Answer:
The new year dawns and Miep and Mr. Kraler come bearing a cake.
The residents get so jazzed up about the cake that it brings tears to our eyes.
They fight like children about who should cut the cake fairly.
We see the greed in Mr. Van Daan, and it's not a pretty sight.
Besides trying to finagle the biggest piece of cake for himself, he asks Miep to sell Mrs. Van Daan's fur coat.
Mr. Van Daan who wants to sell the memento for cigarettes.
When Mr. Kraler tries to tell Mr. Frank some important information in private, it's actually Margot who goes ballistic.
She wants to know it firsthand, and Mr. Frank agrees that Kraler should tell everyone what he knows.
Kraler relates that there is a man who works at the business who keeps asking about the Franks, and whether Kraler knows their whereabouts.
He keeps staring at the bookcase that hides the door to the secret annex.
Then he asks for a raise; it's clearly blackmail.
People start having hysterics, but it's the faithful Mr. Frank who makes the logical decision to pay the man half. Even if it's bribery, there's nothing they can do but sit and wait to see what happens.
Kraler agrees and leaves the room.
Anne fires off a storm of repressed anger about being a teenager trapped in the war.
She blames the grownups for her problems and explodes on her mother.
But after slamming the door and forgetting her cake, she discovers an unlikely ally in Peter.
He is totally in awe of her massive demonstration of "sticking it to the man" and joins in her ranting about their situation.
Peter then says she can come to his room whenever she wants to talk about things. Hmm… do we detect a friendship forming? Or is it something more?
In this scene, we get some more sporadic information from Anne.
Mr. Kraler is in the hospital with some ulcers (we wonder what gave him that?) and American forces have landed in Italy.
The food rations have been cut even further and everyone is starving.
The scene ends with Anne not yearning for the war to be over, but simply to have someone to really talk to.

rhythm
1-beautiful
2-choppy
3-melodious
4-aggressive
Answers
Answer:
1- melodious
2- beautiful
Explanation:
The words that best describe the rhythm of the poem "Annabel Lee" by Edgar Allan Poe are melodious and beautiful. First, it is melodious because it combines patterns of stressed and unstressed syllables in the lines that create the beat and pace of the poem. Besides, there are alliteration of the sounds /l/, /m/ and /b/ and repetition of the words "sea" and "Annabel Lee", which contributes to rhythm and creates a serious and thoughtful tone. Second, the rhythm is beautiful as a result of this tone of sadness and melancholy. According to Edgar Allan Poe, beauty is associated with sadness and loss. In this particular case, beauty is associated with the death of a woman, which is expressed through the use of a reflective tone created by the rhythm of the poem.

First, Identify the direct object and then the indirect object (if necessary) in the following sentence: Some people can even see it from the rooftop. it, rooftop it even, see people
Answers
Indirect objects are rare. You can read for pages before you encounter one. For an indirect object to appear, a sentence must first have a direct object.
Direct objects follow transitive verbs [a type of action verb]. If you can identify the subject and verb in a sentence, then finding the direct object—if one exists—is easy. Just remember this simple formula:
Subject + Verb + what? or who? = Direct Object

How does the author use comedic elements to describe the bureaucracy of the animals?? What impact do these elements have on the theme of the story?
Answers
The bureaucratic style in the animals meeting is compared to real life incidents which take place in the life of human beings.
The behaviour of the chairman is extremely humorous when he says that animals in favour of the motion will clean their right ears with right paws.
He adds more fun by asking animals against the motion to clean their left ears with left paws.
Answer:
The story’s theme is the disconnect from regular conventions of society. Sandburg provides a humorous depiction of the animals’ meeting on a serious matter. He places animals with nonsensical names in real locales, such as Philadelphia and Minnesota, to juxtapose the real and the imaginary. He also depicts the animals taking part in meetings that have the same bureaucracy and forced formality often found in real-life meetings.
"It is no picnic to lose your tail and we are here for business," he said, banging his gavel again.
The animals’ meeting offers an amusing representation of the bureaucratic meetings that humans often engage in:
"All in favor of the motion," said the chairman, "will clean their right ears with their right paws."
And all the blue foxes and all the yellow flongboos began cleaning their right ears with their right paws.
"All who are against the motion will clean their left ears with their left paws," said the chairman.
And all the blue foxes and all the yellow flongboos began cleaning their left ears with their left paws.
Sandburg’s parody on the bureaucracy and formality of society piques the reader’s interest by making the story comical and entertaining.

Which of the following titles is most likely a work of fiction? A. Popular Music Styles of the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s B. How to Build Your Own Music Studio in Your Basement C. The Music Box's Missing Note: An Oak Grove Mystery D. Nashville, Tennessee: Country Music's Capital City
Answers
The title, “The Music Box's Missing Note: An Oak Grove Mystery” is most likely a work of fiction.
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
As the title suggests, the word mystery means that the writer will give his/her own narrative of the missing note, which is fictional in nature. This means that the writer is creating a story by taking a music box’s missing note as a central theme and building a story around it. If a story is built it means that it is not based on a true story. True stories are non-fiction, thus making this option C as fiction.

Why does hamlet believe that altering the murder of gonzago will provide proof of claudius's guilt
Answers
Answer:
Hamlet adapts the play "The Murder of Gonzago" because he wants to use the play as a way of revealing the truth about the death of his father. Hamlet believes that plays work as mirrors of society, and in this case he will use this play as a reflection of what happened to his father. The reaction of the audience will become the evidence he needs to prove that King Claudius killed his father.
Explanation:
"The murder of Gonzago" was originally a kind of morality play that Shakespeare took and changed a little bit to serve the purpose that was explained above.
William Shakespeare usually employed the strategy of including a play within a play.
In this text, Hamlet asks a group of actors to perform the play before the Danish court. Before doing so, he instructs them on what to say and how to say it.
This play within the play is very important for Hamlet, since it is part of his plan to see whether his uncle is guilty of the murder of his father or not; that's why this play will show all the sequence of events that took place in Denmark before, during and after the death of king Hamlet. Prince Hamlet's idea is to pay close attention to King Claudius' reaction to the play, so as to have evidence of his involvement in the assassination of his father.
