Read the paragraph.

Violence in video games is essentially to blame for violence in our society. When children are bombarded with monstrous images, they begin to think that these types of actions are normal or acceptable. Children and teenagers are spending excessive numbers of hours playing video games, and they may begin to use them as a guideline for how to act and behave. Even if they do not perform violent actions, they may become less sensitive to the thoughts and feelings of others because of what they see reflected in these games.

The author most likely uses the word monstrous rather than the word “unpleasant” because it has

a more positive connotation than the word “unpleasant.”
a more negative connotation than the word “unpleasant.”
a more neutral connotation than the word “unpleasant.”
almost the same connotation as the word “unpleasant.”

Captain Canot describes treatment of slaves in what way? . What evidence does he use? How does he present his information?

Answers

Sadly, Captain Canot didn't believe that the treatment of slaves was a problem. Like most people in his time, it was common to think of slaves as only sub-humans. To Captain Canot he was just carrying regular old cargo that just so happened to be alive and breathing.

Captain Canot was a person who captured slaves to make them work for him, he gave them little privileges and had zero qualms about it.

(I wasn't able to get access to any text for a clearcut example, but essentially you're supposed to find an example in whatever text you are reading to support that he was completely ok with slavery. Like, in what ways did he explicitly imply that slavery is a good thing, or what actions and feelings do he have towards it being a thing? And then explain it.)

Answers

Answer: Athletic success and controversy came to Iverson at an early age. At Bethel High School, he led the school’s gridiron football and basketball teams to state championships his junior year. At age 17 he was jailed after being accused of starting a racially charged brawl in a bowling alley, but his conviction was later overturned because of lack of evidence. He was offered a scholarship to Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., where in two years he averaged 23 points per game and won two Big East Conference Defensive Player of the Year awards before making the decision to leave school to play professionally. Iverson was chosen first overall in the 1996 National Basketball Association (NBA) draft by the Philadelphia 76ers. Although he was one of the smallest players in the league, standing 6 feet (1.8 metres) tall and weighing 165 pounds (75 kg), Iverson immediately made a big splash, leading his team with a scoring average of 23.5 points per game and winning Rookie of the Year honours. His quickness and his signature crossover dribble often left even the best defenders helpless. Off the court his baggy clothing, flashy jewelry, and braided hair were not part of the image the NBA wanted to promote. During his early years in the league, he clashed frequently with coaches and team officials, was portrayed by the media as a selfish, disruptive player, and had several run-ins with the law. Yet he developed a huge following of young fans who identified with his rebellious image. Despite the controversies that followed him, Iverson proved his talent on the court, taking the league scoring title in 1998–99 and winning the scoring title, the steals title, and Most Valuable Player honours in 2000–01 while guiding the 76ers to the NBA finals. In the middle of the 2006–07 season he was traded to the Denver Nuggets, where he was teamed with young superstar Carmelo Anthony. Iverson was an extremely proficient scorer, and in 2007 he became the sixth fastest player in NBA history to score 20,000 career points. Denver, however, failed to advance beyond the first round of the play-offs, and Iverson expressed a desire to play for a contender. Three games into the 2008–09 season, he was traded to the Detroit Pistons, but the Pistons finished the season with a losing record and were swept in the first round of the play-offs, leading Iverson and the team to part ways. Iverson signed with the Memphis Grizzlies in September 2009, but, unhappy with his role on the team, he left the Grizzlies after playing only three games, and his contract was terminated soon thereafter. Iverson then announced his retirement from professional basketball, but he instead returned for a second stint with the 76ers, after signing with the team in December 2009. The return of the still-popular Iverson led to an upswing in home attendance for the 76ers that proved to be short-lived. He left the team in February 2010 to spend time with his ailing daughter, and the next month the 76ers announced that he would not return for the remainder of the 2009–10 season. In October 2010 Iverson signed a two-year contract with Besiktas, a Turkish professional team. He left Besiktas halfway through his first season in Turkey and was without a team until he officially retired in October 2013. Iverson was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2016.

Can a person believe in God and still accept Evolution? Why or why not

Answers

Answer:

Yes... Although most U.S. Catholics accept the idea of evolution in some form, a substantial percentage of American adults reject the scientific explanation for the origins of human life, and a number of religious groups in the U.S. maintain that Charles Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection is not correct because it conflicts with their views of creation.

Explanation:

Answer:

I see no conflict in what the Bible tells me about God and what science tells me about nature. Like St. Augustine in

A.D. 400, I do not find the wording of Genesis 1 and 2 to suggest a scientific textbook but a powerful and poetic

description of God's intentions in creating the universe. The mechanism of creation is left unspecified. If God, who is

all powerful and who is not limited by space and time, chose to use the mechanism of evolution to create you and

me, who are we to say that wasn't an absolutely elegant plan? And if God has now given us the intelligence and the

opportunity to discover his methods, that is something to celebrate.

I lead the Human Genome Project, which has now revealed all of the 3 billion letters of our own DNA instruction book.

I am also a Christian. For me scientific discovery is also an occasion of worship.

Nearly all working biologists accept that the principles of variation and natural selection explain how multiple species

evolved from a common ancestor over very long periods of time. I find no compelling examples that this process is

insufficient to explain the rich variety of life forms present on this planet. While no one could claim yet to have ferreted

out every detail of how evolution works, I do not see any significant "gaps" in the progressive development of life's

complex structures that would require divine intervention. In any case, efforts to insert God into the gaps of

contemporary human understanding of nature have not fared well in the past, and we should be careful not to do that
