Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

(a) An amusing satire on the excesses of modern prophets

(b) A poetic expression of the need for love to give meaning to life

(c) A lyrical celebration of the importance of nature for human beings

(d) A personal meditation on human courage in the face of destruction

(e) A philosophical poem about human beings and nature

Answer:

(d) A personal meditation on human courage in the face of destruction

Explanation:

The poem reinforces the idea that human beings would promote their own destruction with an excuse that they were trying to protect each other, when in fact they were not. The poet wrote this poem to reinforce the fear of nuclear weapons that proved to be gigantic threats and that allowed human beings to play with their own destruction.

According to paragraph 45 how are phone sensor attacks developing over time?

C. They are becoming more advanced in how they collect and use data. (Smartphones Put Your Privacy at Risk)

Explanation:

You could see in paragraph 45 how Al-Haiqi discusses that current sensor protections that are used in your phone can negatively affect your experience and people/companies are becoming advanced in their phone scams to release private information about you. Al-Haiqi clearly means that more clever attacks on your phone will emerge and that means security teams with engineers just to need to solve that with creative and more clever solutions.

Answers

Answer:

1. JUDITH ORTIZ COFER (b. 1952)

Volar1

Born in Hormigueros, Puerto Rico, Judith Ortiz Cofer just two years later moved with her family, first to New Jersey and later to Georgia, experiences that would inspire much of her later fiction and poetry. "How can you inject passion and purpose into your work if it has no roots?" she asks, avowing that her own roots include a long line of women storytellers who "infected" her at a very early age with the desire to tell stories both on and off the page. After earning an MA at Florida Atlantic University (1977), Ortiz Cofer returned to Georgia, where she is an emeritus professor at the University of Georgia. Among her numerous publications are the novels The Line of the Sun (1989), in which a young girl relates the history of her ne'er-do-well uncle's emigration from Puerto Rico, The Meaning of Consuelo (2003), and Call Me Maria (2006); the poetry collection A Love Story Beginning in Spanish (2005); and The Latin Deli (1993) and The Year of Our Revolution (1998), two collec- tions that seamlessly interweave fiction, nonfiction, and poetry, thereby demonstrating, in Ortiz Cofer's words, "the need to put things together in a holistic way."

At twelve I was an avid consumer of comic books—Supergirl being my favor- ite. I spent my allowance of a quarter a day on two twelve-cent comic books or a double issue for twenty-five. I had a stack of Legion of Super Heroes and Supergirl comic books in my bedroom closet that was as tall as I am. I had a recurring dream in those days: that I had long blond hair and could fly. In my dream I climbed the stairs to the top of our apartment building as myself, but as I went up each flight, changes would be taking place. Step by step I would fill out: My legs would grow long, my arms harden into steel, and my hair would magically go straight and turn a golden color. Of course I would add the bonus of breasts, but not too large; Supergirl had to be aerodynamic. Sleek and hard as a supersonic missile. Once on the roof, my parents safely asleep in their beds, I would get on tiptoe, arms outstretched in the position for flight, and jump out my fifty-story-high window into the black lake of the sky. From up there, over the rooftops, I could see everything, even beyond the few blocks of our barrio;2 with my X-ray vision I could look inside the homes of people who interested me. Once I saw our landlord, whom I knew my parents feared, sitting in a treasure- room dressed in an ermine coat and a large gold crown. He sat on the floor counting his dollar bills. I played a trick on him. Going up to his building's chimney, I blew a little puff of my superbreath into his fireplace, scattering his stacks of money so that he had to start counting all over again. I could more or less program my Supergirl dreams in those days by focusing on the object of my current obsession. This way I "saw" into the private lives of my neighbors, my teachers, and in the last days of my childish fantasy and the beginning of ado- lescence, into the secret room of the boys I liked. In the mornings I'd wake up in my tiny bedroom with the incongruous—at least in our tiny apartment— white "princess" furniture my mother had chosen for me, and find myself back in my body: my tight curls still clinging to my head, skinny arms and legs and flat chest unchanged.

In the kitchen my mother and father would be talking softly over a café con

leche. She would come "wakeme" exactly forty-five minutes after they had got- ten up. It was their time together at the beginning of each day and even at an early age I could feel their disappointment if I interrupted them by getting up too early. So I would stay in my bed recalling my dreams of flight, perhaps plan- ning my next flight. In the kitchen they would be discussing events in the bar- rio. Actually, he would be carrying that part of the conversation; when it was her turn to speak she would, more often than not, try shifting the topic toward her desire to see her

familia on the Island: How about a vacation in Puerto Rico together this year, Querido?4 We could rent a car, go to the beach. We could . . . 5 And he would answer patiently, gently, Mi amor, do you know how much it would cost for all of us to fly there? It is not possible for me to take the time off . . .Mi vida, please understand. . . . And I knew that soon she would rise from the table. Not abruptly. She would light a cigarette and look out the kitchen win- dow. The view was of a dismal alley that was littered with refuse thrown from windows. The space was too narrow for anyone larger than a skinny child to enter safely, so it was never cleaned. My mother would check the time on the clock over her sink, the one with a prayer for patience and grace written in Spanish. A birthday gift. She would see that it was time to wake me. She'd sigh deeply and say the same thing the view from her kitchen window always inspired her to say: Ay, si yo pudiera volar.

how are Nancy Bobofit and Clarisse different from each other

Answers

Answer:

Clarisse is a demigod, daughter of ares, who prefers to bully via violence over insults. Where as Nancy Bobofit is a mortal, who prefers to bully via insults. Both are rude to Percy with somewhat petty reasons for doing so. Clarisse's being that Percy gained some respect from killing the minotaur, and drenching her in toilet water; and Nancy Bobofit's being that she is a Kleptomaniac. (in the musical her reason is because Percy told her to stop wedgie-ing the first graders)

I hope that made sense, sorry if it didn't

Nancy Bobo fit and Clarisse different from each other Clarisse La Rue reminded Percy of Nancy, but Clarisse was much larger and stronger looking.

What are the similarity about Clarisse and Nancy Bobo fit?

Yes, because she is big and mean, just like Nancy. According to Percy, the big girl from the Ares cabin is similar to Nancy Bobo fit.

Nancy Bobo fit is a kleptomaniac mortal girl who attended Percy Jackson's sixth grade school, Yancy Academy. Nancy was the first person to fall victim to Percy Jackson's demigod abilities.

Clarisse, like the majority of her siblings, is generally hot-tempered, arrogant, brave, and strong. She is also reputed to be a bully who sticks the heads of new campers in the toilets.

Therefore, Nancy Bobo and Clarisse are unlike each other. Clarisse La Rue resembled Nancy in appearance, but Clarisse was much larger and stronger.
