Which two sets of lines in the poem illustrate that death's power is an illusion? Sonnet 10 by John Donne Death, be not proud, t

hough some have called thee Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so; For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me. From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be, Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow, And soonest our best men with thee do go, Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men, And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell, And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well And better than thy stroke; why swell'st thou then? One short sleep past, we wake eternally And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die.

Another line is "<span>And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die"
</span>

In a complex behavior, such as reading and interpreting a poem, how many brain systems are typically involved?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

The hippocampus inside our brain consists of two “horns” that curve back from the amygdala. The hippocampus is important in storing information in long-term memory. If the hippocampus is damaged, a person cannot build new memories, living instead in a strange world where everything he or she experiences just fades away, even while older memories from the time before the damage are untouched. In this way it can help in reading and interpreting a poem.

Read the passage from When Birds Get Flu and Cows Go Mad! by John DiConsiglio.
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

In the first paragraph, the author explains the amount of cows Japan and most European nations test, making the reader recognize that there is a sense of accomplishment for those specific countries and nations. But when the author moves on to paragraph two, the transition used is the word "But". This immediately makes the reader think that there is an under-lying problem or there is a downside to the facts before this paragraph.

I hope this helped~!

What aspect of The Metamorphosis is reflected in this excerpt from "Letter to His Father"
Ymorist [56]

The correct answer is C. As it is known, Kafka did not have a good relationship with his father, as he was abusive with him. Kafka’s father was also a narcissistic man and he did not care about his son and this can be proved in “Letter to His Father”. “The Metamorphosis” can be perceived as a sample of the solace that Kafka did in order to expel his demons against his father and so is “Letter to His Father”.  After Gregor becomes a bug, he can not longer communicate with his father and this a representation of what Kafka felt inside him with his own father since his father intransigent with him.

Option A is not correct as the confusion of Gregor Samsa does not have anything to do with the fact that he converted into a bug, so it would not make sense since it does not have a direct connection with Kafka’s relationship with his father.

Option B is not correct as the pain that Gregor feels inside of him is not the consequence of the bad relationship that Kafka had with this father. The fact that he is unable to go off the bed in order to continue with his life is something that is not connected with the fact that Kafka and his father did not have a good father and son relationship.

Option D is not correct since Gregor knows perfectly why his sister did not want to go inside his room with their parents as she has become a different person since Gregor converted into a bug. She does not want to see him because he is now a disgusting and bizarre creature; he is not her brother anymore. Although Gregor was a good brother with her, and supported her with her studies, it seems she has forgotten about that. Nonetheless, the relationship between Gregor and her sister does not represent any aspect in “Letter to His Father”.

klasskru [66]

Answer:

PolarNik [594]

Answer: The sentence that has a subject-verb agreement error is sentence 3.

Explanation: Rules of subject-verb agreement state that, when "neither...nor" is used in a sentence and both subjects are singular, a singular verb must be used. However, when "neither...nor" is used in a sentence and one subject is singular and the other one is plural, the verb must agree in number with the subject that is nearest to this verb. In that way<u>, sentence 3, which includes "neither...nor", has a subject-verb agreement error because a singular verb was used, even though the subject that is nearest to the verb is plural ("parents")</u>. Therefore, a plural verb ("think") should have been used to give place to subject-verb agreement.
