When was beowulf most likely composed? when did its events probably take place?

Answers

The composition of the poem also can be only assumed in the light of various facts present. One certain fact is that the composition took place after the death of Hygelac which was in 521 AD. If we look at the assumed date of the death of Beowulf it tells us that most likely the composition date is after 580 AD as that is the assumed death date of Beowulf. The manuscript was written before 1000 AD so in between these periods was Beowulf composed.

When we look at the cultural values and various contexts of the epic it tells us that Beowulf took place in the time of the Old English period or which is popularly known as Anglo-Saxon period.

Why was it difficult for early humans to cultivate land prior to the end of the last ice age?

Answers

...For one, because the landmass was covered in ice...but also because they didn't have the tools. So even if the the conditions for plant life was to be met, they'd still have to fertilize the land they were trying to cultivate. A good way for that to happen is for decomposition of animals or some other way...problem was, was that instead of animals decomposing and fertilizing the land, they were being frozen... 

Ice age is a period of long-term reduction in the temperature of Earth's surface and atmosphere, resulting in the presence of ice.

It was difficult for early humans to cultivate land before the end of ice age because the temperature of the Earth is too cold to support growth of plants. plants needs sunlight and there wasn't sunlight during the ice age.

The surface of the earth is also covered with ice which makes it difficult for early humans to cultivate land.

The rate of decomposition of dead animals is also slow because of the drop in temperature. Dead animals are supposed to decompose to add natural nutrients to the soil.

The Monkey King is a symbolic character found in Journey to the West, which is a representative novel of Chinese folklore and philosophies.

In which sentence is the word 'exiting' a gerund?

A. We were stuck in the parking lot behind all the exiting cars
B. After visiting hours, people were exiting as quietly as possible.
C. Check the smoke detector before exiting.
D. After the concert, all the guests were exiting.

Answers

The correct answer is C.

A gerund is a verb ending in -ing that functions as a noun.

In "Check the smokes detector before exiting" exiting is not functioning as the continuous form of the verb "to exist" but as a noun.

A is wrong because "parking" and "exiting" are both functioning as adjectives.

B is wrong because "visiting" is functioning as an adjective, and "exiting" comes after "were" and therefore is a verb.

C is wrong because of the same reason as the second part of B. "Were exiting" is a verb.

Compare Charles's outlook on the school with that of his parents. what specific phrases does lively use to build an understanding of what drives the characters?

Answers


From the point of view of Charles, he is fearful about this new school all along the story. On the contrary his parents want him to have an upper class atmosphere, to climb the social ladder. It could be said that Charles and his parents might show a certain distance and lack of communication which makes them live the same situation from complete opposite perspectives.
Final answer:

To compare Charles's outlook on school with that of his parents, it's essential to scrutinize Lively's specific phrases that illuminate their different perspectives and drives. The literary devices used in these phrases, like vivid language and metaphors, help underline variability in the characters' mindset and key elements of their character development.

Explanation:

The question asks for a comparison between Charles's outlook on the school with that of his parents. To clarify, one should analyze the phrases penned by Lively that illuminate the motivations and worldviews of the characters. For instance, an appreciation of

vivid language

and engaging narrative techniques helps underline the characters' perspectives and their interpersonal dynamics. Lively might express Charles's attitude towards school using illustrative language or metaphors, depicting it as a place of exploration or confinement, depending on his mood. His parents, on the other hand, may see school as an institution essential for Charles's development and progression into adulthood. An intense exploration of these specific phrases would reveal how they lead to an enhanced understanding of the characters and their motivations. By drawing a careful comparison between Charles and his parents, one can reach a deeper comprehension of Lively's character development technique.

What sentence is the topic sentence of the paragraph

Answers

The topic sentence is mostly the first sentence in a paragraph but not always. 

As it happens, Feldman’s accidental study provides a window onto a form of cheating that has long stymied academics: white-collar crime. (Yes, shorting the bagel man is white-collar crime, writ however small.) It might seem ludicrous to address as large and intractable a problem as white-collar crime through the life of a bagel man. But often a small and simple question can help chisel away at the biggest problems. Despite all the attention paid to rogue companies like Enron, academics know very little about the practicalities of white-collar crime. The reason? There are no good data. A key fact of white-collar crime is that we hear about only the very slim fraction of people who are caught cheating. Most embezzlers lead quiet and theoretically happy lives; employees who steal company property are rarely detected. What purpose does the “bagel man” serve in this argument?

The correct answer is:
