Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Excerpt from A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
The new era began; the king was tried, doomed, and beheaded; the Republic of Liberty, Equality, Fraternity, or Death, declared for victory or death against the world in arms; the black flag waved night and day from the great towers of Notre Dame....
There was no pause, no pity, no peace, no interval of relenting rest, no measurement of time. Though days and nights circled as regularly as when time was young, and the evening and morning were the first day, other count of time there was none. Hold of it was lost in the raging fever of a nation, as it is in the fever of one patient. Now, breaking the unnatural silence of a whole city, the executioner showed the people the head of the king—and now, it seemed almost in the same breath, the head of his fair wife which had had eight weary months of imprisoned widowhood and misery, to turn it grey....
A revolutionary tribunal in the capital, and forty or fifty thousand revolutionary committees all over the land; a law of the Suspected, which struck away all security for liberty or life, and delivered over any good and innocent person to any bad and guilty one; prisons gorged with people who had committed no offence, and could obtain no hearing; these things became the established order and nature of appointed things, and seemed to be ancient usage before they were many weeks old. Above all, one hideous figure grew as familiar as if it had been before the general gaze from the foundations of the world—the figure of the sharp female called La Guillotine.
It was the popular theme for jests; it was the best cure for headache, it infallibly prevented the hair from turning grey, it imparted a peculiar delicacy to the complexion, it was the National Razor which shaved close: who kissed La Guillotine, looked through the little window and sneezed into the sack. It was the sign of the regeneration of the human race. It superseded the Cross. Models of it were worn on breasts from which the Cross was discarded, and it was bowed down to and believed in where the Cross was denied.
How do the historical conditions of this period affect this excerpt from the novel?
The relentless violent horror of the Reign of Terror expresses itself in the long, gruesomely detailed descriptions
The fact that there is terror in all periods of history is revealed in the description of the Reign of Terror continuing night and day without a pause
The rightness of the cause of the revolution is proven by the description of the thousands of revolutionary committees that sprang up
Dickens's lack of understanding of the revolution's horror is shown in his comical description of the guillotine.
Answer:
The fact that there is terror in all periods of history is revealed in the description of the Reign of Terror continuing night and day without a pause
Explanation:
The text shown above may influence the novel as a whole, due to its declaration of terror and constant violence. In all periods of the text we can see descriptions of terror situations, which, as the text itself presents, happened day and night, without pause or relief.
With this, this text can give the novel a sense of urgency, despair, fear and tiredness, showing that something really uncomfortable was happening in the place and that it influences the narrative efficiently.
The relentless violent horror of the Reign of Terror expresses itself in the long, gruesomely detailed descriptions.Answer:

whats a prejudice about the play "twelve angry men" ?
Answer:
Prejudice, those feelings about others based on race, gender, socioeconomic situations, and other factors, should never be a part of life-altering decisions. In a jury, prejudice should never influence votes, but the characters in 12 Angry Men do just that initially.
Explanation:
the 3rd juror was prejudice about the case he had a son who punched him. He took the case personally.
i need help on doing my paper tthe topic is shoukd there be free edcuation which i already chose on yes there should im giving 24 points
Answer:
Hi there,the answer is
yes
Explanation:
because there are some families who cannot handle the school fees of most schools so free education can give a chance for children to gain education without any problems
have a great day :]
Explanation:
since you choose yes, I suppose you have a reason for saying so but you're are not sure of how to covey your thoughts. Just think about it.
what would it be like if education is free? Its sounds interesting and attractive right?
There are so many people who are yearning to learn but have no access to education. Free education would pave ways for those people to learn.
moreover, I know there are scholarship for students. Have you ever wondered if those scholarship packages are available to everyone?
I know how it feels to have the zeal, determination and passion to learn but you don't have the easiest means to get educated.
The World we are living in is growing in every point especially in the technological sector. We need more educated people, those who are strong, talented to get access to equipping ourselves. Education should be made available to all.
Education brings great form of knowledge and it is never a waste.
listen, when we invest in education we invest in knowledge and when we do this we get powerful results in the future.
Say yes to free education because an investment in education is a strong profit.
people's lives and dreams should not be shattered because of no access to education.
we are in this together and we will make it together.

excerpt from "A Cooking Revolution: How Clean Energy and Cookstoves Are Saving Lives" by Chef José Andrés, June 7, 2016
Cooking: it's a simple act that has brought families around the world together for thousands and thousands of years.
As a chef, I can think of few things more beautiful than that. However, I also know how deadly such a simple act can be , not only to our health, but to our environment.
Think about it: For Americans, turning on the stove means simply turning a knob or switch. For people living in developing countries, particularly women and children, it means hours of collecting fuels like firewood, dung, or coal to burn in a rudimentary, smoky cookstove or over an open fire. The result is a constant source of toxic smoke that families breathe in daily, causing diseases like child pneumonia, heart disease, and lung cancer , not to mention taking a child away from her education.
In fact, diseases caused by smoke from open fires and stoves claim 4.3 million lives every year. That's more than AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis combined.
And the environment suffers, too. When people collect wood every day from their local forests to create charcoal or fuel for wood-burning stoves, it creates an unsustainable pace of deforestation that leads to mudslides, loss of watershed, and other environmental consequences. These stoves also contribute up to 25 percent of black carbon emissions, a pollutant that contributes directly to climate change.
You see, from what we cook to how we cook, our food connects with our lives on so many levels. That's why having access to better technology and clean energy for cooking is as equally important as the ingredients in the food being prepared.
It's also why I'm proud to support an effort to bring clean cookstoves and fuels to millions of people in developing countries.
Together with the United Nations, the U.S. government, and partners around the world, the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves focuses on working with local communities and organizations to develop a market for cookstoves and fuels that significantly reduce emissions, cook more efficiently, and fit with local customs and culture....
The Obama administration's investment goes a long way toward achieving our goal of bringing access to clean cookstoves and fuels to 100 million households in places like China, Guatemala, Kenya, and India by 2020.
Just last month, India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced his plan to connect 50 million Indian families to clean cooking gas over the next three years. This is an important step being taken at an unprecedented scale, and it could help protect the lives of millions, while also improving India's environment.
That's powerful, people! Mothers can be healthier. Young girls have more time to go to school. Forests grow again. People can feed themselves without risking their lives to cook a meal.
That's what we can accomplish by providing clean cookstoves and fuels. And that's a simple act that can change the world for years and years to come.

A.to compare what India is doing with what the United Nations and the United States are doing
B.to provide an example of what one country is doing to address the problems introduced in the article
C.to garner external support and funding to expand India's program beyond the current plan
D.to explain why countries are likely to be unable to address the problem without support
Answer:
C.to garner external support and funding to expand India's program beyond the current plan
Explanation:
The phrase that best describes the purpose for the author describing India's plan is to hopefully garner more external support and funding so that the program of getting cooking stoves to more families in developing countries can be achieved.
From the excerpt, the author talked about the dangers of gathering firewood to light up and cook and some of the dangers include deforestation, health problems (sometimes leading to death due to inhalation of smoke) and less time for children to go to school.
By describing India's plan, the author is hoping to get more external support and funding so the plan can be expanded.
Answer:
B. to provide an example of what one country is doing to address the problems introduced in the article

How is the central idea developed in the text, "Don't Hate on the Trait"? Follow ACE and provide an explanation as to how the answer connects to your evidence.
Answer:
The central idea of the text is developed around the concept of "construction".
Explanation:
The text talks about how human beings are built, both in biological and behavioral ways. For this, the text creates an environment where it relates the construction of the human being with the construction of residences and shows how different factors allow residences to be built, so that human beings are built. After presenting this concept, the text describes how we are constituted physically and biologically by our genes and how it is immutable and does not depend on our will.
The text also shows how we are built psychologically and behaviorally by the environment in which we live. This construction, however, is changeable, since we can modify the environment in which we operate, as well as our personality.

In the play "Trifles," Women were regarded as lower than man. In the play. It was evident that there was a gender divide between men and women during the Glaspell's time.

Lens Quotation: "Character is what you are in the dark." -Dwight Lyman Moody
Answer:
What Dwight means to imply here is that your personal integrity is dependent entirely on what you do when you think no one is watching. How strong is your moral compass? Now I can think of a few books this quote would apply to, Wuthering Heights- or Scorpions. Scorpions from Walter Dean Meyers is about gang violence and the sort. So there's a lot of morality talk there. The prompt wants you to analyze a book you've read with Dwight's words in mind. You're looking for a book that has character integrity as a theme. Honesty, Deception, those kinds of conflicting themes.
Explanation:
Answer: There are many books in which I could pull from, but the best example would be The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien. Tolkien throws the reader into a mystical world set in Middle Earth. We are introduced with a Hobbit who enjoys a quaint simple life. Like many Hobbits, Bilbo Baggins does not like adventures, as it is not in their "nature." But Gandalf comes by to prove otherwise. During the novel, Bilbo is recruited by Gandalf to help a pack of Dwarves reclaim their lost home. When Bilbo accepted this journey, we are already seeing Bilbo's true colors coming through. Bilbo scurries along to meet the rest of his party as the entirety of Bag End shuns him. A great example of Bilbo's character in the dark is when he is literally in the dark. His quick thoughts are what saves him from being Gollum's next meal when he falls into his cave. Bilbo saved his own life that day because of his witty puzzles and quick actions against Gollum. At heart, Bilbo is an adventurer, just like the Took side of his family. With the help of a couple of new friends, Bilbo was able to show his "true character in the dark" to the world.
What is most likely Orwell's purpose for writing this
passage?
to demonstrate that Snowball is more creative than
Napoleon
to illustrate the power struggle that Napoleon will likely win
to reveal Napoleon's real feelings about plans for the
windmill
to slaby the interest of the rest of the farm in Snowball's
windmill
The most likely purpose George Orwell had for writing the passage of "Animal Farm" is the following:
B. To illustrate the power struggle that Napoleon will likely win.
In "Animal Farm," both Napoleon and Snowball are pigs who are put in charge of the farm due to their being the most intelligent animals.The other animals trust them to manage things and make Animal Farm a place where all animals are treated equally and fairly.Snowball is studying and making plans for the construction of a windmill, which will make the animals' lives easier.However, Napoleon has been against the windmill since the beginning.The passage we are analyzing here shows that Napoleon not only despises Snowball's plans, but that will likely do something about them.The fact that he urinates on the plans serves as foreshadowing - it shows what will happen in the future.In fact, Napoleon will kick Snowball out and take over the plans to build the mill.Learn more about the topic here:

Explanation:
As part of the greenhouse effect, Earth’s surface radiates heat back into the atmosphere and the atmosphere absorbs this heat. Why do areas near the equator generally radiate more energy back into the atmosphere than areas near the poles? (I am doing this in English class)
A. Areas near the equator have more clouds in the atmosphere than areas near the poles.
B. Areas near the equator receive more incoming solar energy than areas near the poles.
C. The greenhouse effect only occurs near the equator.
D. The greenhouse effect only occurs near the poles.
The correct answer is B. Areas near the equator receive more incoming solar energy than areas near the poles.
Explanation:
The equator is located in the center of the planet from North to South, this location cause this zone and nearby zones to receiver more solar energy than areas near the poles. This occurs because the natural tilt of Earth makes sun rays directly hit the equator all the time of the year, while areas in the poles are not hit directly and the exposition to sunlight varies with the seasons of the years. This explains why in the equator the temperatures are higher than in the poles. Besides this, the difference in radiation received makes areas in the equator radiate more energy back due to global warming gases, and the global warming phenomenon.

more powerful emotional response in the reader or viewer? Provide at least two pieces of evidence
support your argument, establishing reasons for your claims. Explain why you have chosen the poem on
the painting, and why the other is less powerful. Use specific details from the poem and the painting to
support your arguments. (15 points)
Answer: The answer is provided below
Explanation:
Bruegel depended upon himself and developed new ways which can be used to interpret ancient myths in a way that was didactic. Bruegel's paintings became an inspiration for artists which later came. Landscape With The Fall Of Icarus undermined the genre of landscape painting.
Bruegel’s primary strength was defining artistic modernism at a time when only few were aware of it. The poem Landscape With The Fall Of Icarus written by William Carlos was a mere summary. For example, the first stanza was just a recap of the painting’s inner season by using shallow language.
I believe Brueghel's painting is more subtle, original and therefore, creates an emotional response that is more powerful in the reader or viewer.
