Arming suggests that Brutus will face whatever happens with strength.

Answers

Answer:

D. Arming suggests that as a warrior prepares for battle, Brutus has prepared himself for whatever happens with strength.

Explanation:

EDGE 2022

Arming suggests that Brutus will face whatever happens with strength. The correct option is D.

Who was Shakespeare?

Shakespeare was a playwright, poet, and actor from England. He is largely recognized as the greatest English-language author and the greatest playwright in history.

He is frequently referred to as the "Bard of Avon" and England's national poet.

Shakespeare most likely chose the word arming over one like providing because, according to the text, "arming signifies that Brutus would face whatever happens with strength."

Given that Brutus expressed anxiety for what might happen to him, it is obvious that he is pursuing patient life-arming.

This implies that he was prepared to deal with whatever came his way. His armament is a sign of his power.

Thus, the correct option is D.

I Need the exposition, Complication, climax and resolution of "THE SECRET BY ARTHUR C. Clarke"

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The Secret" is about a math reporter, named Henry Cooper, who goes to the Moon in 1959, to write a series of publicity articles for the U.N.S.A space division. Although he was invited by the U.N.S.A to provide favorable articles that might sway public opinion before the beginning of the budget deliberations, he finds, on this visit, he is much less welcomed than he was on his last trips there. He begins to suspect that a secret is being kept from him and becomes increasingly curious. A few days later his friend, the police commissioner, takes him to a remote lab.

In the lab Cooper confronts one of the head scientists, who becomes convinced that the only way to keep the reporter silent is to bring him in on the secret. The secret, the scientist explains, is rather obvious when you come to think about it, and it's a wonder humankind hasn't thought of it in advance. On Earth the human heart pumps - over several decades - many gallons of blood upstream. Gravity tugs and pulls on the organs and tissues. On the Moon, however, everything is six times lighter than on Earth. The erosion of gravity is six times weaker. Who knows, concludes the scientist, how many years that might add to the human life expectancy? People could live up to 200 years of age.

The reporter is then confronted with the sheer numbers of Earth's population - over six billion huddled together with not enough food and not enough space, relying on "sea farms" to provide food without sacrificing land.

Will mark bigbrain if correct!
The typical apprenticeship with a Japanese traditional boatbuilder lasts six years, during which an apprentice can expect to spend a lot of time sweeping the shop floor and sharpening tools while watching the master ply his trade. Work is conducted in silence, questions are answered elliptically, if at all, and, by the end, the master will have withheld key pieces of knowledge that the apprentice is expected to acquire through guile or outright theft.
Even in Japan, where traditional crafts are revered, this system is too grueling, too much at odds with modern life, to survive. It is no wonder, then, that as a generation of Japanese boatwrights has retired, their knowledge has retired with them. Vermont boatbuilder Douglas Brooks is trying to ensure that the centuries-old designs for fishing boats and water taxis don't follow these craftsmen to the grave.
For more than two decades, Brooks has researched traditional boatmaking in Japan, and has done short, nontraditional apprenticeships to record boat designs. Ordinarily, no Westerner would have a hope of learning in a few weeks what usually takes years of patient observation to acquire.
"They're willing to teach me because they realize what's about to be lost," Brooks says.
The challenge of preserving this art is largely pedagogical, and that's the subject of "Ways of Learning," a slide talk Brooks gives through the Vermont Humanities Council's speakers bureau. Through his talk, Brooks has stimulated a debate about how traditional crafts are handed down. His American audiences expect collegiality and dialog between student and teacher and are often shocked to hear about the Japanese method.
"Japanese craftspeople do not teach in a way that's familiar to us as Westerners," Brooks says. In part, that's because the apprentice is meant to develop a set of values as well as a set of skills. They must learn how to observe, and they must learn patience and cunning.
Of the five masters Brooks has learned from, only two had drawings of their boat designs, and even those were incomplete. Unless an apprentice was the master's son, he could expect to have to steal essential pieces of knowledge from the master, either by sneaking into the shop to take measurements or by some other subterfuge. One master told Brooks of how he had plied his own master with sake to unlock his secrets.
When Brooks learned to braid the hoops that hold together a taraibune, the traditional tub boat still used for gathering shellfish and seaweed off Japan's Sado Island, his teacher, then the last man still making the boats, gave him the long bamboo strands and walked away.
"I remember the hairs going up on the back of my neck when my teacher dropped those strips in my lap and said 'braid,'" Brooks says. It was, he adds, "the most focused, concentrated moment of my life."
Traditional apprentices developed a thorough understanding of the task at hand, typically the construction of a single type of boat. "The people who come through this kind of process possess just extraordinary skills. That's the result of those six years." They would talk about their craft with a commitment and a sense of identity that you never hear in the West, he says.
But there's also something to be said for the ease of the American way of transmitting knowledge. "We just water down everything, but we sure are plucky and democratic about it," Brooks said. He once taught a student in a more Western way how to braid the taraibune hoops "and in twenty minutes he was braiding hoops." Brooks also has written a book on how to make a taraibune.
The Japanese view of traditional crafts, ranging from boatbuilding to pottery and papermaking, is changing, slowly. In the past decade, Brooks says he has started to see craft schools opening up. "A man who spent six years of his life in an apprenticeship learning a craft does not believe it can be put in the pages of a book," a stance Brooks largely agrees with. But the future of these crafts hangs in the balance.

What is a central idea of the excerpt?

A.
Americans are surprised that the Japanese art of boat building is taught using unconventional methods.
B.
The Japanese art of boat building may be lost because it is taught using unconventional methods.
C.
The Japanese art of boat building is a difficult skill to learn.
D.
Americans are unfamiliar with the Japanese art of boat building.

Answers

Answer:

I'm leaning between A and D, but I believe that the prompt is more close to A.

Explanation:

They talk about how the methods they use to teach the art of building a boat are different. They explain this by saying they mostly spend time sweeping and doing other tasks, till thier apprentice gives them a real task.

Descriptive details in this passage don't help us understand how Gomez gets her results of why she makes the kitten glow. That is not their purpose. They help us visualize, not understand. This is why the two last options are the only ones we should consider. However, the passage tells us about a kitten, which is why the third option is incorrect. There are no adult cats in the scene.

This is why the last option is the correct one - the descriptive details in the passage help us picture a cute little glowing kitten.

Read this excerpt from "Herd about the Flu."

Herd about the Flu

It's winter and the flu is raging. It's in your school, you know people who have caught it, and you are washing your hands for the fifth time. Missing school because of flu might not sound so bad, but the flu is one of the worst viruses you can have. The chills, the fever, the severe aches in your legs and arms . . . It's not something you want. Your mom drives you to the drugstore and you see a sign: No Flu Shots Available.

Wait a minute—there is a bad flu this season. You need the shot.

Where is the shot, and why can't you get it?

There are several answers to these questions. First, it just may not be ready. Flu viruses change all of the time, so new flu vaccines must be produced every year, and they take months to develop in research labs.

What is the purpose of the lines that are underlined?

These are answers to topic questions, and the paragraphs after them explain the answers.

After the second heading, we get an explanation about why we can't get the flu shot.
