To renounce liberty is to renounce being a man, to surrender the rights of humanity and even its duties. For him who renounces everything no indemnity is possible. Such a renunciation is incompatible with man's nature; to remove all liberty from his will is to remove all morality from his acts. Finally, it is an empty and contradictory convention that sets up, on the one side, absolute authority, and, on the other, unlimited obedience.

–The Social Contract,
Jean-Jacques Rousseau


What is one major topic of this excerpt from the document?

the value of nature
the importance of equality
the freedom of individuals
the need for sacrifice

Answers

Answer:

One major topic of the excerpt is:

C. the freedom of individuals.

Explanation:

Jean Jacques Rousseau was a philosopher and political theorist born in Geneva in 1712. His work "The Social Contract" was first published in 1762.

As we can see in the excerpt, one major team is the freedom of individuals. Rousseau explains that freedom is a premise of humanity, and that no individual should give his freedom away completely. However, in "The Social Contract", he does defend the idea that part of one's freedom should be surrendered for the welfare of the community. That is the social contract we establish with our government or the police, for example. I give away part of my freedom when I give someone else (the police) the right to arrest me. Yet, I do it so that myself and others may be protected when or if necessary.

Answers

Answer: Sonia's description of her impractical plans shows that she is more of a dreamer than a doer.

Explanation:

From the story, Sonia said that she was going to be a writer. She said that all she needed to do was to finish high school, go to college, and then get a job of some kind - something that would give her a source of income.

The above statement that "something that would give her a source of income" shows that she doesn't really have a plan to become a writer.

Then, she also said that she wasn't going to give up soccer practice and that as long as her friends didn't invite her to go out partying, she would write the great American novel. This means that if she's invited to party, she won't become a writer.

Therefore, the statement that explains how the plot of the story helps develop the main character is that Sonia's description of her impractical plans shows that she is more of a dreamer than a doer.

What does Harrison Bergeron do that angers the government?

Answers

Answer: He identifies himself as better than others.

Explanation:

Set in the year 2081, "Harrison Bergeron" (1961), by Kurt Vonnegut, first describes how Harrison Bergeron, a 14-year-old boy, is taken away by the government for having an above-average intelligence and looks, something that is prohibited in this dystopian society where everybody must be equal, meaning that those with above-average features are forced to limit their capacities through added handicaps, such as a radio implanted in people´s ears to hinder their thought process.

However, Harrison being taken is not a sign of the government being angry at him, because it´s a normal situation in this context. It´s when he escapes and declares himself Emperor, because he considers himself better than the rest, that the government gets angry, so the Handicapper General, Diana Moon Glampers, kills him.

An irrepressible tremor gradually pervaded my frame; and, at length, there sat upon my very heart an incubus of utterly causeless alarm. Shaking this off with a gasp and a struggle, I uplifted myself upon the pillows, and, peering earnestly within the intense darkness of the chamber, hearkened – I know not why, except that an instinctive spirit prompted me – to certain low and indefinite sounds which came, through the pauses of the storm, at long intervals, I knew not whence. Overpowered by an intense sentiment of horror, unaccountable yet unendurable, I threw on my clothes with haste (for I felt that I should sleep no more during the night), and endeavored to arouse myself from the pitiable condition into which I had fallen, by pacing rapidly to and fro through the apartment. —“The Fall of the House of Usher,” Edgar Allan Poe Which detail in the passage changes the mood from unease to horror? “intense darkness” “a gasp” “an irrepressible tremor” “certain low and indefinite sounds”

Answer:

D: certain low and indefinite sounds

Explanation:

I just did the assignment on EDGE2020 and it's 200% correct!  

Also, heart and rate if you found this answer helpful!! :) (P.S It makes me feel good to know I helped someone today!!)  :)  

The given detail in the passage that shows the changes of the mood from unease to horror is that it has certain low and indefinite sounds. Hence, Option D is correct.

What is an indefinite sound?

The term indefinite sound can also be called an indefinite pitch. A pitch or a sound is something that a listener listens to and identifies or judges what the sound is all about. For a better and clear understanding of the pitch, it is very important that the statement is clearly pronounced. In the case of an indefinite sound or indefinite pitch, the listener founds it quite difficult or next to impossible to identify it.

Sounds or the pitches that are indefinite, there is the absenteeism of the harmonic spectra or a characteristic known as inharmonicity. There are some indefinite pitch instruments also available like a bass drum and snare. drum, cymbals, triangle, tambourine, and many more.

Thus, Option D is correct.

Which option is an example of deductive reasoning?

Answers

Answer:

A. All applicants must pass a test. Claire is an applicant, so she must pass a test.

Explanation:

Deductive reasoning can be defined as a type of logical reasoning that typically involves drawing conclusions from one or more premises (factual statements) that are assumed to be true generally.

Basically, deductive reasoning starts with a general statement, idea or hypothesis (All applicants must pass a test; Claire is an applicant.) and reaches a specific logical conclusion (so she must pass a test.).

Hence, the option which is an example of deductive reasoning is; All applicants must pass a test. Claire is an applicant, so she must pass a test.

In conclusion, deductive reasoning is highly based on drawing an inference and reaching a logical conclusion from one or more premises. An inference is an act or process which typically involves a person deducing the meaning or message from something through induction.

Answer:

A. All applicants must pass a test. Claire is an applicant, so she must pass a test.

READING COMPREHENSION PASSAGES From Outer Space FoxNews.com reports that Dr. Richard B. Hoover, an astrobiologist at NASA, believes that he has found the fossils of bacteria in meteorites. In other words, he claims to have found traces of life from outer space. Not surprisingly, his claim is controversial; many scientists do not accept that Dr. Hoover has come to the correct conclusion from what he has observed. Therefore, he has invited over 5,000 scientists to review his work and to publish their comments. 1. Bacteria are a _______. a. group of scientists b. place where meteors come from c. kind of restaurant d. form of life 2. When something is controversial, people _______. a. get sick from it b. believe it is ancient and extremely rare c. have strong disagreements about it d. brush their teeth with it 3. Dr. Hoover seems confident that his research will be proven correct because _______. a. he is named after a vacuum cleaner b. he has invited many scientists to look closely at his work c. he works for NASA d. he gets a rash when he touches meteorites 4. Based on the reading selection, which statement is true? a. No one believes that Dr. Hoover has made an important discovery. b. Astrobiologists are smarter than other scientists. c. Dr. Hoover believes he has found fossils of bacteria. d. Dr. Hoover did his work without using a microscope.

Answers

Answer:

1. d. form of life

Bacteria are a form of life and if it is found that they are fossilized on meteors then it could mean that there is life in outer space because that would be where the bacteria came from.

2. c. have strong disagreements about it.

A controversial topic is one that not everybody believes and so have disagreements about with some believing it and others disagreeing with it.

3. b. he has invited many scientists to look closely at his work.

If the scientists that Dr. Hoover invites, reviews his work and finds it to be accurate then his research would be proven correct because scientists are experts giving their expert opinions would serve as enough proof of truth.

4. c. Dr. Hoover believes he has found fossils of bacteria.

The reading shows that Dr. Hoover believes that he has indeed found fossils of bacteria and that these fossils come from outer space.
