Hi. You have not submitted any questions related to the statement presented in the question above. This makes it impossible for me to give you an answer. However, I will try to help you by giving you some context about traditional African marriage, and I hope that this will serve as a basis to help you find answers to your questions.
The concept of "traditional marriage" can indeed present sexist and very negative ideas for women. In some African cultures, it was common for traditional marriages to be performed with very young and immature brides, true children who were able to marry, but who were forced into arranged marriages, which proved to be an oppressive and limiting system for women . In this situation, traditional marriage was, in fact, completely disadvantageous for women. However, over time this type of custom was abandoned in many African societies. Although this type of practice still takes place in some countries, African societies have greater access to information and allow women to have more equal and fairer living conditions. In this type of society, traditional marriage is followed more as an aesthetic and cultural standard, but the advantages and freedoms between men and women are usually more balanced and harmonious.
Read the paragraph.
Enkidu, who had met the beast, warned Gilgamesh of the dangers involved, explaining that Gilgamesh did not "know the horror that lurks ahead." Upon seeing the beast Humbaba, Gilgamesh himself became seized with dread and terror. However, despite Enkidu’s warning and his own temporary paralysis upon seeing Humbaba, Gilgamesh charged at Humbaba with his axe. He demonstrated that he was able to summon the bravery necessary to overcome his fear and attack the frightening beast.
Which sentence should be added at the beginning of this paragraph to introduce the writer’s point?
A. Even though he had seen Humbaba before, Enkidu was just as horified by the monster's appearance as Gilgamesh was.
B. Gilgamesh demonstrated his abilities as an effective and compelling leader and speaker on several occasions.
C. Two men embarked on a long and dangerous journey to the Cedar Forest in hopes of defeating the beast Humbaba.
D. Gilgamesh proved his bravery when he engaged in battle with a strong and fierce antagonist *
Answer:
i feel like the answer is B
Explanation:
because gilgamesh probably thought just because he is leader and he has power he knows everything so enkidu (the next sentence) warns him. which fits perfectly.
The rocket girls will now get the recognition they deserve and inspire a new generation of female engineers.” Explain the given sentence in context with the poem ‘As I grew older
Answer:
Like Langston Hughes' poem declaring dreams achieved, the story of the rocket girls inspired a lot of younger generations, irrespective of gender or race, to dream big and work for it.
Explanation:
The poem "As I grew older" is a poem by Langston Hughes. The poem revolves around a dream, a desire to achieve a lost dream.
The statement "the rocket girls will now get the recognition they deserve and inspire a new generation of female engineers" is in reference to the black women who worked at NASA and participated in the agency's space missions. And as Hughes talks about a dream with a wall so high being achieved, the story of these NASA women shared a similar theme of the achievement of that unforgotten dream.
And so, like the poem's declaration,
My hands!
My dark hands!
Break through the wall!
Find my dream!
Help me to shatter this darkness,
To smash this night,
To break this shadow
Into a thousand lights of sun,
Into a thousand whirling dreams
Of sun!
the rocket girls show how dreams are achievable, no limits. They will now be recognized and appreciated for their contribution to the most important event in the history of space missions for America. And it was the inspiring story of these women of color that would lead future generations with dreams even that are thought unachievable.

HELP OK I NEES A ESSAY ON SUGAR CANE SPIDERS ITS DUE FRIDAY AND I HAVE A MAJOR PHOBIA OF THEM HELP
Answer:
Spiders are practically everywhere. They live on nearly every continent and are part of every common ecosystem imaginable. Spiders may look small and insignificant -- OK, and kinda creepy -- but they're important predators and prey for a multitude of other animals. As any horticulturalist can tell you, they're great garden allies, too.
Spiders are endemic to every continent except Antarctica. Some species are terrestrial, that is they live on the ground, while others are arboreal, meaning they live in trees. Beyond this distinction, they've also displayed a penchant for living in far-flung climates and habitats, from tropical forests to ice-cold caves. Some specialist species live in a combination of extreme conditions. Case in point, the Kauai cave spider, who lives in lava-tube habitats in Hawaii. While some spiders are social, most are solitary and interact with each other only to fight or mate.
The cane spider is known by different names in different regions, including brown huntsman, large brown spider, banana spider and giant crab spider. They're found in subtropical climates, and may have came to the U.S. as stowaways in banana shipments from Central America. They don't weave webs, instead stalking their prey, capturing and holding it with their large, powerful fangs.
Cane spiders are large, flat-bodied arachnids with two rows of eyes and long, hairy legs. Their bodies are about an inch long, with a leg span that reaches up to 5 inches wide. Cane spiders are brown, with a cream-colored band encircling the top of their backs, and black bands or spots on their legs. Male cane spiders have pale patches behind their eyes and longer legs than females, while females have larger abdomens.
Cane spiders are found in Hawaii, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, California, Southeast Asia, Australia and the Caribbean. They frequent sugar cane fields, avocado and banana groves and forests, hiding in tree holes and under bark. Cane spiders can't tolerate cold temperatures. Their flat bodies fit in tiny cracks, enabling them to find their way into homes, heated garages, outbuildings and greenhouses to keep warm.
Cane spiders breed year-round. After mating, the female spins a white egg sac surrounding approximately 200 eggs. She carries her egg sac under her body, causing her to be mostly immobile. In about three weeks, the mother tears open the egg sac and pale baby spiders emerge. The mother spider stays with the babies for several weeks after they hatch. The babies will molt several times during this period. Cane spiders live for more than 2 years.
Cane spiders are nocturnal, entering homes and hiding behind wall hangings and under furniture, coming out at night to hunt. They are found in cars, often behind sun visors, frightening humans with their large size. Cane spiders are reluctant biters, biting only if provoked. Their bites are small but painful. They do not produce enough venom to be dangerous to humans, but a headache may result. Some cultures welcome the cockroach-eating cane spiders into their homes.

Read the passage.
Looking back, I suppose my life started with that letter. I don’t think everything necessarily happens for a reason—there’s too much tragedy in the world for that. But there’s no doubt that some misfortunes turn into pivotal moments that can alter the course of a person’s life for the better. Alma and I have been together for 30 years now, and I still wonder what that other life—the one in which my letter said “congratulations”—might look like. I expect it would have been pretty grand, full of its own triumphs and pitfalls. My children are fresh to the adult world, and when I see their tears as plans go sideways, I like to imagine that someday they’ll sit where I am with people to love, hobbies to pursue, and maybe even a spare dollar in the bank.
Which statement best describes the narrator’s viewpoint regarding obstacles his children face?
A. He ignores their struggles with obstacles because he believes everything happens for a reason.
B. He works to help his children avoid obstacles so that they will never have to wonder how their lives could have gone.
C. He fears the obstacles and worries that life will not turn out as well for his children as it did for him.
D. He regards the obstacles calmly, with the perspective of someone who has faced obstacles and lived through them.

Answer:
D
Explanation:
I believe the answer is D, as he does not ignore or help them with their obstacles. He simply regards them as uses his own past as reassurance for himself that things will work out for them.

Traditions like the Panhellenic Games helped the ancient Greeks to become one people. Greek architecture was created to accommodate public gathering places and religious events.
The strongest and bravest warrior in the Greek conflict against the Trojans was Achilles. His mother submerged him in the River Styx when he was a baby, rendering him defenseless save for the heel with which she clutched him. Achilles served as the Trojan War's greatest hero for ten years.
Thus, A is the best choice. Through evidence of Hektor's outstanding bravery, the extract illuminates traditional Greek beliefs.

Need answers now ASAP
Answer:
1. What did the man think when the boy did not return at once?
The man thought that the boy ran away with the money.
2. What took the boy too long to return?
The boy lost the money, so he had to clean the utensils of the tea vendor to have the cup of tea.
3. What do you think the man felt after knowing it? Why?
I think that he felt bad about himself because he judged the boy by his appearance.
4. Does his experience reflect bias or prejudice? Why?
His experience reflects prejudice because he judged the boy by his attire. He had the prejudice that poor or pathetically dressed boys are thefts.
5. How can we avoid this kind of situation?
We can avoid this kind of situation by learning through different experiences and texts, like this story. Also, we should reflect on our actions and thoughts to identify prejudices and work on them.
Explanation:
1.We can see that the man thought that the boy ran away with the money in the fourth paragraph when he says, "Now I was sure that the child ran away the money..."
2. The answer to question number two is in the last paragraph when the boy explains what happened "He told me, he lost the 5 rupees coin and so he had to clean the utensils of the tea vendor, to bring me a cup of tea."
3. It is not in the story, but we can infer that he felt bad since he judged someone wrong and unfairly since the boy was not a thief. He only was pathetically dressed.
4. We can see that his experience reflects prejudice since he has a concept in his mind about people dressed in dirty and torn clothes. He relates the appearance of someone with traits, so there's prejudice because he is judging the boy without knowing him.
5. There are many ways to avoid these situations. One of them is by educating ourselves and reflecting on our thought and actions. We can do this in different ways. For example, by reading, talking with others about their experiences and point of view, or thinking about our actions.

Which of the following statements best describes the relationship between striking laborers and government leaders during the Great Upheaval?
A. Governing leaders were fully supportive of the striking laborers.
B. Governing leaders tended to support the bosses against the striking laborers.
C. Governing leaders tended to stay out of any disputes since they didn’t employ the striking laborers.
D. Governing leaders were fully supportive of the strikes but could not condone the violent actions of the striking laborers.
Answer:
B. Governing leaders tended to support the bosses against the striking laborers.
Explanation:
The Great Upheaval, a term used to describe the Steel strike of 1919, was an action taken by the American laborers in the steel, iron, and tin industries to protest against the inability of the government to fulfill its promise of raising wages, reducing the prices of commodities, and ensuring better working conditions. This protest which lasted from September 22, 1919, to January 8, 1920, was met with great opposition from both the bosses and managers of the industries as well as government officials.
The United States Steel Chairman, Elbert Gary declined meetings for negotiations with the National Committee. President Woodrow Wilson was unable to convince the workers not to strike. The bosses of the industries resorted to rumor-mongering, employment of unskilled workers, and other ill measures to sabotage the strike.
So, both the governing leaders and bosses were against the laborers.

What do good speakers do to help their listeners understand an unfamiliar topic?
Answer:
Engage the audience — get them interested, give them a reason to listen. How?
Describe a scene or a character.
Tell a story.
Share a personal experience.
Relate to a recent event.
Piggyback on a previous speaker’s remark or theme.
Point out something important about the audience or the current setting.
Show a compelling visual image.
Ask a provocative question.
State a fact that is troubling, amusing, or remarkable.
Spell out what's at stake for your listeners.
Offer a humorous observation or anecdote.
Explain your own interest in the topic.
Tell listeners what the topic has to do with them.
Focus the presentation—tell listeners what it’s about. State the presentation’s goal or your thesis or research question. Tell listeners what they’ll learn.
Preview what’s to follow—your points, your approach, or the type of content.
To begin with, consider the age of your audience. A five-year-old, for example, will need simpler words for them to understand, rather than an adult. You can't use complex words to your audience(or readers), even if they're older since you are discussing an unfamiliar topic. Think about what level of detail your listeners will need. Before speaking, think about your tone because it will affect the listeners.
Next, introduce the subject clearly, explaining what will be taught by the subject. And you might also engage the listeners with an introduction that will get them interested in the topic.
Then, incorporate information or details if your audience is unfamiliar with whatever subject you are discussing. Remember to leave out anything that is obvious. And always be prepared to answer questions as you go and provide more details if they appear to be confused. In addition to that, you can bring or create a visual aid to help both them and you to visualize and further explain what you are doing or discussing.
I'm hoping that this helps you<3 goodluck!

My dear Rosy,
First of all, Happy New Year. I hope you are doing well and fine. I am also doing fine and managing alright.
I would like to let you know about the new resolutions that I have promised myself. And there are several, which I decided would be helpful for me to change.
First, I have decided that I would spend less time on social media and more time reading books. My screen time has resulted in health issues in me and I am determined to change that. Also, I would also register myself in some online courses, like seminars and conferences regarding poetry, literature, and writing courses.
Lastly, I have also decided to join yoga classes, volunteer at some NGOs, and help teach the village children too. This will help me use my time productively.
I realized I spend too much time doing nothing useful and so, have decided that I would now spend time doing things that help or benefit at least one person.
That's all for now. Hoping to hear back from you.
Take care and will talk to you soon.
Love,
Mandy
