gloomy unknown regions below the earth; and Poseidon

Read the highlighted clues. Which choice BEST states Ruthie's point of
view toward Spencer?

Answers

Answer:

She thinks he can't be trusted to use good sense.

Explanation:

All of the highlighted clues show that Ruthie thinks that Spencer can't be trusted to use good sense. When someone has good sense, they are able to make sensible decisions about what to do. Ruthie thinks that Spencer almost never has good ideas, and then he suggests buying a console that he likes, despite the fact they can't afford it. She even thinks that he can't buy a plant without proper instructions. There is no proof she thinks he is mean, smart, funny, or a show-off. So, the correct option is the second one.

Which of the following best explains the scientists' plans?


The scientists are making observations.


The scientists are conducting an investigation.


The scientists are conducting a controlled experiment.


The scientists are conducting both an investigation and a controlled experiment.

Answers

Answer:

The scientists are conducting an investigation.

Explanation:

According to the question, a group of students want to know the quality of water in the drinking fountain and thus they conduct several tests which include checking the mineral content, pH, density and clarity of the water.

The best explanation of the student's plans is that they are conducting an investigation.

An investigation is when a person conducts a test to find out something or to make an obscure thing clearer.

The students are NOT conducting a controlled experiment because their tests were not done in controlled conditions where some variables were changed at a time and others were kept at constant.

From “The Refusal” by Franz Kafka

5 Yet while he lives among us without laying too much stress on his official position, he is something quite different from the ordinary citizen. When a delegation comes to him with a request, he stands there like the wall of the world. Behind him is nothingness, one imagines hearing voices whispering in the background, but this is probably a delusion; after all, he represents the end of all things, at least for us. At these receptions he really was worth seeing. Once as a child I was present when a delegation of citizens arrived to ask him for a government subsidy because the poorest quarter of the town had been burned to the ground. . . . As on all solemn occasions the colonel stood upright, holding in front of him two poles of bamboo in his outstretched hands. This is an ancient custom implying more or less that he supports the law, and the law supports him. Now everyone knows, of course, what to expect up on the veranda, and yet each time people take fright all over again. On this occasion, too, the man chosen to speak could not begin, he was already standing opposite the colonel when his courage failed him and, muttering a few excuses, he pushed his way back into the crowd. No other suitable person willing to speak could be found, albeit several unsuitable ones offered themselves; a great commotion ensued and messengers went in search of various citizens who were well-known speakers. During all this time the colonel stood there motionless, only his chest moving visibly up and down to his breathing. Not that he breathed with difficulty, it was just that he breathed so conspicuously, much as frogs breathe—except that with them it is normal, while here it was exceptional. I squeezed myself through the grownups and watched him through a gap between two soldiers, until one of them kicked me away with his knee. Meanwhile the man originally chosen to speak had regained his composure and, firmly held up by two fellow citizens, was delivering his address. It was touching to see him smile throughout this solemn speech describing a grievous misfortune—a most humble smile which strove in vain to elicit some slight reaction on the colonel’s face. Finally he formulated the request—I think he was only asking for a year’s tax exemption, but possibly also for timber from the imperial forests at a reduced price. Then he bowed low, as did everyone else except the colonel, the soldiers, and a number of officials in the background. . . . After this had lasted quite a while an official, a little man, stepped up to the colonel and tried to reach the latter’s height by standing on his toes. The colonel, still motionless save for his deep breathing, whispered something in his ear, whereupon the little man clapped his hands and everyone rose. “The petition has been refused,” he announced. “You may go.” An undeniable sense of relief passed through the crowd, everyone surged out, hardly a soul paying any special attention to the colonel, who, as it were, had turned once more into a human being like the rest of us. I still caught one last glimpse of him as he wearily let go of the poles, which fell to the ground, then sank into an armchair produced by some officials, and promptly put his pipe in his mouth.

Suppose you write the following in your post or paper: When a Tikopian chief who rules over other chiefs dies, the chiefs beneath him hold an election to decide who will be his successor. This is information you learned from a book. Do you still need to include a citation even though it is not a direct quotation?

Answers

Answer:

No, there is no need to include the cititation.

Explanation:

No, there is no need to include the cititation when it is not a direct quotation. One can simply incorporate their own words with the quotation especially when the cited quotation is lew than fourty words.

Here, the writer has withdrawn from quoting the exact words as cited in the book by Nowak and Laird. Therefore, he/she does not need include the cititation as he/she incorporated his/her own words in the post or paper.

When is the meaning of a literary text explicit?

when the meaning involves only one central idea or theme
when the meaning is stated outright in the text
when the meaning is obvious to readers
when the meaning is hinted at in the text

Answers

Answer:

when the meaning is stated outright in the text

Explanation:

The meaning of a literary text is explicit when the meaning is stated outright in the text. The correct option is B. Textual evidence that is not explicitly stated but is inferred by the reader as a result of textual cues.

How do you identify the implicit in a written text?

Implicit is defined as "implied or understood even though not clearly or directly expressed." Therefore, something is implied when it isn't expressly stated but instead is implied by the language used or required to achieve the intended result.

Explicit means are completely explicit and free from any ambiguity, implication, or obscurity. Nothing is implied or presumption when something is said to be explicit; it is clear what is being expressed or conveyed.

Thus, the ideal selection is option B.
