There were no attendants at home; they had absconded to make merry in honour of the time. I had told them that I should not return until the morning and had given them explicit orders not to stir from the house. These orders were sufficient, I well knew, to insure their immediate disappearance, one and all, as soon as my back was turned. The phrase “not to stir from the house” most likely refers to Montresor’s _____. 1. direction that no one be allowed in 2. command that they remain at home 3. instructions that the attendants go to carnival 4. expectation that the home be thoroughly cleaned

Answers

you hid my purse, where is it?


i don’t know if you meant passive as in like mean if so then there you go if not then sorry

you hide my purse, where is it? is the sentence in passive​ voice.

What is passive​ voice?

When a verb acts on the sentence's subject, it is said to be in the passive voice. For instance, the ball (the subject) receives the action of the verb in "The ball was thrown by the pitcher," and was thrown is in the passive form.

First, consider how the wording of an active statement and a passive sentence change while still expressing the same idea: Active: Kam checked my essay. Kam reviewed my paper in the passive voice. Look for the verb that helps by being. Searching for "be" verbs in your work can help you identify passive verbs.

For instance: The cat was pursuing the mouse in an active voice. The subject in this sentence is "the cat," while the verb is "was chasing."

Thus, you hide my purse, where is it?

In paragraph two of the article, Myers uses the popular phrase, "greening of
America," but puts quotation marks around it to indicate he's using it in a
new way. What does he mean by it?
What, according to Myers, seems to be the true relationship between
happiness and money? Would Myers say that the relationship is the same
for people living in abject poverty as for people living above the poverty
line? Are the short-term effects of having more money the same as the
long-term effects?

Answers

Answer:

The phrase Greening of America was popularised by Charles Reich when he authored a book by that title which drew loads of accolades as well as criticisms. It rested on several issues.  

The book spoke to the evolution of the American global perspective, using three paradigms which he termed Consciousness.

The first had to do with the self-sufficiency of rural life the next spoke to the New Deal, the second world war and life in the 1950s, whilst the third consciousness he branded "the counterculture’s embrace of personal happiness over material success."  

According to Reich the foundation of the third consciousness comprises of self-liberation from the preprogrammed absorption of society's values.

So when Meyer puts the phrase "Greening of America" in quotation marks Meyer is referring to America's growing sentiments/preference of money as an indication of a better life.  This according to him reflects a cultural   a shift toward greater materialism, money especially instead of self-liberation as already put forward by Reich.

the game he hunts. Describe Rainsford's attitude towards his prey. Does he feel bad
for the animals? How does he justify killing them?

Answers

Rainsford never really cared about how the prey felt. He believed that you were a hunter or hunted.

Explanation:

In "The Most Dangerous Game," we can describe Rainsford's attitude towards his prey in the following manner:

- The hunter Rainsford does not feel bad for the animals he kills at all. He believes that the world is divided in two classes, "the hunters and the huntees," and that he is lucky to be a hunter.

He is a famous hunter who is on his way to Brazil to hunt jaguars.At the beginning of the story, as he talks to a friend, Rainsford reveals his attitude towards the animals he kills.He does not empathize with the fear and the pain of his prey. He believes it is only natural that he should hunt them, because the world is made of "hunters and huntees."Ironically, Rainsford will end up being hunted by another man who has the same opinion as his.

Read the Greek myth "Midas" retold by Thomas Bulfinch and answer the question. [1] Bacchus, on a certain occasion, found his old schoolmaster and foster-father, Silenus, missing. The old man had been drinking, and in that state wandered away, and was found by some peasants, who carried him to their king, Midas. Midas recognized him, and treated him hospitably, entertaining him for ten days and nights with an unceasing round of jollity. [2] On the eleventh day he brought Silenus back, and restored him in safety to his pupil. Whereupon Bacchus offered Midas his choice of a reward, whatever he might wish. He asked that whatever he might touch should be changed into gold. Bacchus consented, though sorry that he had not made a better choice. [3] Midas went his way, rejoicing in his new-acquired power, which he hastened to put to the test. He could scarce believe his eyes when he found a twig of an oak, which he plucked from the branch, become gold in his hand. He took up a stone; it changed to gold. He touched a sod; it did the same. He took up an apple from the tree; you would have thought he had robbed the garden of the Hesperides. His joy knew no bounds, and as soon as he got home, he ordered the servants to set a splendid repast on the table. Then he found to his dismay that whether he touched bread, it hardened in his hand; or put a morsel to his lip, it defied his teeth. He took a glass of wine, but it flowed down his throat like melted gold. [4] In consternation at the unprecedented affliction, he strove to divest himself of his power; he hated the gift he had lately coveted. But all in vain; starvation seemed to await him. He raised his arms, all shining with gold, in prayer to Bacchus, begging to be delivered from his glittering destruction. Bacchus, merciful deity, heard and consented. "Go," said he, "to River Pactolus, trace its fountain-head, there plunge yourself and body in, and wash away your fault and its punishment." He did so, and scarce had he touched the waters before the gold-creating power passed into them, and the river sands became changed into gold, as they remain to this day. Select a possible theme of the myth. Gold is a symbol of wealth and authority. Greed can result in negative consequences. People who expect a reward for good deeds are selfish. Money does not bring as much happiness as friendship.

When Curtis transferred to our high school from some fancy private school, I was assigned the job of showing him around our building. First, I showed him our trophy case. Our school has done put together some quality teams and programs over the years, so our trophy case was pretty full. Curtis was not impressed. I've claimed that the trophy case was at least twice as big as ours and much more crowded. Next I showed him our swimming pool. Not every high school has a swimming pool, so we were proud of ours, but Curtis couldn't care less. "The swimming pool at my old school is bigger and more modern. This one looks kind of dirty," he said with disdain. I continued to guide Curtis around the school, showing him our cafeteria, gymnasium, and even our garden, but Curtis seemed disappointed with everything that he saw. He'd quickly compare it to his old school, which in his words was superior to ours in every way. The last thing I showed Curtis was the front door.

Which statement best compare Nora and Mrs. Linde’s traits?

Mrs Linde: Listen to me, Nora Dear. Haven’t you’ve been a little bit imprudent?

Nora: [sits up straight] is it imprudent to save your husband’s life?

Mrs. Linde: It seems to me imprudent, without his knowledge, to—

Nora: but it was absolutely necessary that he should not know! My goodness, can’t you understand that? It was necessary he should have no idea what a dangerous condition he was in. It was to me that the doctors came and said that his life was in danger, and that the only thing to save him was to live in the south. Do you suppose I didn’t try, first of all, to get what I wanted as if it were for myself? I told him how much I should love to travel abroad like other young wives; I tried tears in and treaties with him; I told him that he ought to remember the condition I was in, and that he ought to be kind and indulgent to me; I even hinted that he might raise alone. That nearly made him angry, Christine. He said I was thoughtless, and that it was his duty as my husband not to indulge me in my whims and caprices— as I believe he called them. Very well, I thought, you must be saved— and that was how I came to devise a way out of the difficulty—

Mrs. Linde: and did your husband ever get to know from your father that the money had not come from him?

Nora: no, never. Papa died just at that time. I had meant to let him into the secret and beg him never to reveal it. But he was so ill then—alas, there never was any need to tell him.

Mrs. Linde: and since then have you never told your secret to your husband?

Nora: good heavens, no! How could you think so? Imagine who has such strong opinions about these things! And besides, how painful and humiliating it would be for Torvald, with his manly independent, to know that he owed me anything! It would upset our mutual relations all together; our beautiful happy home will no longer be what it is now.


(A) Nora believes that lying with good intentions is fine, while Mrs. Linde believes that lying to one’s husband is wrong.

(B) Nora believes that it is never prudent for a wife to tell her husband what she does with money, while Mrs. Linde thinks that only small lies are acceptable.

(C) Mrs. Linde is a spendthrift, well Nora is frugal with the money she is giving a report back to her husband about every penny.
