In Antigone by Sophocles, Antigone is aware of the deadly consequences of burying her brother Polyneices against the king’s order. Yet she goes forward with it anyway because she can’t bear to let her brother's corpse rot and serve as food for scavenging birds. What theme of the play does her action reflect?
Answer: civil law versus morality
Explanation:
The theme of the play that is reflected by the action of Antigone is civil law versus morality.
Morality has to do with the principles regarding distinction between doing what is right and doing what is wrong. In this case, the fact that Antigone went against the order of the king and buried her brother as she couldn't bear seeing the corpse of her brother rot.
This explains the theme civil law versus morality.

Respected Sir,
I would like to bring to your kind attention the unfair treatment given to me by the different schools in the district.
Even after obtaining very good grades at the BECE, I have been denied admission in all of the schools while some gave me the excuse of no seats available. As a legal citizen and a good pupil, I am entitled to get the same education as the other students, which has been denied to me. I have appealed to many of the school principals but hardly anyone has responded to my queries.
So, it is my request if you could please look into the matter and help me in my attempts to be admitted to one of the schools.
Thank you.
Respectfully,
Sammy

But when cities or countries are accustomed to live under a prince, and his family is exterminated, they, being on the one hand accustomed to obey and on the other hand not having the old prince, cannot agree in making one from amongst themselves, and they do not know how to govern themselves. For this reason they are very slow to take up arms, and a prince can gain them to himself and secure them much more easily. But in republics there is more vitality, greater hatred, and more desire for vengeance, which will never permit them to allow the memory of their former liberty to rest; so that the safest way is to destroy them or to reside there.
–The Prince,
Niccolò Machiavelli
1. Which text structure does Machiavelli use in this passage?
A. Cause and Effect.
B. Problem and Solution.
C. Compare and Contrast.
2. Which signal word or words help you identify this structure?
A. "but".
B. "for this reason".
C. "on the other hand".
3. How does this text structure help the author convey his central idea?
A. It explains why living in a new state can fail.
B. It explains why a republic is the way to succeed.
C. It explains why destroying a state is successful.
Answer:
1. C. Compare and Contrast
2. C. On the other hand
3. A. It explains why living in a new state can fail
Explanation:
1.
Machiavelli compares as he puts it a stable country under the controlled rule of a monarchy or ' prince' which can fail if it does not have this control. Machiavelli contrasts that in a monarchy the people obey and are fast to follow orders. For this reason the people would not know how to govern themselves without the prince.
While a previous republic would be a "greater desire for Vengeance" Meaning the people would not be easily manipulated.
2. On the other hand signifies comparing one thing to another. it is the only option. that will fit with such a excerpt.
3. The text structure explains that a country ruled in an authoritarian way would make the people easier to manipulate and more loyal to their 'prince'. While the people of a old Republic where the prince would come to cease would be more rebellious and would be harder to keep in line. Machiavelli states that the prince should destroy them. Niccolò Machiavelli teaches a prince on how to control his people. There are many references on doing g anything necessary to keep power, but to your people you must seem fair and just. This shines through in the excerpt

It is one of the black marks of both the United States and Canada the people living on the west coast were deported to the interior of British Columbia and California. I don't know if anyone in the United States argued that it was unconstitutional, but the CCF party (now the New Democrats) did in Canada. You can't find a Japanese person in the interior of BC that doesn't vote NDP when the elections come around.
It is an utter nightmare to read about how the constitution was ignored. Why people who were citizens were deprived of their rights.

You have many sources of data from a town in Britain covering that period. Which four types of data would you study to investigate this theory?
the amount of wheat produced compared to barley and millet
the average cost of a home
the number of inns and pubs in the town

The Black Beauty
The first place that I can well remember was a large pleasant
meadow with a pond of clear water in it. Some shady trees
leaned over it, and rushes and water-lilies grew at the deep
end. Over the hedge on one side, we looked into a ploughed
field, and on the other, we looked over a gate at our master's
house, which stood by the roadside. At the top of the meadow
was a plantation of fir trees, and at the bottom a running brook
overhung by a steep bank. Whilst I was young, I lived upon my
mother's milk, as I could not eat grass. In the day time, I ran
by her side, and at night I lay down close by her. When it was
hot, we used to stand by the pond in the shade of the trees, and
when it was cold, we had a nice warm shed near the plantation
As soon as I was old enough to eat grass, my mother started
to go out to work in the day time, and come back in the
evening. There were six young colts in the meadow beside me,
all older than I was; some were nearly as large as grown-up
horses. I used to run with them and had great fun; we used
to gallop together round and round the field, as fast as we
could. Sometimes we had a rather rough play, for they would
frequently bite and kick as well as gallop.
I wish you to pay attention to what I am going to say to
you. The colts who live here are very good colts; but they are cart-horse colts, and of course they have not learned manners
You have been well bred and are well born; your father has a
great name in these parts, and your grandfather won the cup
two years at the Newmarket races; your grandmother had the
sweetest temper of any horse I ever knew, and I think you have
never seen me kick or bite. I hope you will grow up gentle and
good, and never learn bad ways do your work with a good
will lift your feet up well when you trot, and never bite or kick
even in play
Thave never forgotten my mother's advice, I knew she was a
wise old horse, and our master thought a great deal of her. Her
name was Duchess, but he often called her Pet. Our master
was a good kind man. He gave us good food, good lodging
and kind words; he spoke as kindly to us as he did to his little
children: we all were fond of him, and my mother loved him

What question will a reader who is unfamiliar with
scientific equipment most likely ask?
O What is a pipette and a concave slide?
O How long does the procedure take?
O Why do people prepare wet-
mount slides?
O What is the purpose of the paper towels?
Answer:
A). What is a pipette and a concave slide?
Explanation:
As per the question, the most likely question a reader unaware of the scientific equipment would ask would be that 'what is a pipette and a concave slide.' This is because he needs to know about what these equipment(Pipette and a Concave slide) are and their uses for understanding the procedure. Without knowing that a pipette is a small tube with an enlargement or bulb in the middle for transferring measured quantities of liquid and a concave slide is a microscopic slide used for examining comparatively thicker samples, they would not be able to either understand the process or follow it. Thus, option A is the correct answer.

Answer:

Shakespeare most often used sonnets to express emotion of love between characters.
What is an emotion?Emotions are mental states brought on by neurophysiological changes, variously associated with thoughts, feelings, behavioral responses, and a degree of pleasure or displeasure. There is currently no scientific consensus on a definition. Emotions are often intertwined with mood, temperament, personality, disposition, or creativity.
Research on emotion has increased over the past two decades with many fields contributing including psychology, medicine, history, sociology of emotions, and computer science. The numerous theories that attempt to explain the origin, function and other aspects of emotions have fostered more intense research on this topic. Current areas of research in the concept of emotion include the development of materials that stimulate and elicit emotion. In addition, PET scans and fMRI scans help study the affective picture processes in the brain.
