King arthur gives sir bedivere his sword, excalibur. Considering hay you know about medieval romances, explain enag excalibur symbolizes. Support your response with specific examples from morte d'Arthur

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Excalibur has a very strong and diverse meaning and can be interpreted in many different ways. One of the most common ways is to assume that excalibur represents leadership. That's because she allowed Arthur to become England's rightful sovereign, becoming a great leader, a king.

Nevertheless, the excalibur symbolizes power, courage, honor and respect because that is what Arthur achieved by having it.

The delivery of the escalibur, as Arthur delivered it to Bedivere, means the acceptance of death, for Arthur knew that he would not need any of these factors in the place where his soul would go and it was time for other people to take possession of the escalibur.

D.

E.
It allows the author to identify the problems that existed in the previous research.

Answers

Answer:

E - It allows the author to identify the problems that existed in the previous research.

Explanation:

As the excerpt states in the beginning: "  Our thinking, perception, and ability to understand language are processed in the outermost layer of the brain. This area is known as the cerebral cortex. Researchers are still working to understand how the cerebral cortex is organized. Scientists have used a variety of techniques to map the brain's organization over the past century. However, these measures don't always reveal the same boundaries and borders in the brain's landscape." This tells up that there were problems before hand. Which goes with B.

It allows the author to identify the problems that existed in the previous research and hence the author's use of chronological order help to convey this idea.

Chronological order is the placement of events based on when they occur. There are many ways to organize your events. For example, people may rank the events of their lives according to their importance and where the events happened. However, if the criterion for placing a life event is the timing of the event, the placement will be in chronological order. The chronology can be used to convey two different meanings: calendar and time.

As per the opening excerpt, this indicates that there were issues before hand. The correct answer is option E.

In both the opening and closing paragraphs Bradbury uses imagery that contributes to a sense of isolation. Write two paragraphs explaining how he uses similar details to produce different effects/emotions in each paragraph. The pedestrian

Answers

Answer:

Bradbury is a genius inscriber who masterfully engenders work that contributes towards the betterment of society while withal composing a caveat. He often pushes towards a conception of the regime having an exorbitant amount of power and proposes a much more libertarian view of the world. He achieved this by exhibiting categorical details in his inditement to show a contrast of solitude. He focuses his inscription to show minute details to expand the reader’s cognizance to feel they are experiencing it themselves.

Bradbury often pushes the plot of “beauty through the pain” virtually by perpetually exhibiting the dark, uncensored world afore it may become censored. Bradbury’s work, albeit nice, should be utilized as a cautionary warning towards younger individuals. It pains me to visually perceive this, but the pushing of a higher regime could facilely enforce rules like this, and Bradbury, albeit the book was indited in 1953, is at its truest form right now.

Who led the Battle of the Cowshed? in the book animal farm

Answers

Answer:

Mr Jones?

Explanation:

not sure

Answer:

Im pretty sure its Mr.Jones if thats an answer??

Explanation:

Read the passage and answer the questions that follows :

(1) We all want to succeed. Whether it’s in losing weight learning the guitar,
speed reading, or starting our own business. For those of us who have tried
and failed, success seems elusive. Why is it one person succeeds where another
personal fails? First and foremost, I believe it is in their mindset. But secondly,
I believe that successful people have developed certain habits, either naturally
or through research that the rest of us haven’t stumbled upon yet.
(2) What is important to you? Finding your core values may seem a bit off-topic
when it comes to success, but creating goals that are in line with your values
is key to creating intrinsic motivation. Sit and reflect on what you value most.
Pick a handful of things and actually write them down. Remind yourself of
your values every day, and reflect on whether you are honoring those values
through your work.
(3) Choose one goal to start. Something large enough that will give you a sense of
accomplishment, while aligning well with your core values. Focus is key here.
The more focused you are on one goal, the higher chance you have of success.
Set a date for success. Identify when your hope to achieve your goal. Keep
it realistic, while not giving yourself too much time. By setting a time limit, you
are making the process more real. Believe fully in your ability to achieve your
goal. Visualize yourself having completed your goal in the exact time-frame
you have chosen, although finishing early is also acceptable. You don’t need
to consider the failures that will happen along the way. Success is inevitable.
Others may think you will fail, don’t let yourself be one of them!
(4) Set up negative consequences for missing the deadline. Necessity is the mother
of all invention. If you can manage to keep yourself intrinsically motivated,
that’s great. If not, this will help kick you into gear and keep your eye on the
prize. Prioritize the tasks you have in front of you. Don’t always do the most
urgent thing first. Pick the task that’s the most important. Sometimes these
overlap, which is nice. By always accomplishing what’s most important, you
are making clear progress toward your goal.
(5) Push yourself. Go out of your comfort zone. This is the best way to learn, and
the best way to make progress quickly. If you’re looking for new ideas, being
risk averse will not help. This takes a lot of self-awareness. Try and be
conscious of when you are holding yourself back out of fear. Push yourself to
be courageous, and take that next step. Failure is inevitable when you take
risks, which is what you’ll be doing if you want to succeed. By its very definition,
the desire to succeed at something means you are risking failure. Many people
tend to give up far too early. Use failure. Treat it as a good thing, and march
on!
(6) Take time every day to sit quietly and reflect on your values, goals, and progress
made so far. Where have you excelled, and where can you do better. Is
everything you are doing still lining up with your core values? Always look for
ways to improve. Never stop learning. Know what everyone else is doing,
and what everyone else has done, and how they did it. Search wide for
knowledge that might help you, and any inspiration that may do the same.
Never think you have nothing to learn from others.

(a) On the basis of your reading of the above passage, make notes on its
using recognizable abbreviations (Min. 4) wherever necessary. Use a
format you consider appropriate. Supply a suitable title.

(b) Write a summary of the passage.

"Might drop on his head from the sky," said the frivolous Herbert.
"Morris said the things happened so naturally," said his father, "that you might if you so wished attribute it to coincidence."
"Well, don't break into the money before I come back," said Herbert as he rose from the table. "I'm afraid it'll turn you into a mean, avaricious man, and we shall have to disown you."
His mother laughed, and following him to the door, watched him down the road; and returning to the breakfast table, was very happy at the expense of her husband's credulity. All of which did not prevent her from scurrying to the door at the postman's knock, nor prevent her from referring somewhat shortly to retired sergeant-majors . . . when she found that the post brought a tailor's bill.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The short story "The Monkey's Paw" by W. W. Jacobs revolves around the magical ability of a monkey's paw in fulfilling three wishes to its owner. The story relays the message the greed is never good for anyone, let alone bring people happiness.

Mr. White acquired the talisman from his friend Sergeant Major Morris who had got it during his time in India. And he believed that the talisman brings harm more than luck, and threw into the fire. But Mr. White took it out and decided to keep it for himself. This shows that he somehow believed in the magical ability of the monkey's paw. And like her husband, Mrs. White as well as their son Herbert also believed in the paw's magic. Their conversation about the "two hundred pounds" and their belief that it'll be granted shows their belief in the monkey's paw and its magical abilities.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
