Doctor Pascal
by Emile Zola

In the heat of the glowing July afternoon, the room, with blinds carefully closed, was full of a great calm. From the three windows, through the cracks of the old wooden shutters, came only a few scattered sunbeams which, in the midst of the obscurity, made a soft brightness that bathed surrounding objects in a diffused and tender light. It was cool here in comparison with the overpowering heat that was felt outside, under the fierce rays of the sun that blazed upon the front of the house.

Standing before the press which faced the windows, Dr. Pascal was looking for a paper that he had come in search of. With doors wide open, this immense press of carved oak, adorned with strong and handsome mountings of metal, dating from the last century, displayed within its capacious depths an extraordinary collection of papers and manuscripts of all sorts, piled up in confusion and filling every shelf to overflowing. For more than thirty years the doctor had thrown into it every page he wrote, from brief notes to the complete texts of his great works on heredity. Thus it was that his searches here were not always easy. He rummaged patiently among the papers, and when he at last found the one he was looking for, he smiled.

For an instant longer he remained near the bookcase, reading the note by a golden sunbeam that came to him from the middle window. He himself, in this dawnlike light, appeared, with his snow-white hair and beard, strong and vigorous; although he was near sixty, his color was so fresh, his features were so finely cut, his eyes were still so clear, and he had so youthful an air that one might have taken him, in his close-fitting, maroon velvet jacket, for a young man with powdered hair.

Without the information provided by the second paragraph, the reader might draw which of these conclusions about Dr. Pascal? (5 points)

PLZ HURRY ILL GIVE U BRANILEST In the space below, explain the steps one should take in choosing a research topic. Then, give an example of an effective research topic and explain why it is effective. Your answer should be between 45-50 words.

Answers

Answer: Here's one strategy for developing a research topic once you have a broad topic in mind:

   Background research will help you develop your topic and hone or change it in more appropriate ways. Knowing more about your topic's background can only help you develop a more effective topic, and therefore, research paper.

   Brainstorm concepts. Once you think of a broad topic that interests you, try to brainstorm all of the words or concepts you can that might be related to that topic (and write them down!). For example, if your topic is "polar bears," you might think of the following words and topics in association: ice, cubs, pollution, hunting, diet, climate change, and environmental icon.

   Develop a research question. Once you have come up with a broad topic and done some background research, you may want to develop a research question, or a question you're going to answer in your paper by doing more, in-depth research.

   What's your general approach to the topic? Think about some general approaches that may help you further develop your topic: use a historical angle by focusing on a particular time period; a geographical angle, focusing on a particular part of the world; or a sociological angle, focusing on a particular group of people.

   Start doing some exploratory, in-depth research. As you do more in-depth research, like looking for scholarly articles, books, and other sources to include in your paper, you can and probably will modify or refine your topic based on what you find.

   Research is a dynamic process. Don't be afraid to discover new things and modify or refine your topic.

The topic development process will help you to develop your thesis, which is essentially your proposed answer to your research question. You will then be ready to use the sources you've found, and find more sources in order to support that thesis, or to answer your research question.

Here's an example of how the topic development process above can lead you to a thesis:

What does the symbolism of the ice cream truck tell the reader about the characters in the passage?
O 1. Eve and Nick long to have the relaxed summer freedom that the ice cream truck represents.
O 2. Eve and Nick want to please their grandfather by developing the close bond that the ice cream truck represents.
3. Eve disapproves of their grandfather's indulgence of Nick, which is represented by the ice cream truck.
4. Nick loses control when he hears the ice cream truck, which represents his lack of consideration for others.

Answers

Answer:2

Explanation:

The principle of symbolism holds that some things stand in for other things. That is to say, we can look at something, like the colour red, and determine that it signifies something other than the colour red itself, such passion, love, or devotion.

What is Symbolism ?

Alternately, there could be infidelity. Red can also stand in for blood. Additionally, it might indicate to halt as you approach a traffic light. It might represent communism. In other words, you can interpret it whatever you like. It implies everything, to put it another way.

Or, it means nothing because, even if you can give it a symbolic interpretation, it has no intrinsic value and no universally understood, unchanging meaning. It is not unique in any way.that marks it as a representation of a specific idea.

So the question is, are there common symbols that convey shared ideas? We might discuss how white is a representation of innocence, life, and purity. That, however, would be a very cursory study of the literature.

Based on the meaning of the prefix mis-, meaning "not", what can you conclude is the definition of the underlined word in the following sentence?

She mistrusted the report she read on the Internet.

a did not trust
b trusted too much
c wanted to trust
d trusted with good reason

Answers

Answer:

As mis- means "not", "mistrusted" means "not trusted", which is A.

Answer: The answer would be A) did not trust.

Explanation: The reason for this is if you break up the word into "mis- " and "trusted" you know from the question that the prefix mis- means "not". Therefore if you add the prefix mis- to the word "trusted" it would mean that something is not trusted.

In this sense, the word "bound" was presented in the denotative sense, that is, in the real sense presented in the dictionary. This sense is the same as the word "trapped" and shows how the colonies were completely trapped and dominated by the British.

Answer:

C. The Mandarin decides to gather the stone-masons and temple builders to create a new wall that will defeat Kwan-Si's wall​.

Explanation:

Ray Bradbury's short story "The Golden Kite, The Silver Wind," tells the allegorical tale of how each and every element of human life is dependent on the other. The story tells of unity, brotherhood, life, struggle, envy, the good of all things, etc.

When the Mandarin learned of the new wall of Kwan-Si that he followed the advice of his daughter and build a new wall. He instructed his stone-masons, and temple builders to construct a wall that will 'defeat' any shape that the town of Kwan-Si has. So, the Mandarin's actions of following his daughter's suggestions and ordering the builders to build a new wall help set the plot for the next mission.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
