Write an informational paragraph about the Great Wall of China (100 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The Great Wall of China is the top ten new wonders of the world 2012. Located in China it stretches from Shanhaiguan in the east, to Lop Lake in the west. The entire wall is about 21,000 km long. The main part of the wall is 2,500 miles long and stretches through all sorts of mountains. The wall is thirty feet high and twenty-five feet thick at its base.

The Huns and barbarians had no farming land and they used to entre china and killed and invade the people for food and wealth. The wall was constructed to protect China and its people from Huns and barbarians and also restrict the entry of invaders coming from the Silk Road.

“There in the mist, enormous, majestic, silent and terrible, stood the Great Wall of China. Solitarily, with the indifference of nature herself, it crept up the mountain side and slipped down to the depth of the valley.” – W. Somerset Maugham

The construction of the wall started during the Qin dynasty at 221 BC. The emperor Qin Shih Huang aimed at protecting china from invaders who regularly attacked Chinese farming villages. The Great wall surrounded the central part of China, which was the most important part of China.

It took more than hundred years in completing The Great Wall. The wall started deteriorating with the passage of time because of natural disasters, strong winds dusts and storms. It was constructed again in the 15th century by Emperor Meng Tien.

I Dwell In Possibility

by Emily Dickinson

I dwell in Possibility –
A fairer House than Prose –
More numerous of Windows –
Superior – for Doors –

Of Chambers as the Cedars –
Impregnable of eye –
And for an everlasting Roof
The Gambrels of the Sky –

Of Visitors – the fairest –
For Occupation – This –
The spreading wide my narrow Hands
To gather Paradise –
Question 1

Part A

What is a key theme of "I Dwell in Possibility"?

Writing is superior to other occupations.
A solitary life is not worth living.
Being cut off from nature is a form of isolation.
The creation of art is a divine occupation.

Question 2

Part B

How does Emily Dickinson develop the theme indicated in Part A?

She beckons visitors to enter her home as often as they would like.
She mocks occupations that don't involve writing.
Dickinson compares poetry to living alone in isolation.
Dickinson describes writing poetry as gathering "Paradise."

Answers

Answer:  The answer for part A is "The creation of art is a divine occupation

and for Part b the answer is Dickinson describes writing poetry as gathering "Paradise."

Explanation: i used these answers and got 100% :)

'I Dwell in Possibility' is one of the poet's best works, and it is noted for its optimism and freedom of expression. The poem discusses the benefits of observation and creativity.

PART A:

Correct Option is D.

The poet's force is evident in the poem's final three line." Spreading out tiny Hands/ To gather Paradise-,"both for herself and others, is her"Occupation,"her duty,and her livelihood.

PART B:

Correct Option is D.

Despite Dickinson's often inconsistent capitalization, the capitalization of "Hands" here, so close to "Paradise," gives the poet's hands a God-like appearance. This demonstrates how, like divinity, the poet's role is that of a creator.

What is a project?

A project is any endeavor that is deliberately planned to accomplish a certain goal, whether it is carried out alone or in collaboration with others and may involve research or design.

An alternate perspective describes a project as a series of connected tasks that must be completed within specific time, budget, and other constraints.

A project could be a transient social structure with teams working under time limitations to complete certain tasks. A project may be used as an ad hoc system or as part of a larger program management framework.

Open-source software "projects" and musical "projects" by artists may not have clearly defined team members, exact planning, or time constraints.

Project cancellation occurs when a project is stopped before it is finished, and it typically involves stopping access to funds and other project resources.

Cost overruns, timetable delays, budget modifications, alteration or elimination of the project's aim, political reasons, or any combination of those and other causes could lead to project cancellation.

Many scholars have characterized Dr. Faustus's resistance to God as "willful." Do you agree or disagree with this label? Your answer should be at least 250 words.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Faust had a stubborn resistance to God at the beginning of history, because at that moment, he has the free will of his choices, but chooses to depart from the precepts of God, because he feels the need to turn himself into God and act according to his own will. In this case, we can agree with the students regarding Faust's obstinacy.

However, in the course of history, when he sells his soul to Mephistophilis, he loses all his free will and is therefore unable to maintain this obstinacy. At that moment, the rule of God that he presents is not the result of obstinacy, but the result of the loss of his soul.

Answers

Answer:

Hopless

Explanation:

hope it helps .....

Answer:

I believe the tone of this passage is that the narrator loves the old man, not for things like his gold eye, but for things like the fact that he never wronged nor hurt the narrator.

Explanation:

By definition, the tone of a piece of writing is, "The tone of the passage represents the author's sentiment or attitude towards the subject being discussed."

As you can see, the passage is all about the narrator's love for the old man. The narrator says that the old man never hurt her nor wronged her, and that is why they loved him. The narrator also mentioned the old man's gold eye, which I assume is rare/highly desired. But to sum it all up, the narrator is saying that they love the old man, not for selfish reasons like greed and money, but for the kind actions the old man takes and the fact that the old man never hurt the narrator.

C. a place to store sound data.

D. a network of different songs.​

Answers

Answer: the answer is C. a place to store sound data.

An audio file provides a place to store sound data. Option C is correct.

What do you mean by audio file?

On a computer system, digital audio data is stored in an audio file format. The audio coding format, which refers to the bit structure of the audio data (excluding metadata), can be uncompressed or compressed to shrink the file size, frequently utilizing lossy compression. The data can be an audio coding format's raw bitstream, but it is typically embedded in a container format or an audio data format with a specified storage layer.

It's critical to understand the differences between an audio codec, the container that houses raw audio data, and audio coding formats. The raw audio data is encoded and decoded using a codec, and the encoded data is then (often) stored in a container file.

Further a multimedia container format (such as Matroska or AVI) may handle many types of audio and video data, although the majority of audio file formats only support one type of audio coding data (produced with an audio coder).

Therefore an audio file that has been compressed without losing any information is called a lossless file. The compressed data can be used to reconstitute the original, uncompressed data.
