In paragraph two of the article, Myers uses the popular phrase, "greening of
America," but puts quotation marks around it to indicate he's using it in a
new way. What does he mean by it?
What, according to Myers, seems to be the true relationship between
happiness and money? Would Myers say that the relationship is the same
for people living in abject poverty as for people living above the poverty
line? Are the short-term effects of having more money the same as the
long-term effects?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The phrase Greening of America was popularised by Charles Reich when he authored a book by that title which drew loads of accolades as well as criticisms. It rested on several issues.  

The book spoke to the evolution of the American global perspective, using three paradigms which he termed Consciousness.

The first had to do with the self-sufficiency of rural life the next spoke to the New Deal, the second world war and life in the 1950s, whilst the third consciousness he branded "the counterculture’s embrace of personal happiness over material success."  

According to Reich the foundation of the third consciousness comprises of self-liberation from the preprogrammed absorption of society's values.

So when Meyer puts the phrase "Greening of America" in quotation marks Meyer is referring to America's growing sentiments/preference of money as an indication of a better life.  This according to him reflects a cultural   a shift toward greater materialism, money especially instead of self-liberation as already put forward by Reich.

Cheers!

        Humor

The sign says to keep off the grass, but there is only dirt in the lot

        Irony.

Explanation:

Exaggeration/Hyperbole: This is an obvious over-amplification of claims or events for added effect. It is usually not taken literally. This is used to pass across a message to show the severity or consequence of something.

An example is " I was so hungry, i could swallow a horse".

This does not mean that the person can literally swallow a horse but just to show the extent of the hunger.

Humor: Humor is the quality of being comical or amusing usually to elicit laughter.

The example above, "What must you do before you get off a bus> Get on it".

This uses humor to show that one must first be on a bus before he can think of getting off and the question is constructed in a funny way.

Irony: This is the expression of one's feelings through the use of words that signify the opposite of what is really meant, usually for emphasis.

The reader, White Dolphin, you have read about Dougie Evans and Kara's speeches to save the dolphin. Write what you think of the two speeches? Whose appeal was more effective? Why? If you were in the audience, whose speech would have convinced you?

Answers

Answer:

white Dolphin is the second awesome book by Gill Lewis. It is set in a fishing village in Cornwall and a lot of the action takes place on the beach, the cliffs or in the harbour. Many of the people in the community depend on the sea to earn a living.

Kara and her Dad are depressed, upset and confused. Kara's mother, who was a marine biologist and conservationist, disappeared while she was on a research trip, and Kara and her Dad are living with his sister Bev, but Bev is expecting another baby and the house is already overcrowded so Kara and her Dad will have to move out soon.

They have so many debts that they are going to have to sell their beloved boat Moana which is particularly special as Kara's parents restored it together.

They are at war with Dougie Evans and his son Jake who have a grudge against them. Dougie employs a lot of people in his fishing fleet and he wants to get the ban on dredging in the harbour lifted, so that he can make more money easily, but Kara is determined that it should be kept, so that the seabed and all its creatures will not be destroyed.

The white Dolphin plays an important part in the story and it is a precious link with Kara's mother.

This book has lots of things in it that remind me of Sky Hawk, such as the endangered animals, the sick or disabled friend, the rather strange old person that the villagers don't like very much, and the professional environmentalists.

In both books the mean characters change for the better.

There are lots of very strong characters in this book. As well as Kara who was so determined. I liked Miss Pendula who many people think is mad. She lives alone on the cliffs and cares for sick birds.

There is also Felix who achieved amazing things in spite of his disability and Daisy, Kara's cousin who stood up to the bullies who were making fun of Felix even though she is only five.

I admired the Head teacher who was kind and understanding to Kara even though she did something really bad at school.

In the end, Kara achieves something that no adult has been able to do.

Read the book to find out how she does it!

I would recommend this book to anyone from seven to seventy plus , especially if they care about the environment.

The correct answers are:

1) C

2) A

Explanation:

Let's start by clarifying what alliteration is.

It is a literary device that consists of repeating a variety of the same or similar sounds within a text, hence it is considered a figure of diction due to the effect it produces. Now, the consequent repetition of a sound must occur in the same phrase or word, in this case: windy.

On the other hand we must identify the mood of these lines, and we must say that it is wistful since the speaker is longing to return to the sea, he can even hear its call.

The girl stared at the boy from across the classroom. Who was he? Why did he always act in such a manner? His mouth was always moulded into a frown yet he still had that same twinkle in his eyes. She couldnt help but wonder about his personal life. Did he have family? Was he always alone? Without thinking, she stood up and walked over to the boy. The teacher looked up from her paperwork, locking her eyebrows in a downwards direction. The teacher pointed her finger at the girl. ''Sit down, young lady,'' she said calmy, but still having that same, angry expression. The girl ignored her, whereas everyone else in the classroom turned their heads to the back of the classroom, and stared at the girl and the boy - the wonder kids.

The girl sat next to the boy, on the empty plastic chair beside him. He was always by himself at school - was people being kind to him? ''I will work with him, for the project, miss.'' said the girl quietly. The teacher nodded and then began looking back at the pile of filled test worksheets on her desk. ''Who are you?'' she said.
