Dear Ms. Smith,
I have read your new proposal for the workers' free days policy. After analyzing it, I consider that the extension and freedom in the use of our free days is excellent. Many times we get sick and decide to stay at home resting but then we have to do many medical procedures to prove our illness on the days we did not attend, with the new policy, workers should not be worry about getting medical notes when they are sick, this is really an advantage because it will allow us to rest peacefully.
About taking two consecutive days off is a great idea, many times the workers want to take a couple of days off to make small trips or to do some personal matters but we are embarrassed to ask for two days of rest in a row, so we prefer to wait until the weekend or wait until it is vacation time.
Although the proposal is very beneficial for the workers I think it is necessary to create some regulation parameters. For example, no more than three workers from the same department should take their two consecutive days off the same day as this can be counterproductive and generate a workload on other workers.
Also, although workers have the freedom to take a personal or sick day it is necessary to inform the head of the department as soon as possible in case there is any work that must be completed that same day, in this way the work that worker should do that day do not delay the work of others.
In conclusion, I believe that the new time off policy for workers is excellent and can improve the work performance of workers if it isregulated correctly. I hope that my answer will be useful to help you establish this new policy.
Best regards,

Things Fall Apart illustrates many different aspects of Igbo culture. For one, it shows us on may occasions they way they view religion. They are polytheistic, which means they worship many gods. Their gods and goddesses govern different aspects of the world and daily life, such as the earth goddess, Ani.
Different rituals and customs go along with each god. We can see this in the week of peace, which is observed to honor Ani so she will bless the crops. In addition, some of the gods have Oracles. These are basically their mouthpiece on earth. The Oracles will sometimes be possessed by their god, and the god will speak through them and tell the clan what they need to do.
The novel also explores non-religious aspects of Igbo culture. For example, we see and hear about the different ceremonies and rituals that surround courtship and marriage. Men almost always have more than one wife, an important cultural aspect. We also see how the clan conducts aspects of war, and some of how they keep and enforce law and order. Over the course of the novel we get to see a wide array of different aspects of Igbo life and culture. Not sure if this is at least two hundred words but hope it helps.
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
An onomatopoeia is basically a word that represents a sound. Examples include swoosh, bang, oink, screech, etc.
In this excerpt, the onomatopoeia is shriek. This is like a terrified scream. We have four answer options that talk about how this onomatopoeia can make you feel.
1. Frustrated
2. Serious
3. Panicked
4. Disbelief
We see that the word shriek definitely matches with number three, so the answer is Poe uses onomatopoeia and rhyme to create a mood of panic. We see that there is rhyme here too. Speak and shriek rhyme.
Have a wonderful day! :D
