This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question, with the underline words.

Match the underlined word in each verse to its meaning in the context of the poem

the rhythm of a piece of poetry or music

a silly or foolish person

meaning, weight, or significance

reward

a small stream

1. "In which the burthen of the mystery, / In which the heavy and the  weary weight of all this unintelligible world, / Is lightened:"

(from "Tintern Abbey" by William Wordsworth)

2. "Faint I, nor mourn nor murmur, other gifts / Have followed; for such loss, I would believe, / Abundant recompence"

(from "Tintern Abbey" by William Wordsworth)

3. "Hold offl unhand me, grey-beard loon!"

(from "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge)

4. "nor yet beside the rill, Nor up the lawn, nor at the wood was he;"

(from "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard" by Thomas Gray)

5. "Where was heard the mingled measure. From the fountain and the caves."

(from "Kubla Khan" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge)

Answer:

burthen - meaning, weight, or significance

recompence - reward

loon - a silly of foolish person

rill - a small stream

measure - the rhythm of a piece of poetry or music

Explanation:

Burthen is an archaic form of spelling "burden". When we think of a burden, we think of something heavy, difficult to carry around. Therefore, burthen means "weight"

Recompence is more commonly spelled "recompense" nowadays. It is the same as reward.

A loon is a foolish or silly person. We can think of a "loony", a crazy or silly person, someone who does not think or see things the way others do.

A rill is, by definition, a small stream or brook. There is not much we can add here.

Finally, measure refers to the rhythm of a poem or a piece of music. We commonly refer to it by "meter" or simply "rhythm", depending on what we mean.

As we all know that due to the spread of Corona virus we are unable to meet each other, we are facing lockdown continuously, so due to those lock Downs, we are not able to meet them physically, we are just meeting in video calls.

Explanation:

If there was no Internet in this lock down, we were not be able to communicate with each other. if there was no Internet, we were not be able to communicate with those people who are very far away.

So for today, only this much we will talk when we meet physically, and I hope the lockdown will end soon and we will be able to meet fast and make gossips as we use to do in our past times. Hope we will meet soon and I miss you so much my dear friend.

Hi Jane!
I've been meaning to write for ages and finally today I'm actually doing something about it. Not that I'm trying to make excuses for myself, it's been really hard to sit down and write, as I've been moving around so much. Since we last saw each other I've unpacked my bags in four different cities.
I went from London to Prague to set up a new regional office there. You know I'd always wanted to go, but maybe I was imagining Prague in spring when I used to talk about that. Winter was really hard, with minus 15 degrees in the mornings and dark really early in the evening. But at least it was blue skies and white snow and not days on end of grey skies and rain, like at home.
From there I was on another three-month mission to oversee the set-up of the office in New York. Loved, loved, loved New York! It's like being in one big TV show, as everywhere looks just a little bit familiar. I did every tourist thing you can think of when I wasn't working, and must have spent most of my salary on eating out. It was really hard to leave for the next job, especially as I kind of met someone (!) More about Michael later ...
So then I was posted to LA, which felt like a whole other country compared with the East Coast. I could definitely get used to that kind of outdoor, beach lifestyle, but I didn't spend as much time getting to know California as I could have because I was flying back to see Michael every other weekend. He came to see me when he could, but his job means he's often working at weekends, so he couldn't make the flight very often. Those three months flew by and then I was off again, to Frankfurt, which is where I am now. And ... so is Michael! He got a month off work and we're trying to work out how we can be in the same place at the same time for a while. We figure the first step in that direction is getting married, which is also why I wanted to write – I can't get married without my oldest friend there! The wedding's going to be at home in London in September and I hope you can come!
Anyway, tell me all your news and I promise not to leave it so long this time! Lots of love,
Kath

Answers

Answer:

I would like our culture to maintain a passion for sports, encouraging education and the ability to be resilient. However, I would like the irresponsibility with food, prejudice and the feeling of superiority to be removed from our culture.

Explanation:

We have a very rich and special culture that greatly influences our life and our personality as a whole. However, while maintaining pride and recognizing the beauty of our culture, we must recognize that there are harmful elements that must be abandoned as soon as possible.

Regarding the beneficial elements of our culture, I believe that the ability to reinvent and be resilient in difficult situations must not only be maintained but stimulated, the same goes for encouraging education and sports that promote living standards that are beneficial for all . However, our culture was built on a feeling of superiority that should be abandoned as soon as possible, as well as racism and irresponsibility with the food that harms our organism in a big way.

When you encounter a T-critical value of 2.50, which T-obtained value would reject the null hypothesis? A) Tobt = 2.75 B) Tobt = -2.75 C) Tobt = 2.40 D) Tobt = - 2.40

Answers

Answer: A) Tobt = 2.75 B) Tobt = -2.75

Explanation:

We reject the null hypothesis when the absolute critical t-value is lower than the absolute t-obtained value.

The given t-critical value [tex]T_{crit}=2.50[/tex]

So , we reject null hypothesis , when [tex]2.50< | T_{obt}|[/tex]

Since, [tex]2.50<|2.75|,\ \ 2.50<|-2.75|[/tex]  but [tex]2.50>|2.40|\ \ \ , 2.50>|-2.40|[/tex]

So, the correct options are A) Tobt = 2.75 B) Tobt = -2.75

Read the following group discussion about utopias (perfect societies) and dystopias (hellish societies).

VICTOR: If you all read Sanchez's article, you know that she argues that Aldous Huxley's Brave New World is a utopian novel, not a dystopian novel. It's a negative society for the main character only because he's a weirdo, an outsider. Everybody else is happy.
RIKU: Yeah, but keep in mind how Sanchez defines a utopia. Her idea of a perfect society is one where everybody is ranked by ability and there isn't any conflict - not even disagreements. EDGAR: What's your point?
RIKU: My point is that Sanchez's idea of a perfect society is all about rules and order. I know that my idea of a utopia is totally different from that, and it's probably different from a lot of other people's, including Huxley's.
MARIA: In that case, what are some other examples of utopias? Ones that aren't orderly like the society in Brave New World?
Edgar: Why don't we each find a different example of a utopian society in literature and see how they're different?

Answers

Answer:

C. Given that she had saved my life, I decided that some thanks were

in order

Explanation:

Understatements are when you write something as if it were less of a deal then it really is. In C, this person saved the narrator's life. That's a huge deal. Then the narrator said that "some thanks were in order" super casually, as if this woman didn't just prevent the narrator from death.

So, C is the most clear understatement out of all of the answers.

The statement that contain the best example of understatement is, given that she had saved my life, I decided that some thanks were in order.

What is understatement?

Understatement is the statement that make look something smaller or less intense, but in actual it is very important or big news.

In the C sentence, given that a girl saved the life of the person, which is the biggest thing, but the person is implying it as less important.

Thus, the correct option is C.

Islam is an ancient religion that maintains its traditions until today. This religion is usually quite rigid, conservative and conventional, exposing its practitioners, Muslims, to fundamental directors who may be very different from those defended by non-Muslims.

The fundamental rights of non-Muslims, may totally escape from the rules established by religion, but it must be stressed that these rights must be respected by Muslims, especially by professionals in the social sphere, such as Muslim social psychologists. The work of a psychologist is directly related to the understanding and the right of the individuality of their patients and, therefore, Muslim social psychologists have encouraged respect for and demand for the fundamental rights of non-Muslims.
