Answer:

author explains how she learnt about life's uncertainty and how things can change easily.

Explanation:

In the "Early Dismissal" by Robin Wasserman, the author explains how she learnt about life's uncertainty and how things change easily at a very young age. She tells about how her innocence had blindfolded her about people's commitment and friendship.

Being a shy and passive person, the author says that she always treasured that one best friend she had during childhood. The author compares herself with Anne from 'Anne of the Green Cables', a fictional character who treasures bonds, friendships and partnerships wholeheartedly.

So when she finds out that her best friend doesn't regard her the same way like she does, her whole fascination and imagination of 'kindred spirits' shatters and gets broken. She then compares this experience of how grown-ups deal with life and how things can change anytime.

However, in the end, the author adds that she still believes in the idea of forever. Giving the readers a sense of how she is still innocent deep down inside.

Read this paragraph from chapter 5 of The Prince. Whenever those states which have been acquired as stated have been accustomed
lakkis [162]

The answer is:  

There are three ways for a prince to hold a newly acquired state that is accustomed to freedom: ruin it, live there, or create an oligarchy that is loyal to him—and the third way is easiest.

In the excerpt from "the Prince," the author Niccolo Machiavelli makes reference to the three possible ways of holding a new acquired state that is used to living in freedom and having their own laws. The first option is to destroy them, the second is to settle there, and the third is to create an oligarchy that charges taxes but that keeps the state peaceful. Machiavelli suggests the third option is he easiest because it makes use of the state's own citizens and the new oligarchy must owe its endurance to the prince.

Read the poems. A haiku by Buson and an excerpt from "Wine of the Fairies" by Percy Bysshe Shelley. What motif is addressed in b
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: The motif addressed in both forms of poetry is nature.

Explanation: A Motif is a symbolism that is repeated throughout the poem in different forms. The poem "Wine of the Fairies" by Percy Bysshe Shelley, and the majority of the haikus (Japanese poems) by Buson, use the motifs of nature and fantasy, mentioning fairies, flowers, seasons, and more. We can see this in the haiku "Natsukawa wo/ Kosu ureshisa yo/ Te ni zori", by Buson, where we can see verses such as:

The summer river.

It’s happy to walk across it.

My hands with zori sandal.

Likewise, in "Wine of the Fairies" Shelley describes his love for these elements when being drunk in the lines: "Which fairies catch in hyacinth bowls." "And when ’tis spilt on the summer earth", "Of the fairies bear those bowls so new!"

Why does Shakespeare include this comic speech by Mercutio? to explain Benvolio’s strange behavior
svp [43]

Shakespeare in the play Romeo and Juliet, includes this comic speech by Mercutio in order to illustrate the close friendship between the men.

Mercutio accuses his fellow Montague Benvolio of not picking up fights and being hypocrite suggesting pair to go inside to avoid the fight. Mercutio is neither totally Montagues nor Capulet. Due to his close friendship with Benvolio and Romeo, he is considered to be Montagues and he is the cousin of the prince. To not let Benvolio deter him, in this scene he picks up the fight with the Capulets. Through his tone of quarrel, it is clear that his attitude is none-too-serious, taking it as a joke. His fight in the above passage is clearly ridiculous and non-sensical. Through this, mirrors the fight between Capulets and Montagues is equally baseless and unnecessary. Here, they fight because they have fought and they are 'quarrelsome' like Benvolio.
