3. wnat does the Host get out of the contest since he cannot win the free supper?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The Host brought a bargain so that all of them will have supper at his inn once again. What this means is that he will actually receive money for twenty-nine meals when they return to his inn.

Explanation:

The Canterbury Tales is narrated by Chaucer. The Host is described by Chaucer as "there was no manly attribute he lacked". He is used to provide contrast among the pilgrims. The Pardoner is described as effeminate and while others are seen as preying on weaker people or falling victim to their own vices.

He gives the pilgrims something that would make them to join the contest that he had proposed. He brings the bargain to them. He also reminds them that they will not find pleasure if they ride alone.

The Canterbury Tales is known to be a collection of 24 stories which was written by Geoffrey Chaucer between 1387 and 1400.

Read the excerpt from “How I Learned English.”

Someone said “shin” again,
There was a wild stamping of hands on the ground,
A kicking of feet, and the fit
Of laughter overtook me too,
And that was important, as important
As Joe Barone asking me how I was
Through his tears, picking me up
And dusting me off with hands like swatters,
And though my head felt heavy,
I played on till dusk
Missing flies and pop-ups and grounders
And calling out in desperation things like
“Yours” and “take it,” but doing all right,
Tugging at my cap in just the right way,
Crouching low, my feet set.
“Hum baby” sweetly on my lips.

How do things change for the speaker after he laughs with the other boys?

He tries harder to impress others.
He finally has a sense of belonging.
He no longer cares about fitting in.
He no longer avoids playing baseball. 30 points

Consider what you already knew about
the mythological character, Icarus, before
reading this poem. How does this poem
cause your perception of Icarus to
change? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Previously, I knew of Icarus as being the boy who got too greedy and flew towards the sun without thinking of the consequences. After, I believe he had good reason to. He had been trapped in Crete for so long, that he was so excited to see the world and all that was of it. Icarus is meant to teach people to be mindful of consequences before you perform any actions, even if it does seem like the best option in the moment. Don't let your greed override your logical side.

Explanation:

The story of "Icarus" shows how arrogance and a fear of failing can keep people from realizing their full potential. The brilliant artisan Daedalus, who constructs the wings they use to make their getaway using feathers and wax, is Icarus' father in the original myth.

What is the lesson of Icarus's story?

Let's instead take away the hubris-avoidance lesson that the myth of Icarus is meant to impart. Avoid flying too high. Recognize that there are boundaries, such as the fundamental limit that a finite system cannot support infinite growth.

Henry A. Murray was the first to use the term "Icarus complex" in psychoanalysis and personality theory to describe a specific kind of overambitious personality. It has been applied by psychosynthesis to people whose spiritual ambition exceeds the boundaries of their personality, which has caused a backlash.

Giver


Prompt 1 - In the Giver, everyone is nearly the same. All things are controlled and individuality has been eliminated. All this is done to bring peace to the common good Is there an advantage to this way of life and how can it be used in today's world?

Prompt 2 - Discuss the attitude toward euthanasia as expressed in The Giver. Does the novel condemn, promote, or donditionally accept the practice? Explain your choice with evidence from the text.

Answers

Answer:

Prompt 1: The society in the Giver, is structured in such a way that promotes security over freedom. The people have no choices or freedom of any kind, yet they don't need to worry about getting enough resources, or basic survival needs because everything is planned out by the government.

Prompt 2: I would say that the attitude toward euthanasia is mostly accepted because that is what is written into the society, and part of your planned out life. However, I think you would need to go back to the text and pay attention to the tone and word choices around that subject.

Stave 2 depicts Scrooge as a young boy in a boarding school in England. This was somewhat ordinary for a family with money back then (to send their boys to boarding school). According to Stave 2, how were things different for Ebenezer though, as compared to the other boys attending his school?

Answers

Answer:

Lonely and alone.

Explanation:

Though Ebenezer attented a boarding school and belonged to a pretty good family back then, he was always lonely and alone at school.

Stave 2 depicts how Ebenezer would sit all alone near the fireplace while reading books. When the Christmas spirit showed Ebenezer this scene from the past, he wept to see himself as a poor forgotten self.

Ebenezer then regretted not giving anything to the boy who was singing a Christmas Carol at his door last night. The scene from his past reminded him that the boy who sang the Christmas carol was just like him.

Answers

Incomplete question. However, I inferred you are referring to the setting found in the story, "Hachiko the dog".

Explanation:

Remember, at the beginning of the story recall they never told Shibuya Station to Hachiko (chūken Hachikō, Japenese) until towards the end of the story.

Hachiko's story is important to the people of Japan as it is one that teaches us the quality of loyalty. Even after the death of its owner, Hachiko went to the Shibuya Station to wait for his master for a period of 9 nine years. it teaches a great lesson that if a dog can be loyal to a human, then humans should do the same to their fellow man.

What is the story silent dancing about?

Silent Dancing is a Partial Remembrance of a Puerto Rican Childhood by Judith Ortiz Cofer, published in 1990, is a memoir of growing up in two different cultures, each with its own language, traditions, and views on what it means to be a woman.

The narrative is not an autobiography, the author clarifies in the book's introduction; rather, it is an effort to reestablish contact with the numerous lives that comprise her memories of her youth.

The vignette "Primary Lessons" describes Ortiz Cofer's first-hand encounter with Puerto Rican perspectives on racial inequality and poverty.

The color coding on the island is a device used by Cofer in "Primary Lessons" to represent a lack of freedom. So, the fourth choice is the correct one.

Read these paragraphs.

A police officer’s primary duty is to protect the lives and property of others. To become a police officer, a high school diploma or its equivalent is required. Additionally, most must also graduate from their agency’s training academy and fulfill difficult personal and physical qualifications, as well. In 2010, police officers in the United States earned a median yearly income of approximately $55,000. Unfortunately, there is a high rate of on-the-job injuries for police officers.

A judge is responsible for applying the law in court and overseeing the legal process. One of the major duties of a judge is to help negotiate agreements between opposing parties. Most judges are elected or appointed, and they are typically required to have a law degree and to have worked as a lawyer. The average median yearly salary for judges in 2010 was $92,000.

Both of these careers are a part of the legal system. Similarly, both require specialized training before a job can be obtained. However, it takes much longer to become a judge than it does a police officer, and a judge can expect to make more money. Although they are both trained to uphold the law, the role each plays in the legal system is very different.

What does the signal word “Similarly” tell the reader in the third paragraph?

Judges and police officers both play roles in the legal system.
Police officers and judges earn similar yearly wages and benefits.
It takes the same amount of time to become a police officer and a judge.
It takes specialized training to become both a police officer and a judge.

Answers

Answer:

It takes specialized training to become both a police officer and a judge.

Explanation:

In the sentence "Similarly, both require specialized training before a job can be obtained", it says exactly the answer, and then there's the sentence

"However, it takes much **longer** to become a judge than it does a police officer", that automatically crosses out the option "It takes the same amount of time to become a police officer and a judge."

It can't be the option "Police officers and judges earn similar yearly wages and benefits." Because of the sentence "and a judge can expect to make more money."

In the text, there is an sentence that would trick some people into believing that it's the option, "Judges and police officers both play roles in the legal system." this is the sentence in the text "Although they are both trained to uphold the law, the role each plays in the legal system is very different." It wouldn't be it because sure it says that they play a role in it, but no where does it say they both play a role, and it's irrelevant to the question.

Define 'open depth of field ' in ur own words

Answers

Explanation:

Depth of field is defined as the area in a projected image, forward and aft of the focal plane, which also appears to be in focus in the image. When you pass light through a lens and focus that light to form an image on a piece of film, digital sensor, projection screen, etc., the area of the image that is in true focus is thin—the focal plane. Everything else is out of focus, to some degree. However, because of the delicacy of the out-of focus regions, you cannot notice the softness of the image until, as objects are located farther away from that plane of focus, the blur reaches a certain level.  Our eyes, and cameras, see a region of depth in an image where everything appears to be in focus.
