Read this excerpt from "The Unseen Values."

Scientific research has never been amenable to rigorous cost accounting in advance. Nor, for that matter, has exploration of any sort. But if we have learned one lesson, it is that research and exploration have a remarkable way of paying off—quite apart from the fact that they demonstrate that man is alive and insatiably curious. And we all feel richer for knowing what explorers and scientists have learned about the universe in which we live.
Based on the passage above, the reader can infer that the author values -

accountability
money
history
knowledge

Answer: Historyyyyyy

Answer:

Hey Mile's I see you giving up on playing the banjo. Don't give up have a growth don't. If you don't succeed try try again practice makes better.

Answer:

Imagine if you got what you want, every time. No struggle. No hard work. No challenges. No hard work required.

Some of you are saying… that would be great… You would be weak!

And then, when something hard comes up in your life, you wouldn’t know how to handle it, because you have never gone through anything that strengthens you.

You can not GROW  without struggle. You can not develop STRENGTH without resistance, without challenging yourself, without struggle.

PAIN is your friend. Maybe not in the moment. But for the evolution of your soul, for the long term benefit of you as a stronger human being – pain IS YOUR FRIEND.

If you didn’t have failures… If you didn’t have struggles… If you didn’t have disappointment, you could have no strength, no courage, no compassion. How could you? Those qualities are MADE from your pain and struggle.

You were given pain because you are strong enough to handle it. You were given this LIFE because you are strong enough to live it. Because you are strong enough to drive though it. To THRIVE THROUGH IT. To inspire others through it.

They will look to you and say:

He did it,

She did it,

I have the strength to do it to.

You are stronger than you think. You’ve survived all your challenges to this point… And you will survive whatever is coming. But next time a struggle comes I don’t want you to curse the skies. Know that it was sent for a reason and a lesson. It might be to make you stronger, it might be to teach you patience, it might be for you to show others your spirit, there is a reason.

So don’t you give up. You have a purpose in this world. And you will only find it if you keep going and keep GROWING.

When Geraldine looked to the sky, she was amazed by what she saw. The tail from a comet cut across the sky like a knife through butter. It was the first time she had seen one in real life. Every comet she had seen up until now came from a book.

She almost didn't see it at first. The stars hung in the sky like a million eyes blinking and winking down at Geraldine. Geraldine wasn't even thinking about them or the campfire or the woods. Her mind was someplace else, and she had her mind on a lot of different things. She was thinking about how she was going to pay for college. She was thinking about graduation. She was thinking about everything but the sky. The last time that she was in the woods was when she was a little girl. It seemed so foreign to her. As her mind wandered, that's when the comet appeared. It was almost like it had read her thoughts. It passed over her head, and she traced its path with her finger like she was waving a magic wand.

C.
iambic trimeter (The foot has an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. This pattern repeats three times in each line.)
D.
trochaic tetrameter (The foot has a stressed syllable followed by an unstressed syllable. This pattern repeats four times in each line.)

Answers

A. Iambic te tear meter

Answer:The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Lambic tetrameter (The foot has an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. This pattern repeats four times in each line).

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe

In the excerpt the first syllable is not stressed, and it is followed by a stressed syllable; this is called a iamb. This was common in Greek comedies and tragedies.

This pattern is repeated four times during the verses, so it is a tetrameter.

Division is the inverse operation of multiplication. -2 6 = -12. -12 6 then "undoes" this multiplication, leaving us with a quotient of -2. Multiplication and division follow the same rules related to signs. A negative integer multiplied by a positive integer gives us a negative product. Similarly, a negative integer divided by a positive integer gives us a negative quotient. However, unlike multiplication, division is not commutative. If you change the order of the number you're dividing and the number you're dividing by, you will get a different quotient.
