ASAP plss help me plss it’s due today I will give brainlest! The subtitle of Gladwell's article asks, "How
different are dogfighting and football?" Does
he explicitly answer the queston? what does
he think? What do you think?
Answer:
The author of the article does not answer the question explicitly, but presents arguments that allow the reader to construct his own answer and see that dogfighting and football are not so different.
Explanation:
"How different are dogfighting and football?" is the subtitle of the article "Offensive Play" that presents a comparison between the violence of dogfighting and the violence of football games.
According to the article, dogfighting is illegal and somewhat inhuman and malicious, unlike football, these two elements have a lot in common. First of all, both football and dogfighting are extremely violent environments that can harm participants and in an intense and very debilitating way. In dogfighting, the dog's resistance and the ability to continue fighting is evaluated, even if it is seriously injured, since the dog that quits fighting is devalued and seen as inferior. In football, athletes are also judged on the resistance and strength they have, even in the midst of the violent blows they receive, and the player who does not resist is harassed by the crowd and even by teammates.
The author of the article presents these comparisons, stating implicitly that there are not so many differences between dogfighting and the football match, but allowing the reader to draw their own conclusions on the subject.
With the exception of Hawaii, the map shows the pattern of production for coffee beans by country. If the map was reproduced at the subnational state or provincial scale, as Hawaii is on the map, what changes in pattern would be expected in other parts of the world?
a. the inland provinces of African countries would not show any production
b. southeast Asian islands would notnshow any production
c. the states in northern Mexico and northern India would not show any production
d. the amazon basin and congo basin would not show concentrated areas of production
e. provinces in southern China would not show concentrated areas of production
Answer: C, The states in northern Mexico and northern India would not show any production. *
Explanation: Both the southern states of Mexico and India are known to produce coffee and I believe that their northern states produce little to no coffee. Additionally, East Africa and Southeast Asia are major producers of coffee beans so A and B are inaccurate.*
*This answer is not by any means entirely correct and is my own assumption but if you do a little research on the coffee production of Mexico and India, you will find that their southern states are often mentioned, and more so than their northern states.
