1) “They coped with knee-deep mud, with the sickening stench of garbage
and human waste, with rampant disease, with constant fear." - - - Which
TWO answers correctly define the word rampant?
K
Wild and out of control
Contained and not spreading
Something that is spreading or growing quickly
Slow moving

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Wild and out of control .

Something that is spreading or growing quickly .

Explanation:

The word "rampant" is an adjective that describes a scene or action. It means something that is fast spreading, quickly affecting the surrounding areas, or anything that is uncontrolled, unrestrained, or difficult to be contained put in order.

The sentence "[T]hey coped with knee-deep mud, with the sickening stench of garbage and human waste, with rampant disease, with constant fear" presents an image of a scene that is hard to comprehend or not normal. It is full of "mud . . . sickening stench of garbage and human waste . . . disease". And the use of the word "rampant" in describing the "disease" shows that the disease is fast spreading and difficult to be contained or controlled. This means that it is wild, growing, or spreading quickly.

Thus, the correct answers are the first and third options.

Answer:

Author Donna Gephart crafts a dual narrative about two remarkable young people: Lily, a transgender girl, and Dunkin, a boy dealing with bipolar disorder.

Explanation:

write a summary for the article “The Censors”

Answers

Answer:

'The Censors' is the story of a young man named Juan who gets a job censoring letters for an authoritarian government. He's great at it - so great that he censors his own letter and gets himself executed.

Explanation:

All letters written and mailed in this society go through the Censor's Secret Command, a bureaucratic agency that inspects everything for bombs, poisonous powders, secret messages, and more. Anything and everything could be a potential signal to the Censors that the letter's sender or receiver is plotting against the government, and Juan is worried that something in his letter will implicate Mariana.

He comes up with a genius plan: he'll get a job with the Censors, work his way up the ladder, and intercept his own letter to send it through safely. He's hired easily, as there's a continuous need for new censors for reasons that we learn later in the story.

Juan quickly and easily works his way up the ranks at the Censor's Command. By the end of the first week, he's in the department that actually censors letters and is fully devoted to his work. Juan censors letter after letter, throwing away most of them that come across his desk.

One day, Juan's own letter lands on his desk. He's so focused on being the best censor possible that he mercilessly censors it and tosses it in the reject pile, which is a red flag to his superiors. Juan is executed the next day, 'another victim of his devotion to his work.'

50 POINTS What social constructs of love and gender from the Renaissance do we still have today? Your response should be a minimum of five sentences.

Answers

Answer:Throughout history, men and women have been assigned specific roles to which society prescribes standards and qualifications. There are certain tasks that have been traditionally completed only by men, and others that have been assigned to women; most of which are separated by the realm of the domestic sphere. During the period of the Renaissance, men and women were assigned very different roles within society. The value, social expectations, legal status, and rights of citizenship differed greatly between the sexes as well as among the classes. Many of these gender roles can be identified through careful readings of the literature produced throughout the Renaissance. Sometimes the roles are clearly defined, while in other instances the characters move fluidly between them. In Shakespeare’s As You Like It, Renaissance ideas of men and women can be easily identified. However, Rosalind possesses many of the traits typically associated with maleness as she manipulates Orlando and woos him as an outsider. Orlando is also forced into submission by his domineering older brother, Oliver. In As You Like It, Shakespeare assigns the traditional Renaissance gender roles to opposing sexes in the play.

Explanation:

While many social constructs present during the Renaissance are gone today, some still remain. During the Renaissance, women were many times objectified and judged on appearance. While not as bad today, this is still present in our society. Many women are judged based off appearance all the time, from celebrities to the average woman. While this is mostly looked down upon in society today, it still remains.

Answers

Answer:

Read below.

Explanation:

I read this book before but its a long time ago. Basically the crowd that attends the trial in Chapter 16 of the book - To Kill A Mockingbird represent all the types found in Maycomb County. The author accomplishes many things by including all these people because she gives us a richer picture of Maycomb County and the presence of some of these people allows the author to explore in more detail the dynamics of race in Maycomb County, (and Jem and Scout's growing struggle to understand the social "rules" surrounding race). In addition to that, Scout develops because he realized the seriousness of Atticus's decision and its consequences.
