"I am sure," said the king, "that this man is the most faithful and virtuous of men. If he wished to take my life, why did he cure me? Cease to speak against him. I see what it is, you are jealous of him; but do not think that I can be turned against him. I remember well what a vizir said to King Sindbad, his master, to prevent him from putting the prince, his son, to death."
What the Greek king said excited the vizir's curiosity, and he said to him, "Sire, I beg your majesty to have the condescension to tell me what the vizir said to King Sindbad."
"This vizir," he replied, "told King Sindbad that one ought not believe everything that a mother-in-law says, and told him this story."

What is unique about this story?
Which plot element is missing from the story?

Answers

Answer 1

The unique element of this story is the way in which the king defends the physician Douban from the accusations of the Vizir. The king is convinced of Douban's innocence and virtue, and believes that the Vizir is only making these accusations out of jealousy. The king also references a story that a vizir once told King Sindbad, which emphasizes the importance of not believing everything that one hears, particularly when it comes to accusations made by mother-in-laws.

A plot element that seems to be missing from the story is the story that the king mentions which a vizir told King Sindbad, this story is not present in the extract provided, it's not clear what the story is about, what is the main idea behind it, and how it relates to the current situation. This missing piece of information makes it difficult to fully understand the context of the king's statement and the moral of the story.

Answer 2

The unique aspect of this story is that it includes a story within the story, with the Greek king telling the vizir a story that was told to him by a vizir in the past.

What is The Story of the Greek King and the Physician Douban?

The unique aspect of this story is that it includes a story within the story, with the Greek king telling the vizir a story that was told to him by a vizir in the past. This creates a layered narrative structure.

The story is missing a clear resolution or climax. The plot revolves around the Greek king's belief in the physician's innocence, but there is no clear moment where this is definitively proven or disproven. The story ends with the king telling the vizir a story, rather than resolving the conflict.

How can Filipinos change their colonial mentality​

Answers

Answer:

by tedaing this

Explanation:

An intro to Colonial Mentality and its effects on the Filipino-/American community, in recognition and celebration of Filipino American History Month. We acknowledge that there are many terms to describe the community: Filipinx/a/o, and have chosen to use “Filipino” in this resource.

On her flight back home from visiting my auntie in Canada, my mom looked up from her plane ticket to find that she was sitting next to a man who she had an inkling was also Filipino. She was eager to talk to him. After a bit of small talk, my mom was able to casually sneak in the question: “Pilipino ka ba?” (Are you Filipino?). To her delight, she found out that he was actually from Ilocos, her and my dad’s home province in the Philippines. Naturally, she started speaking to him in Ilokano. What was odd was that even though he clearly understood what she was saying, he continued responding back to her in English. Thinking he would be more comfortable speaking in Filipino (the national language of the Philippines), she changed dialects. He continued to respond in English. Confused, my mom asked him how long he had been in the States. She wondered, “Maybe he’s been away for so long that he’d just forgotten how to speak the language?” To her surprise, he responded “6 years.” My mom, who had moved to the States when she was 16, had been living in the US for nearly 35 years. She admitted that she had lost some of the vocabularies, but that there was no way the man on the plane could have forgotten how to speak both languages. As she was retelling this story to me, I could see the recounted look of annoyance and disappointment on her face. She asked, “Did he think he was better than me because he was speaking in English?” 

I think of this story often whenever I think of colonial mentality and its effects on the Filipino-/American community. First colonized by Spain for nearly 300 years from the 1560s to the 1890s, then Japan during World War II from 1941-1945, and then the US from 1898-1946, (in addition to the fact that the Philippines is an archipelago with each island and peoples having its own culture and identity), it is without saying that the Philippines’ culture and identity is difficult to grasp and define. (Let alone our history, which for the most part wasn’t recorded during the periods of colonization.) The uncertainties of what do and do not define our culture after having been colonized for so long have created colonial mentality, which has generated feelings of otherness and shame toward our identity and ultimately ourselves.

Answers

Answer:

playful

Explanation:

I think that is right but i am not sure.

It's not lonely or clam because it is flooded with children which means there is a lot of them, and it is probably loud.

And i also don't think it is angry because there is no sign that is saying that they are mad.

The correct response is - Playful. It's not quiet or solitary because there are so many kids there, which means it's probably noisy. Additionally, there is no indication that they are furious, therefore I don't believe they are angry either.

What is a Snow?

Individual ice crystals that makeup snow develop while hanging in the atmosphere, typically within clouds, before falling and settling on the ground, where they further transform.

Tiny ice crystals in clouds bond with one another to make snowflakes. Crystals will eventually get so densely packed that they are weighty enough to tumble to the earth. Snowflakes will melt at their edges and join together to form large flakes when they fall through damp air that is slightly warmer than 0 °C.

Precipitation in the form of ice crystals is called snow. When the outside temperature is below 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius), water vapor in the sky condenses directly into ice in the clouds, skipping the liquid phase.

Answers

Answer:

Shere Khan- The law does not permit him to eat Mowgli.  

Akela- The law says he is too old and weak to  lead, so he must be killed.  

Bagheera- The law allows him to save Mowgli by  giving the wolf pack a bull.  

Mowgli-  The law prevents his enemies from  doing him harm.

Explanation:

Rudyard Kipling's children's book "The Jungle Book" revolves around the story of a young boy named Mowgli who was raised up by wolves in a forest, away from humans. The story follows Mowgli growing up amidst the fight for power among the animals in the forest.

The characters and the way they are affected by the law of the Jungle are as follows-

Shere Khan is a Bengal tiger who wanted to kill Mowgli and also take over the authority of being the leader of the animals in the forest. But the law prevents him from attacking or killing any human in the belief that if a man is 'touched', then that will only bring more men into the forest and pose a danger for all animals.

Akela is a wolf, the leader of the wolf pack. But his old age prevents him from continuing his position as a leader and would be replaced as he is old and weak.

Bagheera is a black panther who took care of and protect Mowgli. He saved the little boy by giving the wolf pack a bull in exchange for the boy's life.

Mowgli is a human who got left behind in the forest while he was a baby. The law of the jungle allows him to be safe for his 'man-features and identity' gives him protection from being attacked or killed.

In line 411, "Sailors brought stories of the plight you suffer," there is an

example of:

A) alliteration

B) kenning

C) caesura

D) litotes

Answers

Answer: The answer is write infront of you face ! A

The line "Sailors brought stories of the plight you suffer," is an alliteration.

The given line of poetry is taken from the epic narrative "Beowulf". The epic revolves around the heroic character Beowulf and his achievements in defeating Grendel.

Alliteration is the repetition of the first letter of a word in close succession. This means that when a particular word or alphabet is the same for some or most of the words in a line of poetry or sentence, then that is an alliteration. The line "sailors brought stories of the plight you suffer" uses alliteration in the words "sailors/ stories/ suffer". Here, the alliteration is in the use of the letter "s" in the three words of the single line of poetry.

Alliteration is a literary device that contains the repetition of the initial sound/letters in the words of a sentence or line of poetry. As such, the given line from "Beowulf" is an example of an alliteration. Thus, the correct answer is option A.

So this is an excerpt from The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. In the text, the scene of Jordan Baker and Nick Carraway driving in her car and their conversation deeply reveals the theme of this novel- which is  the careless of the Elite. When it comes to carelessness, you can't get more reckless than Tom and Daisy Buchanan. The super-rich heirs of old families, Tom and Daisy were born into the lap of luxury, and their greatest purpose in life is to remain there, no matter the cost to others. The carelessness exemplified by Tom and Daisy Buchanan is a carelessness of the elite, the brutal and thoughtless power that the 'haves' of this world can exert, most particularly on the 'have-nots.' From Nick's perspective of "careless people", he shows abomination and disrelish. Though Nick has feelings for Jordan Baker, however, deep down, the "Elites'"ignorance towards society is the real reson that spiritually separates Nick with them.

In your opinion, is the Ancient Mariner's punishment for killing the Albatross fair? Whose fate is worse, the Ancient Mariner's or the sailors'? Why? 80 to 100 words

Answers

This question seems to be deficient. However, there´s enough information to find the right answer.

Answer:

In my opinion, the Ancient Mariner's punishment was fair, and his fate was worse than the sailors'.

Explanation:

In The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (1798), by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, assuming that the sailors' punishment was death, even though we are not certain about what final fate their souls had after that, their suffering could be thought of as less than the Ancient Mariner's, who is left alive but cursed with an awful fate.

Both the sailors and the Ancient Mariner are at fault for killing the bird that had saved them because the sailors praised him afterward. However, the main fault rests in the Ancient Mariner, who did the actual killing, and must carry the burden of being responsible for the death of his crewmembers.

As work and society grew more complex, however, more people understood that a better education meant they would earn more money. Working-class families realized their children would benefit from more schooling. The goal was to keep more children and teenagers in school. This kept kids from taking jobs early and becoming competition for unemployed adults. With the support of government programs, war veterans from a variety of social classes went to college in record numbers. Read the following conclusion.

When it comes to politics, Americans have become pretty pessimistic. People don’t trust the political parties. Voter turnout is mediocre. Cynicism and polarization are rampant. But this pessimism belies a truth: Individual Americans have more political power than they realize.  

From the Tea Party on the right to the Trump resistance on the left, citizen activism has helped change American politics in recent years. If politics is a conversation, every American has a voice. Here’s how you can use yours more effectively.Voting is the most fundamental form of civic engagement in a democracy. But the United States has among the lowest voter turnout of developed nations.  

One reason is that the simple act of voting often turns out to be not so simple. Most American elections are held on weekdays, forcing people to plan around work and family schedules — especially if their polling place has long lines. Making matters worse, elections for most elected offices don’t coincide with national elections, as the political scientist Sarah Anzia has noted. That can make it difficult to keep track of all the times you can vote.
