What figure of speech is used in this line from Walt Whitman's poem,"I hear America Singing"?

       Imagine walking outside and discovering your pristine neighborhood being ripped to shreds. Tree branches scattered in the roads, shingles hanging loosely from your roof, and your car's paint melted off. Would you ever guess that this destruction could be caused by a small group of birds? Vultures have been proven to be important to our ecosystem, but when they are found in neighborhoods they can cause massive problems that can only be solved by removing them.

     In recent years, vultures have been detected roosting where they should not be. People have reported sightings of vultures nesting in neighborhoods. Previously, vultures had been known to roost on the side of a cliff, or in large trees. According to Compton’s by Britannica, "Old World vultures build large stick platform nests in trees or on cliffs, sometimes in large colonies.” So as you can see, when people found vultures roosting in neighborhoods, it was quite a shock. “At first, they were just a disturbing sight, but as the days passed, they became aware of the damage the birds were inflicting,” writes the author M.E. White in his article Vultures Make Life Difficult. And now a similar scenario has happened in a town in Northwest Roanoke. Vultures have created nests and roosting sites and have begun causing many dilemmas in this small town. Vultures may be important to our ecosystem, but they are not a natural part of the environment in these neighborhoods!

     This vulture predicament has affected all of the people in these neighborhoods. Surprisingly, the biggest problem that these vultures are creating is NOT eating the dead animals but instead eating caulk on houses, rubber tires, and practically anything soft. On several occasions, the birds have been seen to leave feces on cars. Since the droppings are so acidic they have been known to melt the paint! “...the feces they leave behind have been a nuisance to homeowners for years,” states the Roanoke Times. In fact, the melted paint on cars is probably the least of their worries. Now that vultures have been roosting in smaller trees that aren’t adapted to hold such weight, trees branches have broken. Since such large pieces of the tree are being ripped off, some of the trees have even died. The pests have also been seen eating the shingles right off the house! Carol Bannerman admits that “vultures will start to pick at anything that's rubber or soft.” So it’s not surprising that other things such as rubber tires, weatherstripping, and caulk have been eaten by the birds. All things considered, these pests have created big problems that have influenced all of the people living in these communities.

    In the long run, it would troublesome to have the vultures continue to live in these neighborhoods, so the town must scare away the vultures and take precautions so they cannot return. In Roanoke, officers made a last-ditch effort to remove the vultures from the town. Roanoke Times writes, “Bedford Police Chief Milton Graham said animal control officers have killed a handful of vultures in recent years to try to get them to disperse.” But usually, to remove the birds they must shoot cannons that make a lot of sounds. According to Vultures Make Life Difficult, “They shot the pyrotechnic bullets in the air and the noise and lights made the vultures fly away and stay away. It is the best way to get rid of vultures once they've settled in the trees.“ Once the vultures are gone, officers must set up precautionary measures so that the birds cannot return. In the past, they have placed wires on top of roofs so that the birds can’t land on the roofs and inflict further damage. People also have protected the trees. “One thing residents can do is to spray water up into the trees. Keeping the area constantly wet will keep the vultures from roosting,” states M.E. White. Although vultures are necessary, officers must scare the vultures away from the neighborhoods so that the town stays safe.

     As you can see, these vultures have created numerous problems that will be hard but not impossible to solve. These vultures must be removed, or many neighborhoods in Northwest Roanoke will be damaged beyond repair. Towns may be permanently ruined, and homes will be destroyed. Although this task may seem insurmountable, the United States will be able to fend off these birds so that neighborhoods will be vulture-free once more.

D.The order in which the families arrive at the annex

Explanation:

got i right on edge 2021

Answer:

yes, why would they not, i mean unless the teen is disabled, then i get not letting them go for protection but do you really need to keep anyone else in instead of letting them trick or treat?

Explanation:

How do kids know when they should give up trick or treating? Do parents even know when? Going through life, children have to give up many things that they grow too old for. It’s just a part of life. The question is, are kids as willing to give up holidays? Young kids may not realize that one day they will have to give up this wonderful tradition.

Elementary schools let the kids wear their costumes to school and go to classrooms to collect candy. It seemed like a good idea then, but how about now? When kids can’t do it anymore it’s not fun to see the younger kids come in. Most children create a cushion that they will not have to stop trick or treating because it’s a holiday. When the thought comes to mind it almost seems unreal.

My moment was not fun at all. This had happened two years ago. My older cousin and I had been discussing going trick or treating together. We began to look at costume catalogs. When we narrowed down costumes we had made the plans final. A week before Halloween my cousin had called and said she wasn’t feeling well and would not be going trick or treating with me. At first it didn’t bother me that much because I figured I could find someone else. The night before Halloween I still hadn’t found someone to go with. I had started to cry because I knew I wouldn’t be going this year. Then my cousin called and said she had suddenly felt better and would go. I knew the whole thing was a lie so she didn’t have to go with me. I told her that I didn’t want her to come if she didn’t want to. Instead of trick or treating my parents bought me a bag of candy and a slushy. Now, on Halloween I have friends over instead of trick or treating. Some kids don’t have these realization moments and still go out at the age of sixteen.

What should parents do when a teenager shows up at their door dressed up waiting for candy? Should parents really give them candy? If they dress up and are in the spirit, they should just give them one. Parents shouldn’t encourage this behavior, but be sure to not be rude. If discouraging kids form trick or treating doesn’t happen naturally parents should offer alternative ideas. If it gets to them trick or treating in high school it’s time for drastic measures. Some alternative options to do are throw a party, have a few friends over, watch scary movies, buy candy, or go out and spend time with family. Remember to enjoy Halloween when you’re still young.

Theme is something the author is trying to teach the reader.

Answer:

The central idea highlighted in the first 8 lines of Christopher Marlowe's poem - The Passionate Shepherd to His Love speaks to the union between a man and his environment.

Explanation:

So in the first line, he calls out to his love and then progresses from there to promise pleasure which they'd both share.

It is important to note that these pleasures are strongly related to nature. Inline 2 he promises to prove or show his love all the pleasures.

In lines 5 and 6 he references the view of watching shepherds feed their flock and in 7 and 8 he paints the picture of melodious birds singing to river falls.

So we see that as he tried to convince his love to join him in the great outdoors, there he depicts a strong connection between the beauty of nature in the rural environment and his passion towards the one he loves.

Explanation:

cause you cannot use bad English and formal English

A direct quotation is one in which you copy an author's words directly from the text and use that exact wording in your essay. Try to use direct quotations sparingly: only use them when they are focused precisely on the point you want to make and are both brief and telling, or where the substance/ wording of the quote is what you wish to address.

Explanation:

When directly quoting, remember the following points:

bullet for a short quotation, use quotation marks " " to indicate that these are someone elses words.

For example:

In fact, Rumelhart suggests that schemata "truly are the building blocks of cognition" (1981: 33).

bullet for quotations longer than three lines, take a new line and indent the quote to separate it from the main text (in this case you do not require quotation marks)

For example:

In fact, Rumelhart suggests that schemata

truly are the building blocks of cognition. They are the fundamental elements upon which all information processing depends. Schemata are employed in the process of interpreting sensory data (both linguistic and non linguistic), in retrieving information from memory, in organising actions, in determining goals and subgoals, in allocating resources, and generally, in guiding the flow of processing in the system (1981: 33-34).

Rumelhart (1981) attempts to unravel the functions of schemas, explaining them through a series of analogies.

bullet when referencing the quote include the page number from which it was taken

For example:

In fact, Rumelhart (1981: 33) suggests that schemata "truly are the building blocks of cognition".

Explanation:

Answer:

A.  to describe the character’s conflict with the setting

Explanation:

In this excerpt from Heart of Darkness, the narrator puts the accent on the surroundings, and how unpleasant it is. It gives the feeling of being lost in the prehuman era when nature and wilderness dominated, but in a negative sense. The feeling was even more intensive since the narrator traveled alone, and being alone in a, from a traveler`s point of view, hostile environment with wild animals like alligators, warm air that seems like it is unbreathable and awareness like you are in some enchanted trap where there is no way out, made the narrator feel a little bit anxious, though a man in greatness and infinity of nature is just a grain of sand, and that is even scarier.
