The Alexandrian scholar-poet Callimachus a. rejected poetry as unequal to scholarly work. b. rejected Greek philosophy as unequal to the epics of Homer. c. urged poets to write long epic works to rival Homer. d. urged his fellow poets to write short, finely crafted works rather than epics.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is D.                                            

Explanation:

He was at loggerheads with Apollonius of Rhodes which led to a personal feud, Callimachus. So it is not unusual for both poets to be mentioned alongside each other.

He believed in the viability of the Homeric tradition (in modified form) for epic poetry.

Cheers!

Write three to five sentences explaining any strategies
you used and what new understanding you gained from
the text as a result of reading it aloud.​

Answers

Answer:

When I read it silently, I tend to skip some words and minor details of the passage, but still understand the picture of what is happening in the passage.

When I read it loud, I used a simple strategy, I had to stop at every punctuation, pronounce each word properly, and even re-read some of the text to make sure I understand each and every detail about the passage. Reading out loud made it easier for me to comprehend, to pay more attention, and even to remember the details of the passage afterwards.

Answer:

When I read silently, I read quickly and got the big picture of what was happening in the passage. When I read aloud the first time, I read slower, trying to pronounce the words correctly and chunking words together for meaning. When I read aloud, I was able to pay more attention to clues for tone. I read with better pacing and more expression, which helped me understand what the characters were feeling.

The government of Ghana must lift the ban on social gathering with respect to

religious activities. Argue for or against this motion.

Answers

ANSWER:

I wish to argue against this motion. Because at this time of pandemic, social distancing is a key of staying safe and reducing the spread of the Corona virus. If government should ban all social gathering activities in Ghana, it has been done inline with the WHO directives, that should be followed if we all will win this invisible enemy (Corona virus). If social gathering is still allowed, people will likely not maintain a social distancing, and this will cause a spike in the spread of the virus. This is why it is important that government bans social gathering, so as to help reduce the spread of the disease.

Religious activities should not divert our attention of staying safe, as we obey the directives of the government, because the key law in all true religion is obedience, and this is the time the government seeks everyone to abide by such obedience and maintain social distancing, by avoiding social gathering.

STORIES OF USEFUL INVENTIONS, excerpt By S. E. Forman 1911 THE MATCH There never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match. Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by nature—by a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble. In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. How does the author develop the idea that humanity's early fire-starting tools may have been dangerous?

What is tone?In literature, tone refers to the way an author or a narrator approaches a certain topic, that is, his attitude towards it.

What is the tone in the passage?In the passage, we find a demanding tone. The person speaking repeats the word "progress" and says they all know what needs to be done.Phrases such as "brick by brick" and "block by block" are used to give this impression of working nonstop, of having to work because there is no other choice.With that in mind, we can conclude that the tone is demanding.

Read the excerpt from Catching Sun Rays. Governments and power companies know that solar power is good, so they are also building big solar power plants to keep up with demand. The best place to do that is the Mojave Desert, which covers parts of Arizona, California, Nevada, and Utah. The area gets twice as much sunlight as other parts of the United States. The Mojave is home to the largest solar power installation in the world. Based on the excerpt, which would a business person most likely include in an action plan for building a new solar power plant? finding out the best place to build a solar power plant. finding out the government's opinion of solar power. visiting the solar power installation in the Mojave Desert. visiting the Mojave Desert to see how much sunlight it gets.

Answers

Answer: finding out the best place to build a solar power plant.

Explanation:

The excerpt has already established that governments are aware of the benefits of solar power and that the Mojave desert is the best place in the United States to build a solar power installation. But there´s already one there, actually the largest one in the world. To build a new solar power plant, the Mojave Desert could be a possible location, but there´s no need to visit it to know that. Furthermore, other locations, even abroad,  could be considered based on how much sunlight they get.

d impossible to according to scientific theory's

Answers

Answer:

The idea of controlling humans through biological engineering is an example of

B) dystopian

context with an extreme form of state control. Such a context fits in the genre of science fiction because

B) depends on technology to create the world.

Explanation:

Dystopian literature came as a response to utopian fiction. While a utopia concerns the perfect world, dystopian settings present lack of humanity, excessive control and violence, often justified by the government as being the means to achieve the greater good. That is the type of reality presented in "Brave New World". Human beings are no longer free to choose. They are no longer free to even be born. They are created in labs, where their function in life is already predetermined. Some are created to be highly intelligent while others are meant to be slow in order to perform menial jobs.

This is a perfect fit for the science-fiction genre. This type of genre relies heavily in the possible destructive influence of technology over our lives. The story is often set in the future, when a much more advanced society depends completely on technology to function and survive. In "Brave New World", control comes through technology. It is the means to create as well as destroy life.

What's the science behind why your brain will not allow you to forget a strong musical memory even when we grow old? Why the song "I'm not racist" by Joyner Lucas will trigger the event that it it related to.

A) Music and memory are very cohesive.

Psychologies say the reason for this is because Music triggers lots of nerves in many areas of the brain. The areas according to research that is usually triggered when we listen to music are

the auditory region;the Motor region andthe limbic nerves or region. The limbic region is most associated with our emotions. Emotions are strongly related to memory recall.

The event triggers heated discussion regarding many other similar events where a particular kind of people have been consistently treated like they were sub-human without any serious repercussion to the perpetrators the inhumane acts.

The song by Joyner using rhymes, and poetry cleverly addresses the issues and preaches understanding and change of mindset.

But he is so small that nobody thinks of him, and so he does more harm to people.
