Answer:

Learning history is necessary in order not to repeat the mistakes from the past.

Explanation:

Those who don’t learn history are more likely to repeat it. This attitude makes sense and it’s rarely arguable. People who don’t remember the historical facts can easily repeat them. It’s normal because society is very consistent. No matter how far humanity has come, not so many things changed.

This phrase derives from the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century and the founder of it was George Santayana, a Spanish-born American author, philosopher, essayist, poet, and novelist.

Santayana had a big influence on many philosophical thoughts. His quote that those who cannot remember the past more likely to repeat it is still very well known in the society.

The irony of this quote is that since the 20th century until now there is nothing new. Nothing new can happen without it to be connected to the past, progress depends on retentiveness.

“Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it” means that we have an obligation to save our past in order to keep the present. If we choose selectively what will we remember, it won’t be adequate heritage to future generations.

Not everything can be found on the internet, this technology field is still young. The one who keeps all the information is history.

The sentence implies that, Crocodile is likely still as powerful as he once was.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

"Crocodile was, in the days when animals still could talk, the acknowledged foreman of all water creatures and if one should judge from appearances one would say that he still is." If we look at the details of this sentence, we will notice that crocodile is referred to as ‘foreman.’

Foreman means the one who leads, the one who’s team leader. Here, crocodile is addressed as a boss of all other water creatures. The last line states that ‘he still is’ which means in past he was a leader, and even in present he is still a leader.

Answer:

Ken looked in his backpack to find his camera, but it wasn’t there. The sun was casting its warmest beams, and people on the sidewalk were having a hard time walking around him. After a couple of elbow bumps, Ken thought it’d be better to go inside a café. The drops of sweat he felt running down his neck were not helping him remember what could have happened to his camera.

He might have left it on the counter while he talked to that ice cream seller. Joseph was his name. He had been good friends with Ken’s grandparents. Ken had taken the camera out to show it to him, to tell him it had been a gift from his grandparents, the only ones who supported his decision to change careers. And then he left without it, distracted by his own thoughts, by the fact that he missed his grandpa very much. What would Joseph think? Ken ordered some cold water. His skin still felt hot and moist. He walked back, embarrassed. Would Joseph understand?

Note: I used the word café, since I think "cofé" is just a misspelling.

The above question wants to assess your writing ability and for that reason, it is not right for me to write a text for you, but I will show you how to write one.

First, you should imagine how Ken's story might develop. It will completely depend on his creativity.

Once you've figured out Ken's story, you can write your text like this:

Answer:

Humanism--A rationalist outlook attaching prime importance to human matters.

Rationalism-"The practice or principle of basing opinions and actions on reason and knowledge rather than on religious belief or emotional response.

Idealism-- "Any  system of thought in which the objects of knowledge are held to be in some way dependent on the activity of the mind."

Explanation:  

Antigone, the idealist, insists on consulting no one but herself: “I am not listening to you”

Rationalism--Creon said yes to the way the world is, he “will never stop paying” (p. 50). He seems the respectable one.

Humanism--Haemon asks the price of all this: “to whom shall I have to lie?  . . . “To whom must I sell myself?

Final answer:

In Antigone, the characters display the concepts of Idealism through Antigone's dedication to moral law, Humanism through Creon's initial exercise of human authority, and Rationalism through Haemon's logical arguments.

Explanation:

Humanism, Rationalism, and Idealism are philosophical concepts that are reflected through characters in Sophocles' tragedy, Antigone. These concepts can be illustrated through the actions and words of the main characters.

Antigone

Antigone is a clear embodiment of Idealism, as she prioritizes moral law above the edicts of King Creon. Her steadfast resolution to bury her brother Polyneices, despite Creon's decree against it, highlights her allegiance to eternal laws of right and wrong over human laws.

Creon

The character of Creon represents the concept of Humanism in a complex way. Initially, he appears to exert human authority over divine will, but his tragic realization and repentance demonstrate a nuanced understanding that human action is within a larger, divine framework. Creon's adamant enforcement of state laws over religious customs speaks to his human-centric perspective, where the state's power is paramount.

Haemon

Haemon, Creon's son, showcases Rationalism through his reasoned arguments challenging his father's decisions. He pleads for Antigone's life and presents logical reasoning to value compassion over rigid adherence to the law, illustrating a rationalist approach to the conflict between individual rights and state laws.

Answer:

For the characters in Of Mice and Men, dreams are useful because they map out the possibilities of human happiness. Just as a map helps a traveler locate himself on the road, dreams help Lennie, George, and the others understand where they are and where they’re going. Many dreams in the work have a physical dimension: Not just wishes to be achieved, they are places to be reached. The fact that George’s ranch, the central dream of the book, is an actual place as opposed to a person or a thing underlines this geographical element. Dreams turn the characters’ otherwise meandering lives into journeys with a purpose, as they take pride in actions that support the achievement of their dreams and reject actions that do not. Having a destination gives the men’s lives meaning. Indeed, when others begin to believe in the dream-space that George has created, it becomes almost realer to them than the farm they work at, a phenomenon illustrated by Candy’s constant “figuring” about how to make good on their fantasy.

Dreams help the characters feel like more active participants in their own lives because they allow them to believe that the choices they make can have real, tangible benefits. They also help characters cope with misery and hardship, keeping them from succumbing to the difficulties they face regularly. In their darkest moments, George and Lennie invoke their ranch like a spell that can temper their daily sufferings and injustices. George and Lennie almost always fantasize about the ranch after some traumatic event or at the end of a long day, suggesting that they rely on their dreams as a kind of salve. The dream of the ranch offers George, Lennie, Candy, and the others a goal to work toward as well as the inspiration to keep struggling when things seem grim.But by the end of the story, Steinbeck reveals that dreams can be as poisonous as they are beneficial. What George discovers—and what Crooks already seems to know when he scornfully spurns Candy’s offer to join him, Lennie, and George—is that dreams are too often merely an articulation of what never can be. In such cases, dreams become a source of intense bitterness because they seduce cynical men to believe in them and then mock those men for their gullibility. The workers’ love of Western magazines suggests just such a relationship to dreams

Each one scoffs at the magazines in public but manages to sneak furtive glances when no one else is looking, as if they secretly wanted to be the cowboy heroes of pulp fiction. No one seems to understand this bitterness better than Crooks, whose sullen self-loathing is never stronger than when he lets himself believe in Lennie’s dream, only to be brutally reminded by Curley’s wife that he is not entitled to happiness in a white man’s world.

Ultimately, the dreams of ranches and rabbits that George and Lennie treasure are the very things that undo them. Seduced by how close he thinks he is to realizing his dream, George fools himself into thinking that Lennie can mind himself and stay out of trouble when past events confirm the contrary. In the end, George does not despair at Lennie’s death because the ranch is forever lost to him, but rather because his friend—the one good reality of his life, the one reality that redeemed George from worthlessness—is forever lost to him.

Answer:

As we know, the annual Hunger Games is probably the biggest "tradition" for the Capitol citizens, and we sense that the mood in the Capitol is festive and holiday-like during the pre- and post-Games celebrations.

Final answer:

Reaping Day is a fictional event from "The Hunger Games" symbolizing the oppressive government's control, while historically, reaping refers to harvesting crops. Traditions like this are often accepted without question, as depicted in literature.

Explanation:

Reaping Day refers to a fictional event in the book "The Hunger Games" where individuals are chosen to participate in a battle to the death as part of a yearly ritual. This tradition arose from a rebellion against the dystopian society's government, known as the Capitol, to serve as a reminder of the consequences of insurrection.

The concept of reaping in historical and agricultural contexts involved harvesting crops at the end of the growing season, as seen in medieval illustrations and the evolution of harvesting technology, such as Cyrus McCormick's mechanical reaper. However, the Reaping Day in The Hunger Games has a more sinister connotation, symbolizing the oppressive control of a government over its people rather than the communal and celebratory nature of historical harvesting.

Festivals like the annual lottery, as described in Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery", also depict a dark tradition with a festive facade, where townspeople gather to participate in a grim ritual without fully understanding its origins or purpose, akin to the unquestioning acceptance of tradition in The Hunger Games by characters like Old Man Warner.

The saguaro cactus has adaptations to survive in the desert without water, including water storage in its stem and a shallow root system. The cactus also lacks leaves to reduce water loss.

'How does the saguaro cactus adapt and store water for survival in arid environments? this question would best help Lexie find information about this topic.

Explanation:

The saguaro cactus has several adaptations that allow it to survive in the desert without water. One adaptation is its ability to store water in its large, barrel-shaped stem. The stem can hold a significant amount of water, which the cactus can use during dry periods. Another adaptation is the cactus's shallow root system, which reaches out extensively and allows it to gather moisture from rare rainfalls. Additionally, the lack of leaves on the saguaro cactus reduces water loss through transpiration.

Answer and Explanation:

"Young Goodman Brown" is a short story by author Nathaniel Hawthorne, the same author who wrote "The Scarlet Letter". Published in 1835, the story takes place in Salem during the witch hunt.

Goodman Brown is a young man who believes in God and Heaven, and who looks up to several members of his community as role models. For some unknown reason, he is following the devil into the woods for an initiation ceremony. He tries to resist, thinking of his pious father and grandfather, only to be told by the devil that they too were corrupt.

While walking further into the woods, Brown sees a respectable dame who taught him catechism. He is astonished to find out she is actually a witch (1). Soon afterwards, he sees the minister and the deacon (2) riding their horses by, going to the very ceremony with the devil. Still stunned, Brown arrives at the ceremony to see the whole town there, including his own wife (3). They have all given their souls away to the devil. Brown loses his faith in humanity, living as a bitter man till his death comes.

Goodman Brown sees a figure resembling himself, his wife at a witches' meeting, and the menacing darkness of the forest.

In Nathaniel Hawthorne's story, 'Young Goodman Brown', Goodman Brown experiences several astonishing sights during his journey into the forest at night. First, he meets a figure who resembles himself but older. This figure, representing evil, carries a staff that looks like a serpent. Second, Goodman Brown is shocked when he sees his pious wife, Faith, in the forest at the witches' meeting, and hears her voice among those who are apparently there to welcome the devil. Finally, he witnesses the darkness of the wilderness at night, a darkness that takes on an ominous, almost menacing quality, reflecting his inner turmoil and fear of the unknown.

Answer:

Explanation:

Words used in the story that suggest a mysterious event include 'very curious', 'very interesting', and descriptions of the creature's physical features, indicating it is not ordinary. The proliferation of creatures across the country as 'running alive with dragons' sets the stage for the unfolding mystery.

Words from the excerpt of The Book of Dragons Chapter III The Deliverers of Their Country by E. Nesbit suggesting that something mysterious is about to happen include the father finding the object from Effie's eye very curious and very interesting, describing the object with well-developed limbs, a long caudal appendage, and bat-like wings. These descriptions hint at the unusual and fantastical nature of the creature, which is not typical of an ordinary irritant found in one's eye. Additionally, when Effie's situation leads to the discovery of the same creatures in other parts of the country, and their proliferation is described as running alive with dragons of all sizes, it clearly signals a mysterious and fantastical event unfolding.
