Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Ten beats (syllables) a line, iambic pentameter

1. What is the main idea in High Incomes Don't Bring You Happiness"||

Answers

Answer:

The main idea that the author Caitlin Kenney seems to address in this essay seems to be that even though money has no direct relationship with the level of happiness of a person, it has some influence, to a certain extent, of making the person believe that her life is much better than that of the ones poorer than her.

Explanation:

In the study of how incomes have any impact on the overall happiness of a person, Caitlin Kenney's "High Incomes Don't Bring You Happiness" delves into what it is that makes money an important factor of our lives and do they have any connection with how people feel about their lives.

Starting the essay with the question "How much do you think it would take to make you happy?" the author implores into the issue of how high-income groups seem to be relatively happier than the ones in the lower-income groups. Referencing to the study by psychologist Daniel Kahneman and economist Angus Deaton, the study further reveals how certain amounts of income seem to have a lighter effect on people. But overall, even though money has no direct connection with how happy a person is, there is still some effect it has, like influencing people to believe that the life they live is much better than the ones lived by the poorer people.

Answer:

The main idea of the text is that money does not play an important role in the emotional well-being of people.

Explanation:

"High Incomes Don't Bring You Happiness" is an article written by Caitlin Kenney. The article is based on the answers of psychologist Daniel Kahneman and economist Angus Deaton, who provides an insight on how much money or high salary plays a role in making a person happy.

According to the study, researchers have found that people's emotional well-being actually decreases when a person begins to earn more than $75,000 per annum. The researchers says that it is important to have a balance between emotional well-being and life evaluation, but when a person's income is equal or above $75,000 per annum, than their emotional well-being decreases. So, to be happy money is not a vital part but how we define happiness.

So, the correct answer would be that money does not play a major role in emotional well-being of people.

Answers

Answer:

softly and sweetly discusses the problems they have with humans with her fellow gods

Explanation:

The beautiful goddess Minerva shows her true nature by discussing the problems of Odysseus with her fellow gods in the Gods In Council at the house of Olympian Jove.

Her father began speaking in the council about Aegisthus who had been killed by Agammenon's son Orestes in revenge for making love with Agammenon's wife and killing Agammenon.

Minerva softly and swiftly steers conversation towards Odysseus and how they could help him get home, away from the clutches of the daughter of the magician Atlas who looks after the bottom of the ocean and seeks to make Odysseus forget his home.

Read the excerpt from "Broken Chain."

His mother clipped coupons from magazines and newspapers, kept a vegetable garden in the summer, and shopped at Penney’s and K-Mart. Their family ate a lot of frijoles, which was OK because nothing else tasted so good, though one time Alfonso had Chinese pot stickers and thought they were the next best food in the world.

Why does Soto most likely include this characterization of Alfonso’s mother in the story?

to show that she uses a variety of foods when she cooks for her family
to support the idea that the family does not have money to spend on braces
to show what a close relationship Alfonso has with his mother
to support the idea that Alfonso does not always appreciate his family

Answers

Answer:

D). To support the idea that Alfonso does not always appreciate his family.

Explanation:

Characterization is elucidated as the process through which the authors reveal the personality(appearance and traits) of a character. It assists the readers to understand a character and relate him/her to the series of events effectively.

In the given excerpt, Soto involves characterization of Alfonso's mother through various descriptions like 'his mother clipped coupons, kept a vegetable garden, shopped at Penney's' to reinforce the idea that Alfonso does not always appreciate his family. But he also critiques them the other times as he valued the outer beauty or appearance more than the inner purity of soul. Thus, this instance substantiates this claim yet he later realizes when breaks the chain of his bike that 'all that matters is the inner beauty.' Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

Answers

Answer:

The reason the Kiowas hung a buffalo hide upon the medicine tree in order to fulfill their annual rites was because there were no buffalos available for them to use.

Explanation:

The Kiowas carry out an annual rite known as the Sun Dance. During the rites, they used a buffalo. They hang the head of a buffalo on a medicine tree.

But during the 1887 Sun Dance rite which was the last Sun Dance Kiowa had, they didn't find any buffalos to consummate their rites. Therefore, they hung an old hide skin on the sacred tree.

Choose four sounds that are members of a natural class of English phonemes, and explain their shared features in square brackets.

Answers

Answer:

1. /p/ [voiceless stops]

2. /t/ [voiceless stops]

3. /k/ [voiceless stops]

 /p/, /t/, /k/ are consonant sounds which have voiceless stops. These sounds are also aspirated at the beginning of words- i.e when pronounced, there is usually a forceful expulsion of air in words like "top", "tap", "kill", etc.

When the sounds are used at the end of words or joined with some consonants, they are not aspirated e.g drop, stop, etc.

4. /m/ [nasal stops]

When pronouncing nasal stops, the velum usually lowers to allow a free flow of air from the nose.

Examples of words that have nasal stops are:

"mouth", "mud", etc.

"Nikki Giovanni's real name is Yolande Cornelia. Most poets do not change their name. Why might she have done so? How does using the nom de plume of Nikki Giovanni add to her poetry?"

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Her real name - Yolande Cornelia

Her pen name - Nikki Giovanni

(A) Why might Yolande have changed her name to a non de plume?

She might have adopted the nom de plume "Nikki Giovanni" because in her childhood, "Nikki" was her sister's pet name for her. Also, Giovanni was one of her father's names.

(B) How the non de plume adds to her poetry:

- It protects her from political prejudice

- It conceals her identity, to a good extent. She was a powerful writer and she wrote on sensitive topics so the use of a pen name helped continue her poetry, without obstructions from those would want to trace her from the name.

- It serves as a business name for her. A business is an entity on its own. It can sue and be sued. It stands separate from the person or owner

B. These amendments help clarify the fifth article of the Constitution.
C. These amendments are legal according to the fifth article of the

D. These amendments replace the original fifth article of the
Constitution

Answers

The correct answer is C. These amendments are legal according to the fifth article of the  Constitution

Explanation:

The meaning of the word "pursuant" is "in conformity with". This means in the case of "pursuant to the fifth Article of the original Constitution" this means in conformity to the fifth article in the constitution it is possible to ratify and add new articles and amendments. This is accurate because the fifth article establishes the Constitution is not exclusively limited to the articles of the original constitution but through the amendment mechanism, it is possible to change previous articles or add new ones. Thus, the phrase means "These amendments are legal according to the fifth article of the  Constitution".
