CORRECT ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST
Read the passage below from “Marigolds” and answer question.
Miss Lottie’s house was the most ramshackle of all our ramshackle homes. The sun and rain had long since faded its rickety frame siding from white to a sullen gray. The boards themselves seemed to remain upright not from being nailed together but rather from leaning together, like a house that a child might have constructed from cards. A brisk wind might have blown it down, and the fact that it was still standing implied a kind of enchantment that was stronger than the elements. There it stood and as far as I know is standing yet—a gray, rotting thing with no porch, no shutters, no steps, set on a cramped lot with no grass, not even any weeds—a monument to decay.
Which quote from the passage above provide clues to the meaning of the word ramshackle?
“…from white to sullen gray.”
“There it stood and as far as I know is standing yet -”
“…like a house that a child might have constructed from cards.”
“…on a cramped lot with no grass, not even any weeds –“
Answer:
“…like a house that a child might have constructed from cards.”

When Mr. Jones and his men whip the animals, the animals rise up against them. The men flee the farm with the animals chasing them.

The first major rebellion occurs on
E. Midsummer's Eve
Mrs. Jones quickly packs a bag and slips out of the farm, followed by
A. Moses
What happens in "Animal Farm"?The animals living on Manor Farm decide they should rebel against their human owner and take control of the farm themselves. They carry out the first major rebellion on Midsummer's Eve:
"On Midsummer's Eve, which was a Saturday, Mr. Jones went into Willingdon. . . One of the cows broke in the door of the store-shed with her horn and all the animals began to help themselves from the bins."
When the fight between humans and animals intensifies, Mrs. Jones, who watches it from inside the house, packs a bag and runs away. The animal that follows her is Moses:
"Mrs. Jones looked out of the bedroom window, saw what was happening, hurriedly flung a few possessions into a carpet bag, and slipped out of the farm by another way. Moses sprang off his perch and flapped after her, croaking loudly."
Therefore, the correct answers are letters E and A, respectively.

Is the author suggesting that people could be without products they need to survive if companies lack access to rare-earth metals? Which selection from the article supports your answer?
Answer:
Far from it. The article is very reassuring about the ability of the world to survive regardless of whether or not rare earth materials become unavailable due to political reasons or become depleted naturally.
Explanation:
The author rather speaks to the reality that it may pose some challenge or discomfort if China decides to weaponize the commercial availability of her rare earth metal using trade restrictions but that it would only lead to one or all of the following:
Innovations that completely do without it such as happened in 2010 when Japan was cut off temporarily by China and their automobile manufacturers partially and in some cases completely sidelined the input from their production processes. See paragraph 10 and 11;activation of other production sites and reservoirs. See paragraphs 6 and 7 where it is suggested that U.S and Australian mines at Mountain Pass, Calif. and Mount Weld could be activated to step up production;use reusing and recycling: this will up the market for the demand for recycled electronic gadgets that have been produced using scarce metals.Cheers!

Write a descriptive paragraph about a topic of your choosing, using at least three of the following elements of figurative language: imagery, simile, metaphor, alliteration, personification, onomatopoeia, hyperbole. Your paragraph should be at least 150 words in length.
Answer:
It was dusk when I finally reached the most beautiful and anticipated part of the trail: its ending. There I stood, watching the limitless horizon and what, to me, seemed to be billions of flowers, stretching eternally away from me. The daffodils danced playfully, giggling at one another, happily tickling and touching. The wind whooshed a bit harder now, as if to put their little dance to test. They did not complain, however. The spectacle went on. I lifted my eyes and stared at the clouds, floating by like weightless pieces of the finest cotton, tinted by the dying colors of a twilight sun.
Explanation:
Let's identify the elements of figurative language used above:
1. seemed to be billions of flowers = hyperbole, which is the use of exaggeration to describe something;
2. daffodils danced playfully, giggling at one another, happily tickling and touching = personification, which is the attribution of human actions or qualities to inanimate objects;
3. wind whooshed = onomatopoeia, which is the use of words that represent a sound by imitating it;
4. floating by like weightless pieces of the finest cotton = simile, which is a comparison made with the help of the words "like" or "as";
5. tinted by the dying colors of a twilight sun = imagery, which is a vivid description of something that appeals to one of the five senses. In this case, we are appealing to sight.

how is champagne made and what cultural events is champagne associated with?
Please use your own words :)
Answer:
please give me BRAINLIEST ANSWER
Explanation:
The history of Champagne has seen the wine evolve from being a pale, pinkish still wine to the sparkling wine now associated with the region. The Romans were the first to plant vineyards in this area of northeast France, with the region being cultivated by at least the 5th century, possibly earlier. When Hugh Capet was crowned King of France in 987 at the cathedral of Reims, located in the heart of the region, he started a tradition that brought successive monarchs to the region—with the local wine being on prominent display at the coronation banquets. The early wine of the Champagne region was a pale, pinkish wine made from Pinot noir.[1]
A bottle of Champagne being used to christen the USS Shangri-La (CV-38) in 1944. Champagne has had a long history of being used in celebration of events such as the launching of ships.
The Champenois were envious of the reputation of the wines made from their Burgundian neighbours to the south and sought to produce wines of equal acclaim. However the northerly climate of the region gave the Champenois a unique set of challenges in making red wine. At the far extremes of sustaining viticulture, the grapes would struggle to ripen fully and often would have bracing levels of acidity and low sugar levels. The wines were lighter bodied and thinner than the Burgundies.[1]
Furthermore, the cold winter temperatures prematurely halted fermentation in the cellars, leaving dormant yeast cells that would awaken in the warmth of spring and start fermenting again. One of the byproducts of fermentation is the release of carbon dioxide gas, which, if the wine is bottled, is trapped inside the wine, causing intense pressure. The pressure inside the weak, early French wine bottles often caused the bottles to explode, creating havoc in the cellars. If the bottle survived, the wine was found to contain bubbles, something that the early Champenois were horrified to see, considering it a fault. As late as the 17th century, Champenois wine makers, most notably the Benedictine monk Dom Pérignon (1638–1715), were still trying to rid their wines of the bubbles.[1]
While the Champenois and their French clients preferred their Champagne to be pale and still, the British were developing a taste for the unique bubbly wine. The sparkling version of Champagne continued to grow in popularity, especially among the wealthy and royal. Following the death of Louis XIV of France in 1715, the court of Philippe II, Duke of Orléans made the sparkling version of Champagne a favorite among the French nobility. More Champenois wine makers attempted to make their wines sparkle deliberately, but didn't know enough about how to control the process or how to make wine bottles strong enough to withstand the pressure.[1]
In the 19th century these obstacles were overcome, and the modern Champagne wine industry took form. Advances by the house of Veuve Clicquot in the development of the méthode champenoise made production of sparkling wine on a large scale profitable, and this period saw the founding of many of today's famous Champagne houses, including Krug (1843), Pommery (1858) and Bollinger (1829). The fortunes of the Champenois and the popularity of Champagne grew until a series of setbacks in the early 20th century. Phylloxera appeared, vineyard growers rioted in 1910–11, the Russian and American markets were lost because of the Russian Revolution and Prohibition, and two World Wars made the vineyards of Champagne a battlefield.[1]
The modern era, however, has seen a resurgence of the popularity of Champagne, a wine associated with both luxury and celebration, with sales quadrupling since 1950. Today the region's 86,500 acres (35,000 ha) produces over 200 million bottles of Champagne with worldwide demand prompting the French authorities to look into expanding the region's Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) zone to facilitate more production.[1]

After failing to kill him they tried to tie him up with ropes and capture of for interrogation. However they miserably failed in that attempt also.

My father always thought of fishing as a bonding ritual. His father had taught him fishing at a young age of six. The two of them would go off to a serene lake on a Sunday afternoon and return home empty-handed. They did not want to kill the fish as my father told me when I reached the age of incessant questioning. "That was not the point of fishing," he had explained.
One morning, it was determined that I had taken enough swimming lessons to be able to rescue both my father and myself in the case of an emergency, and I was allowed to go fishing with my father. I wanted to pick out special clothes, but my father said I looked fine in my khakis and polo shirt. He did give me a beige visor—a bit too big for my face—to guard against the sun. That morning, he drove me in the sedan while my little brother and sister stayed home with Mom.
Father spoke to me in his soothing baritone voice during the drive. "To think about nothing is important once in a while," he said. "You will know when you grow up."
But I had thought fishing was my transition into adulthood. My hurried wish to grow up had pushed me into optimism at the age of eleven. As if my father could read my thoughts he said, "You are almost there, my boy."
We took the scenic route to the lake. We passed the woods, the rolling hills, and approached the much talked about lake. There was sunlight—thrown in silver sprinkles on the water. I helped my father unload the fishing rods and the cooler into the boat. We met the center of the river in silence. I suspended my fishing rod in the air feeling overwhelmed and satisfied by the beauty all around me. I had understood why my father did not bring the fish home.
