Once again, Declan has failed to spike the ball over the net. His volleyball team is getting annoyed with him even though he is great during the rest of the game. Which of the following skills should Declan work on to improve his ability to spike the ball?Speed Agility Balance Power

Answers

The skill that Declan should work on to improve his ability to spike the ball is the last option - power. Since he cannot get the ball over the net, it means that he isn't strong enough to do that, or rather his technique doesn't have enough strength. Thus, what he needs to work on is power. Speed and agility refer to the same thing, and balance won't help him here.

The answer is power here !!

Which of the following choices best describes the error in this sentence? The man is a scientist with a keen sense of observation and who dedicates long hours in the lab.a. fragment
b. misplaced modifier
c. uneven parallelism
d. dangling modifier

Answers

C. uneven parallelism

Uneven parallelism means that the clauses within your sentence have the same grammatical structure. If you look at the clauses in the sentence "with a keen sense of observation" and "who dedicated long hours in the lab" they do not have the same grammatical structure. Thus the sentence suffers from uneven parallelism. 


Summarize the meaning and purpose of "As Weary Pilgrim, Now at Rest." Describe the view that Anne Bradstreet takes in the poem.

Answers

As you look at the first half of the poem, Anne narrates what she "sees." It is a Christian person who dies and finds rest in heaven at the end of his/her life.

In the second half of the poem, Anne expresses her desire to be just like that Pilgrim, that she herself would find that rest at the end of her life. She is not saying that she wanted to die now, but simply basks in her eternal resting place that she looks forward to when all the hardships of this world are done. 

In "As Weary Pilgrim, Now at Rest," the speaker wishes another pilgrim farewell as death has taken him. She’s relieved that he no longer has to suffer and can rest peacefully. She too wishes to one day be free from these woes and ailments that age has brought upon her and then be with her deceased loved one. The poet views death as a calming and soothing event as seen in lines such as "This body shall in silence sleep" and "Oh, how I long to be at rest." The poet also seems to long for the afterlife, as corroborated by lines such as "And soar on high among the blest" and "Then soul and body shall unite/And of their Maker have the sight."
