Answer:
- after using numerous instruments to measure weather conditions Hackness is sure that dense fog is coming.
Explanation:
As per the excerpt provided, the first option i.e. 'after...coming' most adequately narrates that how the setting(context and circumstances) affects the strengthened belief of Hackness that he could rightly conclude the upcoming weather condition in that specific region. The descriptions display that he possessed specific instruments that could measure sunlight, atmospheric weight, the pressure of the winds, etc. through which he was able to deduce aptly that London might face a dense fog situation. These equipments gave him the desired confidence to estimate actual data regarding the weather condition and make justified conclusions. Thus, the first option is the correct answer.

All of the following are inferences we can make from Thomas Paine's The American Crisis except
Click here to read an excerpt from The American Crisis.
he supported the revolutionary cause
o he wanted people to support the English king
he wanted to inspire people to support the revolutionary cause
Answer:
he wanted people to support the English king
Explanation:
According to the excerpt from The American Crisis, the author Thomas Paine writes to encourage the American public to support the revolutionary cause against the British and to remind them that real patriots hold true to their beliefs even in difficult times.
Therefore, one inference that we can't make from the book is that he wanted people to support the English king, as this goes against the message of revolution against Britain.

“The superpower that I want is the ability to fly. I'd save those in danger when travelling by air. “If I had one superpower, I'd like to create electricity. I would go to all the far places in the world and give them electricity so that the lives of people living there would become easier.”
Read the passage from "By the Waters of Babylon.”
Then I saw the dead god. He was sitting in his chair, by the window, in a room I had not entered before and, for the first moment, I thought that he was alive. Then I saw the skin on the back of his hand—it was like dry leather. The room was shut, hot and dry—no doubt that had kept him as he was. At first I was afraid to approach him—then the fear left me. He was sitting looking out over the city—he was dressed in the clothes of the gods. His age was neither young nor old—I could not tell his age. But there was wisdom in his face and great sadness. You could see that he would have not run away. He had sat at his window, watching his city die—then he himself had died. But it is better to lose one's life than one's spirit—and you could see from the face that his spirit had not been lost. I knew, that, if I touched him, he would fall into dust—and yet, there was something unconquered in the face.
Which detail most effectively creates an atmosphere of decay?
“But there was wisdom in his face and great sadness.”
“But it is better to lose one's life than one's spirit.”

Explanation:
In the Great Gatsby chapter 4, what happens when Nick and Gatsby run into Tom Buchanan, ?
Answer:
Nick ists all of the people who attended Gatsby’s parties that summer, a roll call of the nation’s most wealthy and powerful people. He then describes a trip that he took to New York with Gatsby to eat lunch. As they drive to the city, Gatsby tells Nick about his past, but his story seems highly improbable. He claims, for instance, to be the son of wealthy, deceased parents from the Midwest. When Nick asks which Midwestern city he is from, Gatsby replies, “San Francisco.” Gatsby then lists a long and preposterously detailed set of accomplishments: he claims to have been educated at Oxford, to have collected jewels in the capitals of Europe, to have hunted big game, and to have been awarded medals in World War I by multiple European countries. Seeing Nick’s skepticism, Gatsby produces a medal from Montenegro and a picture of himself playing cricket at Oxford.
Gatsby’s car speeds through the valley of ashes and enters the city. When a policeman pulls Gatsby over for speeding, Gatsby shows him a white card, and the policeman apologizes for bothering him. In the city, Gatsby takes Nick to lunch and introduces him to Meyer Wolfsheim, who, he claims, was responsible for fixing the 1919 World Series. Wolfsheim is a shady character with underground business connections. He gives Nick the impression that the source of Gatsby’s wealth might be unsavory, and that Gatsby may even have ties to the sort of organized crime with which Wolfsheim is associated.
After lunch in New York, Nick sees Jordan Baker, who finally tells him the details of her mysterious conversation with Gatsby at the party. She relates that Gatsby told her that he is in love with Daisy Buchanan. According to Jordan, during the war, before Daisy married Tom, she was a beautiful young girl in Louisville, Kentucky, and all the military officers in town were in love with her. Daisy fell in love with Lieutenant Jay Gatsby, who was stationed at the base near her home. Though she chose to marry Tom after Gatsby left for the war, Daisy drank herself into numbness the night before her wedding, after she received a letter from Gatsby. Daisy has apparently remained faithful to her husband throughout their marriage, but Tom has not. Jordan adds that Gatsby bought his mansion in West Egg solely to be near Daisy.
Nick remembers the night he saw Gatsby stretching his arms out to the water and realizes that the green light he saw was the light at the end of Daisy’s dock. According to Jordan, Gatsby has asked her to convince Nick to arrange a reunion between Gatsby and Daisy. Because he is terrified that Daisy will refuse to see him, Gatsby wants Nick to invite Daisy to tea. Without Daisy’s knowledge, Gatsby intends to come to the tea at Nick’s house as well, surprising her and forcing her to see him.

3-5 specific, strong factsb
about the injustice
Please write in ur own words and not copy and paste.
Please give helpful anwsers or I'll report you!
Answer:
Injustice is a quality relating to unfairness or undeserved outcomes. The term may be applied in reference to a particular event or situation, or to a larger status quo. In Western philosophy and jurisprudence, injustice is very commonly—but not always—defined as either the absence or the opposite of justice.
The sense of injustice is a universal human feature, though the exact circumstances considered unjust can vary from culture to culture. While even acts of nature can sometimes arouse the sense of injustice, the sense is usually felt in relation to human action such as misuse, abuse, neglect, or malfeasance that is uncorrected or else sanctioned by a legal system or fellow human beings.

Cancer in the bones can cause calcium to be released into the bloodstream.High levels of calcium can cause you to become unconscious and eventually die. The liver is the chemical factory of the body. It carries out many tasks and is very important .

What does this quote means.?
You can't
always have
a good day.
But you
can
always
face
a bad day
with
a good
attitude.
"You can't always have a good day but you can always face a bad day with a good attitude."
It means that life doesn't always go the way we want, sometimes it gives us the happiest moments and sometimes it gives us the deepest wounds. Glee and gloom both possess the same amount. Today you are happy because everything is just the way you want but someday it might change and leave you sad. We never know what's coming next but what matters the most is our attitude towards life, the way we face it. You cannot always have everything settled and good in your life but you can always have the spirit to confront any predicament that comes in the way. You must accept the life in a way it comes to you with a positive attitude.
“Candide:” Which of the following inferences is best supported by the excerpt?
The castle of Westphalia seems like a utopia but there are many darker sides
to it.
b) The castle of Westphalia is ruled by strong women.
c) Physical appearances are not important in Westphalia.
d) Candide is given respect because of his noble birth.
Answer:
D. Candide is given respect because of his noble birth is the following inferences that best supported by the excerpt.
Explanation:
Voltaire was a French historian and one of the greatest writers from the Age of Enlightenment period.
Voltaire’s Candide has many themes, but the most central is the inadequacy of optimistic thinking.
Candide was a protest against a naive optimism that ignored the granite might of human meanness, ignorance, and irrationality.
Candide is an illegitimate son of the Baron's sister and stays in the castle of Westphalia.
He gets an education in the castle from Pangloss who taught him, "all is for the best in this best of all possible worlds".
Therefore we can conclude that Candide is given respect as being noble birth.
Thus option D. Candide is given respect because of his noble birth is the correct option.

Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 3, scene 2.
ANTONY. Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend1445
me your ears.
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interrèd with their bones.
So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus
Hath told you Caesar was ambitious.1450
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Caesar answered it.
Here, under leave of Brutus and the rest—
For Brutus is an honourable man,
So are they all, all honourable men—1455
Come I to speak in Caesar’s funeral.
He was my friend, faithful and just to me.
But Brutus says he was ambitious,
And Brutus is an honourable man.
He hath brought many captives home to Rome,1460
Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill.
Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?
When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept.
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
Yet Brutus says he was ambitious,1465
And Brutus is an honourable man.
You all did see that on the Lupercal
I thrice presented him a kingly crown,
Which he did thrice refuse. Was this ambition?
Which conclusion does this excerpt best support?
Antony agrees with Brutus’ definition of ambition.
Antony wants to make the people angry by manipulating the words of Brutus and favoring Caesar.
Antony believes that Brutus and the others are as virtuous as Caesar.
Antony wishes that Caesar would have been more generous and a better friend.
47
Answer:
Antony wants to make the people angry by manipulating the words of Brutus and favoring Caesar.
Explanation:
In the excerpt of Antony's speech above, he clearly does not agree with Brutus' description of Caesar as an ambitious person. The rhetorical questions he asked and the answers to them show clearly that Caesar was not ambitious. Surely, a person who wept with the poor and three times rejected kingly crown was in no way an ambitious person.
While Brutus castigated Caesar in his speech, Antony helped the people see his good side. When he later showed the crowd the will left by Caesar where every citizen had a share in Caesar's wealth, the people then clearly understood that Brutus and Cassius were the traitors.

Read the sentence and answer the question.
After confirming news of the Prince's engagement to Lady Violet, the
Crown issued an official proclamation that created a media storm.
This sentence uses which figurative device?
Select one:
- Metonymy
- Synecdoche
- Metaphor
- Apostrophe
Answer:
Metonymy
Explanation:
The first thing I want to look at is the definition of each figurative device.
Metonymy - the substitution of the name of an attribute or adjunct for that of the thing meant, for example, suit for business executive, or the track for horse racing.
Synecdoche - a figure of speech in which a part is made to represent the whole or vice versa, as in Cleveland won by six runs (meaning “Cleveland's baseball team”).
Metaphor - a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.
Apostrophe - a speech or address to a person who is not present or to a personified object, such as Yorick's skull in Hamlet.
After looking at these definitions I have concluded that the correct option is metonymy referincing to "Crown" as being a replacement to the royal family or the king in either case.
