Which of these inferences is best supported by the following paragraph? “If then we prefer to meet danger with a light heart but without laborious training, and with a courage which is gained by habit and not enforced by law, are we not greatly the better for it? Since we do not anticipate the pain, although, when the hour comes, we can be as brave as those who never allow themselves to rest; thus our city is equally admirable in peace and in war. For we are lovers of the beautiful in our tastes and our strength lies, in our opinion, not in deliberation and discussion, but that knowledge which is gained by discussion preparatory to action. For we have a peculiar power of thinking before we act, and of acting, too, whereas other men are courageous from ignorance but hesitate upon reflection. And they are surely to be esteemed the bravest spirits who, having the clearest sense both of the pains and pleasures of life, do not on that account shrink from danger. In doing good, again, we are unlike others; we make our friends by conferring, not by receiving favors. Now he who confers a favor is the firmer friend, because he would rather by kindness keep alive the memory of an obligation; but the recipient is colder in his feelings, because he knows that in requiting another’s generosity he will not be winning gratitude but only paying a debt. We alone do good to our neighbors not upon a calculation of interest, but in the confidence of freedom and in a frank and fearless spirit. To sum up: I say that Athens is the school of Hellas, and that the individual Athenian in his own person seems to have the power of adapting himself to the most varied forms of action with the utmost versatility and grace. This is no passing and idle word, but truth and fact; and the assertion is verified by the position to which these qualities have raised the state. For in the hour of trial Athens alone among her contemporaries is superior to the report of her. No enemy who comes against her is indignant at the reverses which he sustains at the hands of such a city; no subject complains that his masters are unworthy of him. And we shall assuredly not be without witnesses; there are mighty monuments of our power which will make us the wonder of this and of succeeding ages; we shall not need the praises of Homer or of any other panegyrist whose poetry may please for the moment, although his representation of the facts will not bear the light of day. For we have compelled every land and every sea to open a path for our valor, and have everywhere planted eternal memorials of our friendship and of our enmity. Such is the city for whose sake these men nobly fought and died; they could not bear the thought that she might be taken from them; and every one of us who survive should gladly toil on her behalf.” Question 5 options: a) Grief has deranged Pericles beyond reason. b) Pericles fears that the dead have been sacrificed in vain. c) Pericles believes that Athenians play too hard and work too little. d) Pericles thinks Athens is powerful because of its intellectual freedom and motivation.

Answer:

The answer is

Explanation:

It is better to live in a village than a city because in a village you can do various activities like milking the cow, playing in the open ground, playing cricket and various activities too like making mango,lemon, garlic,lemon dates picle etc.

But in a city you can't practically do anything except go to shopping malls, eating food outside etc. But after sometime, it becomes boring. In a city you do not receive fresh air like you receive in the village and has a lot of pollution like noise pollution which causes nausea, sleeplessness,headache etc.

Read the following group discussion about Lord of the Flies by William Golding, in which a group of children are stranded on a desert island.MARIA:So, in his article Kinski says that the message in Lord of the Flies is that civilization is precious and can easily slip away.EDGAR:I think that Golding's message is that civilization itself is kind of a myth, given that the story seems to take place in the middle of a war of some kind; the adults fighting the war aren't any better than the children killing each on the island. In other words, civilization can't "slip away" if it was never there to begin with. VICTOR:Kinski does tend to make a big distinction between "civilized" people and "uncivilized" people, like it's something that can be turned on and off like a light switch. That explains his attitude. RIKU:What I got out of Lord of the Flies is that civilization is a house of cards, built slowly over time, that can come crashing down at a moment's notice. Kinski didn't really seem to contradict that idea. MARIA:It sounds like you two have pretty different ideas about what Kinski was saying.

Esperanza finds it strange that the very people who she thinks should be nice to her, are not. B. The author wishes her name was Alexis or Maritza. C. Esperanza likens her sister's laughter to the sound of a pile of dishes breaking. D. The author and Rachel joke about the fat lady in the street.

Answers

The correct answer is C. Esperanza likens her sister's laughter to the sound of a pile of dishes breaking.

Explanation:

Simile is a common figure of speech, which allows authors to explain an idea by using comparison. This occurs if the speaker compares two objects, people, ideas, etc. by using words such as "like" or "as". In this context, the one that is an example of a simile in The House on Mango Street is "Esperanza likens her sister's laughter to the sound of a pile of dishes breaking" because if Esperanza says her sister's laughter is like/as the sound of a pile of dishes breaking, the author is using comparison to better explain an idea, which is the sound of a laugh. Moreover, the word likens suggest an explicit word for comparison was used.

3. Recycling has become easier with many public places including recycling bins right next to all garbage cans.
4. Plastic that hasn’t been recycled has extremely harmful effects to the wildlife that live in the ocean.

Answers

Answer:

1. Litter is not only ugly, but also harmful to animals in national parks

Explanation:

When writing an essay in support of a point, you have to select salient points that are consistent and relatable to what you're writing about..

Younique is writing an essay in support of recycling to reduce garbage in the ocean and therefore she has to bring points that relates to side effects of throwing garbage in the ocean, how easy it is to recycle garbage and other necessary points.

The truly odd one out is option A which says "Litter is not only ugly, but also harmful to animals in national parks".

This has no direct connection to effect of garbage in the ocean or recycling so this is the piece of evidence with the least relevance to her argument.

Select the correct answer. My mom is always repeating the same old joke: if your friends all jumped off a cliff, would you jump, too? Of course not. But I get what she means. She's talking about peer pressure. Teenagers like us live with it every day. Pretty much every kid wants to be liked, to have friends, to be popular. No one wants people to think they aren't cool. While peer pressure is tough, giving in to it and getting in trouble is tougher. But teenagers are still learning to make good decisions. Like this one time my friend Harold wanted to take his dad's prized Jeep Grand Cherokee for a drive. Harold was 13, and he'd never driven a car before. But he figured he knew enough about operating a motor vehicle just by watching his parents drive. When his parents were out of town one weekend, Harold invited me and some of our friends over to his house so he could take us for a drive. I said, "Not me," because I knew it was a stupid thing to do. I told him and everybody else what I thought of the idea. (Driving isn't easy. It took my big brother weeks to get the hang of it.) Harold got mad and told me I was being a chicken. I said, "I'd rather be a chicken than get in an accident and have a broken leg." What is the topic of this passage? A.

Read the excerpt from The Code Book. A theoretical breakthrough would be a fundamentally new way of finding Alice's private key. Alice's private key consists of p and q, and these are found by factoring the public key, N. The standard approach is to check each prime number one at a time to see if it divides into N, but we know that this takes an unreasonable amount of time. Which statement is best supported by this excerpt

Answers

Answer:

The author writes with great scientific detail.

Explanation:

Simon Singh's "The Code Book" presents a detailed account of the history of cryptography through the tracing of its evolution and how secrecy came to be. The idea of a secret code for messages is what intrigues everyone and thus, this book delves into the how of such coded messages.

As seen in the given excerpt, the author Simon Singh states how scientific details such as "p and q" and the factoring of "the public key, N" are all processes to learn about Alice's private key. The inclusion of details such as "check[ing] each prime number one at a time to see if it divides into N" are all scientific approaches that will lead to the understanding of the private key.

Thus, the correct answer is the last or fourth option.
