Any woman who understands the problems of running a house will be nearer "to understand" /"to understanding" the problems of running a country. Infinite or gerund? And why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

gerund.

A gerund functions as a noun. As such, it can function as both a subject or as an object of the sentence.

In your sentence, 'undertanding' is the object of the sentence. (specifically, the object of the preposition.)

Any woman who understands the problems of running a house will be nearer to understanding the problems of running a country.

Explanation:

For clarity and simplicity, consider this comparison ....

       S                          V                      prep.                     O

Any woman  .........   will be    nearer    to               understanding ....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                          BTW ... the word is 'infinitive,' not 'infinite.'

Explanation: the exposition, or the beginning of a story, is a great place to start introducing the setting because it helps the reader understand the story much earlier.

It would be weird to read a story, thinking it was taking place at school (based on context clues), and then like in the climax, one of the characters go "I'M BREAKING OUT OF THIS PRISON" and then you just sit there all flabbergasted

Answer:

Explanation:

It all started as a rumor, and before long, everyone knew about it. I thought I could keep my secrets to myself, but they were bound to escape me at some point. My name is Peter. Through an abnormality found upon my birth, I was born with an extra pinky toe, and with it came many intrusive thoughts. After a certain age, age 7 in fact, I became incredibly self-conscious, and the aforementioned thoughts became commonplace in my frontal lobe. Reflections like "I wish I was normal," and "Why was I born this way?" were incredibly common thoughts I would bring up. No one listened or cared to share advice until the 8th grade. By that point, I was largely comfortable with my genetic appendage and never paid it much mind. However, that all changed on the day I mentioned my extra toe to my best friend, a well-known gossipmonger in my school. It was then that everyone knew, and the day I decided not to attend high school next year. It started as a rumor, grew to insane proportions, and will remain a mystery from now on, unknown to all except who I trust.

what is the differences Filipinos between Thai people​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Thailand is a Buddhist country while Philippines is majority a Christian country

Thailand have lots of temples or wats as they call it. In Pinas, since majority are Christians, there are lots of churches. So instead of christian statues being sold in stalls here, its Buddhist statues of course:

 

 

Thai people mostly doesn’t communicate in English

So if you’re not really into sign language, you need to learn how to speak Thai. In the Philippines, even though we’re shy and kinda nosebleeding on our Engrish, we still find a way to adjust and speak it.

Thailand was never colonized vs the Philippines which had many invaders

Philippines was invaded by the Spaniards, Japanese, Americans, etc… Are Filipinos that friendly??

Chiang Mai in particular, is like a mini united nations

All foreigners of shapes and sizes flock in. Its like boracay but a bit old fashioned and without the sea.  And take note, its one of lonely planet’s top 10 cities to go in 2011… so talbog ang Boracay or Palawan tsk.. well choosing between polluted Manila and Chiang mai, i’d be honest and choose this old city ^_^… but wait till foreigners discover Bohol ^_^

Prices and cost of living in Thailand are lower than in the Philippines.

Thank you to undocumented workers (ex, refugees from Burma) who work for meager salary just to get by.

IRRI (International Rice Reasearch Institue) is located in the Philippines but rice is being imported to Pinas from Thailand and Vietnam

The reason for this is because there is not enough rice in the Philippines, is it because Filipinos dont want to farm anymore? Cant blame them. I do find it weird that the ones who produce food are at the bottom of the food chain.

In Thailand, it’s easy to travel to neighbouring countries.

Who would have thought you could travel to another country for 200 dollars? Well, the Philippines have low cost airlines such as cebu pacific that gives steep low discounted plane fares.

Thais eat bugs and worms, Filipinos eat duck embryos called balut

YUM! If you like to eat weird food like balut, bugs and worms, you might want to read some of my exotic but yummy weird food I have eaten around South East Asia.

 

Thailand bugs are delicious

 

Street dogs are everywhere here! also in Philippines :D

But the street dogs in Thailand have breeds! Hanep!

 

 

People judge white or light skin as the basis for beauty

So if brown is your natural color, it means you need to buy whitening creams to be pretty.. fakers (ooops i hear thunders and lightning! xD)

I still have to determine if there exist crab mentality here in Thailand.. will update this post if i snoop something.

Philippines vs Thailand: Which one is my favorite?

Personally, the two countries cannot be compared because they have their own unique beauty. Its like same same but still different.

But we need to learn from each other I guess. Take the good stuff, throw the bad. Towards a better society, not just for our countries but for the whole world as well. What about you? What do you think are the difference between both countries?

Which word in this excerpt from H. G. Wells's The War of the Worlds provides a context clue to the meaning of the word descended?

Answers

Answer:

Fallen.

Explanation:

The term "descended" means the act of falling, coming down from a higher place to a lower place. It is the act of coming down from a higher grown to a lower grown.

In H. G. Wells's "The War of the Worlds", the narrator/ speaker uses the term "fall/ fallen" multiple times in the given excerpt. The speaker describes the fallen mass "from outer space" which people thought must be another meteorite. And that was also why people did not go looking for it, for no one thought or expected it to be an alien ship.

Thus, the word is "fallen".

What is the difference between summarizing and paraphrasing?

Summarizing reduces a larger text by focusing on the main ideas, while paraphrasing restates the entire text.
Summarizing puts the text in the writer’s words, while paraphrasing quotes the original text.
Summarizing is generally longer than the original text, while paraphrasing only restates words that may cause confusion.
Summarizing is for the purpose of explaining the meaning behind the text, while paraphrasing focuses on retelling the main ideas.

Answers

Answer:

A) Summarizing reduces a larger text by focusing on the main ideas, while paraphrasing restates the entire text.

Explanation:

got it right on edge

While summarizing offers a concise overview of any written work by focusing on the main ideas, paraphrasing involves creatively rephrasing text (while maintaining the original meaning), hence option A is correct.

How to write a summary of a story?

A summary begins with a topic phrase that identifies the text's title, author, and primary message. You write a summary using your own words.

Only the main points of the original text are included in a summary. Do not add any of your personal observations, inferences, remarks, or opinions to a summary.

A strong summary ought to be thorough, succinct, cohesive, and independent. A summary needs to be thorough, you should pick out the key ideas from the original passage and make a list of them all.

Therefore, summary reduces a larger text by focusing on the main ideas, while paraphrasing restates the entire text.

Which rhetorical device or logical fallacy does he use and why?



Answers

Answer:

Mr. President uses the rhetorical device of allusion when he compared the economic settings of various countries around Europe for giving an answer to the national debt blames. He uses the logical fallacy of hasty generalization for the generalization of the impact of the great recession on the overall dynamics.

Explanation:

The two things required here are the rhetorical device and a logical fallacy. The rhetoric device, in this case, is the allusion. An Allusion is the repetition of places, persons, or areas that have been under similar circumstances. The use of various examples from Europe is an indication of that.

The logical fallacy in his statements is evident from the hasty generalization where the overall trend of the economic situation of the world especially Europe is laid out to ensure that similar situations exist.

What makes Tea Cake finally “snap”? What happens as a result?

Answers

Answer:

The one that causes Tea Cake to finally "snap" is the fact that Mrs. Turner, a co-owner of a coffee shop, would introduce his wife to her white son, since she considered it unacceptable that a Caucasian woman was with a black man, when Tea Cake heard the conversation, beat his wife severely, which generated the separation of the couple, many thought that the rage expressed by Tea Cake was product of Hydrophobia, a disease from which he died shortly after.

Explanation:

What made the Tea Cake “snap” was the jealousy he felt towards his wife.

We can arrive at this answer because:

Tea Cake was filled with rage when he saw that Mrs. Turner was introducing a man to his wife.He found this unacceptable and completely lost control, reaching the point of assaulting his wife and threatening her life.In addition to the jealousy, he felt diminished as he is a black man and his wife was being introduced to a white man.

Tea Cake's reaction is vastly over the top and reflects his explosive and passionate personality.
