opposite meaning?
We were surprised to see that Travis's once-lavish apartment was now
completely spartan. Gone were the endless posters, the year-round
Christmas lights, and the numerous couches and beanbag chairs lining
every wall. Now there was but one small table and a simple chair, and
the bare walls were lit by a single, low-wattage lightbulb.

Answer 1

The phrase from the passage helps define spartan because it has the  opposite meaning is; B. Gone were the endless posters, the year-round Christmas lights.

The context of a speech can help us to deduce the meaning of certain unfamiliar words. Spartan, from the context of the passage above, means simplicity.

However, the endless posters and year-round Christmas lights were items that did not represent Spartan life.

Thus, this phrase defines Spartan because it has the opposite meaning.

Think about the things you do on a regular basis. What values are reflected in your daily activities?

Answers

Answer:

I value saving the planet, health, nature, being able to care of myself and my loved ones, having security, independence, kindness, and serenity.

I reflect these values by living a frugal lifestyle, saving my money so that I can have enough to take care of myself and my family no matter what life throws our way.

I also do my best to leave a low (carbon) footprint on the world with my lifestyle. Frugal living goes hand-in-hand with this. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.

Eating a vegan diet reflects these values as well, as I feel it is the optimum diet for good health and is also easier on the planet and of course is kinder to the animals we share our world with. I am very much against big agra farming and especially CAFO farming for animal meat.

To this end I grow as many of our own vegetables as I can and I shop local as much as possible. This is better for our own health and the health of planet Earth.

I try to live a very simple life filled with family, and abundance of good, fresh food, and enough savings to feel comfortable and secure. And that is how I try to to align my values with my daily life.

how is the brightness produced​

Answers

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).

Scan the first three stanzas of Kipling’s poem. What language has McNeill borrowed from Kipling? How does he use irony as a literary device in this poem?

Answers

McNeill used the same persuasive language as Kipling, but he did so ironically, presenting sentences contrary to Kipling's and satirizing what he had presented.

We can arrive at this answer because:

McNeill wrote "The Poor Man's Burden" as a satire on "The White Man's Burden," written by Kipling.In Kipling's poem imperialism is shown as a sacrifice that white men must make so that they can bring civility and order to other people.In "The Poor Man's Burden" imperialism is presented as an excuse for white men to be abusive, usurping, and cruel.Both poems use pervasive language to convince readers of their position.

Furthermore, McNeill satirizes the defense of imperialism shown in Kipling's poem, writing contrary sentences that show the white man as someone to be pitied and irrelevant.

Explanation:

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.

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.
