Read the passage from chapter 1 of Animal Farm.
"This single farm of ours would support a dozen horses,
twenty cows, hundreds of sheep-and all of them living in a
comfort and a dignity that are now almost beyond our
imagining. Why then do we continue in this miserable
condition? Because nearly the whole of the produce of our
labour is stolen from us by human beings. There,
comrades, is the answer to all our problems. It is summed
up in a single word-Man. Man is the only real enemy we
have. Remove Man from the scene, and the root cause of
hunger and overwork is abolished for ever."

Who is Nicholas II?Nicholas II, known in the Russian Orthodox Church as Saint Nicholas the Passion-Bearer, was the last Emperor of Russia, King of Congress Poland and Grand Duke of Finland, ruling from 1 November 1894 until his abdication on 15 March 1917.
During his reign, Nicholas ll gave support to the economic and political reforms promoted by his prime ministers, Sergei Witte and Pyotr Stolypin. He advocated modernization based on foreign loans and close ties with France but resisted giving the new parliament major roles. Ultimately, progress was undermined by Nicholas's commitment to autocratic rule, strong aristocratic opposition and defeats sustained by the Russian military in the Russo-Japanese War and World War I.
By March 1917, public support for Nicholas had collapsed and he was forced to abdicate the throne, thereby ending the Romanov dynasty's 304-year rule of Russia.

Identify each highlighted example from Helen Keller's memoir as a simile or a metaphor_
"I felt as if invisible hands were holding me, and I made frantic efforts to free myself."
"My mother's only ray of hope came from Dickens's 'American Notes."
Answer:
The first sentence contains a simile while the second sentence has a metaphor.
Explanation:
Simile and metaphor are figures of speech that compare different things to each other with the purpose of vividly describing a similar characteristic between them. The difference between both figures of speech is that the simile makes the comparison by using words such as "like" or "as". The metaphor, on the other hand, does not use such words. Study the examples below to better visualize the difference:
Simile: Your eyes are like stars.
Metaphor: Your eyes are stars.
In both of the sentences above, someone's eyes are being compared to stars, which probably means they are big and bright. However, the first sentence relies on the word "like" to establish the comparison, therefore constituting a simile. The second sentence does not, forming a metaphor.
Having that in mind:
"I felt as if invisible hands were holding me, and I made frantic efforts to free myself." - We have a simile here. The speaker uses "as if" to compare her feeling to hands holding her. She probably had a feeling of being restrained.
"My mother's only ray of hope came from Dickens's 'American Notes." - No one literally has a ray of hope. There is no such thing in the natural world. However, a ray is something the shines, that makes a dark place brighter. We can attribute such idea to the feeling of hope - it makes dark and difficult situations look brighter, better. Since there are no words such as "like" or "as", what we have here is a metaphor.
Answer:
Similes include "like" and/or "as". While a metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. So in this case the first one would be "simile" and the second would be "as".

Guys I have this question is the media bias about Greta Thunberg betraying her mother BC of climate change
Answer:
Explanation:
"The haters are as active as ever", the 16-year-old Swedish climate activist posted on social media on Thursday, "going after me, my looks, my clothes, my behaviour and my differences". Anything, she says, rather than talk about the climate crisis.
It hasn't stopped her from campaigning. On Friday, she led another of her climate strikes, heading up a huge demonstration in Montreal, demanding international aviation does more to cut its carbon footprint.
But she is clearly very annoyed, accusing critics of "crossing every line to avert the focus" with, what she calls, lies and conspiracy theories.
Of course, the attention isn't surprising. Over the past year, Greta Thunberg has arguably done more to galvanise global action on climate than any other single individual.
And there is no question the unnerving power of her rhetoric comes in part from the fact that she is so young.
Thunberg to leaders: 'You've failed us on climate'
UN panel signals red alert on 'Blue Planet'
Climate change 'accelerating', say scientists
Content is not available
A key reason her "How dare you!" message hit home so hard in the UN this week was because she seemed so jarringly out of place in the air-conditioned formality of the UN's New York HQ.
It is unusual for young people to hold the adult world to account so forcefully and so publicly and some people clearly don't like it.
She certainly did that on Monday when she accused world leaders of "stealing my dreams and my childhood", and warned them that "the eyes of all future generations are upon you. And, if you choose to fail us, I say: 'We will never forgive you'".
So, how about her mental health? And, while we're about it, does anyone have the right to comment on it? What's so impressive about Thunberg is how clear-headed she is on the urgent need for action in the light of the science.
Understandably, Thunberg particularly resents her mental capacity being called into question. "Being different is not an illness and the current, best available science is not opinions - it's facts", she said this week.
She acknowledges that she was very unhappy in the past, but says that championing the climate issue has helped lift her out of despair.
"It makes me feel good that I'm not alone in this fight," she told me, "and it feels like my life has some kind of meaning lately and I feel that what I am doing is meaningful."
She's famously described her Asperger's as a "superpower", allowing her to cut through the noise and see to the heart of the issue.
Media caption"You are failing us" - Greta tells world leaders
Dr James Cusack, director of science at the autism charity, Autistica, says she's been a really important role model for others with the condition. "Her brave, clear-minded and science-led approach to activism is inspiring for many people," he says.
And, while Thunberg is sometimes emotional about her cause she says that's because she's appalled and frustrated that the world isn't doing enough to tackle climate change.
She has the full support of her family. Her father, Svante Thunberg, is travelling in America with her - and shared the privations on her transatlantic voyage. Her mother and younger sister, Beata, stayed in Sweden.
She's no plans to stop campaigning any time soon.
These coming months are crucial, she told me, if the world is going to manage to keep the global temperature increase below 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels. Emissions have to start reducing before the end of next year, she warns, or we are likely to pass tipping points leading to uncontrolled climate change.
Yet, last year global carbon emissions increased by 2.7%, hitting a record high of 37.1bn tonnes.
Thunberg was upset by the response of the world leaders in the UN HQ this week. They politely applauded her speech but had no new initiatives that would significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and most also failed to acknowledge either her message or the fact that millions of people had taken to the streets to demand action just days before.
So, climate action remains very much a work in progress for Thunberg, despite her critics.
"I guess they must feel threatened by us," she wrote this week. "But the world is waking up."

Which summary correctly describes the second half of Antigone?
1. Haemon and Creon get into an argument and have a huge falling out. Haemon decides to leave Thebes, along with his mother, Queen
Eurydice. Antigone tries to convince her fiancé, Haemon, to forgive his father by telling him that family is the most important thing. Haemon
follows Antigone's advice and reconciles with his father. Creon is touched and humbled by Antigone's graciousness and forgives her for
defying his order and burying Polyneices. The play ends with Antigone and Haemon happily married and ready to become the new king and
queen of Thebes.
2. Haemon tries to convince his father to think about his citizens and what they want and to realize his arrogance and folly. However, Creon
dismisses him and decrees that instead of sentencing Antigone to death, he will entomb her. Antigone puts up a brave face before being
entombed. The prophet Teiresias warns Creon of his folly, only to be rebuked. Later, when Creon goes to free Antigone, he finds out that she
has killed herself, and he witnesses Haemon stabbing himself. This news reaches Queen Eurydice, who also stabs herself in a fit of grief.
Creon returns to the palace childless and wifeless, finally realizes his hubris, and repents.
3. Haemon informs Creon that if Antigone has to die because of his unjust law, he will die with her. This announcement distresses Creon, but
he feels that Haemon is merely threatening him. He's shocked to find Haemon dead in his chambers the next morning. Haemon's death
greatly grieves Queen Eurydice, who soon after stabs herself in the heart. Creon is in deep anguish and realizes how blind he was. To honor
his wife and son's memory, he forgives Antigone. The play ends with Antigone becoming the first female ruler of Thebes. She looks after
Creon like she would have looked after her own father.
4. Haemon lends his father, Creon, his full support after Creon decides to sentence Haemon's fiancée, Antigone, to death. Ismene comes to
Haemon to beg for her sister's life, but Haemon dismisses her. Ismene decides that the only way to save her sister's life is for Haemon and
Antigone to elope. But Antigone refuses to be a coward and run away. She bravely faces the consequences of her actions. The Theban
citizens lament her terrible fate. Isméne cannot bear the thought of living without her sister, who is her last surviving family member, and
poisons herself. The play ends with both the sisters dead and Oedipus' bloodline entirely destroyed.
Answer:
the answer is passage 2 Haemon tries to convince his father to think about his citizens and what they want and to realize his arrogance and folly. However, Creon
dismisses him and decrees that instead of sentencing Antigone to death, he will entomb her. Antigone puts up a brave face before being
entombed. The prophet Teiresias warns Creon of his folly, only to be rebuked. Later, when Creon goes to free Antigone, he finds out that she
has killed herself, and he witnesses Haemon stabbing himself. This news reaches Queen Eurydice, who also stabs herself in a fit of grief.
Creon returns to the palace childless and wifeless, finally realizes his hubris, and repents.

for the growth of civilization and humanism as described in the lesson
"Nelson Mandela: Long walk to freedom"
Answer: The answer is given below
Explanation:
Freedom is just as important as the air we breath daily. With freedom, one can create and achieve anything while lack of freedom leads to struggle. A man without freedom will not be happy because freedom is life and without it, living becomes hell.
Life without freedom is no life at all and man continually finde w way of attaining freedom about man attaining freedom whether social, political or financial freedom. Nelson Mandela had to fight the war against racial discrimination. While growing up, he had to face a lot of discrimination. His struggle eventually bore fruit and he created history as he was elected as South African president.
Man's quests for freedom is a daily challenge. Challenges such as pollution, diseases, advancement of science and technology are mountains which man seeks freedom for and wants to conquer. He must work harder in order to be free and he's always finding solutions to overcome these challenges as this is when he can truly say that he has attained freedom.

Claire is on a business trip. She'll be traveling from Liverpool, England, to Melbourne, Australia. The latitude value of Liverpool is 53.41 degrees, and the longitude value is -2.99 degrees. The latitude value of Melbourne is -37.81 degrees, and the longitude value is 144.96 degrees. The two cities are degrees apart in latitude. The two cities are degrees apart in longitude.
Answer:
the difference in latitude is 91.22°
the difference in longitude is 147.95°
Explanation:
For Liverpool, London. The latitude is 53.41°, longitude is -2.99°
For Melbourne, Australia. The latitude is -37.81°, longitude is 144.96°
The negative or positive magnitude of their values shows their position on either sides of the origin of the latitude (equator) and the origin of the longitude (prime meridian).
The latitude measures the relative position of a point, north or south of the equator (latitude 0°). The longitude measures the relative position, east or west of the prime meridian (longitude 0°)
the difference in latitude is 53.41° - (-37.81°) = 53.41° + 37.81° = 91.22°
the difference in longitude = 144.96° - (-2.99°) = 144.96 + 2.99 = 147.95°
Answer:
The change in latitude, Δφ, from Liverpool to Melbourne is 91.22° south
The change in longitude, Δλ, from Liverpool to Melbourne is 147.95° East
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters given are;
The latitude of Liverpool is 53.41°
The longitude of Liverpool is -2.99°
The latitude of Melbourne is -37.81°
The longitude of Melbourne is 144.96°
The change in latitude from Liverpool to Melbourne = Δφ
Δφ = 53.41° - (-37.81°) = 53.41° + 37.81° = 91.22°
The change in latitude, Δφ, from Liverpool to Melbourne = 91.22° south
The change in longitude from Liverpool to Melbourne = Δλ
Δλ = -2.99° - 144.96° = -147.95°
Therefore the change in longitude from Liverpool to Melbourne = 147.95° East.

Answer: Yes
Courage:
Courage, in the sense of acting in a way that responds to risk appropriately, not over-confidently or in a cowardly way, will also help us to accomplish 'good' things. Courage also helps us to act against those who threaten, or who act in a bad way.
Brain:
Helping others triggers impacts to our brain in many positive ways. When we help others, our brains release oxytocin, serotonin and dopamine. These hormones have the effect of boosting our mood and counteract the effect of cortisol (the stress hormone)
