Oh, just another kind of out-door game, One on a side. It comes to little more: There where it is we do not need the wall: He is all pine and I am apple orchard. What feature of this excerpt makes it blank verse? It has a rhyming pattern. It has iambic pentameter. It does not use everyday language. It is about nature.
Answer:
The feature of this excerpt that makes it a blank verse is:
B. It has iambic pentameter.
Explanation:
A poem written in blank verse will not have a rhyming scheme. However, it will have regular metrical lines. It does not have to be iambic pentameter, as is the case here. The author can choose any type of meter and maintain it throughout the poem. Among the options provided, we can eliminate letter A, since we already know blank verse does not rhyme. Letters C and D focus on things that are completely unrelated to blank verse, since it is not about the language or the theme. Therefore, the best option is letter B. It has iambic pentameter, because is shows the meter chosen by this author. Take a look at the lines below:
We wear our fingers rough with handling them.
Oh, just another kind of out-door game

I HAVE TO GET THIS CLASS DONE BEFORE MIDNIGHT OR ELSE IM GONNA FAIL THIS CLASS AND RETAKE IT
Answer:
Wild forest fires cause extensive damage to flora and fauna and result in destruction of man-made property in and around the area of fire.
Controlled fires are used by agriculturists and forest officials to keep wild fires at bay. It involves careful, controlled burning of certain areas of the forest, to clear it off inflammable organic matter. In the event of fire, this cleared-off area acts as a barrier for fire from spreading further.
In the process of controlled burning, several wild animals are killed and lose their habitat. Thick smoke from such man-made fires is a cause for environmental concern too

How does a specific scene contribute to the plot of a story?
Answer:
story

What does Malcolm X mean by saying that, "even though they appeared to have opened the door, it was still closed"
Answer:
the door was open but you had to be a certain caliber of a person in order to walk through it or you might be holding yourself back and thus doing so the door will remain closed
The correct response is - The door was open, but you needed to have a specific kind of character to go through it because else you may be holding yourself back and causing the door to stay closed.
Who is Malcolm X?Malcolm X, an American Muslim clergyman and human rights advocate who was best known during the civil rights movement, was born Malcolm Little and later changed his name to Malik el-Shabazz. He lived from May 19, 1925, until February 21, 1965. He served as the Nation of Islam's spokesperson up until 1964 and was a vociferous supporter of Black liberation and the spread of Islam among Black people. In 1965, a postmortem autobiography he co-wrote with Alex Haley was released.
After his father passed away and his mother was sent to the hospital, Malcolm spent his youth living in a string of foster homes or with relatives. He committed a number of offenses and was given a 10-year jail term for theft and burglary in 1946. He joined the Nation of Islam while incarcerated (choosing the name Malcolm X in place of "the white slavemaster moniker of "Little"), and after being released from jail in 1952, he rose to become one of the group's most important leaders.

Explanation:
I persuade Susie to change the color of her hair
Can you please give me the correct answers
1st answer choices:fancy,funny,or flowing
2nd answer choices:nalal patiya,Sri Lanka,or weddings
3rd answer choices:stylish,disappointed,or thoughtful
Answer:
1. flowing
2. Sri Lanka
3. stylish
Explanation:
The above selected options are the correct answers.
This is true because a look at the passage, we will discover that her mother had a long hair just like her sisters because they were usually praised for it. Therefore, her hair should be flowing. Also, Sri Lanka is the perfect option that fits where her mother is from becomes she refers that as "home of her sisters". Then we realize that trimming the hair will result to a "perfect compromise - a little bit of tradition and a little bit of edge" - which will make the hair stylish.
The above are the correct answers.
