11) Excerpt from The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass Frederick Douglass By far the larger part of the slaves know as little of their ages as horses know of theirs, and it is the wish of most masters within my knowledge to keep their slaves thus ignorant. Which figure of speech does the author use in to compare slaves to horses? A) a simile B) a metaphor C) a hyperbole D) personification

Answer:

Option C) a lonely island

Explanation:

The life of the African-Americans was characterized by poverty and isolation. This was because of the fact that the people were denied many privileges as the white Americans. In addition, the people had concerns that were not always readily addressed. In addition, the blacks suffered from abuse in silence. Thus, they were correctly referred to as a lonely island.

basically, European diseases wiped out almost all native Americans even before we made actual contact with most of them, and after that we just kept on conquering the remaining tribes.

The most common answer would be, they killed a lot of them. But I'll be a little specific:

- They brought unknown diseases to their bodies, killing them.

- They Claim almost all of their land, pushing them into Mexico.

- A good handful were put into slavery.

Answer:

He speaks of a lonely figure cutting grain and singing, developing Romantic ideas of Solitude in nature. Wordsworth interpreted the song, imagining the different topics she sings of. He takes time to watch as listens he witness the beauty of her voice and solitude, a Romantic value that opposes the busy life of  society. As Romantics appreciate the raw authenticity of basic life, Wordsworth admires her simple life as he ponders whether she sings of big problems the world faces or some  little mundane “matter of to-day”.

Explanation:

By emphasising the point that she is alone in her reaping and binding, he demonstrates the Solitude concept of Romanticism. In the first two verses, he focuses purely on her, excluding himself and created an image of a farmer entirely secluded from everything but nature. Here she is working with nature, farming crops and singing with no instrumental aid but her own natural voice. In the second stanza he continues to involve nature, comparing her voice to birds and mentioning islands and seas. His focus on nature and her solitude in it clearly connects the poem to Romanticism and shows how important this concept is to Wordsworth.

The answer should be "Last night Japanese forces attacked the Philippine Islands."

Hi the Japanese forces attacked the Philippine Islands . Have a great day!
