"Grass" uses realism to convey a message about war. It takes a pastoral image of grass growing in a cemetery to look not at the serenity and peace of nature and setting, but, rather, at the death and devastation beneath. Rather than symbolizing fresh life, the grass conceals the dead. And once the dead are concealed, the poem suggests, they are quickly forgotten

Buying things on easy instalments keeps you permanently in debt . Write down your points in favour/against the proposition

Leokris [45]

Buying things on easy instalments can keep you permanently in debt but if you have a regular salary or wages this may be the best way to spread out your debts. On the other hand, if you are a consultant or contractor and don't get regular income, it becomes necessary to pay some things with a lump sum as much as possible in the absence of regular income.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The answers are:

1. Declarative sentence

2. Interrogative sentence

3. Imperative sentence

4. Exclamatory sentence

5. Compound sentence structure

6. Simple sentence structure

7. Compound sentence structure

8. Complex sentence structure

Explanation:

1. This is a declarative sentence. A declarative sentence is used to give information. The information given is that the person in question took the dog to the vet.

2. This is an interrogative sentence. Identified by a question mark, it is used to ask questions as shown in the example above.

3. This is an imperative sentence. An imperative sentence is used in issuing an order or command. As shown in the example, "come with us"

4. This is an Exclamatory sentence. Exclamatory sentence is used to convey feelings and emotion. It is usually identified by the presence of an exclamation mark.

5. Contains a compound sentence structure. A compound sentence contains two independent clauses joined by a comma, semicolon or a conjunction.

In no. 5 above "I understood why he wanted to be there" is an independent clause joined to another independent clause "I certainly couldn’t be upset at him" by the use of "and".

6. This is a simple sentence structure. A simple sentence has a subject, verb, even other parts of speech but most importantly can form a complete thought by itself. The example given expresses a complete thought.

7. This is a compound sentence.

It contains two independent clauses separated by "but".

8. This is a complex sentence. A complex sentence has a dependent and independent clause present in it. An independent clause contains a subject and verb and expresses a complete thought while a dependent clause also contains a subject and verb but doesn't express a complete thought.

The dependent clause here is "If John is able to come with us" while the independent clause is "we can probably make the trip in less than one day."

They are separated by a comma.

How does the character of the talking skull reveal the author's point of view in the story

posledela

Answer:

The Talking Skull

Explanation:

In Donna L. Washington's "The Talking Skull-A fairy tale by Cameroon," the theme involves how you might be bothered by speaking too much about yourself and talking too loud. In order to teach the lesson, the author utilities the character of the talking skull. A man who sees himself as a philosopher and who speaks and talks about topics that are just essential to him, but who nobody else needs to know, discovers a skull. In other words, the skull responds directly to what triggered her death, "Talking."
