Read this excerpt from "Why No Policeman on the Block?"

Any neophyte surfing the Net for the first time will be frustrated by the fact that it has no intelligence whatsoever; like a newborn baby, it is a blank slate. Worse, there are no rules or traffic cops, no regulations or even directory of the Internet.

What is the author’s purpose for including this statement?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

To prove that the Internet needs improvement.

Explanation:

Michio Kaku's "Visions" presents the many scientific revolutions that have shaped and changed the way the internet has developed in the twentieth century. It is the author's belief that such developments would continue to alter and revolutionize our daily lives, be it in the domestic sphere or education, workplaces, and how the virtual world would be more significant.

In the given passage from "Part Two: The Computer Revolution," he comments how "blank" the internet is. By commenting that "any neophyte" who wanted to seek information from the internet would be left frustrated with the lack of information, Kaku points out that the internet does not have any security. To him, "there are no rules or traffic cops, nor regulations or even directory of the Internet." So, he seems to suggest that the internet needs improvement.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

Lines 18–29: Explain the first reason that King gives for taking a stand on Vietnam. Is this a logical reason for his view that the war should be stopped? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Hello. Although you have not presented the text to which this question refers, we can see, through the context of the question, that you are referring to Martin Luther King's speech against the Vietnam War.

In this speech, King presents seven reasons why the Vietnam War should be ended. Among these reasons, the first states that the war must be ended, because it harms American families that are poor. He says that this is because the American government donated financial aid to the country's poor families and that aid was the only means of survival for these people. However, with the expenses of the war, the government had to cut spending and one of those expenses was financial aid to poor families, that is, King claimed that the war promoted the spending of money that would be better used if it was used to help Americans. This reason is very logical because it is a fact, proven by evidence and supporting details, in addition to pointing out a very realistic and identifiable social situation.

How does Lenina react to the environment and people at the Reservation? What does the fact that she condemns it as "queer" tell you about her conditioning?

Answers

Answer:

She saw the people of the reserve with disgust and is uncomfortable and disgusted by everything she is seeing, mainly because of the amount of garbage and flies. From inside the reserve she can see the buildings in Malpais and condemns them as "queer", since they seem totally out of place from where she is.

Explanation:

This question is about "Brave New World" a novel about a futuristic society completely modified and that presents the equality between all classes through a constant process of manipulation and limitation. In this book, we meet the character Lenina, who is a member of this futuristic society and who is very well established in the way of life that society establishes. One day Lenina is taken to Malpais, a reserve of people who live completely contrary to the rules of the society to which Lenina is a member. In Malpais people live without any control and behave in a primitive and wild way.

Lenina thinks Malpais is strange, filthy and disgusting. She sees the buildings as "queer" without technology, stinky and unpleasant. This is also her thinking about people and the bucolic environment. She holds this view for a long time, because she was taught and conditioned to believe that only the way she lived was the right one.

Compare and contrast the teacher and the student in, 'The Last Lesson', highlighting the changes observed in their character.

Answers

Answer:

Find the comparison below.

Explanation:

In 'The Last Lesson', by Alphonse Daudet, the student in the story was initially described as an unserious student who did not really pay attention in class. He was distracted by play and a lot of other inconsequential things. The teacher was also described at the onset as a strict instructor who chided his students when they failed at something.

On learning that French will no longer be taught in schools, the teacher was overcome with so much guilt as much as the student who blamed himself for not taking his studies seriously. The teacher regretted sending the student on holidays when he wanted to go fishing while the student regretted not putting in more efforts to study and learn French.

Two cyclists launched on a hilly race. one in every of them sprints off, growing the primary hill as fast as he can. the opposite cyclist trigger off at a gentle pace and watches because the other racer disappears over the crest of the primary hill.
The slower cyclist carries on, stopping for a coffee and a cake, along the thanks to top up his energy before setting off again with freshly filled water bottles from the café.
A short while later he's happily pedaling up the ultimate hill when he sees a coughing, sweating wreck of a cyclist lying by the side of the road just some feet from the goal.
"Whatever happened to you?" the slow cyclists asks.
Through his wheezing, the faster cyclist explains how he exhausted himself, keeping off too quickly. His water bottles are empty leaving him too thirsty to swallow, his stomach rumbling with hunger.
The slow cyclist kindly handed the sweating heap at the roadside a full bottle and a bit of cake from his jersey he had been saving for later and slowly continued on, lungs filled with air, to the finish to gather his first prize.

HISTORICAL ALLUSION: The slang term "G-men"

Brief source description: The slang term G-men (short for "Government Man") has been used to describe government agents such as Secret Service agents and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents. Although they are generally held in high regard, there have been controversies surrounding them since the agencies were created. The FBI has investigated dissident militant and non-violent political organizations within the United States. There has been speculation whether the investigations had merit.

Write a summary about the advantages and disadvantages of having a tram system in a city.
Your summary should be about 80 words long.you should use your own words as far as possible.

(Please answer this fast I’m going yo fail)

Answers

Answer:

A tram is a vehicle that runs on tracks, such as a train or a metro. Compared to the train, the requirements that the vehicles and infrastructure must meet are lower. In many cases the rails are on the public road, so that the tram runs between the other traffic. This is especially common with the "city tram", which provides public transport within a municipality or conurbation. Trams (unlike other rail vehicles) are equipped with direction indicators and brake lights for street driving.

Thus, as a positive aspect, the tram adds a method of public transport to cities, which makes life easier for citizens, who do not necessarily have to depend on their private cars to move around the city. However, on the negative side, trams can cause traffic problems such as traffic jams or accidents, since they circulate on the street like other cars.

Which sentence in this excerpt from Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Four Freedoms” speech suggests that the US government would gain more power to prepare for war?
The Congress, of course, must rightly keep itself informed at all times of the progress of the program. However, there is certain information, as the Congress itself will readily recognize, which, in the interests of our own security and those of the nations that we are supporting, must of needs be kept in confidence.

New circumstances are constantly begetting new needs for our safety. I shall ask this Congress for greatly increased new appropriations and authorizations to carry on what we have begun.

I also ask this Congress for authority and for funds sufficient to manufacture additional munitions and war supplies of many kinds, to be turned over to those nations which are now in actual war with aggressor nations.

Our most useful and immediate role is to act as an arsenal for them as well as for ourselves. They do not need man power, but they do need billions of dollars worth of the weapons of defense.

The time is near when they will not be able to pay for them all in ready cash. We cannot, and we will not, tell them that they must surrender, merely because of present inability to pay for the weapons which we know they must have.

I do not recommend that we make them a loan of dollars with which to pay for these weapons—a loan to be repaid in dollars.

One of the greatest architectural achievements of all time is the Burj Dubai, which is located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates
(UAE). Although the towering structure is still under construction, it has already past the height of the former tallest building
in the world. The Taipei 101 in Taipei, Taiwan, held the title for about fours years before the Burj Dubai sprouted higher. Not
only is the Burj Dubai currently the world's tallest building, but also the world's tallest freestanding structure. The CN Tower
in Toronto, Canada, held that title until 2008, when the Burj Dubai eclipsed it. When finished, the Burj Dubai will stand over
160 stories high and will have taken over five years and tons of reinforced concrete, steel, and glass to complete. Upon
completion, the building will house both residential and commercial spaces including business suites, fitness facilities, hotels,
luxury pools and spas, and an observation platform. Because of its enormous size, the builders of Burj Dubai took care to
make it resistant to the effects of winds and earthquakes. The building has a special design that will help prevent a

To take a picture with the camera all you had to do was insert a cartridge of film into the camera, close the shutter, and aim the camera at whatever you want to take a picture of. The film was small and could be replaceable, this also meant the film was easy to save once it was all used up.
