Answer:
Yes surely, both of the men Muni and American got their way.
Explanation:
Muni was a a poor man who used to live in a small village in Tamil with his wife. He only knew two words of English, that were yes or no.
One day his wife asks him to buy her some food, but he didn't have any money. He goes to the shop, but the shopkeeper kicks him out because he already had a lot of debt. Next day, when Muni takes his goats out of grazing, he stops for a quick rest under a horse statue, where suddenly an American appears. The American, thinking that Muni was the owner, got interested in buying the horse statue, and made an offer. Muni, who couldn't understand English, thought that the American made an offer for his goats, and he sold them because he needed money. Later he realized that the goats were still at his home, but the statue was missing.
If we think about it, both Muni and the American got what they wanted, even if it was through a confusion. Muni wanted money for food, which he got from the American, the American wanted the horse statue, which he took after paying Muni.

how does the ghost of christmas past act towards scrooge?
The Ghost of Christmas Past is the first spirit to visit Scrooge after the ghost of Marley. It arrives as the clock chimes one. It is an ephemeral spirit that appears to be both old and young at the same time with light streaming from the top of its head. It takes Scrooge to scenes from his own past, showing him visions of his own childhood, of his young adulthood and of happier times. The final scene he presents is one that Scrooge cannot bear to witness: his lost love, Belle, with her family. Scrooge turns on the ghost and demands to be shown no more. He attempts to extinguish the ghost's light with its own cap, wrestling it to the ground. However, the light that shines from the ghost cannot be put out.
Answer:
The past ghost is a reminder of what once was. Scrooge, after being shown numerous events of past Christmas', shouts "No more!" and tries to put out the Ghost's light by covering the ghost; Scrooge wants to extinguish the Ghost.
While on their trips, you can see that the Ghost cares for Scrooge since the Ghost notices Scrooge trembling and crying from visiting past memories. Scrooge is reminded from these events that he would spend his past holidays alone, which is what made him sob out in the first place (well it depends on which version of Christmas Carol you're listening too).
The Ghost has good intentions, despite the Ghost's bright light bothering Scrooge.
(Again, the answer varies on which version you're reading but this one's pretty generalized. Sorry if it's confusing or it's not the best)

Consider this quote from Carson McCullers:
“This city, New York--consider the people in it, the eight million of us. An English friend of mine, when asked why he lived in New York City, said that he liked it here because he could be so alone. While it was my friend's desire to be alone, the aloneness of many Americans who live in cities is an involuntary and fearful thing. It has been said that loneliness is the great American malady. What is the nature of this loneliness? It would seem essentially to be a quest for identity."
Discuss the nature of loneliness and how it is possible to feel lonely even when surrounded by people. (Give a paragraph with at least 5 sentences please)
Answer:
I cant give an exact answer but I can give an idea.
Explanation:
The question is pretty much asking how even with people around you, you can be lonely. Think about quarantine. You are with your family right now, yet you feel alone because you cant do the things you were looking foward to. It also wants you to talk about what loneliness is like. Is it sad? Do you feel happy being alone? What are things someone would do when they are lonely?

Read the excerpt from Ronald Reagan's "Tear Down This Wall" speech.
In Europe, only one nation and those it controls refuse to join the community of freedom. Yet in this age of redoubled economic growth, of information and innovation, the Soviet Union faces a choice: It must make fundamental changes, or it will become obsolete. Today thus represents a moment of hope. We in the West stand ready to cooperate with the East to promote true openness, to break down barriers that separate people, to create a safer, freer world.
Which rhetorical technique does this paragraph demonstrate?
ad hominem
false dilemma
hasty generalization
bandwagon appeal
Answer:
False dilemma
Explanation:
A false dilemma takes place when only two options are introduced even though there are more, or when there are many other options possible in the middle of two extremes. In a false dilemma, there are no more alternatives that going one way or the other, where in fact, a lot other alternatives are omitted. According to Ronald Reagan's words, Soviet Union has only two options, which include taking fundamental changes or becoming obsolete.

The rhetorical technique that this paragraph demonstrates is called "False dilemma" (Option A)
What is a False Dilemma?When there are many more possibilities than the two that are presented, or when there are numerous additional options that may be chosen in between the two extremes, a false dilemma is created.
False dilemmas suggest that there are only two options: one way or the other, but in reality, there are many more options that are not considered.
Ronald Reagan once stated that the Soviet Union had just two choices: either make significant changes or fade away. This indicates, therefore, that the correct answer is option A.

what is the theme of the poem the self-unseeing
Answer:
Death and decay is one of the themes
Answer:
“The Self-Unseeing” shows how the poet remembers his childhood with his parents in the house and how it has become just a damaged memory, by giving the poem a low pitch tone with strong descriptions and a rhyme scheme that exalts emotion and importance.
A recently deceased teenager discovers that there is life after death and you can do a lot more when dead than when alive.

Answer:
a) What point of view?
The point of view would be the first person, because the story should be very personal.
b) Plot/Setting/Characters
The plot would be about how the teenager tries to adapt to his new life in the afterlife, the setting would be several places in the afterlife, and the characters would be some famous deceased people he would meet: for example, writer Ernest Hemingway, and painter Pablo Picasso.
c) Tenses:
the predominant tense would be the present tense, because the story would be told in first person, about things that are currently happening in the story.
d)Tone/Mood:
The tone would be of constant surprise, and doubt, because the protagonist is living a world (the afterlife) that he does not know.
e)Timeline:
This would correspond to the current timeline, because the protagonist would be a recently deceasd teenager.

Explanation:
Binge-watching is a tv-drug, and it has all the negative side-effects of drugs.
Drugs don´t create a sense of community and don´t strengthen people´s relationships. Drugs in general don´t have positive or negative effects. And not getting enough hours of sleep is certainly not positive. That physical health problems arise is definitely true, but not out of long hours of sitting.

Explanation:
I'm also doing the quiz my first attempt got the answer correct
The sentence that uses the connotative meaning of the word crooked is: “The crooked businessman had more money than friends.” Hence, Option B is correct.
What is the meaning of connotative?The usage of a term to imply a different association from its denotative, or literal, meaning is known as connotation. Positive, negative, or neutral connotative are all possible.
The suggestion of a meaning by a term other than that which it expressly labels, describes, or signifies is known as a connotative meaning. Two main approaches to explaining word meanings are connotation and denotation.
While denotation is a word's exact, literal definition that may be discovered in a text, connotation refers to the wide range of associations—both good and negative—that most words naturally bring with them.
Therefore, Option B is correct.

Explanation:
The parenthetical punctuation are: Dashes is the first one, commas is the second and parentheses is the third one.
What do you mean by punctuation?Punctuation is the use of white space, traditional signals, and specific typographical elements to help readers understand and interpret written material correctly, whether they are reading it silently or loudly.
"It is the practice, action, or system of adding points or other small marks into texts to facilitate understanding; segmentation of text into phrases, clauses, etc., by means of such marks," is another definition.
Punctuation in written English is essential for clarifying sentence meaning. For instance, the phrases "woman without her man is nothing" and "woman without her man is nothing," as well as "eats shoots and leaves" and "eats, shoots and leaves," have completely different meanings.
The earliest writing systems were either syllabic or logographic, such as Chinese and Mayan script, which do not always require punctuation, especially spacing.
This is because space does not always clearly show where one word ends and another begins because the full morpheme or word is often contained within a single symbol.
