On the ranch in Steinbeck’s novella "Of Mice And Men", which could be described as "a world often ruled by the dollar and what it can buy," how exactly does "friendship, like love, open other vistas"? What is the relationship between friendship and dreams?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

After reading "Of mice and Men," we can see that friendship and love promote emotional support that can bring a certain comfort and care, which allows individuals to plan their dreams and try to achieve them, since they have no money to supply them. In this case, we can say that friendship and love support individuals, allowing them to establish perspectives and try to reach them.

The book also presents a relationship between friendship and dream, showing that dreams shared between friends can be realized more easily, since they like to fight together for the same goals.

Which situation gives an example of intrinsic motivation?
A. A student writes an essay to win a free trip.
B. A student writes an essay to explain his feelings.
C. A student writes an essay to get a scholarship.
D. A student writes an essay to receive prize money.

Answers


The answer to this would be:

D, A student writes an essay to receive prize money.

Here’s why.

The basic definition of intrinsic motivation is doing an activity for satisfaction, rather than some separable consequence.

Adding onto the definition, a person who is intrinsically motivated would act for the fun or for a challenge. And would do this for their own sake for rewards.

Meaning, they would care about their own personal awards, such as winning prize money for writing an essay.

Concluding my reasoning, the answer once more would be D. If this answer is wrong, then the answer for your question would be A.

(I’m fairly certain I’m not wrong though)

Refer to the Newsela article “Dying of Hunger: What Is a Famine?”

What is the author’s viewpoint in the article?

The author is concerned with an accurate and factual description of famine so it will not be politicized.

The author rejects the definition of famine because there are factors that prevent a true understanding of famine.

The author is more focused on stopping suffering in war-torn countries than finding ways to relieve famine.

The author believes the best way to address the issue of starving populations is to hold governments responsible for famine.

A Good Day for a Bad Decision
Have you ever noticed that some people always seem to make the right choices? They may be the person who always picks the right pitch to swing at, or the one who always picks the pair of shoes that quickly become a popular fad. On the other hand, some people never seem to make a good decision. They may be the kids who ride a bike down a steep hill and crash into a bush or the ones who step to the edge of a sidewalk in time to get splashed by a car. How do some always seem to be living the good life while others seem doomed to misery? Is this just a matter of luck?
While luck probably has something do with it, the better explanation may be that the two groups have differences in the development of their brains. You see, most adult humans use their cerebral cortex to make decisions. The cerebral cortex is the part of the brain in the front of your head that deals with how you perceive the world and respond appropriately. It also helps you control your impulses. This part of the brain is still growing and developing connections well into your adult years. So for young adults and teenagers, the decision-making center of the brain is not completely formed yet.
At the same time, the teenage brain is also experiencing growth in another part of the brain—the amygdala (a-mig-dala). This part of the brain is responsible for emotions. Specifically, the amygdala talks to other parts of the brain about events related to rewards and fear.
In essence, our emotional brains are having growing spurts and our impulses are out of control at the same time our cerebral cortexes are not finished growing. We simply don't have the tools to control those emotions and impulses. As a result, teenagers feel overly emotional and wishy-washy when it comes to decisions. This development cycle is one reason society doesn't consider children to be adults until after they are 18. Biologically, the teenage brain is not generally ready for adult decisions.
So the differences between those who seem to make good decisions and those who seem to make bad ones may be fewer than you think. In fact, if you study the people you think make only good decisions, you will likely find they also make some catastrophically bad ones as well. A person's ability to make a good decision increases with age and experience though we all develop at different rates. While you are young, you may want to take advantage of those around you with bigger cerebral cortexes: adults. Their advice may be just what is needed to counter your amygdala.

Answers

Answer:

C). A person's ability to make a good decision increases with age and experience though we all develop at different rates.

Explanation:

The third option i.e. 'a person's ability...rates' most aptly conveys the central idea of the given text. It displays how an individual's decision-making ability enhances as their age develops and as they gain experience in their life. This helps them in gaining the maturity to make correct choices in their life using their cerebral cortex which allows them to perceive the world better. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
