How can you apply the idea of "walk around in someone else's skin?" to your own life in a meaningful way?

!!plzzz answer!!

Answers

In my opinion the idea of “walk around in someone else’s skin basically means to put yourself in another persons position, and to try to understand how they would feel or act towards something. You can apply this to your own life in a meaningful way by thinking about how another person would feel instead of jumping to conclusions about a certain idea or event. For example you should never assume something about someone else, instead think about their perspective on things.

Describe the effects of low work wage and high inflation in 1948.

Answers

Answer:Most Americans believe that a rising tide should lift all boats—that as the economy expands, everybody should reap the rewards. And for two-and-a-half decades beginning in the late 1940s, this was how our economy worked. Over this period, the pay (wages and benefits) of typical workers rose in tandem with productivity (how much workers produce per hour). In other words, as the economy became more efficient and expanded, everyday Americans benefited correspondingly through better pay. But in the 1970s, this started to change.

3 Here, too, the slaves of all the other farms received their monthly allowance of food, and their yearly clothing. The men and women slaves received, as their monthly allowance of food, eight pounds of pork, or its equivalent in fish, and one bushel of corn meal. Their yearly clothing consisted of two coarse linen shirts, one pair of linen trousers, like the shirts, one jacket, one pair of trousers for winter, made of coarse negro cloth, one pair of stockings, and one pair of shoes; the whole of which could not have cost more than seven dollars. The allowance of the slave children was given to their mothers, or the old women having the care of them. The children unable to work in the field had neither shoes, stockings, jackets, nor trousers, given to them; their clothing consisted of two coarse linen shirts per year. When these failed them, they went naked until the next allowance-day.

This question is about "Treasure Island" that tells the story of how Jim Hawkins, a pirate, sailed in search of a treasure chest buried by another pirate. If we were Jim, we would, like him, think that the chest would be full of riches, metals and precious jewels that would make him rich. However, when Jim actually has access to the chest he discovers that the chest contained a few gold coins, a lot of oiled paper, a suit, a compass, pistols and a quadrant.

how does the author illustrate that communism has been largely unsuccessful in the countries that have adopted it

Answers

Answer:

The author illustrated that communism has been largely unsuccessful in the countries that adopted it by citing the examples of Joseph Stalin of the Soviet Union and Mao Zedong of China whose reigns as communist leaders resulted in mass killings, oppression of opposers, and dictatorship instead of the equity and equality that a communist society should be known for.  

Explanation:

The article, 'An Introduction to Communism', by Jessica McBirney explained that the most prominent founding father of the ideology of communism was Karl Marx. Marz envisioned a society in which the workers would form a revolution against the ruling class because they felt that they were being oppressed. Such revolutions did occur in Russia leading to the formation of the Soviet Union, as well as China.

However, the leaders of these societies did not really practice ideal communism for their rulerships were marked by the mass killing of political dissenters, and dictatorship by the rulers instead of the equality of social classes that Karl Marx proposed.

What is the Hero?

The Hero with a Thousand Faces was written by Joseph Campbell. It was a book that provides a route for negotiating the difficult road of modern society.

It examines the themes and phases of mythology as well as its significance to human everyday lives toward the existence of anybody desiring a completely fulfilled existence—by analyzing heroic tales in the context of contemporary psychology.

The author says that the hero who was initially supposed to accept the offer refused to take the adventure and for that reason only they are being punished to take that adventure and be a part of playing a hero in life. Therefore, option B is the correct option.

it won’t let me put the actual poem in so just look up the raven by edgar allen poe and it’ll pop up PLSS ANSWER ASAP PLS

Answers

Answer:

No poem in American -- or perhaps in English--poetry exploits assonance and alliteration more than The Raven.  These devices, coupled with repetition, result in an eerie, hollow, hypnotic effect throughout the poem--exactly what the poet wanted.  Poe uses end rhyme AND internal rhyme AND enjambment to further contribute to flow, both of sound and 'story' (plot, if you want)

Poe does truly get carried away at times throughout the poem, carried away to the point where the rhyme itself becomes more important than the content, as in "perched" in the these lines( and note that for a bird 'perched and 'sat' are virtually synonymous:

But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door—

Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door—

Perched, and sat, and nothing more

Most of the repeated vowel sounds in the poem are rounded and OPEN, contributing significantly to the hollow, echoing effect, then sharply contrasted by the short, unaspirated vowel of 'tap, tap'.  The poem is a structrural tour de force
