WHY DO WE JUDGE PARENTS FOR PUTTING KIDS AT PERCEIVED — BUT UNREAL — RISK?
by Tania Lombrozo for NPR2016
Which of the following describes why people’s views on leaving children unattended has changed? Parents leave their children unattended more often in modern day. Parents know that they will be held accountable legally if something happens to their child. America’s news emphasizes perceived risks to children more so than other countries. The risks that children face are seen as more common and are exaggerated by social commentary.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The risks that children face etc.

Explanation:

We have to keep in mind that we´re talking about the people's views, and not the Parents as such. So we can cross out the first two that mention Parents. Although I believe in media´s influence I doubt it very much that  America's news  - this is not very exact: it could be the news in Chile - is very different from any other country in this respect.

So there remains only one, which seems to be the most reliable and logic explanation. Especially when we focus on Perceived - but unreal - risk.

Answer 2
Final answer:

People's views on leaving children unattended have changed due to increased media coverage of risks, greater legal accountability for parents, and changing societal norms around parenting.

Explanation:

The shift in people's views about leaving children unattended can largely be attributed to several factors. One of these is the heightened emphasis on child safety in contemporary parenting advice and public discourse. This has been driven, in large part, by a more media-saturated society where dangers to children—both real and perceived—are more highly publicized, leading to an increased perception of risk.

Another factor is the changing legal environment. Parents now face greater legal accountability if something happens to their children while they are unattended, which has discouraged many parents from leaving their children alone.

Finally, societal norms around parenting have also changed significantly. In many parts of America, there is now a stronger expectation that parents should constantly supervise their children, which contrasts with earlier generations where children often had more independence and were regularly left unattended.

Drops of water fell on the red blanket and soaked into dark icy spots.

Peter received a second-hand safety razor.Mouschi, the cat, got a ball of paper with a string attached to it.The remaining gifts and recipients mentioned in your question are not directly from The Diary of Anne Frank and therefore cannot be accurately matched with characters from the diary.

Arrange the four characters in chapter 4 in order of their social standing (of mine and men).

Answers

Answer:

The four characters in order of their social hierarchy:

CandyCurley's WifeCrooksLennie

Explanation:

"Of Mice and Men" is a novella penned by John Steinback. The novella is about two ranch, George and Lennie, who struggles to find a job during the time of the Great Depression.

The social hierarchy of the characters in chapter 4 of the novella is

Candy- He is the most respectable old man on the ranch. Candy is physically disabled. He appears first among other characters in chapter 4 because of his reputation. But, in whole of the novella, he stands in the lower pyramid of the social standing, though at the top among it.Curley's wife- Curley's wife is the only female character in the novella. She stands at the second position among the four characters in chapter 4. But, in the whole novel, she stands at the bottom third position in the lower strata of social standing as she is a female. Females were not regarded in high position at that time.Crooks- Crooks stand at the second last position among the four characters in chapter 4. In the whole novella also, he stands at the second last position of the social hierarchy. Crooks is grouped in the lower social strata because he is the black person on the ranch and he is physically disabled also.Lennie- Lennie is the closest friend of George but still he stands at the last position not only among the other four characters of chapter 4, but also in the whole novella. It is because he is mentally challenged.

In Chapter 4 of John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men, the social standings from highest to lowest are Curley's wife, Candy, Lennie and Crooks.

In John Steinbeck's novel Of Mice and Men, Chapter 4 features four characters whose social standings can be distinctly arranged:

Curley's wife: As the wife of the boss's son, she holds the highest social position among the four, despite her loneliness and lack of power.Candy: An aging ranch hand with a physical disability, he has some security because of his long service on the ranch but little social power.Lennie: Although strong and employed, Lennie is at the bottom of the social hierarchy due to his mental disability.Crooks: He is the stable hand, but his position is complicated by the racial discrimination he faces as an African American.The social standings in this chapter reflect the larger themes of power, discrimination, and loneliness prevalent throughout the novel.

Complete Question

Summary of Chapter 4 of John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men"

Chapter 4 of John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men" focuses on the characters left behind in the bunkhouse while the other men go into town. The chapter centers on Crooks, the black stable hand, who is isolated from the other men due to his race. His room is filled with personal items that signify his solitary life, separate from the white workers.

Lennie wanders into Crooks' room, seeking company. At first, Crooks is defensive and wary, but he eventually softens and talks to Lennie. Their conversation reveals Crooks' deep loneliness and the discrimination he faces. Crooks begins to open up about his feelings of isolation and the pain of being excluded because of his race.

Candy joins them, and the conversation turns to the dream of owning a piece of land, which gives Crooks a glimmer of hope and makes him momentarily believe he could be part of this dream. However, the mood shifts when Curley's wife enters. She mocks the men's dreams and belittles them, asserting her power and reminding Crooks of his place in the social hierarchy. Her presence reestablishes the racial and social boundaries that the men momentarily forgot.

After she leaves, Crooks' brief hope is shattered, and he withdraws, returning to his defensive posture and telling Candy to forget about including him in their plans. The chapter highlights themes of loneliness, isolation, and the harsh realities of discrimination and shattered dreams.

The Extraordinary Music of Johann Sebastian Bach Natalie StewartJohann Sebastian Bach is one of the most famous composers in music history. He wrote more than a thousand pieces of music in his lifetime. You may not realize it, but youve probably heard Johann Sebastians music. He has written some of the most famous and recognizable classical music of all time. Johann Sebastians father taught his youngest son about music and trained him to play the violin and the harpsichord, a piano-like instrument. Johann Sebastians father and uncles were musicians, so perhaps musical greatness was in the younger Bachs genes. Young Johann had seven older siblings. When Bachs parents passed away, Johann Sebastian went to live with his older brother, Johann Christoph.When Johann Sebastian moved in with his brother, his music entered a new chapter. Johann Christoph worked as an organist for a church and school. He taught his younger brother how to play the clavichord, an instrument that resembles an organ. In addition, Johann Sebastian became a member of his school choir and received an education in music. As the younger brother of an organist, Johann Sebastian assisted his brother with composing organ music. He was also able to help his brother maintain and repair his organ. Organs of this time were huge, and because Johann Sebastian was still young and small, he was able to crawl inside and fix the instrument from its intricate interior, tightening bolts and making other adjustments.While still young, Johann Sebastian applied for a scholarship to a prestigious school far from his home, and he won the scholarship! At his new school, he studied traditional subjects such as reading and writing; Johann Sebastians teachers also encouraged him to listen to the music of Germanys most famous composers as well as performances by Italian and French artists. The exclusive school educated the children of noble families, so Bach befriended many important people that he might not have otherwise met in his small hometown.In 1700s Europe, if musicians or composers sought work, they contacted the nobility, or members of wealthy upper-class society. Nobles had the money to employ composers and musicians. Beginning in 1703, Bach became court violinist and organist at Weimar, a city in Germany. In this position, Bach played the organ, but he was also expected to compose original pieces. At Weimar, Bach wrote some of his most famous music. He also took this opportunity to assemble classic pieces into a book to help students improve their playing. Johann Sebastian next accepted employment in Leipzig, a major German city; he kept the position for the rest of his life. Here, Johann Sebastian directed the music at many of the towns churches. He led the towns choir and taught its young people music. He was also expected to write special pieces for holidays. One of his compositions was so complicated that every musician in town was required to play the piece! Many pieces he created in his youth remained unfinished, so Johann Sebastian spent these years finishing them; many view this as the most prolific period of his career. Aside from creating music, Johann Sebastian traveled to other courts to hear musicians, and his love of organ construction never waned. Until his death in 1750, even as he lost his sense of sight in his later years, Johann Sebastian Bach kept abreast of new developments in the world of organ building.After his death, Johann Sebastians works were virtually forgotten for about a hundred years; however, when young composer and pianist Felix Mendelssohn performed a concert showcasing Bachs works, worldwide appreciation of Johann Sebastian resurfaced. Today, musicians still perform Bachs music. His children kept his compositions safe so people could enjoy them for many years.Read the passage on the left to answer the following questions:5)What evidence does the author provide to demonstrate Bachs natural musical talent?A)Bach to his more clever siblings.B)Bachs mother sang in the opera.C)Bach and his older brother were close.D)Bachs father and uncles were musicians.6)What is the narrators main purpose in this passage?A)to describe how to become a composerB)to convince the reader to be more musical.C)to entertain readers with a childhood storyD)to tell the true story of a real persons life7)The organizational structure of this passage isA)cause-effect.B)chronological.C)comparison-contrast.D)order of importance.
