Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Unmarried girls should devote themselves to painstakingly caring for their parents and demonstrating great respect for them.

Explanation:

Zhao Ban's poem "On Reverence for Parents" is an extensive expression of how unmarried women must take care of their parents. The poem 'lists' the ways unmarried girls must take care of their parents to be honorable to their ancestors.

In the poem, the speaker begins by saying "Girls not yet gone out from their homes" should take good care to be of servitude to their parents. She details how they must be of 'use' to their parents and help them navigate their lives. This, according to the speaker, is how "[they] can honor [their] ancestors."

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is C. French.

Explanation:

The English language has a multiplicity of origins that make this language one of the most varied in the world. Thus, it has an origin coming from the confluence between Saxon and Nordic languages, with clear influences from Latin and French.

Precisely, the connection between English and French comes from the Norman invasion of England, where the English upper classes themselves were replaced by Norman nobles, with which the use of this language was promoted from the ruling class itself, clearly influencing the language spoken by the English people. A clear example of the French influence on the English language is the word mountain, which comes from the French "montagne".

Read the excerpt from "Raymond's Run."

And sometimes after a rain he likes to step down off his tightrope right into the gutter and slosh around getting his shoes and cuffs wet. Then I get hit when I get home. Or sometimes if you don’t watch him he’ll dash across traffic to the island in the middle of Broadway and give the pigeons a fit. Then I have to go behind him apologizing to all the old people sitting around trying to get some sun and getting all upset with the pigeons fluttering around them, scattering their newspapers and upsetting the waxpaper lunches in their laps.

Prompt: How does the origin myth, the excerpt from Frankenstein, and Shaw's play deal with the power and importance of creation, the need or desire or obsession to create, as well as the results of this process, the thing that is created, and what it means or can mean to its creator, or to mankind at large? ​

Answers

Answer:

In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, characters must reckon with the conflict between personal glory and human connection. Through the story of an alienated monster and his ambitious creator, Shelley raises themes such as familial loss, the search for belonging, and the cost of ambition. Other characters serve to reinforce the importance of community.

The computer "mouse" was invented in the mid-1960s by Douglas Engelbart. Engelbart's original mouse
was housed in a wooden box that had three buttons on top and two wheels on its underside, but the
principle was the same as that of the modern mouse. Unfortunately for Engelbart's bank account, demand
for the mouse did not become widespread until the launch of the Apple Macintosh personal computer in
1984—by which time Engelbart's patent had expired.
Question
The passage suggests that Douglas Engelbart
O made relatively little money from his invention
O worked for Apple computers in the 1980s
was not granted the proper patent for his work
O called the mouse by a different name

Answers

Answer:

made relatively little money from his invention

Explanation:

The passage explains the invention of the computer device, mouse, by Douglas Engelbart.

We can learn from the text that the mouse was not instantly popular. Only around 20 years later it was started to be used globally with computers. By that time, Engelbart’s patent expired, meaning he did not earn any money from sales and usage of the mouse.

Because of this, as well as the line “unfortunately for Engelbart's bank account”, we can conclude that the passage tries to point out the fact that Douglas Englebart did not make much money from his invention, despite it being so widely popular today.

Complete a formal SPOTTTSS and TEAR for "Dulce et Decorum Est." Would appreciate if anyone knew what to do for this

Answers

Answer: Dulce et Decorum Est is by Wilfred Owen and is historical fiction. The title is significant as Dulce et Decorum Est (followed by pro patria mori) means that it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country. The title is ironic as the unlucky soul that dies to the gas attack does not die sweet or peacefully. It's just another day on the battlefields of World War I . As our speaker, another soldier on the battlefield, lets us know right away, however, "normal" isn't a word that has any meaning for the soldiers anymore. They're all mentally and physically ravaged by the exertions of battle.

And then it gets worse. Just as the men are heading home for the night, gas shells drop beside them. The soldiers scramble for their gas masks in a frantic attempt to save their own lives. Unfortunately, they don't all get to their masks in time. Our speaker watches as a member of his crew chokes and staggers in the toxic fumes, unable to save him from an excruciating certain death.

Now fast-forward. It's some time after the battle, but our speaker just can't get the sight of his dying comrade out of his head. The soldier's image is everywhere: in the speaker's thoughts, in his dreams, in his poetry. Worst of all, our speaker can't do anything to help the dying soldier.

Bitterly, the speaker finally addresses the people at home who rally around the youth of England, and urge them to fight for personal glory and national honor. He wonders how they can continue to call for war. If they could only witness the physical agony war creates – or even experience the emotional trauma that the speaker's going through now – the speaker thinks they might change their views. In the speaker's mind, there's noting glorious or honorable about death. Or, for that matter, war itself.

Answer:

The “ I Have A Dream” speech was told by the man named Martin Luther King Jr. He was a very important man in the time and he made a speech calling out the people that were racist and disrespectful. He told the speech to try to end the disrespect and inequality. People were rude and didn’t understand that black lives mattered and that they had the same thought, dreams, and beliefs. Martin Luther King Jr. wanted the best of his people and to help more with his speech he used quotes from another speech called the “Gettysburg Address”. He tried to show people that Abraham Lincolin, a white man, even wanted the best for black people. Black is just a color, a human… is so much more. We may be different, but we are strong as one. Because of using quotes from a speech that happened a while back he was able to put some history and more detail into his speech to get people to understand what he was getting at.

Answer:

Address is to Ignore

Explanation:

Contrast & link and address & ignore are both opposites.

The word "contrast" is related to the word "link", just as the word "address" is related to the word "ignore."

This can be seen because:

"contrast" and "link" have opposite meanings."contrast" this expresses the meaning of "to separate," "to differentiate." On the other hand, "link" expresses the meaning of "to join," "to relate," "to equalize.""address" and "ignore" also have opposite meanings."address" refers to "attracting attention" while "ignore" refers to the act of "denying attention."

In summary, we can conclude that these words are related in an opposite way to each other.

Unfortunately brainly doesn't have any questions related to this, so you can find more information, but you can analyze the meanings of these words and see the opposite logic between them that will be able to answer this question without problems.
