The Pitcher plant traps bugs in its stem with a slippery wax lining. The insects slip into a pool where they're digested by bacteria, providing nutrients for the plant. This is an expression of thigmotropism, where movement is triggered by touch.

The plant that traps bugs in its stem and forces them to walk forward is the Pitcher plant. This plant's unique structure includes a stem that acts like a trap. Bugs are lured by its nectar but encounter a slippery wax lining, which causes them to slip into a pool of water at the bottom of the stem. This is where they are digested by bacteria. The plant subsequently absorbs the nutrients. This carnivorous feeding mechanism compensates for the scarce nutrients in its natural, usually boggy, habitat.

Thigmotropism is a plant behavior visible in this case. It refers to movement in response to touch. Thanatosis is illustrated by insects that ingest toxins secreted by the plant, rendering them immobile.

Her dad gave her a shrug as if to say, Sorry can't hear you. Emily pointed at the islands and her dad nodded.  The helicopter veered left and landed gently onto one of the floating islands. Emily stumbled out in excitiment. She whooped in delight. "Dad! Your stories are real, the floating islands!" She jumped about. When suddenly she blacked out.

Final answer:

Discovering the islands in the sky, the helicopter passenger is awed by the beauty and distinctness of each island, realizing she is part of a legendary realm above the clouds.

Explanation:

As the helicopter whirred and the islands hoisted above the clouds stood boldly against the sky, her excitement was palpable. "The islands in the sky are real," she repeated, the awe in her voice mirroring the splendor of the sight. The world unfurled below them, a tapestry of lush greenery and cobalt blue waters that sparkled under the caress of the sun. The islands, like floating emerald jewels, commanded the skies—a realm where the birds soared and humans could only dream of reaching.

These lofty mountains were a far cry from the modest peaks she had known. Each island was distinct, with summits veiled in silver mist and valleys teeming with unknown flora. The vibrant calls of unseen creatures intertwined with the rustle of leaves, composing an orchestra that celebrated the majesty of this untouched paradise. It was not just the visual grandeur; it was the feeling of being part of something greater, a fleeting guest in nature’s secret sanctum.

Their journey continued, the helicopter weaving through the colossal peaks. She realized that the legends were real, and more importantly, she was part of it—no longer a distant observer but a vibrant character in the story of the sky islands. Every climb, every exploration had led to this moment—the discovery of a world above worlds, suspended in serene defiance of gravity, a testament to the boundless wonders of our planet.

It describes the handwriting in the letter as being that of a stranger rather than that of their son, indicating that the poem takes place after their son is already gone. This option  evokes a sense of time in which this poem is set. Walt Whitman wrote this poem , " Come up from the Fields Father", during the Reconstruction Years in the U.S after the Civil War (1861-1865). Whitman himself wrote letters for wounded soldiers when he worked at the hospital. He knew about this situation and he wanted to show this in this poem. The fact that the letter had been written by a stranger reflected that the woman's son had probably died or was seriously wounded. His arms or hands could have been amputated. All this would cause a terribly pain in the mother and the rest of the family. Whitman wanted to express the effects of the Civil War horrors mainly  on the soldiers' families.

Answer:

It includes language describing a personally written letter, indicating that the poem depicts a time when writing letters by hand was a primary way to communicate.

The Oldman and The Sea is the main story written by Ernest Hemingway in 1952 who, inspired by his life as a fisherman in Cuba, wrote the novel that would bring him back to the literary world. The Oldman and The Sea is a short novel of only 27,000 words and about 110 pages about an old fisherman and his agonizing fight against a huge marlin.

This book was published for the first time in Life magazine on August 28, 1952. This story brought him a Pulitzer Prize and would consecrate him as a worthy Nobel Prize winner, which he would obtain in 1954. After the immense success of this short story, he continued to live in Cuba, although his stay was now interrupted by visitors and readers who came to Finca Vigía, the home of Hemingway in Cuba, to see him. It is believed that this story is based on his best friend on the island, an old and experienced Cuban fisherman named Gregorio Fuentes. So, the correct answer is B. Cuba.

Final answer:

The theme expressed in the excerpt is that of cultural values and expectations on motherhood, emphasizing the role of mothers as selfless caretakers who sacrifice their own interests for their family, despite the lack of professional recognition.

Explanation:

The theme expressed in the provided excerpt centers around the cultural values and expectations placed on motherhood. It delves into the societal views that characterize a 'good' mother as one who selflessly centers her life around her children, neglecting her own interests. This suggests a sacrificial role for mothers, where they are expected to manage multiple responsibilities and prioritize their children's needs often at the expense of their own personal growth and well-being. The imagery of pastel flower arrangements associated with Mother's Day cards further emphasizes the delicate and nurturing role mothers are expected to play.

The inclusion of quotes from books and the mention of motherhood being the most important job in the world, alongside the emotional and material work involved, highlights how motherhood is revered and yet often undervalued in terms of professional status and compensation. The theme speaks to the discrepancy between societal praise for motherhood and the actual support and respect mothers receive.

At first, Ebenezer Scrooge thought that the reason why Marley's ghost had appeared was indigestion. The ghost spoke to Ebenezer and so Scrooge thought that another reason for this ghost to be there was the friendship these two men once had.

Ebenezer Scrooge kept trying to rationalize what had happened, and the more he tried to put his thoughts to rest the more he kept thinking about it.

Scrooge was trying really hard to give a reasonable and believable explanation to Marley's ghost appearance.

Yes, he thought he was dreaming when he saw his partner's ghost: "Marley" who was punished to wander the earth for his selfishness and greed; to save Scrooge, Marley informed him that he would  be visisted by three ghosts. Scrooge fell in a deep dream. For that reason believed, it just was a dream.

The cite:

"Every  time   he resolved within himself, after mature inquiry, that it was all a dream"

     Welcome to any place means you will be received with pleasure by anyone you  pay a visit to. However, you will not feel glad or happy if you are welcome to a place you hate, but you have to go to or if you are welcome to hell. Take the song Welcome to the Jungle by Guns &Roses .How could you be welcome in a place with so much violence and death?

The advertisement I'm going to discuss is one of the latest Nike's video ads. This ad is narrated by Colin Kaepernick, NFL player who in 2016 protested against racial inequality by kneeling during the national anthem before a game.

The ad starts by showing a skater falling over and over again while trying to skate on a rail. Meanwhile Kaepernick talks about not letting people convince you out of your dreams because they think your dreams are crazy.

The video shows a muslin woman boxing, a woman in a wheelchair playing basketball, and many more people. The voiceover invites you to be the best ever, to dream the biggest dream.

The video is highly persuading, it uses real life examples of people who have excelled in sports through the biggest adversities and links them subtly to Nike, just by adding their slogan at the end. The video ends with the phrase "It's only crazy until you do it. Just do it".

The images are highly moving, a NFL player without hand making a touch down(sp?), a kid with no legs fighting in a competition. Kaepernick speaking to the camera while saying, "believe in something even if it means sacrificing everything" referring to the career he lost for protesting injustice.

The music is inspiring, slow with piano and violin. The ad uses the idea of an underdog reaching the highest levels of excellence in sports, and it features many people of color going along the lines of Kaepernick's experience. Its idea is that despite unfairness of circumstances you can still succeed. It uses a repetition of the phrase "don't be this be that (the best)", which is an anaphora and creates parallelism and rhythm. And also is a hyperbole since it exaggerates the examples.

The audience is people who do sports, and specially those who identify as underdogs, those who don't have that many opportunities for whatever reason. It was made to become viral because it is controversial, specially with the current political climate in the US. Many people were offended that they used Kaepernick in the video, people misunderstood his protest with anti-nationalism. The video indeed went viral
