I suppose the underlined word is respite. Its closest word in meaning is break. As a noun, respite means a short period of relief or rest. From the context, we can see here that the instructors had quite a hard job of taming the canines, so they needed to use any chance they had to get some short rest before going on. Vacation is too long a rest; beverage doesn't have much to do with rest; and payment is just out of context.

Match each excerpt to the type of imformational text it represents? PLEASE HELP.
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

top  - expository

middle - persuasive

bottom - narrative

Explanation:

<u>Expository</u> text informs or explains the subject to the reader. The first excerpt informs about  fossils - how they are formed and where they can be found.

<u>Persuasive</u> text gives the opinion of the author and attempts to influence the reader. The second text tries to persuade the readers to join a new program at the Grampians National Park.

<u>Narrative</u> text, as the term suggests, tells a story, which could be fact or fiction. This is what the third text does.

In a minimum of 150 words, compare and contrast the use of metaphor in the poems "Women" and "Caged Bird."
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

In Caged Bird by Maya Angelou, we can see that the topics are the absence of opportunity, yet in addition the desire for it. This feeling filled lyric investigates the life of two feathered creatures. One symbolizing opportunity, somebody who has got it everything except still needs more; and another speaking to detainment, the longing of something obscure. The sonnet is organized by six stanzas, every one discussing the life of the free winged animal, or of the confined fledgling. This complexity makes a feeling of despairing and trouble all through the sonnet, which the artist uses to depict her wants and other purposes.In the principal stanza the writer portrays what opportunity must like, despite the fact that she had never experienced it.

She utilizes words like floats downstream, orange sun rays... to stress the free existence of that flying creature. Anyway she closes the stanza with and sets out to guarantee the sky. This is stating that despite the fact that that fowl has the benefit of getting a charge out of opportunity, regardless he has the bravery to guarantee more for himself.

On the other hand, the second stanza portrays the sentiments of another winged animal, another spirit; a detained soul, a confined fledgling. This feathered creature has had his wing clipped and his feet tied, and is so loaded with annoyance that he can only here and there transparent/his bars of rage.

This similitude, implying that the flying creature is so furious, so loaded with fierceness that he can't act appropriately; he is kept to his very own enclosure made by fury. This can just prompt the flying creature being devoured by its own anger.The artist utilizes a strategy in which each even line rhymes with one another, aside from the last one. fearful trill yearned for stilldistant hillsings of freedom.This is progressively perceptible or stunning in the stanzas about the confined winged creature.
