Answer:

spent with her, I try to think with less bitterness of this act of injustice. She possessed but few slaves; and at her death those were all distributed among her relatives. Five of them were my grandmother's children, and had shared the same milk that nourished her mother's children. Notwithstanding my grandmother's long and faithful service to her owners, not one of her children escaped the auction block.

likoan [24]
I believe that the work is Marc Anthony's Speech from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar ,and the full line is:
O judgment! thou art fled to brutish beasts,

and his purpose is to say that the judgement is not following the reason, but instead that people follow the wrong people in their judgement (those people is what he means by "brutish beasts")

. What can you infer about how Gandhi feels about passive resistance? Cite text evidence to support your response.​
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Gandhi likely agrees with passive resistance as the text states, “The consequence is not the progress of a nation but its decline …. No country has ever become, or will ever become, happy through victory in war. A nation does not rise that way; it only falls further. In fact, what comes to it is defeat, not victory. And if, perchance, either our act or our purpose was ill-conceived, it brings disaster to both belligerents.”

Finish this simile: English class is like...
Law Incorporation [45]

English class is like receiving presents on your birthday

or

English class is like having to sit through a movie you didn’t want to see but will be tested on when it’s over.


<span>Similes are comparisons using the words “like” or “as” in order to give readers a better sense of understanding when there may otherwise be little understanding or not the understanding a writer wishes to convey. What this means is that authors will compare something that may not be known to readers to something that most likely will be known in order to present the best image understood by the most readers.  Because not everyone may have the same perspective of an English class as you, for instance, one way to convey an idea of what English class is to you, the use of a simile would work well.  If you enjoyed your English class you might compare it to something you know your general audience enjoys and write something like “English class is like receiving presents on your birthday” because of how each day’s knowledge is wonderful surprising experience for you.  If you hated English class, you might write something like English class is like having to sit through a movie you didn’t want to see but will be tested on when it’s over.  As you can see the use of similes make writing more expressively.</span>
