He undressed and threw his nets, and as he was drawing them towards the bank he felt a great weight. He thought he had caught a large fish, and he felt very pleased. But a moment afterwards, seeing that instead of a fish he only had in his nets the carcase of an butt, he was much disappointed. Vexed with having such a bad haul, when he had mended his nets, which the carcase of the butt had broken in several places, he threw them a second time. In drawing them in he again felt a great weight, so that he thought they were full of fish. But he only found a large basket full of rubbish. He was much annoyed. "O Fortune," he cried, "do not trifle thus with me, a poor fisherman, who can hardly support his family!" So saying, he threw away the rubbish, and after having washed his nets clean of the dirt, he threw them for the third time. But he only drew in stones, shells, and mud. He was almost in despair. The main character's motivation is to keep his nets clean of dirt. support his wife and three children. be up and working by moonlight. catch stones, shells, and mud.

In the context of the text, what are the effects of prejudice? How has America's marginalization of minorities contributed to the need for code-switching? Cite evidence from this text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answer

Answers

Answer:

1. In the context of the text, prejudice leads to feelings of inferiority, inability to communicate effectively, and difficulty adjusting to new environments.

2. America's marginalization of minorities has brought about the development of different values in children raised in different communities/cultures. Different styles of communication learned by children classified as minorities, may be regarded as foreign or derogatory by the White people.

The rejection Eric Deggans faced from White parents who did not want their children associating with him because of his background is an example of how America's marginalization of minorities has caused a need for code-switching. Eric became more conscious of his environment and began adapting his language and speech accordingly.

Explanation:

Code-switching is the act of switching between languages in communication. In the American setting, this act is even much needed especially among the minorities because their style of communication differs from the predominantly white community.

While those who do not use this skill may view it as putting up an act, skilled users know that it is an important means of communication.

Answer 1 :

The effects of prejudice in context of the text  leads to an inferiority complex, lack of effective communication, and difficulty adapting to new environments.  

Answer 2:

America's marginalization of minorities contributed to the need for code-switching  has led to the development of different values ​​among children raised in different communities / cultures. The different styles of communication learned by minority children can be considered alien or derogatory by whites.

Answers

Answer:

36 girls

Explanation:

Given

[tex]Students = 48[/tex]

Girls = 6 upon 8

Required

Determine the number of girls

6 upon 8 means: [tex]\frac{6}{8}[/tex]

So, the number of girls is:

[tex]Girls = \frac{6}{8} * Students[/tex]

[tex]Girls = \frac{6}{8} * 48[/tex]

[tex]Girls = \frac{6* 48}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Girls = \frac{288}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Girls = 36[/tex]

Among the wonderful deeds of Hannibal this one is enumerated: that having led an enormous army, composed of many various races of men, to fight in foreign lands, no dissensions arose either among them or against the prince, whether in his bad or in his good fortune. This arose from nothing else than his inhuman cruelty, which, with his boundless valour, made him revered and terrible in the sight of his soldiers, but without that cruelty, his other virtues were not sufficient to produce this effect. And short-sighted writers admire his deeds from one point of view and from another condemn the principal cause of them.

English 10H 2nd semester Beginning Synthesis assignment

In the weeks and months following the events of September 11, 2001, there were understandably widespread feelings of anger and rage, along with the feeling of needing payback. They were understandable because that seems to be what human beings do—we lash out at those we perceive to be our enemies, out of fear, confusion, and hatred. At the same time, there was a tangible sense on the part of many Americans that it was a time to pause and reflect on how we got to this point, and what changes could we make as a society to try and see that something like this never happened again. There was a brief feeling that maybe a window was opening for us to reexamine our role and place in the world. Sadly, those feelings didn’t last long, and that window was slammed shut by the forces of normalization, the voices telling us to “get back to business.” In fact, the president at the time encouraged people to “go shopping,” and to “get down to DisneyWorld.”

This is the background for this assignment—the last time something so widespread and dramatic affected all Americans was probably 9/11, and that’s the context for what this asks you to do.

Prompt: Having lived through the last 10+ months of the pandemic, and the disruptions to our ordinary daily lives, and now, with vaccines becoming more widely available, and the plan to return to school, what do you think is possible in the post-pandemic world? On the day before schools shut down, March 16, 2020, Elizabeth Carter asked this question: “What do you think normal will look like on the other side of this?” Your job is to come up with an answer to that question, using your own experience and the 2 articles you read last week (“Coronavirus in 2021 and Beyond: When Will Life Return to Normal?” and “When will 2021 feel normal again? Here’s what eight experts predict”). This is the first exercise in synthesizing information; incorporate ideas from both articles along with your own thinking.

Feel free to include any thoughts you have about what you’ve seen, what you’ve felt, what you’ve experienced, balanced with a few thoughts you read and incorporate. Think about the conversations we’ve had this year about culture, about justice, about the intersection of the pandemic with the protests for racial justice, and about thinking critically about our lives and how to make them better.

A fair six-sided die is rolled 700 times, approximately how many times can we reasonably expect to roll a 1 or a 2? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number

Answers

Answer:

233.

Explanation:

Given that a fair six-sided die is rolled 700 times, to determine approximately how many times can we reasonably expect to roll a 1 or a 2 rounded to whole numbers, we must perform the following calculation:

2/6 = 0.3333

700 x 0.3333 = X

233.333 = X

So, rounded to whole numbers, we can expect a 1 or 2 to come up 233 times.
