what caused Mr. Melbourne's life to take a turn for the worse?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Mr. Medbourne had invested in a risky business which led to his loss, resulting in his health deteriorating.

Explanation:

Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Dr. Heidegger's Experiment" revolves around the mythological "fountain of youth" that can bring back the years from a person's past. The tale follows four friends of the scientist and their experience being young again and their greed at trying to regain the lost years, despite the warnings from their scientist friend.

Mr. Medbourne is one of the four friends that were invited by Dr. Heidegger to be a part of his experiment with the water from "the Fountain of Youth". And like the narrator stated, Mr. Medbourne "had been a prosperous merchant, but had lost his all by a frantic speculation, and was now little better than a mendicant." His decision to invest in a risky business led to the detriment in his health.

Explanation:

The difference between responding to life as a Victim or a Creator is how we choose to use our
energy.
True

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Sociology can be defined as a social science that deals with the study of the socio-cultural interaction of humans with respect to the structure, functioning and development of their society.

The main purpose of sociology is to develop and enhance human knowledge or understanding of important socio-cultural processes through the gathering and analysis of all aspects of the social life of the people living in a society.

A victim can be defined as an individual or person that is at the receiving end of an unfortunate circumstance (bad events) in life and as such may be regarded as a pessimist.

A creator can be defined as an individual or person that believes there exist an option that would always lead him or her to successfully achieving his or her goal, aim, aspiration, dream, etc. Thus, a creator is an optimistic individual who uses the power of wise choices while making creator choices everytime in life.

In this context, the difference between responding to life as a victim (who is an underachiever) or a Creator (who excel in his or her endeavor) is how we choose to use our energy.

This ultimately implies that, a victim would most likely use his or her energy negatively while a creator would positively use his energy to always make wise choices in life.

Answers

Answer:

Because he wants to keep people under his rule and within the ideology he wants to impose.

Explanation:

Radio Mullah is an Islamic extremist, cited many times in the book "I am Malala" as one of the main harbingers of Taliban rule in Afghanistan. Malala claims that Radio Mullah had a radio show, where he presented highly conservative and extremist, unscientific, oppressive and incorrect concepts. He was strongly against education, especially for women, and was even capable of bombing schools and killing people who took a stand against him.

He knew that fighting education was the main weapon for him to be able to control the population and make everyone follow their will, because the lack of education made people believe in everything they heard and did not have the ability to question and opine against wrong things. As such, Radio Mullah knew that a population without eucation was easily manipulated and that was his goal.

"I am Malala" is the book that tells the story of Malala, the Muslim girl who fought the Taliban for the right to study.

Read this passage from “To Build a Fire.” Knowing how the story ends, what literary element or device is the author using in this passage?

When it is seventy-five below zero, a man must not fail in his first attempt to build a fire—that is, if his feet are wet. If his feet are dry, and he fails, he can run along the trail for half a mile and restore his circulation. But the circulation of wet and freezing feet cannot be restored by running when it is seventy-five below. No matter how fast he runs, the wet feet will freeze the harder.
All this the man knew. The old-timer on Sulphur Creek had told him about it the previous fall, and now he was appreciating the advice.

Answers

Answer:

Foreshadowing

Explanation:

Foreshadowing is a literary technique whereby an author provides a hint of what is to happen later in the story. At the end of the story, "To Build a Fire," the man who sojourned in the Yukon trail died in the cold. Foreshadowing occurred earlier in the passage when the old-timer on Sulphur Creek gave the advice to travel with a partner. It was as if he knew in advance that the man could die from the cold if circulation was not restored when the temperature was seventy-five below. Unfortunately, when the man was being frozen by the cold, he recalled that advice.

D. mya, humiliated, returns the jewelry and never speaks to kiki again.

Answers

Answer:

C. Though Kiki misses Mya greatly, she feels that telling the truth was the right choice.

Explanation:

The above is the part of the passage that is most clearly the conclusion.

This is true because it ended with a lesson for every reader which can be deduced as the story progressed.

Mya refused to return the money even after Kiki begged her to do so. So, Kiki made the choice of telling the truth even if it will result to Mya not speaking with her.

The above answer is most clearly the conclusion because it brought the story to an end by revealing the major lesson that the story was trying to pass across.
