Answer:
In this poem, Countee Cullen (1903-1946) uses irony to reveal the ridiculous beliefs that support racism. The notion of a woman, presumably a white woman, firmly believing that, even in Heaven, her class status, based on discriminatory biases that should not be considered godly, will provide her with poor blacks to do everything for her while she sleeps.
Explanation:
There´s also an allusion to biblical notions through the words "heaven," "celestial chores," and "cherubs," signifying the existence of a spiritual afterlife, in which, this woman seems to absurdly believe racism prevails.
Answer:
In his poem "For a Lady I Know," Countee Cullen depicts the clash between the upper and lower classes of society. The poem is assumed to be about upper-class white Americans who treat African Americans poorly. He points out the audacity of the upper class to presume that African Americans would continue to wait on them forever, even after death:
She even thinks that up in heaven
Her class lies late and snores
While poor black cherubs rise at seven
To do celestial chores.
This poem suggests that white Americans don’t want to help improve the lifestyle of poor African Americans but are comfortable with the minority races serving them forever.

George Takei's dad, who suffered the most under the conditions of Japanese American internment, said to George:
“Our democracy is a people’s democracy, and it can be as great as the people can be, but it is also as fallible as the people are,”
What does he mean by this ?
Answer:
He meant that democracy is not perfect, but rather susceptible to huge and harmful failures, which must be tackled.
Explanation:
George Takei is an American actor of Japanese descent. His family was forced to abandon their home and all their possessions to live in the Japanese concentration camps, formed by the American government during World War II. This was an extremely shameful moment in American history, as it shows the great level of instability, prejudice and intolerance towards immigrants and descendants. These factors are totally against the concepts preached by democracy, which is one of the great prides of the American population.
George Takei's father, as one of the great failures of American democracy, shows that this democracy is imperfect and capable of absurd cruelties, contrary to what it should be.
Read the excerpt about Annie Londonderry from Chapter 4 of Wheels of Change. 1 Finally, on June 25, 1894, she was off. 2 She pedaled to New York, over good roads and bad, in eight days, but with stops to rest and earn money, she didn't reach Chicago, Illinois, until September 24. 3 It had taken her three months to travel approximately 1,300 miles, and she had more than 20,000 miles left to cover. 4 Annie Londonderry thought about giving up, but instead made some changes, trading her heavy skirts for bloomers and her Columbia bike for a much lighter men's Sterling. 5 She also decided to head east, riding back to New York and crossing the Atlantic on an ocean liner. 6 Annie traveled largely by ship through Europe, the Mideast, and Asia, taking short cycling trips at various points along the route. 7 She reached San Francisco, California, on March 23, 1895, and pedaled to Chicago to complete the journey. What would remain unclear if the writer had not included the statistic in sentence 3
Answer: why Annie made the changes she did
Explanation:
The first sentence stated that "Finally, on June 25, 1894, she was off". The sentence along with the second sentence doesn't give information regarding the reason for Annie made the changes that she made.
The sentence three stated that "It had taken her three months to travel approximately 1,300 miles, and she had more than 20,000 miles left to cover".
Without the writer not including the statistic in sentence 3, it'll have been unclear why Annie made the changes she did.

exposition
rising action
Answer:
climax
Explanation:
While conflict is introduced early in a narrative so that the issues may begin to be worked through for eventual conclusion, the lessons learned will be reflected in the climax of the work. The conflict needs to be resolved prior the conclusion unless the goal of the piece is an open ending.

Write any two environment education
Answer:
Environmental education (EE) refers to organized efforts to teach how natural environments function, and particularly, how human beings can manage behavior and ecosystems to live sustainably. It is a multi-disciplinary field integrating disciplines such as biology, chemistry, physics, ecology, earth science, atmospheric science, mathematics, and geography. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) states that EE is vital in imparting an inherent respect for nature amongst society and in enhancing public environmental awareness. UNESCO emphasises the role of EE in safeguarding future global developments of societal quality of life (QOL), through the protection of the environment, eradication of poverty, minimization of inequalities and insurance of sustainable development (UNESCO, 2014a). The term often implies education within the school system, from primary to post-secondary. However, it sometimes includes all efforts to educate the public and other audiences, including print materials, websites, media campaigns, etc.. There are also ways that environmental education is taught outside the traditional classroom. Aquariums, zoos, parks, and nature centers all have ways of teaching the public about the environment

Read the excerpt from The Odyssey.
Now Zeus the lord of cloud roused in the north
a storm against the ships, and driving veils
of squall moved down like night on land and sea.
The bows went plunging at the gust; sails
cracked and lashed out strips in the big wind.
We saw death in that fury, dropped the yards,
unshipped the oars, and pulled for the nearest lee:
then two long days and nights we lay offshore
worn out and sick at heart, tasting our grief,
until a third Dawn came with ringlets shining.
Which key details should be included in a paraphrase of this passage? Check all that apply.
The storm was a direct result of Zeus’s fury at the men.

In addition to the structure of the letter, consider the organizational structure you'll use to present your ideas. A logical structure will help your writing be more coherent. Keep your purpose, audience, topic, and ideas in mind as you decide. What organizational structure will you use to write your letter?
Hello. You have not informed the type of letter or the subject that the letter will deal with. This makes it impossible for me to answer your question. However, to help you out I'm going to tell you the types of structures you can use in your letter. Hope this is helpful for you.
First, it is important that you know that structure is how the information in your letter will be presented. This structure can be of the Chronological type, if in the letter, you are talking about an order of events that happened in a sequence of different dates or times. The structure can also be of the Comparison/Contrast type, if the letter is shown the similarities and differences between elements. The letter may also present the Problem-Solution structure, if it is showing how certain problems and ways to solve them, or how those problems are solved.
In addition, the card may have the structure called Cause and Effect, which occurs when the letter features certain elements that exist because they were caused by other elements. Finally, the letter can have a structure called Descriptive, which occurs when the letter is describing something or someone.

Dear Mrs. Lowry:
I spent most of my life looking only far enough ahead to think about what I was going to do the next weekend. Thoughts of the future—one year, four years, 20 years away—never really crossed my mind. I definitely didn’t think about my future children or my children’s children and the world they would live in.
Then I read The Giver. At first, I didn’t understand this world you described. People had no recollection of the past, no understanding of animals. What had happened? I will admit that, in the beginning, I thought, “Wow, this is a perfect world.” There wasn’t any bullying; there wasn’t any pain.
But then I read about Release. I put the book down and tried to rationalize how the society could do this with a clean conscience. I realized that they didn’t know any better. They had no understanding of what they were actually doing. Or did they? Maybe Release was just acceptable in that society. I still think about that from time to time.
I closed your book with two new life lessons. First, Jonas only knew true joy after he felt true pain. That reminder helps me through tough days. Second, it is up to us to make sure that future generations will be able to ride a sled down a snowy hill and feel the love of family.
Sincerely,

Drawing a Conclusion about the Two Cultures
Explain which culture's values more closely match your
own, and why
Intro
Answer:
The Haida people's values are more like my own because the Haida value compassion. I prefer when people are helpful and kind, but the Māori people seem to enjoy conflicts and competition more.
Explanation: i just did the assignment
When drawing a conclusion about which culture's values more closely match one's own, it is important to first identify the cultural values of each culture and then compare them to one's own values.
What is culture?Culture refers to a group's or society's shared beliefs, values, customs, behaviours, and artefacts.
When deciding which culture's values are more similar to one's own, it is critical to first identify the cultural values of each culture and then compare them to one's own values.
Understanding one's own values and beliefs, as well as the cultural values of the two cultures being compared, is required.
One approach is to make a list of one's own values and then compare them to the cultural values of each of the two cultures being compared.
Another strategy is to consider one's personal experiences and interactions with members of each culture.
Thus, the decision about which culture's values more closely match one's own is a personal one and can vary depending on individual perspectives and experiences.

I hope you're all doing well. It's been a long time since we've seen each other. However, in a few weeks, we'll be able to meet again.

Which of the following is the best example of one-way listening?
A) a dialog between a woman and her dog
B) a classroom conversation
C)a political speech
D) a dialog between a husband and wife
Answer:
The correct answer is C. A political speech is the best example of one-way listening.
Explanation:
It is called "one-way listening" to communicational situations in which there is a clearly defined sender and receiver, but in which the sender (who is speaking) and the receiver (who is listening) never exchange their roles. That is, where there is no conversation, but a single speech by the sender, while the receiver only functions as a listener. Thus, a political discourse, in which there is only one speaker and the listeners never participate in the message, is a clear example of one-way listening.
