Here's my claim: Authors write about places that are important to them or affected them during their childhood. In the poem "In the longhouse, Oneida Museum" by Roberta hill, I need to get 3 quotes to support my claim. I don't know which ones to choose, I need help
If that is your writing to the left of my answer, you really don't need an awful lot of help. You write very well.
That's the good part.
The poem is difficult. And you are absolutely right about your assertion of childhood contributing to who and what we are, especially for a poet.
So here are the parts I would choose if I were in your shoes.
House of five fires, you never raised me. Those nights when the throat of the furnace wheezed and rattled its regular death, I wanted your wide door,The reason I would pick this one is because you are going to have to find out what the house of five fires means. It comes up again later on, but it's here right at the very beginning. What wide door and why did she want it. You likely need to explain why she uses the furnace (which is old and near collapse). What setting is she developing. In this poem everything is important, but she's making a definite reference to her childhood.
The house I left as a child now seems a shell of sobs. Each year I dream it sinister and dig in my heels to keep out the intruder banging at the back door. My eyes burn from cat urine under the basement stairsIf this isn't a guiding memory from childhood, I have no idea what might be. You might argue that this is going to be hard to connect to the first quotation and you might very well be right, but it is at least very clear, and very sad.
Then there's the conclusion
When desolation comes, I’ll hide your ridgepole in my spine and melt into crow call, reminding my children that spiders near your door joined all the reddening blades of grass without oil, hasp or uranium.You might need a little bit of help with all three of them. Get your interpretation from google. When you are sure what someone else is saying digest it and then tie it up with your own words. You do have the skills. Just go for it.
This is a very sad memory she's conveying. She's not had a good childhood would you say? And yet ...
The drama of it must be worth something.
Which sentence demonstrates subjective writing?
A) A wetlands ecosystem represents a complex food chain, ranging from herbivores and prey to top-level predators.
B) The survival of a mangrove, such as those found along Florida's coast, depends on recycling detritus made by falling leaves.
C) Burrowing crabs, snapping shrimp, and bristle worms are primary consumers of mangrove waste.
D) Construction companies that destroy mangroves to build houses are ignorant and greedy.
D since subjective means that opinions change from person to person. In other words, people that appear greedy to me may appear righteous to someone else.
The correct answer is D) Construction companies that destroy mangroves to build houses are ignorant and greedy.
Explanation:
Subjective writing includes the feelings, perceptions, judgments, and beliefs of the writer. This is the opposite of objective writing that only reports facts or reality. In these terms, in subjective writing, it is possible to find the use of the pronoun "I" and words or phrases that show the personal judgment or perspectives of the author, which is considered as inappropriate in formal situations.
According to this, the sentence that demonstrates subjective writing is "Construction companies that destroy mangroves to build houses are ignorant and greedy" because the use of the words "ignorant and greedy" convey a personal judgment or point of view of the author and therefore, in this sentence, the author does not report facts but includes personal ideas.

Change The Voice:
Voice in English language means a verb is in the active form or passive form. These are the 2 main voices in English. In active voice, the subject does the action of the verb. Thus the subject performs the action of the verb. It simply means that the person doing the action is given great importance. Where as in passive voice the subject of the verb is acted upon this means that the subject is having the action been done to it. In this case the action is given great importance rather than the person doing the action.

Which transition would be BEST to add at the beginning of paragraph 2?
The correct transition word to use at the start of the second sentence reflects the logical relationship between the two sentences; choices include 'however', 'therefore', 'for example', or 'even though'.
The best transition to add to the beginning of the second sentence from paragraph 2 would depend on the relationship between the first and second sentences. If the second sentence presents a contrasting point or a shift in direction from the first, 'however' would be appropriate.
If it builds upon the idea presented in the first sentence, 'therefore' would be suitable. When providing an example for something mentioned previously, 'for example' is the correct choice. Lastly, if the second sentence acknowledges a concession or presents a surprising contrast, 'even though' would work well. In order to determine the most suitable transition word, one must understand the context and logical relationship the sentences share.
The complete question is:

B) therefore

The scientific revolution emphasized reason and rationality, while the gothic genre emphasized emotion and the supernatural.
What was scientific revolution?The scientific revolution was characterized by a rational and empirical approach to understanding the natural world, relying on observation, experimentation, and mathematical analysis to generate new knowledge. In contrast, the gothic genre was characterized by a focus on the supernatural, the mysterious, and the emotional, often featuring dark and eerie settings and supernatural creatures.

Despite these differences, both the scientific revolution and the gothic genre were important movements in shaping the intellectual and cultural landscape of the time and continue to influence modern thought and literature.

Upon
A red wheel
Barrow
Glazed with rain
Water
Beside the white
Chickens.
Which of these poetic devices does this poem most represent?
The answer is emjambment as the lines continue in to the next without stopping.
The correct answer is A. Enjambment
Explanation:
In poetry there are different devices used by poets to convey the main meaning or message n a poem, give o it rhythm or emphasize one element on it. In the case of enjambement, this poetic device consists of dividing a single idea or thought into different verses, which means at the end of a verse te syntax or idea has not been completed and this continues in a new verse, which is opposite to end-stopped lines in which the idea is complete at the end of the verse. Enjambment occurs in the poem "The Red Wheelbarrow" by William Carlos Williams as the ideas are divided into different verses, for example, the ideas "A red wheel/ barrow" and the idea "Beside the white/ chickens" are divided into different verses and therefore the verse does not end with the idea which means the verses used enjambment. Thus, the poetic device this poem represents is Enjambment.

Read the passage. The salaries of athletes who take part in professional sports are well earned and well deserved. These athletes benefit more than just fans like me. In a recent survey, 92 percent of children stated that they viewed at least one athlete as a role model; 75 percent go on to state that they learn about fair play and sportsmanship from professional athletes. While not all athletes exhibit sportsmanship, most kids focus on athletes with admirable traits, since 76 percent of children surveyed agree that it is never okay to taunt an opponent. Which statement best evaluates the evidence used in this argument? The author presents empirical evidence, then uses logical evidence to highlight the connection between the data and the claim. The author focuses on logical evidence, then uses anecdotal evidence to share children’s viewpoints. The author uses primarily anecdotal evidence, as a fan of professional athletes, then uses empirical evidence to provide support. The author employs empirical, logical, and anecdotal evidence equally to support the claim with data, common sense, and a short narrative.
Answer:
The author presents empirical evidence, then uses logical evidence to highlight the connection between the data and the claim.
Explanation:
Empirical evidence is evidence gathered through observation and experience that supports the claim. Logical evidence is the use of data to support the claim. Anecdotal evidence is a small story that supports the claim. There is no anecdotal evidence in the passage, because the author does not tell a story. Any answer that speaks of anecdotal evidence should be eliminated. This only leaves the first choice. There's plenty of logical evidence in all of the data that is included in the passage.
