What is the main idea of the text?

A
Fables and parables are the oldest and most popular types of allegories.
B
Allegories remain relevant today because they lead to understanding and change.
C
Society struggles with complicated ideas, so allegories are necessary in a school's curriculum.
D
Plato invented the genre of allegory, but modern philosophers do not agree with his theories.

Answers

Answer 1

The main idea of the text is that allegories remain relevant today because they lead to understanding and change, as shown in option B.

We can arrive at this answer because:

The text shows how allegories can transform complex and difficult to understand concepts into simple and easily understood stories, through symbols and comparisons.This power to simplify concepts is what makes allegory so used in texts, music, and movies, as it can show people situations they do not understand, but which need to be changed to promote general well-being.

This makes allegory so relevant and can be a very efficient activist element in society.

Answers

Hey there!

The correct answer is

“It is hard for Roosevelt to pay for all of its activities”

Basically the author was disappointed when he found out that President Roosevelt was cutting back on the “extracurricular” activities he was assigned to do. You could see that statement in paragraph 1.

Which statement from "The Lakota Music Project Hopes to Connect People through Music" most likely describes the author’s position towards the Lakota Music Project?.

Answers

The statement from "The Lakota Music Project Hopes to Connect People through Music" that most likely describes the author's position towards the Lakota Music Project is:

D. "The Lakota Music Project's focus remains on building bridges through music."

Statements B and C about the Lakota Music Project do not convey opinions (positions). They are about facts concerning the Indianist movement and the project: when the movement flourished, and when themes for the concerts of the project were established.Statement A does convey an opinion, but it is not the author's. As a matter of fact, the author makes it very clear that what is being said is "[f]rom the Lakota point of view."With that in mind, the only option we can choose is letter D. This statement is likely expressing the author's view and position towards the project.

The answer choices for this question are the following:

A. "From the Lakota point of view, however, the 'Indianist' movement represents cultural appropriation, or inappropriate adoption of customs."

B. "It flourished in the early 20th century as American composers based works on Native American themes."

What is context clues?

Readers can utilize context cues to help them figure out the meanings of unfamiliar or difficult-to-decipher words that they come across in a sentence, paragraph, or passage.

According to numerous academics, context cues can be used to infer and determine the meaning of new or unfamiliar words in context. Examples of the four categories of context cues provided by Nist and Mohr include examples, synonyms, antonyms, and the general sense of a statement.

The reader can determine a word's true meaning in a sentence by using contextual signals. Take a look at this example: The doctor was really concerned about the man's obesity or excessive fat. In this sentence, the word "obesity" actually means "too much fat."

Thus,  option A is correct.

Who vows to kill Hamlet after his sister and father are killed

a) Laertes

b) The King

c) Ophelia

d) Rosencrantz

Answers

Answer:

laertes

Explanation:

took the quiz and got it correct

Laertes vows to kill Hamlet after his sister and father are killed. The correct option is a.

Who is Laertes in the play Hamlet?

Laertes is a character in William Shakespeare's c. 1600 play Hamlet. Laertes is the son of Polonius and the brother of Ophelia. In the final scene, he mortally stabs Hamlet with a poison-tipped sword to avenge the deaths of his father and sister, for which he blamed Hamlet. While dying of the same poison, he implicates King Claudius.

The Laertes character is thought to be originated by Shakespeare, as there is no equivalent character in any of the known sources for the play. His name is taken from Laertes, father of Odysseus in Homer's Odyssey. In the first act, Laertes is warning Ophelia against Hamlet's romantic pursuit of her, saying Hamlet will soon lose his desire for her, and that it is not Hamlet's own choice but the king's as to whom he will marry. Before Laertes returns to France from Denmark, returning to Denmark only to attend the coronation of King Claudius, his father, Polonius, gives him advice to behave himself in France.

During Laertes's absence, Hamlet kills Polonius in Gertrude's parlour. Laertes, informed of his father's death, returns to Denmark, and leads a mob to storm and take the castle. Laertes confronts the King, thinking he was responsible for Polonius's death.

Further, the King explains to him who the real killer was, and incites Laertes to kill Hamlet and avenge Polonius's death.

Do you think teenagers today have fewer responsibilities
than teenagers in the past? And why?

Answers

Answer:

No.

Until the start of compulsory education in about the 1930s, teenagers would have been working alongside their elders. They’d have been down mines, in steelworks, in factories, etc.

If you were a teenager in the 1940s or 1910s, you’d be dying for your country

After the 2nd World War, teenage years started becoming more free. There was a bit of rebellion in the 50s and 60s, but after that things have pretty much settled down for the most. From my experience (and my friends’) of the 70s and 80s, and comparing it to those of my teenage children and their friends now, I’d say that the level of responsibilities is pretty much the same now as then on average. There may obviously be individual variations.

That’s not to say that everything is the same: teenagers now (in general) seem to have less respect for authority than we did. Teenagers now sometimes choose to be pressured by social media, whereas in my day, such a thing did not exist. But, this is a choice - no one (not even a teenager) needs to use social media at all. Etc.

Answer:

A psychologist mines big data on teens and finds many ways this generation—the “iGens"—is different from Boomers, Gen Xers, and Millennials.

Explanation:

In her new book, psychologist Jean Twenge uses large-scale surveys to draw a detailed portrait of ten qualities that make today’s teens unique and the cultural forces shaping them. Her findings are by turn alarming, informative, surprising, and insightful, making the book—iGen:Why Today’s Super-Connected Kids Are Growing Up Less Rebellious, More Tolerant, Less Happy—and Completely Unprepared for Adulthood—and What That Means for the Rest of Us—an important read for anyone interested in teens’ lives.
