To which figures, who journeyed into the Underworld while still living, does Dante the Pilgrim compare himself? Select all that apply.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Aeneas

Explanation:

The options you were given are the following:

Charonthe Apostle Paulthe Virgin MaryAeneas

The Divine Comedy is a long Italian narrative poem written by Dante Alighieri in the 14th century. It is considered to be one of the greatest works of world literature. It consists of three parts: Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso, each of which tells about Dante's travels through one realm: Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise (Heaven).

In Hell, Dante encounters Virgil, who then leads him through Hell and Purgatory. He asks Virgil why he was chosen for this journey, comparing himself to Aeneas from Virgil's Aeneid and St. Peter, both of whom journeyed into the Underworld while still living. Dante claims that he's not nearly as great or heroic as these figures.

Based on this information, we can conclude that the correct answer is Aeneas.

Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.

Tom Stoppard's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, draws on two previous theatrical works: Shakespeare's Hamlet and Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead follows the "off-stage" exploits of two minor characters from Hamlet, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. While the two main characters in Stoppard's play occasionally make brief appearances in "Hamlet," as scripted in Shakespeare's original tragedy, the majority of the play takes place in other parts of the castle where Hamlet is set. While "off stage" in this way, the characters resemble the main characters in the absurdist Waiting for Godot. As in Beckett's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern pass the time by impersonating other characters, engaging in word play, and remaining silent for long periods of time. These same two characters were also featured in a parody of Hamlet, the short comic play by W. S. Gilbert entitled Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Gilbert's play makes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern into central characters and alters the storyline of Hamlet.

What is the author’s purpose in this passage?

a) To inform the reader about stage adaptations of Shakespeare’s characters.
b) To convince the reader that Shakespeare’s writing is out of date today.
c) To persuade the reader to explore more works by Shakespeare and others.
d) To question the reader about current understandings of Shakespeare’s writing.

Story: Growing Up Asian in America

Answers

Answer:

This story is significant for the author because he can see the family uniting in taking his grandmother, lined up and tidy, to the nursing home, being supported by those she supported, her children.

Explanation:

"Growing Up Asian in America" is reinforcing the role of the family in establishing self-recognition in a culture and in a people. This shows how the family has an important weight in each person's life, especially at the moment, when each individual is more fragile. This family concept is touching for the author when he sees the whole family helping to take his grandmother to a nursing home. The grandmother supported the children when they needed it and now it is her turn to receive their support.

Answer:

This story is significant to the author because during it she saw how her mother and relatives worked in unison to help and provide support for her grandmother who lived in her own home, but who also could no longer live alone. That is, they made sure she felt cared for and not forgotten, which must have made this transition in her life much easier to cope with. The text implies the author's grandmother perhaps accepted this change rather quickly and did not really resist as many other elderly people do. These people (from what I have heard) feel like they lose control over their lives and are abandoned by their children at these nursing homes, where they think that they only leave when they die. It is really quite sad when you think about it. However, this family made sure this women didn’t feel this way, and the author took note of it. Especially her mother's actions during this time, which truly conveyed her values and further helped to develop the the author’s description of her identity as a Japanese American women.

Explanation:

This is what I answered in my exam, I derived my answer from what I learned through out the essay on how the author ( Noda) viewed her mother and how this came to be in the section that was under "I am a Japanese American women". Her mother's actions in response to what was happening to Noda's grandmother really impacted Noda and on her perspective of Japanese women. So, well, she included this story in her essay, which also helped support one of her purposes ( her reason for writing), that is to reach acceptance with her own identity as a Japanese American woman. This is really important because at first Noda saw her mother as "a figure in whom I thought I saw all that I feared most in my self", which was fitting into the stereotype of Japanese people being only silent and passive.

I know its a long response, but I hope this helps you :)

Using a dictionary, look up the meaning of the word "average." In a few sentences, describe the differences in meaning you found. In what subject might you expect to hear each version of the word?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The word "average" can be represented as a number, meaning a central value, in the middle of two measures, or meaning the sum of several numbers, divided by the total of those numbers. At this point, the word "average" can also be considered as an adjective, as it has the ability to characterize something or someone.

Finally, this word can also behave like a verb, representing a central value that a given system must achieve in a given period of time.

Answer:

Definition 1: a number expressing the typical or central value in a set of data

                  * I would expect to see this definition in Mathematics.

Definition 2: The apportionment of financial liability resulting from loss of or damage to a ship or its cargo

                  * I would expect to see this definition used in History or Finance classes.

Definition 3: constituting the result obtained by adding together several quantities and then dividing this total by the total number of existing quantities.

                  * I would expect to see this definition in Mathematics.

Definition 4: achieve or amount to as an average rate or amount over a period of time

                  * I would expect to see this definition in English, Math, History, or Science. Any academics course could work with this because it measures over a period of time.

Please answer correctly, I will mark brainliest if I get this correct.

A. Attentive.

Explanation:

The baseball whizzed by my bat and the umpire called "Strike!" The crowd was silent but attentive as the pitcher prepared to throw what could be the final pitch of the championships.

In order to qualify the noun "crowd" and complement the action they were engaged in; an adjective such as "attentive" would be used.

Also, since the pitcher was throwing what could be considered to be the final pitch of the championships, the crowd would be attentive to see what the outcome is i.e whether or not it may lead to the opposition team earning a point.

The group of sentences best uses a variety of sentence patterns to convey meaning and relationship between ideas he jumped at the sudden noise, but no one was behind him. So he kept walking, glancing back over his shoulder to make sure he was alone.

What is noise?

Noise is an unwanted sound considered unpleasant, loud or disruptive to hearing. From a physics standpoint, there is no distinction between noise and desired sound, as both are vibrations through a medium, such as air or water. The difference arises when the brain receives and perceives a sound.

Acoustic noise is any sound in the acoustic domain, either deliberate or unintended. In contrast, noise in electronics may not be audible to the human ear and may require detection instruments. In audio engineering, noise can refer to the unwanted residual electronic noise signal that gives rise to acoustic noise heard as a hiss.

This signal noise is commonly measured using A-weighting or ITU-R 468 weighting.
