Answer:
Nowhere man.
Explanation:
John's lyrics are somewhat autobiographical and introspective on this 1965 song that features brilliant harmonies throughout and lyrics that offer help to the forlorn listener. It is the song titled "Nowhere man."
John Winston Lennon was an English singer and songwriter, he was born on the 9th of October, 1940 in Liverpool, England. Unfortunately, he was assassinated by Mark David Chapman and died on the 9th of December, 1980 in New York, United States of America.
John formed his first band named "The Quarrymen" which later became "The Beatles" band in 1960 with the world famous James Paul Mccartney.
On the 21st of October, 1965 John recorded the song titled "Nowhere man" with his Beatles band in their sixth (6) studio album titled "Rubber soul." The rendition of Nowhere man was done in a three-part harmony by John, Paul and Harrison while John and Harrison played the lead guitar solo in unison.
Nowhere man was the first song which was unrelated to love, relationships or romance to be recorded and released by The Beatles. Apparently, the song was about John or simply put, the song was somewhat autobiographical, philosophical and introspective as it was written in first person.
Here's an excerpt from the song;
[Verse 1]
\\He's a real nowhere man.
\\Sitting in his nowhere land.
\\Making all his nowhere plans for nobody.
Rewrite the sentences, using verbal phrases in place of the italicized words.
I know that I can do better. This knowledge will help me persist.
Answer:
Knowing that I can do better will help me persist.Explanation:
Verbals are described as the derivative of a verb that functions as a noun or modifier in the sentence. It primarily includes participles(verbals that function as adjectives in the sentence), gerunds(verbals which function as nouns in the sentence), and infinitives(the verbals functioning as adverbs, nouns, or adjectives with 'to'). Thus, verbal phrases are described as the phrases that consist of a verbal plus any modifier or objects.
The given sentences can be rewritten using the verbal phrase('knowing that') as it consists of a verbal 'knowing' plus modifier 'that'. Here, 'knowing that' is the participle phrase and it is functioning as an adjective in the sentence. Thus, this verbal phrase helps in connecting the two ideas together in a coherent manner.
Select the sentence that uses passive voice. A.) The teeth were examined by the dentist. B.)Scott brushed his teeth before his dental appointment. C.)Dr. Vada listens to her patients carefully. D.) New technology allows hygienists to clean teeth quickly and gently.
Answer: A.) The teeth were examined by the dentist.
Explanation:
When using Passive voice, the focus of the sentence becomes the person or thing that is receiving attention not the person or thing that is giving the attention. For instance, The phone is being charged by the salesperson. The salesperson is not the subject or focus of the sentence but rather the phone is.
In option A, the Teeth are the ones receiving the attention and yet are the focus of the sentence as well. This makes this sentence a Passive sentence.

C. Vaibhav has been preparing for the Civil Service Examination for the last two years.
D. How dare you speak to me like that?
Explanation:
Bullet Theory has had a long lifespan. First, describe what it is, then offer one critique.
Answer:
According to the "single-bullet theory", a 6.5mm caliber projectile. encased in a copper sheath and fired from a sixth floor, it went through President Kennedy's neck, Governor Connally's chest and wrist, eventually landing on the latter's thigh. The bullet passed through fifteen layers of clothing, approximately twelve inches of fabric, struck the knot of the President's tie, removed two inches of ribs, culminating in the thigh bone. The bullet that allegedly did all of this was found on the governor's gurney in the hospital corridor, becoming key evidence for the case.
In its conclusions, the Warren Commission found persuasive evidence from experts that a single bullet caused both the wound to the President's neck and the injuries to Connally. It establishes that there was a "difference of opinion" between the members of the Commission "regarding this probability" but established that the theory was not essential to its conclusions and that none of the members had doubts that the shots were fired from the window on the sixth floor of the Depository building.
The House Select Committee on Assassinations of the House of Representatives of 1978 agreed with the Single Bullet Theory, but not in the time it took. The Single Bullet Theory has been fervently defended by those who agree with the Warren Commission's findings and equally criticized by those who disagree.
Explanation:
The criticism that can be given to this theory would be that in a case like this, in which the judgment on the preparation of the appeal has at all times been restricted to the previous question of its possible extemporaneity, once this was ruled out, the body a quo was obliged to verify compliance with the, that until then had not been verified: the observance of the requirements established in the much cited section 2 of article 89 of the LJCA.
In conclusion, a single bullet, therefore, when the court or sentencing has entered to examine all of the procedural premises in the instance, consequently proscribing a new review of the viability of the appeal for reasons additional to that already raised ab initio. Extra ammunition, on the contrary, and the possibility of subsequently denying the preparation for different reasons, when that prior examination was about specific aspects, for example, the timing, legitimacy or appeal of the resolution.

Answer:
Self-control is necessary in becoming a winner in this sort of situation.
Your supervisor will think more highly of you if you stand your ground
Explanation:
Write three to four sentences presenting your prediction
about the main conflict in the novel based on how the
characters feel about their lives. Include evidence to
support your prediction.
I believe that Mr. Jones is not likely to change due to the fact that he can not understand the animals. The first chapter of this book depicts Mr. Jones more of an animal than the animals themselves, someone who is violent and abrasive, we see this when he decides to shoot his gun once his sleep is disrupted. I hope that in the future of this book Mr. Jones learns the errors of his ways, since the point of the book is to make us think as humans how we can be better, but I think it is unlikely.
Answer: The main conflict will most likely be between the animals and the humans. Several ideas in the text support this prediction. First, the animals explain that they live in miserable conditions, and that the humans steal their labor. Then, they state that man is the enemy. Finally, they say that hunger and overwork will disappear if humans are removed from their lives. It seems likely that the animals on the farm will rebel against their human owners.

A/An ________________ is an image that becomes so suggestive that it takes on much more meaning than its descriptive value. The connotation of the words, the repetition , the placement all add to the rest of the poem.
Answer:
connotation of the words
Explanation:
Interestingly, in the English language, the connotation or connotative meaning of words often times takes on much meaning than it's descriptive value.
For example, the use of the colour red in a sentence may take on more meaning in the sentence below:
I'm feeling red, because I lost my car.
This paints a picture of someone who is angry over the lost of his car.

2. How was the life of a 14-year-old in 1793 different from the life of a 14-year-old today? In which
period would you rather live? Why?
Answer:
Back in 1793 the 14-year old had more responsibilities,
he was considered an adult, and had a much harder life than 14-year olds do today. The average 14-year old was likely unable to read or write and had probably lost several brothers or sisters due to the infant mortality the rate at that time was high

Choose the most appropriate completion of the sentence. In order to indicate a strong correlation between variables, the correlation coefficient will be
Answer:
In order to indicate a strong correlation between variables, the correlation coefficient will be near -1 or 1.
Explanation:
The correlation coefficient is a statistical term that always assumes values between -1 and 1, allowing an individual to interpret, through these values, the degree of relationship between two variables within a system.
The closer to -1 the correlation coefficient is, the more negative the relationship between variables will be, however, the closer to 1 the correlation coefficient is, the more positive the degree of relationship between variables will be.
In "The Masque of the Red Death," Edgar Allan Poe personifies the Red Death. Which two excerpts from the story reflect this fact? Excerpt 1 The "Red Death" had long devastated the country. No pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. Blood was its Avatar and its seal—the redness and the horror of blood. Excerpt 2 The figure was tall and gaunt, and shrouded from head to foot in the habiliments of the grave. The mask which concealed the visage was made so nearly to resemble the countenance of a stiffened corpse that the closest scrutiny must have had difficulty in detecting the cheat. Excerpt 3 His vesture was dabbled in blood—and his broad brow, with all the features of the face, was besprinkled with the scarlet horror. And now was acknowledged the presence of the Red Death. He had come like a thief in the night. Excerpt 4 But in the western or black chamber the effect of the fire-light that streamed upon the dark hangings through the blood-tinted panes, was ghastly in the extreme, and produced so wild a look upon the countenances of those who entered, that there were few of the company bold enough to set foot within its precincts at all. R
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Personification is giving human like characteristics or actions to a non-human things.
Excerpt 1 just talks about how scary and awful the Red Death is, but it doesn't really make it seem human.
Excerpt 2 describes the Red Death like a really scary looking masked person looking thing, kind of like a scythe. The Red Death is a non-human thing though, but Poe is making it seem human. This is personification.
Excerpt 3 talks about a face, vesture, brow, etc. These are all things that humans usually have. This is a personification.
Excerpt 4 is just describing a scary place, but it doesn't really talk about anything human, and it doesn't seem to be talking about the Red Death at all.
Therefore, the answer is Excerpt 2 and Excerpt 3.

Tonya decided that she would finally face her fears today. No day is better than another, she told herself as she examined herself in the dressing mirror. Certainly not!
She was going to look her best today—the black top with red borders and the boot-cut jeans would boost her confidence. Today, she would wear the red sandals and walk with her head held high. The mirror reflected a tall, athletic, and glowing young woman—ready to conquer the universe.Tonya thought hard about the words she was going to say to Aish when she heard her call out her name.
"Tooonyaaaa! Are you ready yet?" Aish and her famous, loud voice had woken up the neighborhood for the morning. "Geez Louise! Could you hurry up, pleeeeease?"
"Coming!" Tonya replied and appeared downstairs with her backpack in a matter of moments. She gave Aish a long, hard look. She thought that even in plain, short, overalls and ponytails, petite Aish looked stunning. "Okay, let's go," Tonya uttered, looking flustered.
"Black is definitely not your color, doll!" Aish said, chewing gum loudly. "Ugh, those red sandals! What were you thinking? Sam will definitely run away after seeing you!"
"Aish, do you think that maybe you could be a little less critical with your remarks?" Tonya finally said what had been on her mind for a long time. "I value your opinion and don’t appreciate you always putting me down."
Select the correct answer.
