For Fanon in The Wretched of the Earth, the colonizer's presence inAlgeria is based on sheer military strength. Anyresistance to this strength must also be of a violent nature because it is the only "language" the colonizer speaks.

Explanation:

Write a short analysis that compares and contrasts a computer to a pen. Include two similarities and two differences.

Answers

Answer:  In the past few days you may well have scribbled out a shopping list on the back of an envelope or stuck a Post-it on your desk. Perhaps you added a comment to your child’s report book or made a few quick notes during a meeting. But when did you last draft a long text by hand? How long ago did you write your last “proper” letter, using a pen and a sheet of writing paper? Are you among the increasing number of people, at work, who are switching completely from writing to typing?

No one can say precisely how much handwriting has declined, but in June a British survey of 2,000 people gave some idea of the extent of the damage. According to the study, commissioned by Docmail, a printing and mailing company, one in three respondents had not written anything by hand in the previous six months. On average they had not put pen to paper in the previous 41 days. People undoubtedly write more than they suppose, but one thing is certain: with information technology we can write so fast that handwritten copy is fast disappearing in the workplace.

In the United States they have already made allowance for this state of affairs. Given that email and texting have replaced snail mail, and that students take notes on their laptops, “cursive” writing – in which the pen is not raised between each character – has been dropped from the Common Core Curriculum Standards, shared by all states. Since 2013 American children have been required to learn how to use a keyboard and write in print. But they will no longer need to worry about the up and down strokes involved in “joined-up” writing, less still the ornamental loops on capitals.

-Shakespeare's important contributions to language should be celebrated by those who research language,
literature, and the arts.
-Languages around the world are constantly changing for many reasons, but English is the only language
important enough to research

Answers

The second and fourth statements are opinions; opening an informational essay with such obvious bias will most likely turn away a good portion of potential readers at the get-go, making all the time and effort put into the drafting of this piece all for naught!

Although it has been quite a long time (33 years), since I was a student, at that time I was taught that one’s bias should rarely, if ever, be included in an informational essay; should one choose to do so in spite of all recommendations to the contrary, best to do so at the end of the article as deftly as possible, so as not to even alert the reader to the fact that it was done, if at all possible. The readers will not all be in agreement with you, and the point of this writing is to convey information. That cannot happen if you’ve alienated a chunk of the audience one hopes to have read this.

But, then again I may be way off base. As I said, it’s been awhile.

Answers

Answer:

In "Through the Tunnel," the negative connotations and dangerous imagery associated with the "wild bay" help to convey the theme that growing up can be a painful and scary process.  Jerry longs to grow up and to fit in with the "older boys -- men to Jerry" who swim and dive at the wild bay rather than remain on the "safe beach" with his mother, a beach later described as "a place for children."  The way to the wild bay is marked with "rough, sharp rock" and the water shows "stains of purple and darker blue."  The rocks sound as if they could do a great deal of damage to the body, and the stains are described like a bruise.  It sounds painful.  Then, "rocks lay like discoloured monsters under the surface" of the water and "irregular cold currents from the deep shocked [Jerry's] limbs."  This place sounds frightening and alarming and unpredictable.  Given that this is the location associated with maturity, with the time after childhood, we can understand that the process of growing up and becoming a man is a time that is fraught with dangers and fear, because Jerry endures both in the "wild bay."  hopes this helps

Answers

Hello. You did not present the answer options, which makes it impossible for your question to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

According to the description of the prefix and suffix of the word "monologue", we can see that a sentence that would well illustrate the meaning of that word would be a sentence that presents an individual who is talking to himself in a logical and conscious way.

The word "monologue," in fact, means "talking to yourself," however, this is a conscious and logical action of the individual who is aware that he is speaking and exposing his thoughts to himself. Thus, we can consider that a sentence that shows an individual talking to himself and exposing his thoughts and emotions in a solitary way, would well illustrate the meaning of "monologue."

argumentative essay on corruption in Nigeria​

Answers

Answer:

Corruption can be defined as the use of entrusted power to accumulate public wealthy for personal benefit. Corruption is not peculiar to any country, continent or state; it is sure a global issue which is an endemic to all government all over the world. However, corruption is prevalent in the Niger delta region of Nigeria; public officers in this oil producing state of Nigeria are corrupt. Consequently, it has defied the Niger delta from developing politically and economically which has left the states reputation in a mess. Radicalization of youths, abject poverty and -political instability are the three leading effects of corruption in the Niger delta region of Nigeria.

Most children in the Niger delta have little or no education, due to lack of funds from their parents who have lost their lands and have no jobs because of limited opportunities. The Niger delta government and the oil companies have refused to look into the situation; instead they favor their close relations neglecting the masses. Corruption in the Niger delta has led some youths in taking drastic measure in order to put food on their table. For example, Ikechukwu  Efe an indigene of the Niger delta said that some of his friends created their own  “oil refinery”, which is made up of crude oil in metal barrels with controlled heat from fire woods. This is a dangerous process in refining crude oil but the degree of poverty in the state left his friends with no choice. If only the government of the Niger delta have created jobs with the wealth of the state Ikechukwu’s friend would not have to put their lives in danger. Until corruption is put to an abrupt the people of the Niger delta will continue to live in poverty.

 Corruption in the Niger delta region of Nigeria as resulted in youths becoming militants and kidnappers which have led to killing of innocent individuals.  During the past few years a lot of people have died in the Niger delta due to violent killings because of dispute over oil revenue and compensation.

Which excerpt from the poem "The Great Wave: Hokusai" best supports the conclusion that the artist intended the wave to feel threatening?

It is because the sea is blue,
Because Fuji is blue, because the bent blue
Men have white faces, like the snow
On Fuji, like the crest of the wave in the sky the color of their
Boats.
It is because the air
Is full of writing, because the wave is still: that nothing
Will harm these frail strangers,
That high over Fuji in an earthcolored sky the fingers
Will not fall
In the painter's sea
All fishermen are safe. All anger bends under his unity.
But the innocent bystander, he merely
'Walks round a corner, thinking of nothing': hidden
He stands half in and half out of the world; he is the men,
But he cannot see below Fuji
The shore the color of sky; he is the wave, he stretches
His claws against strangers.

Answers

Answer:

He stands half in and half out of the world; he is the men,

But he cannot see below Fuji

The shore the color of sky; he is the wave, he stretches

His claws against strangers.

Explanation:

This best suits the answer

The excerpt "He stands half in and half out of the world; he is the men, but he cannot see below Fuji the shore the color of sky; he is the wave, he stretches his claws against strangers," best supports the conclusion, hence option D is correct.

What is the main subject of the poem, "The Great Wave"?

The main subject of the poem is the relationship between man and ocean. The undulating, commanding ocean, the three boats, and the distant vista of Mount Fuji have been seen as the three principal subjects of this well-known work of Japanese art.

The force of nature is unmatched by men, and the waves appear to be terrifying monsters that are ready to assault and eat.

Therefore, in order to convey their might and ugliness, the poem gives the ocean and the waves human characteristics.
