How do the ideas expressed in lines 88-96 help to qualify or clarify some of Thoreau's earlier points?
Answer:
The lines reinforce the idea that to disobey an unjust government is to fight injustice and to be a force against the problems that this government causes.
Explanation:
This question is about "Civil Disobedience."
In lines 88-96 Thoreau reinforces the idea that the government is a "great machine" that promotes injustices on an admirable scale and that impedes the individuality and proactivity of individuals, as a way to protect themselves from a possible revolt between them, but an individual who disobeys this and acts against the government, causing friction in that machine is capable of promoting changes, even if he has to appeal for disobedience.

Answer:
She finished her work and then took a long lunch.
Explanation:
Commas are used to separate independent clauses and also to provide short pauses. Moreover, it is also used to separate lists.
The correct comma placement for the given sentence is "She finished her work and then took a long lunch." In this case, a comma is not necessary because the second verb does not have a subject in front. The subject "she" appears only in front of the first verb "finished".
Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
Write a summary of ‘The Purification of the Thames’, The Illustrated London News 1858
Answer:
The great question of the purification — or rather of the non-pollution — of the Thames is the newest and most flagrant example of this ancient truth. Error has been permitted to accumulate upon error, neglect upon neglect, and wrong upon wrong, until the evil consequences, strengthened and complicated by the lapse of time, have become so unmanageable that action or inaction is equally dangerous. The Thames, which, fifty years ago, ran through London in a clear and limpid stream, over whose current it was a pleasure to be rowed, in whose waves it was delightful to bathe, and of whose pure waters it was wholesome to drink, has, by sheer neglect on the part both of the people and the Government, become a foul sewer, a river of pollution, a Stream of Death, festering and reeking with all abominable smells, and threatening three millions of people with pestilence as the penalty of their ignorance and apathy. It was the duty as well as the interest of London to keep its noble river, the source of all its wealth and much of its beauty, as clear as Nature gave it. But the initial difficulty in the case was that there was no London that could undertake the work. There was an old and small city, with rights and powers of self-government, surrounded by a congeries of towns, boroughs, and villages, larger than itself, and growing larger every day, all of which were equally interested in this great achievement, but none of which had the means of taking a step for the furtherance of the common design. The city or municipality of London — the mere nucleus of that mightier conglomeration of cities which form the actual metropolis of the British Empire — was not likely to tax the dwellers within its own narrow and defined area with the cost of the sewerage of the whole metropolis; and it had no power to levy a shilling for the purpose on the people of Westminster, Finsbury, Marylebone, or any other outlying borough.
Explanation:
Read the first sentence of the article.
Escalating their battle to stamp out an unprecedented spread of street encampments, city officials have begun seizing tiny houses from homeless people in South Los Angeles.
What does the word "unprecedented" convey to the reader?
A. that the city has never before experienced the homeless situation that is occurring now
B.that the current homeless situation in the city is confusing to most people
C.that the city realizes that the homeless situation is growing at an unpredictable rate
D. that the current homeless situation is creating hazardous conditions for city residents
Answer:
The word "unprecedented" conveys the following:
A. that the city has never before experienced the homeless situation that is occurring now.
Explanation:
"Unprecedented" is an adjective used to refer to something that has never been done or seen before, something that has never happened before. When the speaker of the sentence says the "spread of street encampments" is unprecedented, what he/she means is that the city has never experienced this situation before, that it had never been this urgent or alarming. For that reason, the best option is letter A. that the city has never before experienced the homeless situation that is occurring now.
summary about Act III of Macbeth.
Answer:
In the royal palace at Forres, Banquo paces and thinks about the coronation of Macbeth and the prophecies of the weird sisters. The witches foretold that Macbeth would be king and that Banquo’s line would eventually sit on the throne. If the first prophecy came true, Banquo thinks, feeling the stirring of ambition, why not the second? Macbeth enters, attired as king. He is followed by Lady Macbeth, now his queen, and the court. Macbeth and Lady Macbeth ask Banquo to attend the feast they will host that night. Banquo accepts their invitation and says that he plans to go for a ride on his horse for the afternoon. Macbeth mentions that they should discuss the problem of Malcolm and Donalbain. The brothers have fled from Scotland and may be plotting against his crown.
Banquo departs, and Macbeth dismisses his court. He is left alone in the hall with a single servant, to whom he speaks about some men who have come to see him. Macbeth asks if the men are still waiting and orders that they be fetched. Once the servant has gone, Macbeth begins a soliloquy. He muses on the subject of Banquo, reflecting that his old friend is the only man in Scotland whom he fears. He notes that if the witches’ prophecy is true, his will be a “fruitless crown,” by which he means that he will not have an heir. The murder of Duncan, which weighs so heavily on his conscience, may have simply cleared the way for Banquo’s sons to overthrow Macbeth’s own family.The servant reenters with Macbeth’s two visitors. Macbeth reminds the two men, who are murderers he has hired, of a conversation he had with them the day before, in which he chronicled the wrongs Banquo had done them in the past. He asks if they are angry and manly enough to take revenge on Banquo. They reply that they are, and Macbeth accepts their promise that they will murder his former friend. Macbeth reminds the murderers that Fleance must be killed along with his father and tells them to wait within the castle for his command.Elsewhere in the castle, Lady Macbeth expresses despair and sends a servant to fetch her husband. Macbeth enters and tells his wife that he too is discontented, saying that his mind is “full of scorpions”. He feels that the business that they began by killing Duncan is not yet complete because there are still threats to the throne that must be eliminated. Macbeth tells his wife that he has planned “a deed of dreadful note” for Banquo and Fleance and urges her to be jovial and kind to Banquo during the evening’s feast, in order to lure their next victim into a false sense of security
It is dusk, and the two murderers, now joined by a third, linger in a wooded park outside the palace. Banquo and Fleance approach on their horses and dismount. They light a torch, and the murderers set upon them. The murderers kill Banquo, who dies urging his son to flee and to avenge his death. One of the murderers extinguishes the torch, and in the darkness Fleance escapes. The murderers leave with Banquo’s body to find Macbeth and tell him what has happened. After his first confrontation with the witches, Macbeth worried that he would have to commit a murder to gain the Scottish crown. He seems to have gotten used to the idea, as by this point the body count has risen to alarming levels. Now that the first part of the witches’ prophecy has come true, Macbeth feels that he must kill his friend Banquo and the young Fleance in order to prevent the second part from becoming realized. But, as Fleance’s survival suggests, there can be no escape from the witches’ prophecies. (I hope this helps!

Three ways I can save money in my current situation are not wasting money on things I don't need, instead I will save it for things I might actually need in the future. The second way is by getting food at home instead of going out to eat, I can use that money to buy more food for cheaper that I can make for myself at home.

How does dependency theory differ from modernization theory? Describe the ways these two theories complement or clash with one another. Which theory do you think best describes the current world economy?
Answer:
Modernization theory will boost economy of all countries while dependency theory will make poor economies colonized under the technology drive of western world
Explanation:
As per the Modernization theory, the higher will be the intervention of technology in our lives, the higher will be the increase in wealth across the globe. This will eventually improve the condition of low-income nations. While on the other hand Dependency theory states that technology intervention led to increase in wealth of few countries only. It can also be perceived that technology drive of western world has colonised the poor economies once again the way it used to be in pre world war era.
In current scenario, the dependency theory seems to be more convenient because as perceived the gain in wealth of low income countries has not increased with a pace as expected. Technology has boosted the economy of developed and developing countries majorly
