There is a tale, “The Ring of Gyges,” that Feldman sometimes tells his economist friends. It comes from Plato’s Republic. A student named Glaucon offered the story in response to a lesson by Socrates—who, like Adam Smith, argued that people are generally good even without enforcement. Glaucon, like Feldman’s economist friends, disagreed. He told of a shepherd named Gyges who stumbled upon a secret cavern with a corpse inside that wore a ring. When Gyges put on the ring, he found that it made him invisible. With no one able to monitor his behavior, Gyges proceeded to do woeful things—seduce the queen, murder the king, and so on. Glaucon’s story posed a moral question: could any man resist the temptation of evil if he knew his acts could not be witnessed? Glaucon seemed to think the answer was no. But Paul Feldman sides with Socrates and Adam Smith—for he knows the answer, at least 87 percent of the time, is yes. The example in the excerpt helps the authors arrive at which of the following conclusions? The majority of people are corrupt. The majority of people are honest. Glaucon and Paul Feldman were wrong. Socrates and Adam Smith were wrong.

Dear Sir,
I am writing to your esteemed paper about the nuisance loudspeakers have posed in our locality. Many people, be it festivals or not, would install loudspeakers in and around the locality, playing music so loud that we can't even hear our own voices properly. We have written to the local authorities about it but nothing has been done so far.
The issue has led to the disturbance of out lives. Students can't study properly, elderly people cannot have peaceful sleep and babies are affected too.
So, if you could kindly highlight the issue in your daily paper, I hope the concerned authorities would do their part soon.
Thank you.

With online school, parents have many options for being involved in their children’s education. As Learning Coaches, parents (or other trusted adults) may choose to support learning by structuring the online school student’s daily routine or reviewing lessons and grades as often as they wish. They can consult with online school teachers in regular meetings and, when needed, play an active role by helping to monitor attendance, progress, and comprehension. While every family does online learning a bit differently, online educators agree that it’s a good idea to assist with organization and time management, encourage students, and praise them for their hard work.

A. Read the following passage.
Who Is My Neighbour?
A man was going from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him, and went away leaving him half-dead. A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he walked by on the other side. So too a rich man, when he came to the place and saw him, he walked by on the other side. But a man from Samaria, as he travelled, came where the man was; and when the Samaritan saw him, he took pity on him. He went to him and bandaged his wounds. Then he put the man on his donkey, took him to an inn and took care of him. The next day,he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. 'Look after him, 'he said, 'and when I return,I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.'

Isn't he the one who had mercy on him?

Which of these three do you think was a neighbour to the man who fell into the hand of robbers? Isn't he the one who had mercy on him?
The Samaritan was the one who helped the man. The Samaritan, yes he had mercy on the poor man even though they were perhaps from distinct regions and religions. If the man was from Jerusalem he was perhaps an Israelite an Israelites despised Samaritans due to their worship of many Gods. So, that the Samaritan took pity on this man was a leap of faith. After the man recovered he could have pretended that the Samaritan man never took care of him or that he never knew him in the first place.
1. What happened to the traveller when he was on his way to Jericho?
He got robbed, he fell into the hands of multiple robbers as the passage says “robbers” in plural. Then, “They stripped him of his clothes, beat him, and went away leaving him half-dead.”
2.What did the priest and the rich man do when they saw the half-dead traveller lying on the road?
Both went and walked the other side, they didn‘t help the poor man who was almost half-dead. The priest had a duty or obligation to the man because he was a priest. Supposedly he was to set an example for the community and those around him. He was to obey Gods laws to “help thou neighbor”. And, the rich man had the economic disposition to actually help the man, he just didn’t want to.
3.How did the Samaritan react when he saw the badly injured traveller?
He took pity on the man.
4. a. Why did the Samaritan give some money to the innkeeper?
So the innkeeper could take care of the man.
b. This shows he was kind, caring and generous. True or False? True
5.According to this story, can strangers be our neighbours?. Explain.
Yes, strangers can be our neighbors. The reason I state this is because strangers can help us in our time of need. Of course, strangers won’t help us move our couch to our new home. But, if we are being kidnapped and we scream for help and run, someone, a stranger can help us in our time of need. Also, strangers can help us with small tasks such as bringing our grocery to the car, etc.

Answers
Answer:
The author claims that humans are not meant to visit Antarctica by giving details to it natural habitat conditions that keeps man away from the continent.
Explanation:
The Last Wilderness Preserve is an article written by Kendra Washington. The author begins with telling that how humankind have exploited the natural habitat through littering, pollution, and interference. The author then remarks that how one part of the world, Antarctica, is preserved by nations by forming a treaty to avoid human interference of any kind on the land.

Textual evidence:
"Antarctica is the coldest and windiest continent with the least drinkable water. Few plants can grow and farming is likely impossible. Additionally, Antarctica is surrounded by three oceans and far away from inhabited lands."
"Tere is nothing welcoming about Antarctica, and we may consider this nature’s way of keeping humans at a safe distance."

Read the passage from chapter 5 of Animal Farm.
That evening Squealer explained privately to the other animals that Napoleon had never in reality been opposed to the windmill. On the contrary, it was he who had advocated it in the beginning, and the plan which Snowball had drawn on the floor of the incubator shed had actually been stolen from among Napoleon's papers. The windmill was, in fact, Napoleon's own creation. Why, then, asked somebody, had he spoken so strongly against it? Here Squealer looked very sly. That, he said, was Comrade Napoleon's cunning. He had seemed to oppose the windmill, simply as a maneuver to get rid of Snowball, who was a dangerous character and a bad influence. Now that Snowball was out of the way, the plan could go forward without his interference. This, said Squealer, was something called tactics. He repeated a number of times, "Tactics, comrades, tactics!” skipping round and whisking his tail with a merry laugh. The animals were not certain what the word meant, but Squealer spoke so persuasively, and the three dogs who happened to be with him growled so threateningly, that they accepted his explanation without further questions.

Orwell shows how Napoleon uses Squealer as a spokesperson, and how he is able to convince others to disregard the truth. Squealer speaks persuasively and uses complex words in order to alter the real story and convince the animals that Napoleon has their best interests at heart. This is a common strategy among dishonest leaders.
