Arnold asks his parents, "Who has the most hope?" What group of people do you believe have the most hope? Why is it so important to have hope?

Answers

Hoping is for everyone.

Those homeless kids? They might be hoping for a meal tonight. That kid who keeps getting picked on? He's probably hoping to be left alone. That little girl who hears her parents arguing? She might be hoping that they'd just make up.

Hoping keeps people alive, in a way.

For example, when the Americans during the 1700's wanted their freedom from Britain, they started a war. They lost so many battles. If they had given up hope, then America would've still been under British rule.

If the world gave up hope when Hitler was massacring those Jews, there would be no more Jews left in the world, probably. Germany might have still been a dictatorship.

Hoping and wishing are almost the same. ALMOST. Wishing is almost always useless, face it. Who would hear and care about your wishes anyways? Wishes are for all sorts of things that we know we can't have, and that are almost always unrealistic. 'I wish I could be a millionaire.' 'I wish I could fly.' 'I wish I could eat as many pizzas as I'd like without getting full.'

Hopes are more realistic, more thoughtful, and much easier to achieve. 'I hope my mom stays alive.' 'I hope I can get this job interview.' 'I hope I can go to the park today.'

I hope this helps your answer! Good luck!

Answers

Answer:

d.  By asking girls to present themselves as boys in Afghanistan, they are further oppressed and controlled.

Explanation:

The article shows how Afghan policies oppress and limit women's rights, and it is necessary for girls to dress up as boys and pretend to be one, as a child, in order to have some rights and freedoms, until they reach puberty. Although this is the way some families have found to make the gatoras less oppressed, this custom is also a type of control and oppression since it prevents girls from being themselves since childhood.

what ironic situation does Shapiro describe in paragraph 3?​

Answers

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. Here's the remaining part of the question containing paragraph 3 (The Lessons of Salem  by Laura Shapiro).

"He was right: even now the Salem witch trials haunt the imaginations of hundreds of thousands of Americans, tourists, and history buffs alike, who visit Salem for a glimpse of our Puritan past at its most chilling. This year  "Salem is getting more attention than ever: the city is sponsoring an array of programs commemorating the Tercentenary, including dramatizations of the trials and symposiums of the legal and medical aspects of identifying witches in the 17th century. With the participation of such organizations as Amnesty International, the Tercentenary has placed a special emphasis on human rights and the role of the individual conscience in times of terror. In 1692, those who “confessed” to witchcraft were spared; only those who insisted on their innocence were hanged. Earlier this month a memorial to the victims was unveiled and on that occasion, the first annual Salem Award, created to honor a significant contribution to social justice, was presented to Gregory Allen Williams of  Inglewood, Calif. In the midst of the Los Angeles riots last spring, Williams, who is black, risked his life to save an Asian-American attacked by a mob.

Explanation:

Remember, the term ironic situation is used when a situation where an action brings about an unexpected effect no one imagined would occur. In other words, the resulting outcome is different from what was expected.

For example, Shapiro stated, "Salem is getting more attention than ever: the city is sponsoring an array of programs commemorating the Tercentenary [three hundredth anniversisary], including dramatizations of the trials and symposiums of the legal and medical aspects of identifying witches in the 17th century."

This is an ironic situuation because we learned from the previous paragraphs that those accused of been witches or devils were killed in other to stop the spread of such actions or kind of thinking. However, the very actions that were once condemned have become the subject of attention, with dramatizations of the trials, etc.

Which three parts of this excerpt from Edgar Allan Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death" highlight the suggestion that the powerful and wealthy in the story are insensitive toward the outbreak of the disease and those who are suffering?

The "Red Death" had long devastated the country. No pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. Blood was its Avatar and its seal—the redness and the horror of blood. There were sharp pains, and sudden dizziness, and then profuse bleeding at the pores, with dissolution. (The scarlet stains upon the body and especially upon the face of the victim, were the pest ban which shut him out from the aid and from the sympathy of his fellow-men.) And the whole seizure, progress and termination of the disease, were the incidents of half an hour. (But the Prince Prospero was happy and dauntless and sagacious. When his dominions were half depopulated, he summoned to his presence a thousand hale and light-hearted friends from among the knights and dames of his court, and with these retired to the deep seclusion of one of his castellated abbeys.) This was an extensive and magnificent structure, the creation of the prince's own eccentric yet august taste. A strong and lofty wall girdled it in. (This wall had gates of iron. The courtiers, having entered, brought furnaces and massy hammers and welded the bolts.) They resolved to leave means neither of ingress nor egress to the sudden impulses of despair or of frenzy from within. The abbey was amply provisioned. With such precautions the courtiers might bid defiance to contagion. (The external world could take care of itself. In the meantime it was folly to grieve, or to think. The prince had provided all the appliances of pleasure.) There were buffoons, there were improvisatori, there were ballet-dancers, there were musicians, there was Beauty, there was wine. All these and security were within. Without was the "Red Death." (It was towards the close of the fifth or sixth month of his seclusion, and while the pestilence raged most furiously abroad, that the Prince Prospero entertained his thousand friends at a masked ball of the most unusual magnificence.)

Answers

The parts of excerpt from Edgar Allan Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death" which highlight the suggestion that the powerful and wealthy in the story are insensitive toward the outbreak of the disease and those who are suffering are:

“But the Prince Prospero was happy and dauntless and sagacious.”  

“The external world could take care of itself. In the meantime it was folly to grieve, or to think.”

“The prince had provided all the appliances of pleasure.”

The story “The Masque of the Red Death" by Edgar Allan Poe is literally and allegorically about death. Prince Prospero wanted to hide from death but is left not rescued from it. He arranged a party where he invited people from his kingdom. He ordered to decorate the halls with single colors each. The last hall was colored black which symbolizes death and the windows were painted red. There was an ebony clock which strikes everyone’s attention at the passing of every hour. Though people were busy in the celebrating the party with music and orchestra but at every hour when the clock rings which caught everyone’s attention. The tone in which Poe describes the rooms, the clock, the ringing of the clock, the activities of the people and the entry of death in the party gives an insight about the play that death is inevitable. Death is the central theme of the play. The Poe wants to focus on the issue that no one can be rescued from death by applying any means.

Job 1:1 defines Job as a man "who was perfect and upright, and one that feared God and eschewed evil." The word perfect, often used in Scripture, usually means "spiritually mature." Job is called upright, which indicates that he was in fellowship with God. He is said to have feared God. In Scriptural parlance, this word demonstrates Job's trust in God, his preoccupation with God. He had faith in Him, and he rested in that faith. "And [he] eschewed [or turned away from] evil." Evil is negativity to God. Evil is the essence of Satan; whereas grace is the essence of God. Job turned away from evil. God knew Job's heart and knew he could be trusted with disaster. He had integrity before God, and God doubled His blessing on Job in the end. Main Idea?

Answers

Answer:

The main idea is that those who place their trust in God, live a life of righteousness and goodness and move away from the wicked and what God disapproves of, attain grace, strength, maturity of spirit and resilience from God.

Explanation:

The text above reflects on the situation of Job, a biblical character who followed the path and commandments of God, keeping himself away from what is evil and living according to the guidance of a good and powerful god. As a reward, he won the grace of God that provided him with spiritual maturity, faith, resilience, strength and confidence. All of these characteristics are given by God to those who walk according to his principles, according to the text.

Reread paragraphs 11–12 of “The Moral Logic of Survivor Guilt.” Explain the event the author describes in these paragraphs and how this event relates to the topic of survivor guilt.

Answers

Answer:

In these paragraphs, the author recounts an incident occurred in April 2003, in  Iraq. In this incident a young 20 years old Joseph Mayek was killed, and the officer in charge feel guilty that he was the one who placed vehicles.

This event contributes to the topic of 'survivor guilt' as the Army officer in charge feel guilty of an incident, which was just an accident and not his fault.

Explanation:

'The Moral Logic of Survivor Guilt' is an article written by Nancy Sherman. The article is regarding a 'survivor guilt' feeling that those feel for those who couldn't survive an accident.

'Survivor guilt' is a feeling that those feel about surviving an accident or trauma when their loved or closed ones couldn't.

In paragraphs 11-12, the author shares a story of an Army in charge officer, who feels guilty that one of a young man of 20s died while he was in-charge. He feels guilty because he was in-charge and it was his responsibility to place vehicles and set the security. Despite his placement that day in April 2003, in Iraq, Joseph Mayek was killed because of misfiring from a fighting vehicle. He was shot dead because of misfiring from the fighting vehicle. And Captain John Prior feels guilty of not placing the vehicles correctly which caused Joseph Mayek's life.

This event in paragraphs 11-12 contributes to the topic of 'survivor guilt' as Captain John Prior is having subjective guilt, an irrational guilt, knowing that he has done nothing wrong. This incident helps to understand how 'survivor guilt' takes root in the lives of people and how they feel guilty of even those things about which they could have done nothing.

C) Nature, in the form of the splashing waves, inspires and delights the speaker with its playfulness.

D) Nature, in the form of the incoming tide, amazes the speaker with its beauty and glory as it flows around her.

Answer:

A) Nature, in the form of the incoming tide, startles the speaker with its menace, anger, and strength.

Explanation:

Based on the excerpt from “I started Early—took my dog”, it is described by the speaker that he is moved by no man but he became aware of the tide when it started to rise over his body, threatening to eat him up.

The speaker is so moved by the tide because Nature, in the form of the incoming tide, startles the speaker with its menace, anger, and strength as it begins to rise and threaten to swallow him up.
