I was like that ship before my education beganonly I was without compass or sounding-line, and had no way of knowing how near the harbour was. Light! give me light!" was the wordless cry of my soul ....

Do all of the lines follow the same meter? Why do you think that is? How do you think the meter of the poem relates to
the poem's meaning?
Answer:
The poem is written in iambic trimeter. Each foot is made up of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable, and each line contains three feet. The meter creates a steady rhythm and adds to the visual imagery of change as a continuous process. The last line doesn’t contain an unstressed syllable in the first foot. Scanning the poem allows the reader to look deeper into the rhythm and tone of the poem. If the meter is irregular and uneven the poem feels off-balance, whereas if the rhythm of the poem is regular and even it gives the reader a feeling of stability.

How would a film version most likely emphasize the women’s emotions during this scene? by focusing on the lighting in the background by focusing on the different props being used by focusing on the women’s varied costumes by focusing on the women’s facial expressions
Answer:
By focusing on the women’s facial expressions
Explanation:
When we're expressing our emotions, we don't use only our words (verbal communication). Nonverbal communication is also very important. Things such as facial expressions, gestures, posture, and tone of voice are all parts of nonverbal communication and represent powerful communication tools. They often reveal more than words. For example, if someone is sad and says they are not, we can still conclude how they truly feel based on their facial expressions and voice.
A film version of the given passage would emphasize the woman's emotions by focusing on her facial expressions. The rest of the options have nothing to do with that as they focus on the scene and costumes.
Answer:
By focusing on the women’s facial expressions

a Chinese philosopher Confucius said,"if your plan is for one year ,plant rice ;if your plan is for ten years,plant trees; if your plan is for hundred years educate children." What is the meaning of this saying? Elaborate this with example.
Answer:
This statement means that it takes a lot of time and resources to educate children and make them useful members of society. This education will result in lasting benefits.
Explanation:
1. This statement by Confucius shows that there are tasks that do not require a lot of time and effort to get benefits from them. He compared such tasks to the planting of rice and trees which do not take a long time to mature. However, some other tasks take considerable time and effort to realize. Educating children is one of those.
2. An example is the effort put in by parents to train their children from infancy till they become teenagers and adults. It takes time and effort to do this. The results of such training would last a long time as the children, now adults will impart the same knowledge to younger members of society.

The Lady of Shalott is “half sick of shadows” and only seeing life from a magic mirror in an island. Do you think she made the right choice by risking the curse and leaving the tower? Why or why not?
Answer:In Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poem, the Lady of Shallot is under a curse if she stops weaving and looks outside the walls of her tower. Since "she knows not what the curse may be," she is afraid to risk it--it could be death. She has set up a mirror behind her loom to catch reflections of what goes on outside her window. So far in her life she "delights" to see what passes by and weaves those images into her work. She sees young men and young women passing by, going to market, and she sees knights riding by in pairs, and she sees a funeral procession. Through all this she sings as she works and finds consolation in the "shadows of the world" she is able to see. However, one evening "two young lovers lately wed" appear in the mirror. This causes her to say, "I'm half sick of shadows." The vision of the happy newlyweds has stirred in her the deep desire for romantic love. "Half sick" is an understatement; it means she has reached the point where she is ready to risk everything for love. Next Sir Lancelot reflects in her mirror. His beautiful voice and his gallant appearance overpower her, and "she left the web, she left the loom/ She made three paces through the room." We're not told, but one can surmise that the lady believes at this point that she is not really living. She wants what others have, particularly a "loyal knight and true," and Sir Lancelot is the ideal man--she must at least see him in person, no matter what the cost. Perhaps she is hoping the curse will not be death, and she will get a chance to meet and marry Lancelot. But it seems as if she doesn't really pause to think it through. Having made the decision that she is "half-sick of shadows," that she needs something more, when the chance, however slight, for happiness appears in her mirror, she makes an instant emotional choice to take that chance. Unfortunately, it does result in her death, and she never knows that when Lancelot sees her lying in her boat, he reciprocates her interest in him.

What internal conflict does the princess have? What motives does the princess have for each possibility?
Answer: Depends..
Explanation:
What is the story/passage/narrative that goes with this question?
Answer:
The princess's conflict is internal because she has to choose between her love for her lover or her jealousy. Her motivations are that she wants her lover to live, but she cannot bear the thought of him marrying someone else, especially someone she hates the most. So if her motive was to choose the tiger's door, his lover would be punished and killed, but if she chose the lady's door, he would be spared and alive.

analyze the language and meaning of sentences 3-4. what does jefferson mean by saying that people do not change governments for ""light reasons""? why might people be more inclined to put up with a government that is less than satisfactory rather than change it? what appeals to emotion are in these sentences?
The term "government" refers to the authority that governs the entire country. It is a group of people who work together to serve the nation and act in its best interests. The government also serves to protect the country from outsiders.
The government has not been completely overhauled for nonsensical reasons. The arguments must be straightforward and suit the majority's interests, not only the monarch's.
Significant issues would be averted. Any more considerations are unnecessary as long as the people's desires are honored.
Therefore, it can be concluded that government is not reformed and people be more inclined to the government.
