Timed test pls help i dont wanna fail


The story of the telephone’s invention in 1876 is one of hard work, determination, and triumph. Many accounts make it sound like a fairy tale. After all, it has a terrific happy ending in which the hero, Alexander Graham Bell, uses his astonishing new device to transmit the words "Mr. Watson, come here. I want to see you.” However, the true story of how the telephone came to be is not quite as happy as most imagine. In fact, it is not a tale of triumph at all, but one of tragedy. What’s more, the first words ever spoken over a wire could not possibly have been uttered by Alexander Graham Bell, because he was only two years old at the time.


Based on the excerpt, which statement best describes the author’s attitude toward Alexander Graham Bell?

The author greatly dislikes Bell for taking credit for the invention of the telephone.

The author feels pity for Bell because he is not the real inventor of the telephone.

The author celebrates Bell even though he gives him only partial credit for the telephone.

The author feels it is important to show that Bell was not the true inventor of the telephone.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The answer is D

Explanation: The last sentence made me think D was the correct answer as he says, “what’s more, the first words ever spoken over a wire could not possibly have been uttered by Alexander Graham Bell, because he was only two years old at the time.”. The author is trying to make a point that Alexander could not have invented the telephone because he was too young when it was first invented. Thus trying to convey that it is important to look past the glorified story and look towards the real one.

I am very sorry if I am not correct.

A thematic map of the U S. Climate regions are labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F. A is the Rocky Mountain region. B is most of the Western U S. C is the Northern plains region and Northwest. D is in the South. E is along the border of Mexico and into Nevada. F is along the west coast. Which climate region is labeled with the letter A on the map above? A. humid subtropical B. Mediterranean C. semiarid D. highland

Answers

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. I answered from a general geographic point of view.

Answer:

D. highland

Explanation:

Remember, we are told that on the thematic map, A is the Rocky Mountain region.

Since the term "mountain" is often synonymous with "highland," it is, therefore logical to conclude that the letter A would be referring to a highland climate region. In other words, it is referring to the climate of the Rocky Mountain (which can also be called a highland).

A negative aspect of what?

Explanation:

You need to give full context when asking the question, is that the entire question? An aspect is a particular part or feature of something, so we need to know what you're referencing.

Answer:

1. Environmental pollution is a bad aspect because it disrupts local ecosystems and harms animals around. Not only that but it may even destroy natural resources.

2. Poor working conditions is a negative aspect because it can increase "quitting" rates and can lead to poor work being done on the products.

Well, look at places such as I believe Russia, where LGBTQ+ rights are not quite as good as places such as Canada, look at the treatment of POC, things such as racism that came with the virus (such as people being afraid of Chinese people and thinking they all may have it or people calling it the china  virus), issues with the BLM movement and why it is important, there are some good examples in Canada,  such as Joyce Echaquan, which I would totally look into, as it was a very sad, racist thing that isn't talked about as much. Look at earlier things in history such as the suffragettes (women right in Britain) or things such as Nazi Germany. You can also include things such as abortions, and how making it illegal will lead to more women doing at home abortions, leading to their untimely death and how that can be seen as having more control over them.

d.

Please select the best answer from the choices provided

Answers

Answer: Ideology is a system of beliefs or ideas that adjusts the social, religious, moral, political, or economic interests possess by a group or by society. Ideology is also called an agenda.

Explanation:

The works of Harold Walsby and George Walford are endeavors to explore the connection between social system and ideology. Charles Blattberg provides an account that differs from political ideologies from political philosophies. Meanwhile, David W. Minar explains six different ways where the word "ideology" has been employed:

· As the f internal logical structure that ideas have within a set

· As a collection of certain ideas with certain kinds of content, usually normative

· By the role ideas play in the structure of an organization

· By the role ideas play in human-social interaction

· As the locus of social interaction

· As a meaning, whose purpose is persuasion

Terry Eagleton summarizes some definitions of ideology:

· The process of production of meanings, signs, and values in social life

· A body of ideas characteristic of a particular social group or class

· Ideas that help legitimate a dominant political power

· False ideas that help legitimate a dominant political power

· Systematically distorted communication

· Ideas that offer a position for a subject

· Forms of thought motivated by social interests

· Identity thinking

· Socially necessary illusion

· The conjuncture of discourse and power

· The medium in which conscious social actors make sense of their world

· Action-oriented sets of beliefs

· Semiotic closure

· The indispensable medium in which individuals live out their relations to a social structure

· The process that converts social life to a natural reality

· The confusion of linguistic and phenomenal reality

Willard A. Mullins argued that ideology should be compared to the related (but distinct) issues of utopia and historical myth. An ideology is comprised of four basic characteristics:

· guide action

· be logically coherent

· have power over cognition

· be capable of guiding one's evaluations

Systematic racism refers to a government system/structure that create massive disadvantage for the people with a certain racial traits.

A strong Example of this would be United States during The Segregation period.

During that time, United States government created separate Public infrastructures (such as schools, bus, and hospitals) between white and black citizens.  But, the quality of the infrastructures allocated for black citizens were typically lower in quality. This caused a lot of damage for the black communities in the long run. For example, lower quality schools will make the students became less prepared to compete in their career when they graduated.

The answer is, selection.

Forced nudity, the use of cattle cars, and the tattooing of numbers are part of a process called selection.

What are some pros of tattooing cattle?The tattoo is small and unobtrusive, so the animal's skin is not significantly damaged by the procedure.Tattooing is much less painful and stressful for the animal than branding, and the biologically inert ink does not adversely affect the animal's health.

What is animal tattooing?The process of tattooing allows for a series of numbers or letters to be permanently placed, most commonly in the animal's ear, using sharp, needlelike projections that pierce through the skin using a specially designed set of pliers.

What are the cons of tattooing cattle?One disadvantage of tattooing is that the animal must be restrained to apply and read the identification number. In dark- pigmented ears, the number is almost unreadable, unless a flashlight is placed behind the ear. Therefore, it is best to use green tattoo ink in dark pigmented ears.
