What all were Robert Frost’s horse’s thoughts? in detailfrom the story STOPPING BY THE WOODS ON A SNOWY EVENING by Robert Frost |
|
Answer» Answer: Robert frost’s poem ‘Stopping by the woods on a SNOWY evening’ shares with US an experience of the POET, who stopped on his WAY to enjoy the beauty of the snowy-filled woods one evening. Though he wanted to stay there, for a longer TIME to watch the lovely, dark and deep woods, he could not do so. He had to go, as he had promises to keep and a long way to go, before he sleeps. So, the title of the poem is rather simple and straight forward. It is something that suggests the very outline of the story. This title has the potential to build curiosity, as people generally don’t stop in the dark-woods, that too, on a snowy evening. So, we the readers feel that there might be something interesting in it. So, thematically the title is just and apt. |

The financial crime they steal the money of user or account holders. Likewise, they also stole data of companies which can lead to financial crimes. Also, transactions are heavily risked because of them. Every year hackers stole lakhs and crores of rupees of businessmen and government. Privacy crime includes stealing your private data which you do not want to share with the world. Moreover, DUE to it, the people suffer a lot and some even commit SUICIDE because of their data’s misuse. In, hacking they intentional deface a website to cause damage or loss to the public or owner. APART from that, they destroy or make changes in the existing websites to diminish its value. Modern-day terrorism has grown way beyond what it was 10-20 years ago. But cyber terrorism is not just related to terrorists or terrorist organizations. But to threat some PERSON or property to the level of creating fear is also Cyber Terrorism. Web world or cyberspace is a massive community of millions and billions of users and websites.

Above all, Cyber Crime is a violation of not only law but of human rights too. |

Answer» Explanation: WATER, known to be the universal solvent, plays a key ROLE in the survival of various forms of life on earth. It is used for various purposes such as drinking, cleaning, cooking, washing and bathing. Besides these domestic uses, major amount of water is used in the agricultural sector mainly for the purpose of irrigation. A substantial amount of this substance is also used in the industrial sector. However, unfortunately despite being aware about the importance of water in our lives, people around the world are leaving no stone unturned in wasting water and deteriorating its quality. The techniques used for irrigation in many parts of the world including India are OLD and mundane and often cause immense loss of water. SEVERAL industries MAKE use of a good amount of water however they end up throwing their waste in water bodies without realizing that the deterioration of water will ultimately lead to their own loss. Many areas around the world are facing water deficit and many more are likely to face this problem in the times to come. It is time the government must take effective measures to store and save water and channelize it properly for appropriate distribution. The general public must also be sensitized on efficient use water |

NOTE: All work to be done in a thin copySUBJECT: ENGLISH, CLASS SRead the passage.Abraham Lincoln. the sateenth President of United States of America writes a letter to hisson's (Robert Todd) teacher when he started going to school, requesting the teacher to treathim gently Uncoln calls this as a strange and new adventure which is going to teach Robertmany things in life.Requesting the teacher to hold him by his hand and make him realize thatfor every enemy, there is a friend and that he should be able to judge who is true and who isnot. Everyone around him is not a bad person but many are dedicated too He also tells theteacher to teach him how to gracefully lose and enjoy winning when he does He wants histeacher to teach him to be gentle with people, steer him away from envy, to laugh when he issad to scoff at cynics that there is no shame in tears and to ponder over the extreme mysteryof birds in the sky. Developing faith in his own ideas even if everyone tells him that they arewrong is something that he wants his teacher to teach him. The teacher is requested to teachhis son the patience to listen to others to be brave, to have sublime faith in God .not tofollow the cnwd but to filter all that he hears and take only the good that comes throughThese are the things that he tells his son's teacher to teach his son in a letter because hebelleves his son to be a nice boy who desenes all these things so that he is able to face theharsh realities and challenges of life.Now answer the following:a) How is the beginning of school described by Abraham Lincoln ?a) Why do you think Uncoln wanted his son to be trained so wel by his teacher?What does it mean by the words 'steer him away from envy?Why does Robert's father want his son's teacher to hold him by his hand ?Now, find the meanings of the following words and form sentences with them. |
|
Answer» Answer: a) I dont think its mentioned in the passage.... b) because the beginning of the school is very much important time of a child's growth. They learn everything from an early age and remember it till adulthood. so, its important for EVERY child to be treated gently and in care for them to grow into a better person. c) 'steer away from envy' probably MEANS that he wants the teacher to teach Robert how to not get on the path of jealousy as it can RUIN anyone. and to be happy and content in what he has. d) he asked the teacher to hold Robert by his hand so that the teacher could help Robert in the times when he FAILS, when he is down and help him back up, to REMIND him that there is someone who is looking out for him. it is actually a very important thing to be done to a child. e) you didn't mention the words....

Little thingsLittle drops of water,Little grains ofMake the mighty oceanAnd the pleasantThus the little minutes,Humble though theyMake the mighty agesOfLittle deeds of kindness,Little words ofMake this earth an Eden.Like the heaven a(love - above / sand-land/be-eternity)• What important message does the above poem convey |
|
Answer» Explanation: Little Things" is a 19th-century poem by Julia Abigail Fletcher Carney, written in Boston, Massachusetts. Little Things Little drops of water, Little grains of sand, Make the mighty ocean And the pleasant land. Thus the little minutes, Humble though they be, Make the mighty ages Of eternity. HistoryEdit In 1845, when studying phonography in Stephen Pearl Andrews' and Augustus F. Boyle's class, Boston, Carney was asked to give an impromptu exercise on the blackboard. Only ten minutes were allowed, and in that time, she wrote the first verse of "Little Things". It became a favorite of children in Sunday school exhibitions from that time on, and was recited and sung thousands of times. It was first published in a Sunday school paper, Gospel Teacher (renamed, Myrtle).[1][2][a] Soon after her phonographic poem was published, it appeared in the METHODIST Sunday-School Advocate, with an additional verse about missionary pennies, to which she laid no claim.[2] This poem came to be published uncredited as a children's rhyme and hymn in many 19th century magazines and books, sometimes attributed to Ebenezer Cobham Brewer, Daniel Clement Colesworthy, or Frances S. Osgood, but the EARLIEST publications of it clearly are those of Carney.[b] A later final verse read: Little deeds of kindness, Little words of love, Make our pleasant earth below Like the heaven above. This was quoted in Hanson's Our Woman Workers: BIOGRAPHICAL Sketches of Women Eminent in the Universalist Church for Literary, Philanthropic and Christian Work (1881) These were the final words of the poem in the original publication, but later versions published anonymously by other authors appended various additions to this. It has also often appeared credited to Carney in a variant form: Little deeds of kindness, Little words of love, Help to make earth happy Like the heaven above. Cultural referenceEdit "Little Things" was parodied by Gelett Burgess in his poem "Tidiness" in Goops and How to Be Them, A Manual of Manners for Polite Infants (1908):[4] Little scraps of paper, Little crumbs of food, Make a room untidy Everywhere they're strewed.
