Answer 1

Answer:

Little is to say to Floyd's friends and family in such a painful moment. However, I do believe that his death has had a powerful impact and them knowing that it might be able to change the world as we know it, could provide them some comfort.

Explanation:

The police violence against George Floyd is no different from any other African American experience with the police, and it saddens me that only because this case became filmed and viral online, is that people are now paying attention.

The protests feel like an eruption that could not be avoided, because impunity has gone too far, and people are rightfully angry. And the police brutality against those protesting is only one more proof of that rightfulness.  

I feel that at this point is time to listen to African Americans and make sure that governmental policies are applied to fix the inherent racism in our society, not only by the police but also in every microaggression we all reproduce in our everyday lives.

I´m scared that these events may not be enough, that eventually the media will stop focusing on this issue. It´s on every one of us to keep this conversation going, to make sure policies are changed, to vote for those who believe in equality, and to revise our own behaviors to ensure change happens.

Consonance is the literary device in which the consonant sound is repeated in the closely connected words in a sentence. The consonant sounds are similar or equivalent. Their vowel sound differs.

Assonance is the repetition of the vowel sound in the words written in a sentence.

Rhyme is the repetition of similar sounds in the stressed syllables of the last word in the sentence.

The evidence of enslaved people’s revolt and fight for freedom is

Answers

Answer:

A. anecdotal, because it tells a narrative about enslaved people taking action for basic human rights.

Explanation:

Passage:

The seeds for this system were sown in 1823 in the sugar colony of British Guiana—now Guyana—where John Gladstone, father of the future British prime minister William Gladstone, owned over a thousand slaves. John Smith, a young and idealistic English preacher who had recently come to the area, was becoming popular with those slaves. His inspiring sermons retold the story of Moses leading the Jews out of Egypt and to freedom. The sugar workers listened and understood: Smith was speaking not about the Bible, but about the present. That summer, after hearing one of Smith’s sermons, over three thousand slaves grabbed their machetes, their long poles, and rose up against their masters. The governor of the colony rushed toward the burning plantations, where he met a group of armed slaves, and asked them what they wanted.

"Our rights," came the reply. Here was Haiti—and for that matter America and France—all over again. The slaves insisted they were not property; like the Jews in Egypt, they were God's children, who were owed their basic human rights.

This is a narrative.

Penn commits a tort while acting in the interest of her undisclosed principal. Who is responsible or liable? Principal and agent Principal only Agent only

Answers

Answer:

Principal Only.

Explanation:

The word 'tort' is borrowed from Latin word 'tortum' which means 'wrong, or injustice.' Thus, the word tort means to cause an injury or harm to someone or someone's property.

Tort is committed in many ways. 'Agency Relationship Liability Tort' is the type of tort in which a principal and an agent is required. In such torts, a principal will be held responsible directly in cases when he fails to supervise his agent, when he directly commands his agent to commit tort, or when he neglects to check the background of the agent while hiring.

In the given case, the unnamed principal will be held directly responsible for guiding Penn to commit tort. Because Penn committed tort in the interest of her undisclosed principal.

Thus the correct answer is 'Principal Only.'

Which sentence best contributes to the mood of hopelessness in the excerpt?

Answers

Answer:

The phrases- “A leap from the air” and “ordinarily these problems” are the key phrases here to understand how it contributes to the mood of hopelessness in the excerpt. ( read more below  )

Explanation:

The phrases- “A leap from the air” and “ordinarily these problems” are the key phrases here to understand how it contributes to the mood of hopelessness in the excerpt. The former presents a situation that is not possible. There’s no hold in air, and to leap from it is implying that they were performing the impossible at the top of each wave, which presented such problems “ordinarily.” The understated way in which these are mentioned intensifies the hopelessness of the situation. And the fact that the boat had been compared to a horse that had to “leap again” over a high fence facilitates the image that this statement paints.

According to the author, the biological link between love and anger is found in the Prefrontal Cortex. This part of the brains neural system, which is responsible for rage, shares proximity with the cranial centers that anticipate rewards. The author also posits that winning a beloved one is interpreted as a type of reward by the brain.

The brain, as posited, responds with frustration when love as a stimulus is withdrawn from it. This observation is called the "Frustration-Aggression Hypothesis".

Which paragraph in the story contains the falling action in the plot?
The Three Sisters and the Troll
In the deepest part of the forest lived a little old man and his three daughters. The oldest daughter loved to read; the middle daughter loved to
sew; and the youngest daughter loved to explore the woods around their cottage.
One day, the oldest daughter asked her father for a new book to read. The middle daughter asked for thread. The youngest daughter asked for
a basket to carry the things she found on her explorations. The father agreed to walk into town to buy the things that his daughters needed. He
put on his cloak and his hat, kissed each daughter on the forehead, and told them to stay inside. Before leaving, he reminded them not to
answer the door to strangers.
A hungry troll watched as the father left. As soon as he was out of sight, the troll knocked on the door. The sisters thought it was their father
returning for something he forgot. They opened the door and came face-to-face with the troll. The troll lunged at the girls and tied them
together. Then he filled a pot with water and started adding herbs and vegetables stored in the cottage. He was going to cook the girls into a
stew. As he threw in the last vegetable, the water started to boil.
The oldest girl whispered to her sisters that she had a plan. She had read that onions could freeze a troll in his tracks. She tricked the trollinto
taking an onion from the cupboard by saying it was a delicious yellow apple. He greedily grabbed it and was frozen in place. The middle sister
figured out how to untie the ropes around them. She used them to sew the troll into a trap.
When their father returned, he was surprised to see the frozen troll sitting in the room. The youngest sister led them to a small cave far from
their cottage, where they could leave the troll. The girls and their father returned home to enjoy their new books, new thread, and new basket.
And the troll never bothered them again.
