Answer:
The story of the flood can be found in many ancient nations' mythology. Here will be given some of the striking similarities between versions of this story from The Epic of Gilgamesh and from The Bible.
Firstly, the flood was sent as a punishment for people's sins and misbehavior. One man was informed about the disaster; in The Bible it was Noah, in the Gilgamesh it was Utnapishtim. Both men built an ark containing many compartments and only one door. All animal species were brought on the boat. Although the flood didn't last the same amount of time in the two stories, its consequences were the same: the water covered the ground and the ark passengers were the only ones left alive.
Also, both boats landed on a mountain peak and both protagonists sent birds to check for nearby land.
Finally, both man offered sacrifice after the flood was over.
Of course, these are only some of the biggest similarities between the two stories. After more careful reading of the stories, one will surely be able to find few similarities more.

Answer:
The option that maintains the tone established in these sentences is:
D) He and his thoughts continued to wander as he smiled and breathed in the fragrant morning air.
Explanation:
Let's take one more look at the original sentences:
Few people or animals were awake at this hour. It was Peter's favorite time of day. He moved quietly down a path, noticing the sun peeking through the branches overhead and the soft, moist ground underfoot.
There is nothing in the sentences that evokes disgust, fear, or boredom. If you pay attention to the highlighted words, you will see they help create a sense of peacefulness, tranquility, and happiness. Peter is surrounded by nature, and nature is kind to him. The sun is not shining intensely, but only peeking. The ground is soft and moist. This is Peter's favorite time; he is happy as moves quietly, undisturbed. With that in mind, we can easily eliminate options A through C - which do evoke disgust, fear, and boredom - and choose option D:
Few people or animals were awake at this hour. It was Peter's favorite time of day. He moved quietly down a path, noticing the sun peeking through the branches overhead and the soft, moist ground underfoot.

In the short story "The Most Dangerous Game" how did General Zaroff have access to so much money to create his “game”?
Answer:
Explanation:
On a yacht bound for Rio de Janeiro, a passenger named Whitney points out Ship-Trap Island in the distance, a place that sailors dread and avoid. He and his friend Rainsford are big-game hunters bound for a hunting trip in the Amazon River basin. As the yacht sails through the darkness, the two men discuss whether their prey actually feels fear. Rainsford believes that the world consists only of predators and prey, although Whitney is not as certain. Noticing the jitteriness of the crew, Whitney wants to sail past the mysterious island as soon as possible. He theorizes that sailors can sense danger and that evil emanates in waves like light and sound.
Whitney then decides to turn in for the night, but Rainsford opts to smoke his pipe on the afterdeck for a while. Suddenly, he hears three gunshots in the distance and moves toward the railing of the deck to investigate. Hoisting himself onto the rail to try and get a better look, Rainsford drops his pipe, loses his balance in an attempt to catch it, and accidentally plunges into the water. His cries for help go unanswered, and the yacht quickly disappears into the night.
Rainsford decides to swim in the gunshots’ direction. He hears the screeching sound of an animal in agony and heads straight for it, until the cries end abruptly with a pistol shot. Exhausted, Rainsford reaches the rocky shore and immediately falls into a deep sleep. He wakes the next afternoon and sets off in search of food, forced to skirt the thick growth of the jungle and walk along the shore. He soon comes to a bloody, torn-up patch of vegetation where a large animal had thrashed about. He finds an empty rifle cartridge nearby.
He follows the hunter’s footprints in the growing darkness and eventually comes upon a palatial chateau at the edge of a precipice that drops steeply into the rocky ocean below. At first, Rainsford thinks the chateau is a mirage, until he opens the iron gate and knocks on the door. Ivan, a burly man with a gun, answers and refuses to help Rainsford until another man, General Zaroff, appears from inside the chateau and invites Rainsford inside.
Zaroff greets Rainsford warmly and has Ivan show him to a room where he can dress for dinner. The huge, lavish dining hall features numerous stuffed and mounted heads, trophies that Zaroff has brought back from his many hunting adventures around the world. As the two men eat borscht, a red Russian soup made of beets, Rainsford praises his host’s specimens, remarking on how dangerous it can be to hunt Cape buffalo. Zaroff states that he now hunts far more dangerous game on his island. He recounts past hunts, from his childhood in the Crimea to hunting big game around the world, but goes on to describe how the sport eventually became too easy.
Zaroff hunts, however, that he has found a new kind of animal to hunt, one with courage, cunning, and reason. Rainsford’s initial confusion turns to horror as he slowly realizes that the general now hunts human beings. Zaroff doesn’t understand Rainsford’s indignation but promises that his outrage will subside once he’s begun the hunt. Rainsford declines Zaroff’s invitation to join in the hunt that night and goes to bed. After a fitful night of insomnia and light dozing, the sound of a distant pistol shot awakens him in the early morning.
The author includes this information to- show that the majority of people are using the word "ghetto" incorrectly. explain that the current use of the word "ghetto" does not reflect the prosperity and accomplishments of ghettos. demonstrate that the word "ghetto" is now a part of pop culture and that this has changed the meaning drastically to a more unfavorable context. . explain that the current use of the word "ghetto" is meant as an insult to those who do not fit in.
This question is about the article "Is the word 'ghetto' racist?"
Answer and Explanation:
Initially the word "ghetto" was created to designate a small Italian neighborhood where Jews lived. After a long time this word was used to designate areas where a social minority is found in large numbers, in America, these places are considered a type of "slum" where many blacks, or economically weak people huddle together to build houses. This made the word take on a perjective meaning today. This is because Americans have used the word "ghetto" in a racist way to express places and behaviors associated with the black, poor and resourceless population that is outside the considerable standard admired by society.

"Now I believe it is by the laws of heaven that man must live." * Haemon says this to his father to show that he once sided with Creon, but has now reconsidered. The Sentry said this to Creon because the Sentry allowed someone to bury Polynices. Creon said this at the end of the story when he realized that he was wrong and experienced catharsis. Ismene said this to Creon when she changed her mind and insisted on dying with Antigone.
Answer:
Creon said this at the end of the story when he realized that he was wrong and experienced catharsis.
Explanation:
In the story 'Antigone', Creon decided to release Antigone from the prison and set up a tomb for Oedipus because the oracle Teiresias prophesied great suffering if Creon didn't undo his wrong doings.
After being convinced by Chorus and the prophecy foretold by Teiresias, Creon remarks the words "It is by the laws of heaven that man must live" at the end of the story to amend his misdeeds. He realized that it was wrong to take Antigone's life because it was against the laws of heaven.

To evaluate a piece of media means to
express the main idea in a clear and specific way.
disseminate the contents to a wide audience.
judge the purpose and message in a thoughtful way.
communicate the information to a group of people.
Answer:
judge the purpose and message in a thoughtful way.
Explanation:
express the main idea in a clear and specific way – this is not the right answer. Evaluation is more complex and analytical than just the main idea.
disseminate the contents to a wide audience – this is not the right answer. Evaluation of the message doesn’t concern spreading it.
judge the purpose and message in a thoughtful way – this is the correct answer. Media is used to convey a certain message through some of the tools (radio, TV, internet, etc.) Therefore, its evaluation concerns seeing the message and analyzing it, giving the judge of it at the end. This includes possible critics or praise for the message, ways of conversion, tools, etc.
communicate the information to a group of people – this is an incorrect answer. Evaluation, as said before, does not concern the spreading of the information.
Answer: Option C
(C) judge the purpose and message in a thoughtful way.

Write an essay of at least 200 words that describes a revolution you would like to lead. Include a description of what you are revolting against and what you hope to build. Lay out your plan for implementing your revolution and note the language tools you will use to bring it about.
Answer:
i would like to run a revolution against child abuse because this makes me mad it haxs nothing to do with the childs safety it has more of doing with how they are going to treat there child in the future if this type of pain is afflicted onto the other child then we have a chain reaction
Explanation:
Answer:
First of all, you need to decide what you will be fighting against. The best way to do so is to find a current political or social issue that makes you feel outraged. For example, we can talk about climate change. We can argue that climate change is a topic that requires our attention because it has long been ignored by the political elites. We also know that it is constantly getting worse and that immediate action is required.
What you hope to build needs to be positive and hopeful. For example, you might want to build a society in which everyone is educated about ecology. You might also want a political system in which sustainability is the main concern.
Finally, the language tools that you will use can be inspired by those that were successful in previous revolutions. For example, you can look at speeches from revolutionary figures such as Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Nelson Mandela or Martin Luther King Jr.

My dad was really rude to me while hes was alive, after his death while doing things that would be connected to him, (like doing things he would like to do) very weird things would happen until one day I connected the dots and quietly said "I forgive you".
