What is the Central idea?

The central idea of any literature piece defines the main idea and highlights what will go to take place in the story. It helps the audience to understand the plot by connecting with the events.

To persuade the reader that science and technology should be reduced or stopped due to its costs and risks, it is written "Humans Should Stay Home and Let Robots Take to the Stars."

One claim made is that "Humans explore, robots don't," and conversely. According to the author, people respond in an instant situation due to having brains, whereas machines need instructions. This leads to the steady but slow status of the project.

Therefore, option C is appropriate.

Read the excerpt from Le Morte d’Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory.

Then Sir Bedivere departed, and went to the sword, and lightly took it up, and went to the water side; and there he bound the girdle about the hilts, and then he threw the sword as far into the water as he might . . .

Read the excerpt from "Morte d'Arthur” by Alfred, Lord Tennyson.

Then quickly rose Sir Bedivere, and ran,

And, leaping down the ridges lightly, plunged

Among the bulrush-beds, and clutch’d the sword,

And strongly wheel’d and threw it.

Tennyson’s version portrays Sir Bedivere with more

excitement than Sir Thomas Malory’s version does.
happiness than Sir Thomas Malory’s version does.
action than Sir Thomas Malory’s version does.
sorrow than Sir Thomas Malory’s version does.

Answers

Answer: There seems to be more action than in Sir Thomas Malory's version.

Explanation:

There seems to be more action than in Sir Thomas Malory's version. Tennyson is known as one of the greatest British Poets. In Malory's version, there are few adjectives to describe the situation. Instead of simply departed, Tennyson used "quickly rose". Instead of "went to the sword and took it up", Tennyson uses "LEAPING down the ridges ... lightly PLUNGED among the bulrush-beds". And it continues. There is more action because of the increased used of adjectives to describe the movements of the character.

Why are there three lines in each stanza? What could be the purpose of the poet in writing three lines per stanza? (Islands and Icebergs)​

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

"Islands and Icebergs" by Ralph Semino Galan is a poem about reading a poem. The speaker asks readers to imagine the paper as being the ocean and the words to be floating on the that ocean. That is a clue as to why he writes three lines per stanza. The length of the lines, along with their number, reminds us of the waves, even the foam, to floats up and down, back and forth, on the ocean. The author wrote three lines per stanza as a way to make the poem itself resemble an ocean, instead of simply asking as to imagine it.

One of the most famous prehistoric monuments in Europe is the mysterious site known as Stonehenge. It is located in southwestern England on Salisbury Plain, and its earliest structures dates back approximately 4,500 years to the Neolithic Age. A variety of researchers over the years has determined the evolutionary sequence of the various structures from geological and archaeological evidence. In addition, more recent research in the areas surrounding Stonehenge have revealed evidence of a Neolithic village and several gravesites, which have yielded useful information. In 2002, the tomb and remains of a man dubbed the Amesbury Archer was unearthed. Chemical analyses of his teeth have demonstrated that he grew up somewhere in the Alps and migrated to southwestern Britain. The Archer was buried with artifacts, including gold hair ornaments and various tools that indicates he was wealthy. The idea of his migrating so far has intrigued those who are exploring in areas around Stonehenge.
Which option below would be an acceptable revision of the underlined selection?
a. have determined
b. determine
c. is determining
d. No revision is necessary

Answers

Answer:

a. have determined.

Explanation:

The use of the verb "has" or "have" depends on the person and the number. Has is used for third-person singular whereas "have" is used for first-person and plural nouns or pronouns. And the main point to be used in this case is that "has" is for singular nouns whereas "have" is to be used for plural nouns.

Looking at the given sentence, "A variety of researchers over the years has determined the evolutionary sequence . . ." the noun "researchers" is plural. This determines the form of the verb to be used alongside it.

Thus, the acceptable revision of the verb will be "have determined".
