Read the excerpt from A Black Hole Is NOT a Hole by Carolyn Cinami DeCristofano.

Einstein's idea of gravity had big consequences. It helped explain some observations that Newton's idea didn't account for. It also opened our minds to amazing new possibilities. For example, taking his cue from Einstein's idea that space bends, scientist Karl Schwarzschild began to think about what would happen if a place in space were extremely distorted. His answer: light would follow the hyper-bent space, never to turn away from it. This was the first prediction of a black hole. At first, some scientists (including Einstein!) rejected Schwarzschild's ideas. Others were intrigued and began searching the skies for real black holes. Just decades later, they found the first of them. It just goes to show: sometimes, as Einstein himself once said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge."

Which sentence is the best summary of the excerpt?

Einstein opened our minds to amazing new possibilities and showed us that imagination is more important than knowledge.
Scientists searched the skies for decades before they found the first real black holes.
Karl Schwarzschild used his imagination when he thought about light and extremely distorted parts of space.
Einstein’s idea that space bends inspired scientists to predict and later discover black holes.

Answers

Answer:

The conflict between the narrator and her father develop the story in the sense that:

A The narrator and her father disagree on the  content of her speech, revealing how their  differing experiences have contributed to  their views on free expression.

Explanation:

This question refers to the short story "Daughter of Invention" by author J.ulia Alvarez.

The main character and narrator has been chosen to write a speech to be given in front of teachers and classmates. And she does her job beautifully, filled with inspiration and passion. Her speech talks of strength, independence, of students surpassing their masters. But, to her shock and disappointment, the narrator's father disapproves of the speech to the point of tearing it to pieces.

The narrator and her father have completely different life experiences. Unlike her, he has lived through a dictatorship. He is still afraid of speaking his mind, of talking too loud, of losing loved ones, of being taken into a black car and disappearing, even though they now live in America. To the father, one should be careful and considerate when speaking. To the daughter, one should speak one's mind openly. The conflict between them develops the plot by highlighting their differences, as well as by helping them understand each other more profoundly.

Note: For some reason, Brainly usually has trouble posting answers that contain names starting with the letters j, u, and l. That is why I had to spell J.ulia like this.

Explanation:

  This question is incomplete. It refers to a speech given at the Youth Takeover of the United Nations by Malala Yousafzai’s.

Malala Yousafzai, who won the Nobel Peace Prize, is a young Pakistani known for her defense of the right to female education in her country and who on October 9, 2012 was the victim of an attack carried out by a linked group the Taliban.

She was the victim of an attack in Mingora when two members of the TTP got on the school bus that Malala was in and shot her with a rifle, hitting her in the skull and neck. The then spokesman for the terrorist group, Ehsanullah Ehsan, affirmed that they would try to kill her again and claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement in which they reiterated that the "sharia", which is against the secular educational model, forced them to do so.

The young woman was admitted to a hospital in Rawalpindi, near Islamabad, the capital of the country, where they removed a bullet that was lodged in her neck, near the spinal cord.

That is why when giving her first public lecture after this attack, she recounted all the love and good wishes of people from all over the world.

Write a story that clearly illustrates the saying do not count your chicken before they are hatched

Answers

Answer:I probably know that chickens come from eggs. A female chicken or hen lays eggs and then they hatch into chicks. Well, not all of them. Some eggs do not have a baby bird.

So, at our farm, a hen produces 15 eggs. If the farmer counts the eggs, she might expect to have 15 chicks once the eggs are hatched. But then five of those eggs do not hatch. Her expectations were not met, so she feels disappointed. She tells her friend how sad she feels. The friend may say to her, “Well, don’t count your chicken before they hatch.

Another way of saying this proverb is: “Don’t count your chickens until they are hatched.”

So, this proverb means you should not depend on something that has yet to happen. It is unwise to make plans based on something that hasn’t happened. Another meaning of this proverb is this: Do not assume to have everything you want until you actually have it in your hands.

Now, let’s talk about the folklore part of our explanation.

“Don’t count your chickens until they are hatched” is a very old saying. Language experts say it appears in different forms and in many different cultures. It is also used in Aesop's Fables, a collection of stories from between 1,300 and 1,400 years ago.

The fable we are talking about is known as “The Milkmaid and Her Pail.” A long time ago, a young woman carried a bucket of milk on her head. As she walked, the milkmaid dreamed of a better life. She wanted to be rich. So, she thought she could sell her milk and then use the money to buy chickens. With chickens she could sell eggs and earn more money!

With lots of money, the milkmaid could shake her head “no” to all the men in her village who wanted her hand in marriage. The young woman was so caught up in her thoughts that she actually shook her head “no.” This caused the pail of milk to fall from her head and crash to the ground. Along with it -- her dreams of becoming rich and independent.

She told me that he did not have one arm and that he had lost it a few years back in an accident. It had also cost him his job. She asked me if I could lend him some money and give him my address. She said that he would repay it to me in a couple of days after he met her uncle who had got him a job. Everyone looked at me as I gave him a Rs.500/- note from my wallet.

A month passed and I had not seen him. In fact, I had almost forgotten about him. One day, when I was dining with a friend in a restaurant, I saw the same woman come in with a girl. The woman had both hands and he was swirling a key ring on the index finger of his right hand. I realized that I had been a fool to blindly believe that woman’s sob story.

Now that you have finished reading the works in this unit, consider the ideals, values, and themes that early American writers considered to be important and worthy of inclusion in their journals, sermons, and poems. In your response, answer the questions below and number your answers (1-4).


1. What are these ideals and values?


2. Why were they important?


3. How do different writers incorporate them into their works?


4. Did certain values or ideals seem to become more or less important over time? If so, why? Cite specific examples from the writings of Bradford, Winthrop, Bradstreet, and Edwards in your response.

Answers

Answer:

Early American Writers

The ideals, values, and themes of their essays:

1. The ideals and values are:

divine grace, salvation, focus on God, and purity of thoughts and actions.

2. These ideals and values were important.  They revealed man's relationship with the creator and the place of eternity.  They emphasized that man's ultimate purpose was not to acquire all the material things on earth. Man was created for a purpose, to gain the salvation of his or her soul.

3. The different writers incorporated these ideals in their works.  They reminded their readers of the reasons for leaving England.  The pilgrims were in search of religious freedom in New England.  Having found this freedom, the writers urged them not to pursue materialistic possessions at the detriment of their souls.

4. Yes.  Most of the values and ideals became less important to the Christians over time because they lost their focus on God.  Following the age of Enlightenment, Americans became too secular.  They woefully neglected their relationships with their Creator-God.  Instead, they focused their attention on the gains brought about by science and technology.

Explanation:

William Bradford (1589 – 1657) is best known for his "Of Plymouth Plantation," which documented events that emerged from the New England colony.

John Winthrop (588 – 1649) was a lawyer that accompanied the Puritans from England in 1630 in search of religious freedom.  He was very active in setting the Puritan principles in New England.  He wrote "The Puritans and the Yankees and others."

Anne Bradstreet (1612 – 672) was one of the most prominent early American poets and famous for "The Tenth Muse."  She was a Puritan, who condemned materialism and exhorted man's salvific end.  

Jonathan Edwards (1703 – 1758) was the founder of the Great Awakening, through which he aroused the people of the colonies to focus on God as their creator and benefactor.

Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.

The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which is a frequent source of controversy in public debates, says that "a well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." The controversy stems from the fact that some Americans feel that the Second Amendment guarantees all citizens the absolute right to own firearms, while others believe that some restrictions on gun ownership are consistent with the Second Amendment.

Which of the following lists of words from this passage indicates the author's intention? ( 15 points)

Controversy, debates, believe
Amendment, Constitution, citizens
Frequent, public, necessary
Absolute, firearms, restrictions

HELP PLEASE

Answers

Answer:

understand and educate ourselves how important nature is to all living beings on Earth.

Explanation:

The benefits of preserving the nature is bigger than the costs of preserving nature. All we need to do is understand and educate ourselves how important nature is to all living beings on Earth. Preserving the nature would mean that there would be a healthy Earth for all generations to come in the future. There would be clean air, beautiful landscapes and cool breeze on Earth.

As predicted by researchers, Earth will not last for another hundred years if we keep on polluting and harming it. The time has come to take big measures and preserve the nature. Every individual is responsible in this task and all we need is a commitment to build an environmental friendly world.

Just as the story, if our children never knew what a tree smelled like or felt like, it would be a devastating thing to accept. The beauty and presence of nature sustains our life and gives us inner peace and happiness. It is more than just a natural oxygen producer. It is the essence of life on Earth.
