On Wiesel's Night
I cannot teach this book. Instead,
I drop copies on their desks,
like bombs on sleeping towns,
and let them read. So do I, again.
The stench rises from the page
and chokes my throat.
The ghosts of burning babies
haunt my eyes.
And that bouncing baton
that pointer of Death,
stabs me in the heart
as it sends his mother
to the
blackening sky
Nothing is
the laws
of
science say,
only changed
The millions transformed into
precious smoke ride the wind
to fill our lungs and hearts
with their cries.
No, I cannot teach this book.
I simply want the words
to burn their comfortable souls
and leave them scarred for life.

Tayla and Tom inherit R120000from their grandmother.they must divide the money between them in the ratio 2:3how much money wiil each get?
answer

Answers

Answer:

II. Amount of money = R48,000

II. Amount of money = R72,000

Explanation:

Let the amount earned by Tayla be Ta.

Let the amount earned by Tom be T.

Given the following data;

Total amount of money = R120,000

Ratio of Ta to T = 2:3 = 2+3 = 5

To find the value of Ta;

[tex] Ta = \frac {2}{5} * 120000 [/tex]

[tex] Ta = \frac {240000}{5} [/tex]

Tanya, Ta = R48,000

For Tom;

[tex] Ta = \frac {3}{5} * 120000 [/tex]

[tex] Ta = \frac {360000}{5} [/tex]

Tom, T = R72,000

Check: 48000 + 72000 = R120,000

A People did not travel beyond their own community, so information and culture did not spread.B People who could not read also could not share information or culture.
C People could not access information or culture beyond their own community.
D All people who read also traveled and shared cultural information as they traveled.

Answers

The answer would be C. It says in the sentence that they couldn't share their information beyond their communities so people couldn't access it beyond that.

Where would you increase or decrease the amount of government spending?

Answers

I would increase government spending in natural disaster relief.

When the government decreases taxes, disposable income increases. That translates to higher demand (spending) and increased production (GDP). ... If the government were to keep taxes the same, but decrease its spending, it would have the same effect as a tax increase, but through a slightly different channel.

Answers

Answer:

a) Marchionini and Maurer (1995) did not see libraries as serving three roles in learning.

b) Virtual libraries often do not contain more up-to-date information.

c) The users of the Alexandria Digital Earth Prototype Library did not meet the four skill sets required for answering geographic questions.

Explanation:

Sentences are simple statements that may contain a simple subject, verb, and corresponding objects or complete thought. And to make sentences into the negative form, the most general and common way is to add "not" in the sentences.

And for past sentences, the negative form can be made by using the past form of the auxiliary or helping verb "do" which is "did + not+ the verb".

The given sentences or statements are made in their negative forms as follows-

a) Marchionini and Maurer (1995) did not see libraries as serving three roles in learning.

b) Virtual libraries often do not contain more up-to-date information.

c) The users of the Alexandria Digital Earth Prototype Library did not meet the four skill sets required for answering geographic questions.

c. He asked where the boat was. The he told them to hurry up because they were being chased.

d. The visitor asked the name of the beautiful building was.

e. The painter told me he had painted that picture.

f. He said he had not broken the glass.

Explanation:

The original sentences were written in direct speech, which means the exact words said by the characters or people were reproduced. For example:

- Tina said, "I don't think we should go now."

The reported speech does not directly reproduce the speaker's words. The quotation marks disappear, and the one reporting makes changes to what was said, especially concerning the subject, the verb tense, and time expressions. Take a look at the example below:

- Tina said, "I don't think we should go now." (direct) X Tina said she didn't think they should go then.

That is what we did in the sentences above. We reported what people said or asked by making changes. The subjects were substituted by the corresponding names or pronouns; the verb tenses were changed to their forms; and questions were structured as statements.

How does your communication style change based on whom you are interacting with? Is this something you do consciously? Why or why not?

Answers

yes it does.

one may want to appear more sophisticated and well read in front of those with higher social or intellectual status in order to gain approval and self worth.

I believe it's usually subconscious, as many want to make a good impression on someone, and may do that, for example, by refraining from using slang whilst in a job interview.

this is often referred to as "code switching".

Answer: your communication style does change

Explanation:

I usually do it around someone i want to make a good impression on. If you want to make a good impression the way you communicate with that person is going to make an impact and your communication style is going to change around who you’re hanging out with.

I think the answer is 3

Answer:

The correct answer is 2. I often think about taking a kickboxing class.

Explanation:

In this sentence, the modifier often is clearly linked to think. In the other two sentences, the modifier is not clear. It could go two ways. In I told Lucy when the test was over we should celebrate, it could mean that the person told Lucy they should celebrate after their test, or when the person saw Lucy after the test, she said they should celebrate.
