list things based on their position in space; from right to left, or from top to bottom.
Logical order is when we place things in a manner that each one logically follows the previous.
However, in this example, we have climatic order, which means that things are arranged in an order from the least important to the most important, making the final thing on the list the most important, or strongest, or the best.

In which sentence does the verb agree with the subject?
A. The tone and pitch of the sparrow's song is pure and clear.
B. Hermit thrushes and wood thrushes is a delight to hear.
C. The lark and the robin are loved for their music.
D. Sunflower seeds or corn attract a variety of birds.
Answers
Answer:
The sentence in which the verb agrees with the subject is:
C. The lark and the robin are loved for their music.
Explanation:
With just a couple of rules, we are able to answer this question easily. First, when we have a compound subject joined by "and", the verb should be plural, since it refers to both elements in the subject. That is why letters A and B are wrong. Letter C, however, does present a verb with a plural conjugation, which makes it correct.
When a compound subject is joined by "or", and one of the elements is plural, the verb will agree with the element that is nearer. Letter D is incorrect because "attract" should agree with "corn" and not "seeds".

When I was eighteen I decided I wanted to travel alone. I bought a ticket to Australia, I packed my bags and I left for the airport. I had to do a scale in Italy and then I had to take the flight there to go to Australia. I had to wait four more hours and I was sleepy so I decided to take a nap and set an alarm to wake up in time for my flight. But I didn't. I missed it and I got stranded in the airport for one whole day. It was the first thing that went wrong but not the only one. When I finally arrived to Australia, I had a lot of bad experiences. I felt lonely, I lost money and I missed home. However, I also made friends for life, I discovered amazing landscapes and I had the time of my life. So, nevertheless, it was my best experience.
Explanation:
To complete this exercise, you have to write a story that ends with the line given. Since the line has the word "nevertheless" included, you should write about something that was bad or went wrong but ended up being "the best experience". It's important to follow the rules given, which are the word limit and the different parts of a story.

Look Back at Your Prompt/Rubric/etc
Go Back Through Your Introduction and Conclusion
Have Someone Proofread Your Essay to see if you did good
Use Quotations
Read Your Paper Out Loud to see if it is good
Add Supporting Evidence
Ensure that You’ve Included Everything
Breakup Paragraphs
Answer:
Well first off, start at the beginning. Make sure you include sufficient background information, a good hook, and a good thesis. Background info are usually 2-4 sentences. The hook and thesis should be 1 sentence. (2 is max and pushing it).
For the body paragraphs:
Thesis statements at the beginning should be 1 sentence long.
The evidence should be good to well support what you are explaining, informing, entertaining, or arguing about. In a body paragraph, there is usually 1 to 2 evidences. 2 is better because it supports your reasons more. Along with these evidences comes the elaboration. These elaborations seem to want to be 1 sentence long, but don't let it make you. You should write maybe 2-4 sentences of elaboration, with 4 kind of pushing it. Make sure these sentences aren't run-on sentences as it can mislead information and take the reader away from the main topic. Transitions/restating the reason should take 1-2 sentences (2 pushing it a little).
If you are doing a argumentative essay, you will also include the counterclaim/argument. This will be 1-3 sentences long, where you describe the other side, give A reason why their side is somewhat better, than come back with saying why your reason is superior to the counter argument.
Finally, you have the conclusion. This will be restating your claim/thesis, adding a little background/forward thinking into it as well. Try leaving the reader with something to think about. The conclusions should usually be around 4 or 5 sentences.

Is it acceptable to commit a crime at any point in life?
Answers
Answer:
uh...technically no...but as long as you dont get caught...
Explanation:
Answer:
First of all, I don't think that most people who commit crimes really think it's okay, especially in a general sense. Not even specifically to their circumstances, for the most part. I have personally had contact with many non-violent offenders and most have accepted, to some degree, that they are guilty of committing a crime.
So, yes in my opinion there absolutely are times when it is alright (even a natural duty in some cases ) to commit a crime, but only if one is motivated by self preservation or the preservation of others; however no one has a right to take the life of other innocent persons no matter what the motivation may be.

Next let's look at Answer C; Something completely removed from our own lives. If something isn't real it was probably a possibility we were thinking of it in our own life's. But if we watched a movie or television show we would have that knowledge removed from our everyday life's
