Original source:
Radio was a new thrill for many Americans in the 1920s, but it had extraordinary value for the isolated farm families of the Midwest, for whom solitude loomed as a daily problem. Radio was a source of music and fun, information and weather reports, and it was an easy way to enjoy the pleasure of other people's company. In-person visiting was a special event that often meant putting on dress clothes and serving cakes and lemonade and gathering politely in the parlor; frequently the press of chores or bad weather made that impossible. But with a radio, women could continue their housework as they listened to a friendly voice; men working in the barn had access to weather reports and farm programs.

One night, returning home, much intoxicated, from one of my haunts about town, I fancied that the cat avoided my presence. I seized him; when, in his fright at my violence, he inflicted a slight wound upon my hand with his teeth.

Read the passage and study the image from Sugar Changed the World. An ancient rock painting of a person climbing a cliff to harvest honey from a beehive. Bees are depicted flying around the person. Caption: Based on drawings from around 7000 BCE, this image depicts rock climbers finding honey in cliffs. This is the earliest known form of honey collecting. (Eva Crane, World History of Beekeeping and Honey Hunting). . . . A rock drawing in Spain from about 7000 B.C. shows a man who has climbed a hillside, found a crevice holding a hive, and is reaching in to grab the honey. Indeed, a lucky wanderer in just about any part of Europe, Africa, or Asia that wasn’t covered with ice could stumble on a hive and—at the risk of some stings—come away with a treat. (People in the Americas had no bees, so used syrups made from maple trees, agave cactus, or mashed fruits for their sweeteners.) Then someone figured out that you didn't have to be lucky. You could hollow out a log near bees, and they would make it their home. You could "keep" bees—you didn't have to find them. How does the image support the text? The image shows how people kept bees for their honey by using hollow trees. The image shows that people used mashed fruits as sweeteners instead of sugar. The image shows how ancient people collected honey before beekeeping began. The image shows an ancient person collecting sap from a maple tree for syrup.

Answers

Answer:

The image shows how ancient people collected honey before beekeeping began.

Explanation:

From the passage, it is clearly stated that from an ancient rock painting, people were depicted climbing beehives in cliffs to collect honey and also from the image, there are bees hovering around the person.

It was clearly stated that it was the earliest form of honey collecting.

A rock painting in Spain also lent credence to this by showing a man who climbed a hive and was collecting honey with few bees flocking around him.

The image supports the text by showing how ancient people collected honey before beekeeping began.

Integrity is more important than authority. Do you agree or disagree? Why?

Answers

Answer:

yes i agree, because its most to be loyal and honest rather than having unwanted authority towards other or things.

I agree because when you have integrity, you are able to build up authority. It is important to be firm in ones moral principals and to be able to spread that to those whom are willing to listen to you. With integrity, even to those who weren’t/aren’t willing to listen to you, your words will stay with them.

The words of a wise man never die, but of a stubborn one, the same cant be said.

Authority does not build integrity it builds tyranny and leads to things such as oppression, arrogance and the belief in which ones self if of more value and respect than others.

What is Authority worth if the people who are trying to rule over do not pay you no heed?

As given in the excerpt, the importance of the land and their sense of control over it is quite evident in the passage. Especially, when Tû ate his brothers to punish them, he appeared to be the strongest of them all. And his generations who later became the Maori tribe of New Zealand also felt the same sense of strength and ability to overcome others. And the description of these people as "humans who are able to master anything that they decide to conquer: the forest, the sea, the food, and the earth" seems to suggest or support that they feel in control of their land.

Give two examples from the story that show how the mood of the story becomes more
serious after Harrison has been shot.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

"Harrison Bergeron" is a short story by author Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. It is set in the year of 2081, when the American government has gone to great lengths to provide social equality. People who have advantages such as beauty, strength and intelligence are forced to wear handicaps. Harrison Bergeron is a tall, strong, handsome, and intelligent 14-year-old boy who, for those reasons, is forced to wear all sorts of handicaps to make him average. Harrison, however, decides to go against the status quo. He removes the handicaps, convinces a ballerina to do the same, and they both dance, elegantly soaring, while it is all being broadcast on television. The mood at this point is of lightness, relief, happiness:

And then, in an explosion of joy and grace, into the air they sprang!

Not only were the laws of the land abandoned, but the law of gravity and the laws of motion as well.

They reeled, whirled, swiveled, flounced, capered, gamboled, and spun.

They leaped like deer on the moon.

The studio ceiling was thirty feet high, but each leap brought the dancers nearer to it.

It became their obvious intention to kiss the ceiling. They kissed it.

However, the Handicapper General shoots and kills Harrison. This is the anti-climax of the story, the moment when readers are disappointed, having their hopes frustrated. The mood is now the opposite of what it had just been. Readers feel hopelessness and despair. Even Harrison's mother, who cannot understand what she has just watched due to her reduced intelligence, is sad about it:

You been crying" he said to Hazel.

"Yup," she said.

"What about?" he said.

"I forget," she said. "Something real sad on television."
