The history of UFOs.

Unidentified Flying Object (or “UFO”) is a term commonly used to describe lights or shapes in the sky. It was first coined by the United States Air Force in 1952 to describe sightings of mysterious objects in the sky that could not be explained even after careful investigation. Nowadays UFOs are spotted frequently, and feature in numerous movies and TV shows. Another popular name for such an object is, “Flying Saucer,” in reference to the round shape of many UFOs.

The first widely publicized UFO sighting was in 1947, by a pilot called Kenneth Arnold. Following this event, public sightings of UFOs increased dramatically. Movies and TV shows began featuring visitors from outer space, arriving on earth in flying saucers. With the popularity of these images, many people claimed to have seen lights in the sky. Some experts believe that people simply think they see UFOs because of the influence of TV and movies.
However, experts estimate that as little as 5% of these sightings could be called “unidentified.” Usually these lights are made by aircraft, satellites, or weather balloons. Top secret air force activities during the Cold War may have been responsible for many of the UFO sightings in America and Europe. Although not actually aliens, the secretive nature of these flying objects is definitely unidentified.

Another popular idea concerning UFOs concerns the role of world governments. Specifically, people believe that the US government has discovered alien life and operates a “cover-up” to hide the truth from the public. The most widely believed cover-up is that of the Roswell Incident. In July, 1947, a UFO supposedly landed in Roswell, New Mexico, and was examined and hidden by government agents. There have been many investigations into the Roswell Incident, however, these reports always claim that no such event occurred.

For your history project, you need to write a magazine article about the
attack on Pearl Harbor during World War II. Your teacher gives you
copies of real articles from American and Japanese newspapers from
the era. You notice that the American newspapers call the American
soldiers heroes, but the Japanese newspapers call the Japanese
kamikaze pilots heroes.
What can you infer about this assignment?
O Your teacher wants you to examine how point of view influences hero selection
Your teacher wants you to see that some newspapers are more accurate than others.
O Your teacher wants you to examine how the meaning of words changes over time.
O Your teacher wants you to see that not everyone understands the definition of a hero.

Answers

The correct answer is A. Your teacher wants you to examine how point of view influences hero selection

Explanation

Newspaper articles are primary sources of information because these documents report important events in an objective way for the knowledge of the general public. In addition, they serve to know first-hand events of the past. In this case, the teacher gives his students articles from Japanese and American newspapers to write an article on the attack on Pearl Harbor.

An interesting aspect of this activity is that the vision of both articles is different because each author has a different point of view about the event of Pearl Harbor. In this case, each one points out the soldiers or military personnel of their country as heroes because they share its ideals of struggle.

This activity is quite important to investigate because it allows students to know about an event through different points of view, and also learn more about it and have a broader vision of what happened.

So, the correct answer is A. Your teacher wants you to examine how point of view influences hero selection

Describe the importance of surah humazah​

Answers

Answer:

The Main statement in this Surah [Humazah] is the Consequences of man in loss. It condemns those who slander others, whether by speech or action, and imagine that their own wealth will keep them immune from death, and describes the doom of Hell which awaits them.

Explanation:

Answer:

Al Humazah means "The Traducer" in arabic.

The importance of this surah is that it teaches us that whoever slanders his people and shows ignorance is he/she that will suffer the consequences.

It also teaches us that wealth and money won't save us from موت (death in arabic).

This can link to the ayat number 185 in Surah Ali 'Imran which says the following:

Every soul will taste death. And you will only receive your full reward on the Day of Judgment. Whoever is spared from the Fire and is admitted into Paradise will ˹indeed˺ triumph, whereas the life of this world is no more than the delusion of enjoyment. (3:185)

Faith explains why she does not want her husband, Goodman Brown, to leave her overnight. Being alone makes her afraid and sends her troubling dreams. “This night . . . of all nights” may indicate Halloween, a particularly frightening night for those who believe in the Devil. However, Faith seems to fear her own imagination. Faith’s fear of dreaming foreshadows Brown’s experience in the woods: a possible dream that makes him fear himself, seeing himself as tainted with sin. Faith’s troubling dreams may be similar, since all members of their community obsess about the dangers of sin.

She talks of dreams, too. Methought as she spoke, there was trouble in her face, as if a dream had warned her what work is to be done to-night. But no, no; ’twould kill her to think it.

please help i will give brainliest Write an informative essay that explains the qualities of a hero and how to recognize heroes in your life.

Answers

Answer :

So firstly let us understand who's a hero . Hero is not someone with godlike or superhuman powers . Hero is the one who does a deed that won't only benefit him but many others as well . In our life there are two types of heroes : Reel life and real life . The ones in reel life are the main fictional character that saves everyone from danger and in other words is the good guy and king of all hearts . As it is wisely said that heroes are not born they are made . They become who they are after a lots n lots of struggle . The ones in real life are our soldiers , social workers etc. People like soldiers amd doctors not only work to earn money but they work to help others and they are ready to risk their life to save ours .. Qualities of a hero include bravery , inspirational , courageous , bold , fearless , amiable , gallant etc.

May that helps ;)

Answer:

When we think of heroes most of us think of movie stars or professional athletes, but it’s not always about your popularity or talent it can also be about how you help society. What I think make a great hero is someone who is able to overcome his or her obstacles in life, is highly motivated, and has plenty of bravery.

In order to be a successful hero you must be a highly motivated person. Without motivation you would not be very successful because you would have no ambition to try and make a difference in the world. A person that I consider a hero is Martin Luther King JR. He was a civil rights activist, Baptist minister, leader, fighter, and humanitarian. Mr. King fought for what was right and never gave up. H e used nonviolent approaches to get his point across and acted respectfully. Martin also was very brave to stand up for African-American citizens during a time which segregation and racism. Due to his courageous actions he was rewarded with the Nobel Peace Prize and other awards. Through his actions and beliefs many people looks to him as a leader and hero

Bravery is a great trait for a hero to posses. I think bravery is a key quality because you don’t always know what lies ahead of you and you have to be brave to continue. A good example of this is Charles Lindburgh. He was the first person to fly across the Atlantic Ocean. I believe that took a great amount of bravery because no one had ever made it across, so he didn’t know what lie ahead of him. One of his many good quotes he said, “The most effective way to do it, is to just do it”

In conclusion, Heroes comes in various shapes, colors, sizes, and has different qualities. There are people who are recognized as heroes because they have courage and they care enough for others to risk their lives. Or they are noticed as a hero because they have to be quick on their toes and care to the patients every need. Though, these made be some heroic people who make us safe in our day to day lives.

Reasons for the continuation of Gender based Violence​

Answers

Answer:

Justifications for violence frequently are on based gender norms – that is, social norms about the proper roles and responsibilities of men and women. These cultural and social norms socialize males to be aggressive, powerful, unemotional, and controlling, and contribute to a social acceptance of men as dominant.

Gender-based violence is deeply entrenched in patriarchal cultural perceptions and practices that reinforce injustice and powerlessness, particularly among women and girls.

As a consequence, both the incidence and brutality of gender-based violence also increase.
