Do you believe in ghosts? Why or why not? Do you believe that people can return from the dead and appear as ghosts? Explain.

Answers

I do not believe in ghost. I think when we die we reincarnate as a new person.

Answer:

I'm a bit late to answer but yes, I think I am somewhat connected to the spiritual world. I sometimes see floating auras and I have communicated twice. My very father has haunted me, when you die and you were rude to someone or hurt someone or visa versa, you come back to fix what has been broken. My dad was really rude to me while hes was alive, after his death while doing things that would be connected to him, (like doing things he would like to do) very weird things would happen until one day I connected the dots and quietly said "I forgive you". Nothing weird involving him has happened since. There is also the ghost of a 17 year old boy in my room who I have spoken with but he does not wish for his story to be told.

At Jundi Shapur the best scholars west of China all gathered to think and study together.

Identify the type of relationship that is shown through the use of the transitional word or phrase in the sentence below: She always wore her blue skirt on Mondays, but it was dirty.

Answers

The answer is contrast or opposition

Explanation:

Transitional words or phrases include but, or, for example, firstly, among others. These are used as part of the language to indicate the relationship between elements and connect ideas. In the sentence presented, the transitional word "but" connects the detail "it was dirty."

Moreover, these words can show different relationships between details including similarity, contrast, order, emphasis, exemplification, among others. In the case of "but" this shows contrast or opposition. This relationship occurs in the sentence presented because the transitional word helps the speaker clarify that specific Monday the woman could not wear the skirt (but it was dirty) even when she always did it (she always wore her blue skirt on Mondays.)

Answer: Contrast

Explanation: Is that Dewang?

Read this excerpt from “Poor Harold.”

A room in Washington Square South. By the light of a candle, a young man in tousled hair and dressing gown is writing furiously at a little table. A clock within strikes seven.

A door at the back opens, and a young woman looks in, sleepily. She frowns. The young man looks up guiltily.

SHE. What are you doing?

HE. (innocently) Writing.

SHE. So I see. (She comes in, and sits down. It may be remarked that a woman's morning appearance, in dishabille, is a severe test of both looks and character; she passes that test triumphantly. She looks at the young man, and asks) – Poetry?

HE. (hesitatingly) No. . . .

SHE. (continues to look inquiry).

HE. (finally) A letter. . . .

SHE. (inflexibly) – To whom?

HE. (defiantly) To my wife!

SHE. Oh! That's all right. I thought perhaps you were writing to your father.

HE. (bitterly) My father! Why should I write to my father? Isn't it enough that I have broken his heart and brought disgrace upon him in his old age –

SHE. Disgrace? Nonsense! Anybody might be named as a co-respondent in a divorce case.

HE. Not in Evanston, Illinois. Not when you are the local feature of a notorious Chicago scandal. Not when your letters to the lady are published in the newspapers. – Oh, those letters!

SHE. Were they such incriminating letters, Harold?

HAROLD. Incriminating? How can you ask that, Isabel? They were perfectly innocent letters, such as any gentleman poet might write to any lady poetess. How was I to know that a rather plain-featured woman I sat next to at a Poetry Dinner in Chicago was conducting a dozen love-affairs? How was I to know that my expressions of literary regard would look like love-letters to her long-suffering husband? That's the irony of it: I'm perfectly blameless.

What does Johnny mean when he says “stay gold” right before he dies? (page 148)

How has Dally’s character developed from the beginning of the book until now?

Answers

Answer:

1. Sodapop says that he likes fighting because “[i]t’s action. It’s a contest, Like a drag race or a  dance or something” (133).

Steve, is more violent in the sense that he likes fighting because he  wants to “beat those Soc’ head in” (133) because he enjoys it.

The boys explain that Darry likes  to fight because he gets to show off his muscles. Ponyboy says that Darry likes to take part in  anything related to strength.

Ponyboy will fight, but he doesn’t like it.

Darry is hesitant to let Ponyboy fight because he has lost weight and strength since being in  Windrixville. He also doesn’t like that Ponyboy will be fighting without Johnny, since they  usually protect each other.

2. Johnny’s last words to Ponyboy were “Stay gold, Ponyboy. Stay gold” (148).

This message  refers back to the poem that Johnny and Pony read while they were at the church in Windrixville.

Stay gold in this particular instance refers to being true to yourself and attempting to remain  innocent and uncorrupted. When Johnny, in his final hour, tells Ponyboy to “Stay Gold” he is  telling him to not conform to what society dictates and to stay true to his pure self despite the violent and tumultuous world he lives in.

3. Dally had pulled the kids from the burning  church and Dally had risked his life and risked going to jail in order to keep Pony and  Johnny safe. He made a difference by caring for his family.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Complete these sentences about medieval plays. were short comedic plays that introduced real characters who were more fully developed than characters in allegories. These short plays helped to the mood in the midst of serious, instructive plays. Which of these statements is true about the play Everyman?

Answers

Answer:

Interlude: were short comedic plays that introduced real characters who were more fully developed than characters in allegories.

A). The fate of Everyman is destined.

Explanation:

The correct option to complete the given definition would be 'interlude.' Interludes are characterized as the plays that evolved from morality plays. It served as a transition between the morality plays of the medieval period and the Tudor drama. These were the 'short comedic plays' performed in the middle of serious plays or at banquets/aristocratic meetings for giving a break from the seriousness of the atmosphere and amuse the audience.

As per the question, the first option states a correct claim about the morality play 'Everyman' that the 'fate of Everyman is destined' i.e. 'his imminent death.' He represents the entire humanity and his struggle to prevent death and later to accept it symbolizes the human nature of evading the ultimate reality of human life i.e. their mortality. It is their deeds which define their judgment by god after death. Thus, option A is the correct answer.

The engineers believed that the roller coaster was safe to ride again; ______, they decided to keep it closed until further test trials could be completed. Which transition best completes the sentence?

Answers

Answer:

"but"

Explanation:

The best and only transition that works for this sentence would be "but". This states that even though the ride was safe the engineers still decided to go against the logical next step and maintain the ride closed until they could make certain that it was completely safe. If the second part of the sentence was a logical conclusion the transition could be "so" or "and". But that is not the case so this would be the best transition for the sentence.

Read the negative position from "Animal Rights Debate."


It is clear that humans are superior to animals, and therefore animals should not have the same rights as human beings. The Greek philosopher Aristotle argued that only humans have the ability to reason. Animals only have instincts to guide them. Therefore, they are not sentient, or thinking, beings like humans are. In addition, humans show their superiority to animals through control. Humans have superior abilities that allow them to raise animals for a variety of uses. Human beings are in control of animal life, making animal rights unnecessary.


Which statement best uses the ideas of the negative position to provide an affirmative rebuttal?


Animals can show humanlike traits, such as cooperation and the use of tools.

The purpose of animals is to be either consumed or used, regardless of whether they can reason with others.

Even though humans can communicate their reasoning better

Answers

Answer:

Even though humans can communicate their reasoning better than animals, animals like chimpanzees have shown that they reflect on their own thoughts.

Explanation:

A rebuttal is a way of contesting an earlier statement, showing facts that prove that the previous statement is not correct, but has inconsistencies and therefore cannot be considered.

An example of this can be seen in the question that presents a text that states that animals do not need rights, since they are not able to reason and reflect. In this case, it is possible to refute this claim by claiming that even though humans can communicate their reasoning better than animals, animals like chimpanzees have shown that they reflect on their own thoughts.
