from “A Bachelor’s Complaint of the Behaviour of Married People”
by Charles Lamb
As a single man, I have spent a good deal of my time in noting down the infirmities of Married People, to console myself for those superior pleasures, which they tell me I have lost by remaining as I am.
I cannot say that the quarrels of men and their wives ever made any great impression upon me, or had much tendency to strengthen me in those anti-social resolutions, which I took up long ago upon more substantial considerations. What oftenest offends me at the houses of married persons where I visit, is an error of quite a different description;—it is that they are too loving.
Not too loving neither: that does not explain my meaning. Besides, why should that offend me? The very act of separating themselves from the rest of the world, to have the fuller enjoyment of each other’s society, implies that they prefer one another to all the world.
But what I complain of is, that they carry this preference so undisguisedly, they perk it up in the faces of us single people so shamelessly, you cannot be in their company a moment without being made to feel, by some indirect hint or open avowal, that you are not the object of this preference. Now there are some things which give no offence, while implied or taken for granted merely; but expressed, there is much offence in them. If a man were to accost the first homely-featured or plain-dressed young woman of his acquaintance, and tell her bluntly, that she was not handsome or rich enough for him, and he could not marry her, he would deserve to be kicked for his ill manners; yet no less is implied in the fact, that having access and opportunity of putting the question to her, he has never yet thought fit to do it. The young woman understands this as clearly as if it were put into words; but no reasonable young woman would think of making this the ground of a quarrel. Just as little right have a married couple to tell me by speeches, and looks that are scarce less plain than speeches, that I am not the happy man,—the lady’s choice. It is enough that I know I am not: I do not want this perpetual reminding.
The display of superior knowledge or riches may be made sufficiently mortifying; but these admit of a palliative. The knowledge which is brought out to insult me, may accidentally improve me; and in the rich man’s houses and pictures,—his parks and gardens, I have a temporary usufruct at least. But the display of married happiness has none of these palliatives: it is throughout pure, unrecompensed, unqualified insult.
Marriage by its best title is a monopoly, and not of the least invidious sort. It is the cunning of most possessors of any exclusive privilege to keep their advantage as much out of sight as possible, that their less favoured neighbours, seeing little of the benefit, may the less be disposed to question the right. But these married monopolists thrust the most obnoxious part of their patent into our
faces.
Nothing is to me more distasteful than that entire complacency and satisfaction which beam in the countenances of a new-married couple, in that of the lady particularly: it tells you, that her lot is disposed of in this world: that you can have no hopes of her. It is true, I have none; nor wishes either, perhaps: but this is one of those truths which ought, as I said before, to be taken for granted, not expressed. The excessive airs which those people give themselves, founded on the ignorance of us unmarried people, would be more offensive if they were less irrational. We will allow them to understand the mysteries belonging to their own craft better than we who have not had the happiness to be made free of the company: but their arrogance is not content within these limits. If a single person presume to offer his opinion in their presence, though upon the most indifferent subject, he is immediately silenced as an incompetent person. Nay, a young married lady of my acquaintance, who, the best of the jest was, had not changed her condition above a fortnight before, in a question on which I had the misfortune to differ from her, respecting the properest mode of breeding oysters for the London market, had the assurance to ask with a sneer, how such an old Bachelor as I could pretend to know any thing about such matters.

A.
intelligence gained as a result of marriage

Explanation:
Read the paragraph from “Rivers and Stories,” Part 1.
Though the names are still magic—Amazon, Congo, Mississippi, Niger, Plate, Volga, Tiber, Seine, Ganges, Mekong, Rhine, Colorado, Marne, Orinoco, Rio Grande—the rivers themselves have almost disappeared from consciousness in the modern world. Insofar as they exist in our imaginations, that existence is nostalgic. We have turned our memory of the Mississippi into a Mark Twain theme park at Disneyland. Our railroads followed the contours of the rivers and then our highways followed the contours of the rail lines. Traveling, we move as a river moves, at two removes. Our children don’t know where their electricity comes from, they don’t know where the water they drink comes from, and in many places on the earth the turgid backwaters of dammed rivers are inflicting on local children an epidemic of the old riverside diseases: dysentery, schistosomiasis, “river blindness.” Rivers and the river gods that defined our civilizations have become the sublimated symbols of everything we have done to the planet in the last two hundred years. And the rivers themselves have come to function as trace memories of what we have repressed in the name of our technical mastery. They are the ecological unconscious.

Choose 1 reacreational activity that you had done in the past. (Its either indoor or outdoor). Then share your experiencr on that activity.
Answer and Explanation:
A recreational activity I did was to paint images of animals using my hands as brushes. This activity was carried out indoors, that is, inside a house and not outdoors.
The activity was very profitable, because it allowed great fun for everyone involved, while we imagined which animals resembled the shapes that our hand, dirty with ink, presented on paper. I believe that it would be very useful to redo this activity in a zoo, where we could observe the animals up close, but we would have to be careful with the dirt that the paint causes.

true or false
Answer:
False
Explanation:

I. Simple sentence.
II. Compound sentence.
III. Complex sentence.
IV. Compound-Complex sentence.
A complex sentence comprises of both an independent clause and a dependent clause. Therefore, a complex sentence has at least one subordinate clause.

Additionally, an independent (main) clause can be defined as a clause that expresses a complete thought while standing alone as a simple sentence and comprises of at least a subject and a verb (predicate).
Some examples of an independent clause are;
- She is a wise woman.
- I like her.
- She read the whole novel.

Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare. Which statement develops the theme that abuse of power leads to destruction?
CASSIUS: Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow world
Like a Colossus, and we petty men
Walk under his huge legs and peep about
To find ourselves dishonorable graves.
Men at some time are masters of their fates.
The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars
But in ourselves, that we are underlings.
Brutus and Caesar-what should be in that "Caesar?
Why should that name be sounded more than yours?
Write them together, yours is as fair a name.
Sound them, it doth become the mouth as well.
Weigh them, it is as heavy. Conjure with 'em,
"Brutus" will start a spirit as soon as "Caesar."
Now in the names of all the gods at once,
Upon what meat doth this our Caesar feed
That he is grown so great? Age, thou art shamed!
Rome, thou hast lost the breed of noble bloods!
Answer:
Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow world
Like a Colossus, and we petty men Walk under his huge legs.
Explanation:
The first sentence questions man's pride, arrogance, using the word Colossus to represent man's thought of himself as being huge and being an very high level. If one bestride the world as a Colossus represents the misuse of one very little power which man often thinks of himself as being extremely powerful and untouchable. In the real sense, the world looks so huge in the worldly realm, which when man acquires a bit of power, he starts to feel as being the most powerful. Petty, describes men as not more than we are ; no matter the worldly power we have, men aren't so special, walking under the legs as the man falls into destruction despite his powers.
Answer: Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow world Like a Colossus, and we petty men Walk under his huge legs.

the fight
Answer:
The cobra and mongoose are considered to be the greatest enemies of the time because their food depends on each other means they are dependent on each other to get their food and that reason is enough for two to become enemies
Explanation:
The cobra and the mongoose got ready for a fight in a clearing beneath the Banyan tree. On seeing the mongoose, the cobra made a hissing sound and its forked tongue darted in and out while it raised its body six feet off the ground and spread the broad hood. The mongoose brushed its tail and the long hair on its spine stood up as it got ready for the fight. At first, the cobra tried to mesmerize the mongoose into making a false move by swaying from side to side very slowly. But the mongoose very cleverly avoided meeting the snake's eyes. It fixed its gaze at a point just below the cobra’s hood and moved forward to attack. With very quick movements the mongoose bit the cobra on the back and darted away to escape. The cobra tried to strike the mongoose but failed. A crow and a myna were watching this fight from a cactus tree. They hurled at the cobra the moment he struck, but ended up colliding heavily in mid-air. The mongoose then sprang aside and bit the cobra again. The crow and the myna also dived at the cobra but bumped into each other. The mongoose attacked the cobra for the third time. This time the cobra struck the crow when it tried to interfere again and it died. When the mongoose and cobra returned to fight, the cobra was tired and weak. The mongoose went near the cobra fearlessly and raising itself on its short legs, it snapped the snake by the snout. The cobra writhed and lashed about in a frightened manner. It even tried to coil itself about the mongoose but failed. The mongoose hung on to the snake's snout until it ceased to struggle. He then gripped the snake round the hood and dragged it into the bushes.

During his conversation with his daughter, Annie, he spoke about Warland in such a way that revealed that he didn't believe that anything creative will come out of Warland. In other words, one can infer that Hovenden dosen't believe that someone can be better than how he was before.
Hovenden had known Warland to be someone who doesn't have that ingenuity to be creative.

What does the masquerade mentioned in line 9 represent in the poem
Answer:
The word "masquerade" represents the people who stand behind a false mask, who pretend and put up appearances for others to see while hiding their true selves, feelings behind a mask.
Explanation:
Nikki Grimes' poem "Jabari Unmasked" revolves around an unnamed speaker's frustration at the injustice her people are treated with. The poem is a strong expression of discontent of discrimination and the efforts of the blacks to try to blend in while hiding their true feelings just to evade any trouble.
In line 9, the speaker says "We despise the masquerade". The masquerade here seems to suggest the 'made-up' appearance, the fake show that the people have to put up to hide their true feelings. The word also represents the people who had to put on a pretend face for others to see, hiding their true selves behind a mask.
Bring out gerrards intelligence , presence of mind and sense of humour. How did these traits help him
Being an intelligent person, Gerrard did not show even the slightest of nervousness at the sight of the gun-toting criminal. He knew that his cool-headedness and presence of mind would not only help him to manage the crisis but would also contribute towards unnerving the intruder, who too must be having some fear lurking in his mind. Keeping the atmosphere light and lively with his sense of humour and funny remarks, Gerrard instantly cooked up a story about his criminal background. Convincing the intruder that the police would arrive any minute to nab them, he impressed upon the intruder that they would have to escape immediately. Cleverly, he made him peep into a cupboard saying that it was an escape route. The moment the intruder leaned forward to inspect it, Gerrard pushed him into the cupboard and knocked the revolver out of his hand. He then closed and locked the door. Thus, his intelligence, sense of humour, and presence of mind turned the tables on the intruder.
