What does the following passage (paragraph 1) mainly reveal?
There is nothing to cook with, hence I have nothing to do, and, therefore, have time to write. Such days will come here that we have to see our
wounded men fed with dry bread and poor coffee; and I can tell you it is hard to witness some cursing for food, some praying for it. It seems to b
no one's fault but will happen.
A. Hancock has been too busy to write.
B. The wounded men are suffering further because of a lack of food.
C. Hancock wishes she had a goose to roast for the infirm.
D. Hancock admires the men who pray for food, rather than curse for it.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: B. The wounded men are suffering further because of a lack of food.

Explanation:

Hancock, who is the speaker in this passage, notes that some days they will have nothing to cook with such that they have to feed their men with dry bread and poor coffee instead of proper food.

These men were already wounded and so were already suffering. A lack of food will make them suffer even more. This is why Hancock notes that some will curse and some will pray because that is how they will react to the further suffering.

Perhaps you wanted pizza for dinner, but were out voted by the rest of the family who wanted chili. This is similar to what happens in a community. One person has to give up a right for the good of the group. Sometimes citizens' duties and rights conflict with each other. A good example is a public protest. People have the right to meet in groups and share ideas. However, a protest can disrupt traffic or other normal activities. A city must provide extra police protection to keep people safe. Therefore, the city has the right to require permission in advance for a protest. Government must make laws to balance the rights of individuals and different groups of people.

What does the wolf in this story from Aesop’s Fables symbolize? The Boy Who Cried Wolf There was once a young Shepherd Boy who tended his sheep at the foot of a mountain near a dark forest. It was rather lonely for him all day, so he thought upon a plan by which he could get a little company and some excitement. He rushed down towards the village calling out "Wolf, Wolf." The villagers came out to meet him, and some of them stopped with him for a considerable time. This pleased the boy so much that a few days afterwards he tried the same trick, and again the villagers came to his help. But shortly after this a Wolf actually did come out from the forest, and began to worry the sheep, and the boy of course cried out "Wolf, Wolf," still louder than before. But this time the villagers, who had been fooled twice before, thought the boy was again deceiving them, and nobody stirred to come to his help. So the Wolf made a good meal off the boy's flock, and when the boy complained, the wise man of the village said: "A liar will not be believed, even when he speaks the truth."

Mihkal's First Roundup
(excerpt)
Mihkal's eyes were beginning to grow heavy when he heard a low, rumbling sound. It seemed to be coming from all directions
Instantly Mihkal was outside. He knew that sound only too well. He had heard it before. It was an avalanchel
A quick glance at the top of a nearby peak showed the boy that the packed snow was heading in the direction of the bedded-down reindeer
"Fathert Uncle Allul" Mihkal shouted. He ran as fast as he could toward the herd.
"Heil Hell" he called to the dogs, waving his arms frantically
Mihkal felt as though his heart were going to explode Pieces of ice and pebbles struck him on the head, but he kept running. The frightened reindeer were stampeding
ahead of the dogs and the boy. The roaring of the crashing mountainside echoed in Mihkal's ears,
At last, completely exhausted, he fell facedown on the ground. His whole body felt numb. Bright spots swam before his tightly closed eyes.
Several moments later he heard volces and felt himself being lifted high into the air. He shook the snow from his hair and opened his eyes.
He was in Uncle Allu's arms. Farther and the other herders were gathered close by
"Good boy" said Father. "Your quick thinking saved the herd and the dogs,"
Unde Allu's arms tightened around Mihkal. "You may be young and small," he said, grinning, but you can outrun and outyell any boy in Lapland He gave the boy an extra
hard hug. "I'd say you'll make a fine reindeer herder."

Violent games are a bad influence! It's like listening or watching people swear or do bad things you wanna try doing that stuff!

List three (3) interesting facts about life in totalitarian societies.

Answers

Answer:

1) A totalitarian leader tends to use propaganda campaigns spread by state-controlled mass media.

2) Totalitarianism is the most extreme kind of authoritarianism. In authoritarian governments, the state has a single power holder (individual dictator or political elite) that monopolizes political power. If not contested, provides society some degree of liberty. On the other hand, a totalitarian regime strives to control essentially all aspects of social life, like the economy, sciences, education, art, private matters, and social morals.  

3) The Economist has deemed China's social credit system as totalitarian because it is used to screen and classify its citizens according to their personal behavior.

Answers

Answer:

Abusive relationships can come in the form of physical or emotional. It can happen to anyone and a lot of the times people stay in them because they think they have no choice or they have been manipulated into thinking it is all they deserve. An abuser will often times track everything you do, such as on social media and where you go as well as when you go there. This is so they have as much control over you as possible. Sometimes they will also not let you have a job so that you have to rely on them for everything you need as well.

Explanation:

here is 106 words, hope this helps :)

Answer:

I don't remember who told me this, but when I was little someone told me that you receive the love you think you deserve. This correlates to abusive relationships because when someone has been put in the position of being abused, they could have got into that place because they thought they deserved it. I think people who have had issue with parents who are abusive are more likely to get into an abusive relationship with a partner because that's what they have always known, and they might project their problems with their parents onto their partners or try to solve the conflict they had with their parents with their partners.

What is the theme of  The Prison -Door?

The theme of "The Prison-Door" by Nathaniel Hawthorne is the stark contrast between society's harsh judgment and punishment of those who are deemed to have transgressed its moral code and the redemptive power of human spirit and forgiveness.

The story depicts the oppressive and gloomy atmosphere of a Puritan prison, where the accused are punished and ostracized from society. Hawthorne uses the rosebush as a symbol of beauty and hope that grows amid the harshness and despair of the prison.

Through the rosebush, Hawthorne suggests that even in the darkest of places, there is still beauty to be found, and that people can find hope and redemption in forgiveness and compassion, ultimately revealing the human capacity for resilience and redemption.
