And every soul it passed me by, Like the whiz of my crossbow!” Why is the choice of words in this simile especially appropriate, considering the Mariner's actions? from the book rime and the Ancient Mariner.

This sounds like an impossible task. The only thing I can suggest is that your parents make a major stink about this with the school and the Board of Education and talk with admissions counselors at the University to see what can be done about keeping your scholarship. I've never heard of anything like this but there's no way you're going to get all of that done in four hours. If all of your other grades are good and this is the only thing holding you back, I'd think you would have a case.

im hoping so.but the board said there was nothing that can be done.that if i didnt finish i would have to come back and finish. and that means i loose my scholarship. the college said ther was nothing they could do bc it a state regulation that you have to have 24 credits to graduate. i only have 22.500. 1 and a 1/2 short of graduating

I know that instead of trying to do your own assignment, you've been expecting other people to do it for you for the past six hours. And if you want more sympathetic answers, you might try explaining why you need the help. Otherwise you can hardly expect people to react otherwise.

Was there no teacher or administrator in your school who could have helped you before now? Was there no looking up this information anywhere on the internet? No friends who had the same assignment?

Don't panic. If I knew it, I would try to help you. I can only advise you to read through the material again and answer the questions the best you can. I'd also put in a note with the assignment explaining exactly what problems you've been having and how hard you worked to try to get it done- that might help you to just squeak through.

thank you. see ppl think i just dont want ot do the work.i just dont understand it,

I've very sorry I misjudged you. Please just do your best and do include that note with your assignment. In case you don't pass, I'd go further and talk to someone in charge and let them know again what you went through and the situation with that teacher who retired. You shouldn't lose a scholarship over one assignment. That isn't reasonable at all.
