SECTION C – READING
Picture this: a herd of elephants flies past you at sixty miles per hour, followed by a streak of tigers, a pride of lions, and a bunch of clowns. What do you see? It must be a circus train! One of the first uses of the circus train is credited to W.C. Coup. He partnered with P.T. Barnum in 1871 to expand the reach of their newly combined shows using locomotives. That's another word for train.
You see, before trains, moving the circus was hard. They had to lug around all their animals, performers, and equipment with a team of more than 600 horses. Since there were no highways, these voyages were rough and took a long time. Circuses would stop at many small towns between the large venues. Performing at many of these small towns was not very profitable. Because of these limitations, circuses could not grow as large as the imaginations of the operators.
After they began using circus trains, Barnum and Coup only brought their show to large cities. These performances were much more profitable, and the profits went toward creating an even bigger and better circus. More stages or "rings" were added, and the show went on. Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey Circus relied on the train to transport their astounding show until they went defunct in 2017.

DEF Ltd is a global leader in the manufacture, integration and support of networking and telecommunications systems. The company sells broadband wireless products and a line of handset equipment to operators in emerging and established telecommunications markets worldwide. The auditor reported material weaknesses in the company’s internal controls to the audit committee. Significant deficiencies related to revenue and deferred revenue accounts and the associated cost of sales were noted. These material weaknesses were evidenced by the identification of six separate transactions aggregating approximately $5 million in which revenue was initially included in the Company’s financial statements before all criteria for revenue recognition were met. In addition, there were other transactions for which there was insufficient initial documentation for revenue recognition purposes, but which did not result in any adjustments to the Company’s financial statements. If unremediated, these significant deficiencies have the potential of misstating revenue in future financial periods. The Company’s planned remediation measures reported to the audit committee include the following: a. The Company plans to design a contract review process in China requiring financial and legal staff to provide input during the contract negotiation process to ensure timely identification and accurate accounting treatment of nonstandard contracts.
Which viewpoint does Banneker convey in “Benjamin Banneker Writes to Thomas Jefferson”?
Black and white Americans share similar perspectives on freedom and justice.
Enslavement and racial inequality are contradictory to basic American values.
The new American government should be overthrown for allowing enslavement.
Escape from British rule was made possible by contributions of Black Americans.
Banneker's view is that slavery and social inequality are contradictory to basic American values, as shown in the second answer option.
We can arrive at this answer because:
Banneker wrote to Thomas Jefferson to convince him to become an abolitionist.That's because Banneker believed that slavery was against basic American values that centered on the concept of freedom.For him, maintaining slavery made America a hypocritical and contradictory place and that damaged the country's reputation.However, he knew that politically influential people needed to join the abolitionist cause for it to be heard and so he tried to convince Jefferson to become an abolitionist.

how is the brightness produced
Answer:
(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)
Explanation:
The amount of photons entering your eye determines the brightness. Oh, so each photon of a specific frequency has the same amount of energy, but photons of various wavelengths or frequencies have varying amounts of energy.
Brightness is a visual property that describes how a source seems to radiate or reflect light. In other words, brightness is the sensation evoked by a visual target's luminance. The perception is not proportional to brightness and is dependent on the context of the viewing environment (see White's illusion, for example).
