Read the excerpt and complete the sentences that follow. A Song of the English by Rudyard Kipling (excerpt) Fair is our lot -- O

goodly is our heritage! (Humble ye, my people, and be fearful in your mirth!) For the Lord our God Most High He hath made the deep as dry, He hath smote for us a pathway to the ends of all the Earth! Yea, though we sinned -- and our rulers went from righteousness -- Deep in all dishonour though we stained our garments' hem. Oh be ye not dismayed, Though we stumbled and we strayed, We were led by evil counsellors -- the Lord shall deal with them! . . . Keep ye the Law -- be swift in all obedience -- Clear the land of evil, drive the road and bridge the ford. Make ye sure to each his own That he reap where he hath sown; By the peace among Our peoples let men know we serve the Lord! In the poem, the word goodly means 1.) _________, and the phrase "evil counsellors" refers to 2.) _________

I believe the correct answers are 1. Goodly meaning (D) admirable; and 2. “evil counselors” meaning (D)rulers.

 

In the poem “The Song of English” written by Rudyard Kipling, the underlined theme is that English people are chosen from God (“He hath made the deep as dry, He hath smote for us a pathway to the ends of all the Earth!”) as long as they abide His Law, which is why he states that their heritage is admirable (“O goodly is our heritage! (Humble ye, my people, and be fearful in your mirth!) For the Lord our God Most High”). But, English people sinned, led by rulers who strayed out of righteous path. Since the rulers are ones to lead the people, he calls them “evil counselors”.

Read the excerpt from "Save the Coral Reefs.”
svetoff [14.1K]
<span>Q1: The ability of an ecosystem to recover from damage.
In the text, it says "the resiliency of the reefs". From this we know that resiliency is a trait that the reefs have. In the next sentence, we see the context clues that define resiliency when it states "reefs bounce back-even flourish." When someone or something bounces back it recovers and returns to it's previous state.

Q2: to inform readers about how the coral reefs are being destroyed AND to convince readers that practices that destroy coral reefs must be stopped.
It is a "Check All That Apply" so more than one answer can be chosen. The passage title is "Save the Coral Reefs" and the selection ends with the sentence "More can be done now to help the coral reefs bounce back". These clues tell the reader that the author's purpose is to save the reefs. In order to do this the author needs to first explain how the reefs are being destroyed. Then convince readers to save the reefs by stopping the practices that destroy them.

Q3: "could help save" and "unsubstantiated risks".
It is important to pay attention to the question here. It is asking for phrases that support safety - not necessarily nutrition. A pixie stick is safe to eat, but not nutritious. The phrase "could help save" supports the idea that it is safe because it is being defined as possibly life and eye-saving. "Unsubstantiated risks" also shows safety because it state that any risks have not been proven and are therefore unfounded. Some of the other phrases such as "more vitamin A" and "more nutritious" support the argument that the food is healthier but are not used to specifically explain how safe it is.</span>

Consider the extended metaphor of the caged bird. Then, choose the figurative meaning of each quotation from the poem.
Inessa05 [86]

A bird in a cage will be called a caged bird but Angela,the poet, wants to talk about racial equality rights.She means that black African American  people used to feel caged by American white people in the 19th century.The entire theme is metaphorical ill treatment. Black people could see white people having having a normal and prosperous life but black people had restricted freedom given to them eg they could not sit on the front seats of a bus.
