in act 2 of hamlet Is Polonius being a good father or not?
Answer:
I'm not so sure that Polonius was such a good father. He relates to his two children, Laertes and Ophelia, the same way he does with everyone else: he doesn't do a lot of thinking, is not very deep but is stubbornly opinionated, and he talks far more than he listens.
Everyone knows that Polonius is a doddering, garrulous, self-aggrandizing old fool. Just the kind of advisor a snake like Claudius would want: someone who is weak minded and easily used and manipulated. If he were a different kind of person to his children, fine, but he isn't.
When we see him with Laertes, who is about to go back to school, he gives Laertes a long, obvious, cliche-filled speech, replete with maxims that the learned Laertes must have heard a hundred times before. As he pontificates, Laertes listens dutifully, for he has already learned there would be no use in talking anyway. It's not that Polonius doesn't care for Laertes; it's just that he's all surface and no depth.

On the other hand, an object refers to the person, thing, idea or place that receives an action performed by the subject.
Also, a direct object is the specific thing a subject acts upon and as such it answers the question of what, whom or who.
Hence, the Pulitzer Prize which was awarded by the Columbia University to Alice Walker is a direct object.

In Flanders fields the canoes blow
Between the crosses, row by row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely sing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead.

In Flanders fields. Were we were loved: now we suffer

To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; will be yours to hold it high.
If you break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep

OBERON Then, my queen, in silence sad, Trip we after the night's shade: We the globe can compass soon, Swifter than the wandering moon. TITANIA Come, my lord, and in our flight Tell me how it came this night That I sleeping here was found With these mortals on the ground. What poetic device is used here? a. Rhyme c. Symbolism b. Repetition d. Metaphor Please select the best answer from the choices provided
Answer:
The poetic device being used in the excerpt is:
A. rhyme
Explanation:
We can define rhyme as the repetition of ending sounds in words, especially words that are at the end of poetry lines. Let's use the first lines of the excerpt as an example:
Fairy king, attend and mark:
I do hear the morning lark.
The words "mark" and "lark" sound quite similar, right? That is because they have the same final sounds /ark/, the only difference between them being the first consonant sound of each /m/ and /l/. This is an example of rhyme.
The same happens in the other lines, with the pairs "soon" and "moon", "flight" and "night", and "found" and "ground".

Read the passage and poem.
from The Wind in the Willows
The Mole had been working very hard all the morning, spring-cleaning his little home. First with brooms, then with dusters; then on
ladders and steps and chairs, with a brush and a pail of whitewash; till he had dust in his throat and eyes, and splashes of whitewash all over his
black fur, and an aching back and weary arms. Spring was moving in the air above and in the earth below and around him, penetrating even his
dark and lowly little house with its spirit of divine discontent and longing. It was small wonder, then, that he suddenly flung down his brush on the
floor, said 'Bother!' and 'o blow!' and also 'Hang spring-cleaning" and bolted out of the house without even waiting to put on his coat. Something
up above was calling him imperiously, and he made for the steep little tunnel which answered in his case to the gravelled carriage-drive owned by
animals whose residences are nearer to the sun and air. So he scraped and scratched and scrabbled and scrooged and then he scrooged again
and scrabbled and scratched and scraped, working busily with his little paws and muttering to himself,'Up we go! Up we go!' till at last, pop! his
How is the coming of spring addressed differently in the passage and poem?
O 1. In the passage, Mole dreads the arrival of spring because he doesn't like the work involved. In the poem, spring is a beautiful time
where the stream is full of life.
02. In the passage, Mole can't wait for spring but is too exhausted from spring-cleaning to leave his hole. In the poem, spring comes
silently and gently widens the stream.
3. In the passage, Mole works hard to prepare for spring and waits calmly in his burrow for its arrival. In the poem, spring is delayed,
and the stream remains blocked by snow.
04. In the passage, Mole longs for spring so much that he rushes to the surface to play in the meadow. In the poem, spring is a
destructive force that threatens the stream valley.
In the poem Mole can't wait for winters but is too exhausted from spring cleaning to leave his hole. Thus the option (2) is correct.
What is the theme of the poem?The Wind in the Willows is the poem related to the adventures between the several animals in the countryside. These animals behave like humans and talks to each other. It is all about the friendship among the animals and how the save their friend from the troubles.
During springs waiting ,mole was exhausted in the cleaning to he left his home and found a river where he met rat.
Thus in the poem springs comes silently and gently and widens the stream. The correct option is (2).

One day, I ended up offending my mother without the intention of offending her, I felt very sad about it and I ran to apologize and explain that my intensions were completely different. This situation happened when I heard a song by a singer that my mother was a fan, when she was a child. When I heard the music, I ran to show it to my mother and used the exact words "when I heard it, I automatically remembered you." The problem was that the music was a strong critic of situations that my mother had already lived in the past and because of my words, she thought I was offending her. However, I meant that I remembered her because of the singer. I had not paid attention to the lyrics of the song and not even the way I was talking about it, but when I realized that my mother was offended, I went to apologize and explain the situation quickly.
