Do these questions make sense? Do "Who lives with you?" and "Who cooks in your house?" actually make sense? Is it better to say "Who do you live with?" in the case of the first question? Thank you in advance!

If we must die At a time when Jim Craw Laws (1876-1965) were imposed in American society, it was not surprising that African Americans fought for their basic rights and equality under the law. An example of means of fight is the poem If we must die by Jamaican writer and representative figure of the Harlem Renaissance, Claude Mckay. It was written in 1919, a crucial year in matters of radical and ethnical prejudices, when riots across the US would break in plenty of areas. This poem highlights the question of men who are fighting honourably so that their death will not be meaningless but an opportunity to show strength, nobility, and purpose. “If we must die, o let us nobly die so that our precious blood may not be shed in vain”. The Unite the Right rally was intended to oppose the removal of a statue of Robert E. Lee from Emancipation Park and to unify the white nationalist movement in the United States. This event could be related to the poem by Mckay in the sense that both are trying to fight for their own ideas. Let us not forget about all the injustices that different groups faced though history, such as in this case African Americans. It is important to keep in mind all these facts so as to drive into a more fair society. As Spanish philosopher George Santayana pointed out, “Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”

Poor style I am writing an essay about a film and in one part I mention the following ideas: 'This will be the beginning of a serious of misunderstandings regarding his religious affiliation, connecting him with terrorism and facing several interrogations and rejections.' I know there are too many -ing forms and this implies a poor style. I would like to know how I can improve these sentences. Thank you!

Astonished by Pablo Picasso Art affects people, society and our daily lives in many different ways. For this reason it has always been one of my favourite themes. As a child I was fascinated when my parents took me to art galleries and museums, especially the Museum of Fine Arts in Asturias. I really enjoyed music, literature and sculpture but painting was definitely my favourite subject. I used to attend painting classes and tried to imitate the works of so many great Spanish artists such as Pablo Picasso, the co-founder of the Cubist movement and the surrealist painter Salvador Dalí. I remember a trip I made long time ago with my school classmates and my teacher to Madrid. We spent a couple of days in the capital visiting several touristic places and museums. The ‘National Museum and Centre of Art Reina Sofia’, where el Guernica is located, was one of them. Once I saw this extraordinary masterpiece by Picasso I was surprised as the painting was much bigger than what I had previously imagined. I immediately understood why it is considered the most moving and powerful anti-war paintings in history. While contemplating the painting I felt transported to the suffering of the Spanish Civil War and I also felt the violence, the chaos and the agony people depicted in the work were experiencing after the bombing thrown by Condor Legion and the Fascist Italian Aviazione Legionaria in the village with the same name as the painting, Guernica. In spite of not being especially interested in cubism I found the work as one of the best creations I had ever seen before. The composition and the volumetric figures led the viewer a chance to admire and try to guess what is painted on the canvas. By going deeper into the analysis of this work I was able to understand in more detail the history of the Spain and even its culture as the most astonishing and dominant elements in Picasso’s work were the bull and the horse, two important characters in our country. I would fully recommend visiting this marvellous masterpiece and hopefully you will enjoy it as much as I did.

What is the historical meaning of New Zealand's national anthem 'God defend New Zealand'? 'God defend New Zealand' God of nations at thy feet In the bonds of love we meet. Hear our voices, we entreat, God defend our free land. Guard Pacific's triple star From the shafts of strife and war, Make her praises heard afar, God defend New Zealand. E Ihoa Atua, O nga Iwi! Matoura, Ata whakarongona; Me aroha roa. Kia hua ko te pai; Kia tau to atawhai; Manaakitia mai Aotearoa. Men of every creed and race Gather here before thy face, Asking thee to bless this place, God defend our free land. From dissension, envy, hate, And corruption guard our state, Make our country good and great, God defend New Zealand.
