expand the proverb "strike while the iron is hot".​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Strike while the iron is hot. If you wait, you miss the opportunity to make a difference. If the issue is burning, it has people's attention. Speak up and be heard when they are likely to respond.

Explanation: The expression comes from blacksmithing. The blacksmith heats a bar of iron in the forge until it is red hot. Then the smith places the iron on the anvil and strikes it with a mallet to shape it. The red hot metal is soft enough to bend or flatten, Once the iron is cold, it is very difficult to bend or shape. The smith must reheat it if there is more work to be done.

How does technology greatly impact the way we learn?

Answers

Answer:

Technology impacts the way we learn by pulling us farther away from working on our own and instead of using our social skills and our knowlage to better understand a question we look it up and it doesnt teach us anything it just weakenes our social skills and our learning skills and we dont learn anything from it and if we get into the habit of doing that we will get nowhere and generations after us will do the same and end up the same and soon enough there will be no reason to have teachers.

1 Select the correct text in the passage. Which lines in this excerpt from Guy de Maupassant's short story "Boule de Suif" suggest that the resistance activities of the civilians were more courageous than those of the armed soldiers?

Answers

Which lines in this excerpt from Guy de Maupassant's short story "Boule de Suif" suggest that the resistance activities of the civilians were more courageous than those of the armed soldiers?

Even the town itself resumed by degrees its ordinary aspect. The French seldom walked abroad, but the streets swarmed with Prussian soldiers. Moreover, the officers of the Blue Hussars, who arrogantly dragged their instruments of death along the pavements, seemed to hold the simple townsmen in but little more contempt than did the French cavalry officers who had drunk at the same cafes the year before. . . .

<1"The conquerors exacted money, much money."> The inhabitants paid what was asked; they were rich. But, the wealthier a Norman tradesman becomes, the more he suffers at having to part with anything that belongs to him, at having to see any portion of his substance pass into the hands of another.

<2"Nevertheless, within six or seven miles of the town, along the course of the river as it flows onward to Croisset, Dieppedalle and Biessart, boat-men and fishermen often hauled to the surface of the water the body of a German, bloated in his uniform, killed by a blow from knife or club, his head crushed by a stone, or perchance pushed from some bridge into the stream below.">

<3"The mud of the river-bed swallowed up these obscure acts of vengeance—savage, yet legitimate; these unrecorded deeds of bravery; these silent attacks fraught with greater danger than battles fought in broad day, and surrounded, moreover, with no halo of romance."> For hatred of the foreigner ever arms a few intrepid souls, ready to die for an idea.

Answer:

"The mud of the river-bed swallowed up these obscure acts of vengeance—savage, yet legitimate; these unrecorded deeds of bravery; these silent attacks fraught with greater danger than battles fought in broad day, and surrounded, moreover, with no halo of romance."

Explanation:

The lines from the excerpt that suggests resistance from the civilians which were more courageous than those of the armed soldiers are the lines in option C.

From the excerpt, the soldiers were moving about , carrying their weapons on the street which made the civilians displeased, and finally in the third option, the soldiers were attacked violently by the civilians to show their displeasure against the current system.  

Their bravery and way of attack were dangerous and showed that they were ready to die for their idea and they would do anything to become free.

Answer:

The mud of the river-bed swallowed up these obscure acts of vengeance—savage, yet legitimate; these unrecorded deeds of bravery; these silent attacks fraught with greater danger than battles fought in broad day, and surrounded, moreover, with no halo of romance.

Answers

Explanation:  In Birmingham, Alabama, in the spring of 1963, King’s campaign to end segregation at lunch counters and in hiring practices drew nationwide attention when police turned dogs and fire hoses on the demonstrators. King was jailed along with large numbers of his supporters, including hundreds of schoolchildren. His supporters did not, however, include all the Black clergy of Birmingham, and he was strongly opposed by some of the white clergy who had issued a statement urging African Americans not to support the demonstrations. From the Birmingham jail, King wrote a letter of great eloquence in which he spelled out his philosophy of nonviolence:Near the end of the Birmingham campaign, in an effort to draw together the multiple forces for peaceful change and to dramatize to the country and to the world the importance of solving the U.S. racial problem, King joined other civil rights leaders in organizing the historic March on Washington. On August 28, 1963, an interracial assembly of more than 200,000 gathered peaceably in the shadow of the Lincoln Memorial to demand equal justice for all citizens under the law. Here the crowds were uplifted by the emotional strength and prophetic quality of King’s famous “I Have a Dream” speech, in which he emphasized his faith that all men, someday, would be brothers.

Which use of symbolism in the story most suggests that the narrator feels stressed in the passage

Answers

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"It is impossible to say how the idea first entered my head. There was no reason for what I did. I did not hate the old man; I even loved him. He had never hurt me. I did not want his money. I think it was his eye. His eye was like the eye of a vulture, the eye of one of those terrible birds that watch and wait while an animal dies, and then fall upon the dead body and pull it to pieces to eat it. When the old man looked at me with his vulture eye a cold feeling went up and down my back; even my blood became cold. And so, I finally decided I had to kill the old man and close that eye forever!”

The Tell-Tale Heart, by Edgar Allan Poe.

Which use of symbolism in the story most suggests that the narrator feels stressed in this passage?

A. The exclamation points  B. The repetition of the word "eye"  C. The lack of dialogue D. The mention of gold

Answer:

B. The repetition of the word "eye"

Explanation:

The repetition of the word "eye" in this passage shows how disturbed and nervous the character is to the point that he only thinks about it. He does not use the word "eye" to justify the reason for his nervousness and to show that it was because of this nervousness, this tension and this imbalance that the eye caused, that he committed all the crime he did.

In other words, the repetition of the word "eye" in this excerpt refers to the manic state and the character's fixation is the source of all the nervousness he expresses.

When you encounter a T-critical value of 2.50, which T-obtained value would reject the null hypothesis? A) Tobt = 2.75 B) Tobt = -2.75 C) Tobt = 2.40 D) Tobt = - 2.40

Answers

Answer: A) Tobt = 2.75 B) Tobt = -2.75

Explanation:

We reject the null hypothesis when the absolute critical t-value is lower than the absolute t-obtained value.

The given t-critical value [tex]T_{crit}=2.50[/tex]

So , we reject null hypothesis , when [tex]2.50< | T_{obt}|[/tex]

Since, [tex]2.50<|2.75|,\ \ 2.50<|-2.75|[/tex]  but [tex]2.50>|2.40|\ \ \ , 2.50>|-2.40|[/tex]

So, the correct options are A) Tobt = 2.75 B) Tobt = -2.75

We traveled in our own car to the city of New Orleans, Louisiana, in early April.

Answers

Answer:

A. We drove to New Orleans in early April.

Explanation:

The context of "in our own car" and "in the state of Louisiana" isn't necessary for the readers. It just becomes excessive words that hinder the reader from a smooth read.

Answer:

A. We drove to New Orleans in early April.

Explanation:

Because New Orleans is such a big city, it isn't necessary to say it is in Louisiana since that will make the sentence more complicated/long.

It is also better to say "early April" rather than longer and more repetitive phrases like "the early part of April."

Lastly, it is best to say "we drove" instead of saying "we traveled in our own car" because they mean the same thing, but "we drove" flows better and is shorter.

So, A is correct because it has the best flow with the most simple phrases.

Answers

The correct answer is B. She dropped out of school on account of the reality that it was crucial for her to help sustain her family.

Explanation:

In sentences, using words or phrases that are not necessary for the meaning of the sentence should be avoided as this makes sentences to be confusing or unclear. Also, these sentences can be identified because certain phrases or words can be omitted without changing the meaning.

Useless words or phrases occur in "She dropped out of school on account of the reality that it was crucial for her to help sustain her family" because the section "on account of the reality that it was crucial" contains many useless words that make the sentence confusing. Instead, it can be summarized with "because it was crucial" or simply omitted as "She dropped out of school to help sustain her family".
