"To celebrate our victory!" cried Squealer.
"What victory?" said Boxer. His knees were bleeding,
he had lost a shoe and split his hoof, and a dozen

"What victory, comrade? Have we not driven the enemy
off our soil the sacred soil of Animal Farm?"
"But they have destroyed the windmill. And we had
worked on it for two years!"
"What matter? We will build another windmill. We will
build six windmills if we feel like it. You do not
appreciate, comrade, the mighty thing that we have
done. The enemy was in occupation of this very ground

Is Kate tamed at the end of the taming of the shrew?(Shakespeare)
Answer:
Katherine Minola was never tamed in the play, but she was brainwashed and manipulated to act in a manner that was socially acceptable in the 16th century.
Explanation:
Answer:
In fact, in the last line of the play, Lucentio implies that Kate, in the end, allowed herself to be tamed: “'Tis a wonder, by your leave, she will be tamed so” (V. ii. 193). Perhaps Lucentio implies that Kate and Petruchio planned the wager, and that they worked as a team to dupe the others out of their money

CREON. [to ANTIGONE] And thou, then, bending to the ground thy head,
Confessest thou, or dost deny the deed?
ANTIG. I own I did it. I will not deny.
CREON. [to GUARD] Go thou thy way, where'er thy will may choose,
Freed from a weighty charge. [Exit GUARD.]
[To ANTIGONE] And now for thee,
Say in few words, not lengthening out thy speech,
Didst thou not know the edicts which forbade
The things thou ownest?
ANTIG. Right well I knew them all.
How could I not? Full clear and plain were they.
ANTIG. Yes, for it was not Zeus who gave them forth,
Nor Justice, dwelling with the Gods below,
Who traced these laws for all the sons of men;
Nor did I deem thy edicts strong enough,
Coming from mortal man, to set at naught
The unwritten laws of God that know not change.
They are not of to–day nor yesterday,
But live for ever, nor can man assign
When first they sprang to being. Not through fear
Of any man's resolve was I prepared
Before the Gods to bear the penalty
Of sinning against these. That I should die
I knew (how should I not?), though thy decree
Had never spoken. And, before my time
If I should die, I reckon this a gain;
For whoso lives, as I, in many woes,
How can it be but death shall bring him gain?
And so for me to bear this doom of thine
Has nothing painful. But, if I had left
My mother's son unburied on his death,
I should have given them pain. But as things are,
Pain I feel none. And should I seem to thee
To have done a foolish deed, 'tis simply this,—
I bear the charge of folly from a fool.
Chor. The maiden's stubborn will, of stubborn sire
The offspring shows itself. She knows not yet
To yield to evils.
CREON. Know, then, minds too stiff
Most often stumble, and the rigid steel
Baked in the furnace, made exceeding hard,
Thou seest most often split and broken lie;
And I have known the steeds of fiery mood
With a small curb subdued. It is not meet
That one who lives in bondage to his neighbours
Should boast too loudly. Wanton outrage then
She learnt when first these laws of mine she crossed,
But, having done it, this is yet again
A second outrage over it to boast,
And laugh at having done it. Surely, then,
She is the man, not I, if all unscathed
Such deeds of might are hers. But be she child
Of mine own sister, nearest kin of all
That Zeus o'erlooks within our palace court,
She and her sister shall not 'scape their doom
Most foul and shameful; for I charge her, too,
With having planned this deed of sepulture.
Go ye and call her. 'Twas but now within
I saw her raving, losing self–command.
And still the mind of those who in the dark
Plan deeds of evil is the first to fail,
And so convicts itself of secret guilt.
But most I hate when one found out in guilt
Will seek to glaze and brave it to the end.
Which lines from the excerpt of Antigone best demonstrate that Antigone's obstinacy could be attributed to her heredity?
A.Most foul and shameful; for I charge her, too,
With having planned this deed of sepulture.
B.The maiden's stubborn will, of stubborn sire
C.Right well I knew them all.
How could I not? Full clear and plain were they.
D.But most I hate when one found out in guilt
Will seek to glaze and brave it to the end.

How much do you think our genes affect our personality? Our science club is having a debate about whether or not genes play a bigger role than experiences in determining who we are. Genes play a bigger role than experiences in determining who we are. This is because shyness is a common characteristic based on genes and our genes can also affect us as adults.
The first reason why genes play a bigger role than experiences in determining who we are is that shyness is a common characteristic based on genes. According to Source 1, ¨Shyness has been studied perhaps more than any other personality trait. Kagan, who has monitored 500 children for more than 17 years at Harvard, can detect telltale signs of shyness in babies even before they're born. He's found that the hearts of shy children in the womb consistently beat faster than 140 times a minute, which is much faster than the heartbeats of other babies.¨ In other words, it is easily predicted that you are going to be a shy person when you are older because of your heart beating faster than normal in the womb. Also according to Source 1, “2- year-old Majorie was so painfully shy that she wouldn't talk to or look at a stranger. When Jerome Kagan, a Harvard professor who discovered that shyness has a strong genetic component, Marjorie showed every sign of inherited shyness, a condition in which the brain somehow sends out messages to avoid new experiences” Based on this shyness coming from our genes can very strongly affect how we act and interpret things especially depending on how severe it is.
Another reason why genes play a bigger role than experiences in determining who we are is that our genes can even affect us into adulthood. According to Source 2, “Sandra and Marisa Pena, 32-year-old identical twins, seem to be the same. They have the same thick dark hair, the same high cheekbones, the same habit of delicately rubbing the tip of the nose in conversation. They had the same type of thyroid cyst at the same age (18) in the same place (right side).” Based on this since they are twins they have mostly the same but slightly different genes that affected the way that they act and look which makes them seem the same. And also, “About 50 percent of the characteristics twins have in common are due to genes alone” To put it more simply, that is the reason why they act so much the same, they have about 50 percent of the same genes that make them practically identical.
In conclusion, genes play a more important role than experiences in determining who we are because shyness is a typical feature based on genes and our genes can also affect us in adulthood. But some people may argue that we can grow out of our genes or we can’t simply predict someone's personality. While I can admit that our personalities can change over time but at the same time, we still have a component that sticks with us somehow, according to Source 2“In recent years, we've come to believe that genes influence character and personality more than anything else does. It's not just about height and hair color--DNA seems to have its clutches on our very souls.” This means that we may experience somethings but our DNA still takes part in who we are. But also, indeed, we cannot 100% foretell someone's personality we can still make simple but true assumptions about how people may act based on how they act in the womb according to Source 1, “ Kagan can detect telltale signs of shyness in babies even before they're born. He's found that the hearts of shy children in the womb consistently beat faster than 140 times a minute, which is much faster than the heartbeats of other babies” This proves that genes can take a big part in how we act as people in the future even if they are small details.

Which is more important: freedom or security? Do you believe there is a way to have both freedom and
security when it comes to speech? Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer.
Answer:
National security is an essential factor of any functioning society, but freedom is just as important.After 9/11, security in America was taken to a new level with increased airport safety procedures, a stronger border control, and new security acts being passed.The government did need to take action, such as enforcing stricter airport regulations to better monitor who enters the country. However, they did not need to infringe on American freedoms that were fought so hard for during the Revolutionary War.The USA Patriot Act of 2001 increased the ability of law enforcement officials to search personal information such as telephone calls, e-mails and personal records. It also eased restrictions on foreign intelligence gathering within the United States.While some aspects of the act are necessary, others are not.The Fourth Amendment ensures "the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures." Listening in on phone calls and going through people's personal e-mails is unreasonable because it will not make America a safer place to live and it infringes on the freedoms the Fourth Amendment guarantees.U.S. intelligence analysts were ordered to continue monitoring phone calls, even when it was clear they posed no threat to America's safety."We identified phone numbers belonging to non-threatening groups, including the Red Cross," said Adrienne Kinne, a former Arab linguist who worked at a National Security Agency facility at Fort Gordon from 2001 to 2003. "We could have blocked their numbers, but we didn't, and we were told to listen to them just in case."American freedoms were being sacrificed to provide security, even when there was no real danger. The people whose phone calls were being monitored posed no threat to America. This was an invasion of their rights as American citizens.Freedom and security need to be balanced, but freedom should not be jeopardized in order to obtain security.In the beginning, America invested in freedom, not the security of what its citizens already knew. And while both are vital to the success of a nation, freedom is the more fundamental, more enduring, and, therefore, more important.Some may argue that, given the current threats to America, the security of the country and its people should take priority over freedoms, no matter the cost.While there are threats to be concerned about, taking away the liberty of the citizens for the sake of security is just giving in to what the terrorists ultimately want: the suppression of America and its people.These acts were supposed to secure the country and offer more protection in the tumultuous atmosphere of World War I. In reality, they not only failed but they tightened the grip that fear held on the nation. Beyond this, the acts dramatically infringed on First Amendment rights, the freedoms that are deeply ingrained in America.And while the freedom versus security debate is centuries old and circumstances have changed countless times, the dilemma is still the same. In a nation where freedom has had such a high value even before the country's birth, it is nearly impossible to place security before liberty.I consider security to be more important than freedom. For a small group of students in my school, the thoughts concerning this topic are so drastically different that it is our policy to refuse to discuss it with others when we know it will start an argument.Freedom and security do not necessarily refer to matters of national importance. They can be used in many situations. For example, when looking for a job, some people consider how secure they will be having a routine 9 to 5 job with little change in schedule. This ensures that their daily needs will be taken care of and they don't need to worry about those.Another extremely important thing having to do with security is a person's romantic relationships. Is it better to date exclusively and to have a steady boyfriend or girlfriend, or to be free to come and go as you please without having a steady relationship in your life? Personally, I'd like to think that because something like marriage exists, security is considered significantly more important to most individuals.
Some people may think that life is pointless if you aren't free to enjoy it. But I disagree. What's the point of being free if you have to live with the constant uncertainty and worry that's caused by a lack of security?

How does density affect the tendency of an object to float or sink in a liquid?
Answer:
The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in another substance. An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.
Explanation: hope i could help you out have a blessed night :)
Answer:
Explanation:
First you have to know the density of the liquid. The numbers range from 0.5 to about 2.
I the object you are putting into the liquid has a density greater than that of the liquid, then the object will sink (go below the surface of the liquid).
If the object has a density less than the liquid then the object will float.
If you take a chunk of solid iron, and put it water, there is no way that object is going to float (with one exception). Iron has a density of about 8. Water is 1. Water is the standard.
If you put balsa wood in water there is no way it will sink. It has a density much less than almost all liquids.
So you do you make iron ships float? The answer to that is that ships are not solid. The shell of the ship has a volume much greater than the thickness of the hull of the ship. The density would be calculated as 8 / huge volume -- say 1,000,000 cubic cm. (and that's not much of a volume.
The result is a density much less than 1. Iron ships really do float.
Read this passage from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll.
“You don't know how to manage looking-glass cakes,” the Unicorn remarked. “Hand it round first, and cut it afterwards.”
This sounded nonsense, but Alice very obediently got up, and carried the dish round, and the cake divided itself into three pieces as she did so. “Now cut it up,” said the Lion, as she returned to her place with the empty dish.
How does the author use this passage to develop Alice’s character?
by showing that Alice is no longer afraid of talking animal
by showing that Alice now accepts the strange ways of the looking-glass world
by showing that Alice now has no patience for nonsense
by showing that Alice is now selfish because she will not divide the cake
