One of the greatest architectural achievements of all time is the Burj Dubai, which is located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates
(UAE). Although the towering structure is still under construction, it has already past the height of the former tallest building
in the world. The Taipei 101 in Taipei, Taiwan, held the title for about fours years before the Burj Dubai sprouted higher. Not
only is the Burj Dubai currently the world's tallest building, but also the world's tallest freestanding structure. The CN Tower
in Toronto, Canada, held that title until 2008, when the Burj Dubai eclipsed it. When finished, the Burj Dubai will stand over
160 stories high and will have taken over five years and tons of reinforced concrete, steel, and glass to complete. Upon
completion, the building will house both residential and commercial spaces including business suites, fitness facilities, hotels,
luxury pools and spas, and an observation platform. Because of its enormous size, the builders of Burj Dubai took care to
make it resistant to the effects of winds and earthquakes. The building has a special design that will help prevent a
catastrophe.

A)
anxiety
B)
disaster
fatigue.
D)
storms
Answer:

Explanation:

Lines 18–29: Explain the first reason that King gives for taking a stand on Vietnam. Is this a logical reason for his view that the war should be stopped? Why or why not?
Answer and Explanation:
Hello. Although you have not presented the text to which this question refers, we can see, through the context of the question, that you are referring to Martin Luther King's speech against the Vietnam War.
In this speech, King presents seven reasons why the Vietnam War should be ended. Among these reasons, the first states that the war must be ended, because it harms American families that are poor. He says that this is because the American government donated financial aid to the country's poor families and that aid was the only means of survival for these people. However, with the expenses of the war, the government had to cut spending and one of those expenses was financial aid to poor families, that is, King claimed that the war promoted the spending of money that would be better used if it was used to help Americans. This reason is very logical because it is a fact, proven by evidence and supporting details, in addition to pointing out a very realistic and identifiable social situation.

How does Lenina react to the environment and people at the Reservation? What does the fact that she condemns it as "queer" tell you about her conditioning?
Answer:
She saw the people of the reserve with disgust and is uncomfortable and disgusted by everything she is seeing, mainly because of the amount of garbage and flies. From inside the reserve she can see the buildings in Malpais and condemns them as "queer", since they seem totally out of place from where she is.
Explanation:
This question is about "Brave New World" a novel about a futuristic society completely modified and that presents the equality between all classes through a constant process of manipulation and limitation. In this book, we meet the character Lenina, who is a member of this futuristic society and who is very well established in the way of life that society establishes. One day Lenina is taken to Malpais, a reserve of people who live completely contrary to the rules of the society to which Lenina is a member. In Malpais people live without any control and behave in a primitive and wild way.
Lenina thinks Malpais is strange, filthy and disgusting. She sees the buildings as "queer" without technology, stinky and unpleasant. This is also her thinking about people and the bucolic environment. She holds this view for a long time, because she was taught and conditioned to believe that only the way she lived was the right one.

Compare and contrast the teacher and the student in, 'The Last Lesson', highlighting the changes observed in their character.
Answer:
Find the comparison below.
Explanation:
In 'The Last Lesson', by Alphonse Daudet, the student in the story was initially described as an unserious student who did not really pay attention in class. He was distracted by play and a lot of other inconsequential things. The teacher was also described at the onset as a strict instructor who chided his students when they failed at something.
On learning that French will no longer be taught in schools, the teacher was overcome with so much guilt as much as the student who blamed himself for not taking his studies seriously. The teacher regretted sending the student on holidays when he wanted to go fishing while the student regretted not putting in more efforts to study and learn French.

Write a summary about the advantages and disadvantages of having a tram system in a city.
Your summary should be about 80 words long.you should use your own words as far as possible.
(Please answer this fast I’m going yo fail)
Answer:
A tram is a vehicle that runs on tracks, such as a train or a metro. Compared to the train, the requirements that the vehicles and infrastructure must meet are lower. In many cases the rails are on the public road, so that the tram runs between the other traffic. This is especially common with the "city tram", which provides public transport within a municipality or conurbation. Trams (unlike other rail vehicles) are equipped with direction indicators and brake lights for street driving.
Thus, as a positive aspect, the tram adds a method of public transport to cities, which makes life easier for citizens, who do not necessarily have to depend on their private cars to move around the city. However, on the negative side, trams can cause traffic problems such as traffic jams or accidents, since they circulate on the street like other cars.
When and where does “Manuel and the Magic Fox” take place? Cite specific evidence from the story or make inferences drawn from the text to support your answer.

He had lingered at the Navajo reservation for too long, in thrall to his uncle’s tales, and now he hurried back home, to the Pueblo, the crisp April air invigorating his every step."
