in the cat in the rain ,by ernest hemmingway why does the husband's offer to go down get the kitty seen insincere?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: He was quite comfortable on the bed and gave in too easily to his wife.

Explanation:

In this scenario in the book, "Cat in the Rain", George, who is the husband, is on the bed where he is reading whilst next to two pillows showing that he was in a relaxed position.

When they needed to retrieve the cat, George offered to do so but when he wife insisted to a small degree that he didn't, he quickly accepted this and went back to reading. His offer was therefore perceptibly insincere because he was relaxed and did not want to give up this comfort and so quickly took a way out when it was offered to him.

What do you think would be the effects of creating an environmental park? Would you be in favor of such a park?
Explain your point of view.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I would support the authorities in my city who propose spending a large part of their budget on the creation of an environmental park. And think is a great project and so much needed in this times.

I think that the effects of creating an environmental park would be to protect the environment, the flora, the fauna and to preserve the ecology of the region. This environmental park should provide the proper protection of wildlife and biodiversity.

Environmental changes have been occurring on this earth for a long time.

Deforestation is notorious. Global warming is real. The temperature on planet earth is increasing. Water pollution is a major concern worldwide. Industries throw all kinds of toxic waste into rivers and lakes, polluting fresh water. Air pollution is equally a major issue.

That is why the construction of an environmental park would create many benefits for the region.

What programmes can schools organise to develop strength of character and resilience in our students?​

Answers

Answer:

Schools can create programs where students come into direct contact with workers who are essential to the functioning of the country, but who do not have the correct recognition. This program can also feature people who have had a very difficult life, but managed to overcome their difficulties with a lot of resilience and that contributed not only to their character, but also to the way they see the world.

Explanation:

The best way to stimulate the character and resilience of students is to introduce them to people who were and are capable of being resilient in any circumstance, maintaining an integrity and well-structured character, even if the circumstances of life try to provoke the opposite. In this case, schools should promote communication between these people and students, allowing them to have good access that can show that no matter what problem they are going through, being resilient and faithful to the character can make them triumphant.

suggest four recommendation of government that may and control laws in Community services​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Communities operate in the context of federal and state policies that can affect local government decisions relevant to health through laws and regulations, through the allocation of resources, and by shaping political will on issues and approaches. Among the more widely recognized policies are those that fund or regulate health care delivery services. But policies in a variety of areas, ranging from education to land use and housing, the environment, and criminal justice, can be relevant to health disparities. Policies can vary significantly across geographic areas and over time in establishing priorities, providing funding, or encouraging collaboration. They can provide important opportunities or constitute barriers to promoting health equity. The policy context shapes the levers that are available to communities to address change.

It seems reasonable to assume that the better informed communities are about the implications of federal and state policy and policy changes, the greater their ability will be to respond effectively to address health disparities and help achieve change in the determinants of health. And, conversely, the more the needs of communities are considered in decision making at the federal and state levels, the more effective those policies will be. In other words, policy makers have the opportunity to lay the groundwork for community success. This policy context (i.e., socioeconomic and political drivers) is highlighted in the report’s conceptual model in Figure 6-1.

Answer:

Irony

Explanation:

Irony is a literary device where what was expected to happen differs from what actually happens. This device was used by Gwendolyn Brooks in this poem above because even though it was expected that people had longed for the truth and were expected to embrace it when faced with it, the opposite seemed to be the case for they ran away from the truth. This can be further narrowed down to Situational Irony because what was expected to be the case was actually not what happened.
