Read the excerpt from "To a Sky-Lark," by William Wordsworth.
katen-ka-za [31]

The correct answer is A.

In his poem, "To a Sky-Lark," Wordsworth admires a Skylark and feels enchanted by his song. He feels that the bird must know something about the word that causes it to sing in such a beautiful way.

He uses the rhyme of the words "singing" and "ringing" to put emphazis his wish to share the bird's experience.

What is the best summary of this paragraph?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

For the most part of the war, armies preserved old military tactics (fieldwork) of espionage rather than fully adapting to new techniques.

Here's why the other answers are incorrect:

A) "Photography and the telegraph brought some technological advances" in comparison to the previous wars, so A is incorrect. Intelligence was, for the most part, gathered in the same ways it had been previously, but these new technologies were still utilized.

B) Photograph and the telegraph are mentioned, but they are not the main point of the paragraph. Basically, "although the use of photography and the telegraph brought some technological advances," this fact is only being mentioned in the paragraph to emphasize the minimal progress of "the means of obtaining military intelligence," as intelligence was often still "gathered in simple ways" only. Armies "still relied on fieldwork." So B is incorrect.

D) Option D only refers to one source of information in the paragraph, "runaway slaves;" it does not fully or efficiently summarize the paragraph.

In at least two to three paragraphs, write an essay where you analyze the tone the character Marullus uses to express his interp
ladessa [460]
#1) write an essay where you analyze the tone the character Marullus uses to express his interpretation of Caesar's return.

<span>Answer: His tone is that of someone that is worried or even alarmed at Caesar’s return after he defeated his rival and also former co-ruler Pompey. Marullus knew that this victory would mean that Caesar will be the most powerful man in Rome. For this same reason he felt in a very dangerous position. He assumed that Caesar would soon impose one-man rule. Marullus joins Flavius who feels the same way to try and put a stop to Caesar. </span>

#2) How this is similar or different from the interpretation the painter has depicted?

Answer: It is clear that the interpretation the painter has depicted is very different. This is apparent when you compare the painting to the word that Marullus himself used to describe the return of Caesar. In the painting it seems as though Marullus is impressed by Caesar’s feat. I believe he was just putting up a front while deep down he felt disgusted just looking at caesar in his glory moment.

<span>I hope it helps, Regards.</span>
