Which of the following best describes Malachy, Sr.?
A. pious
B. litigious
C. inviolate
D. poltroon
E. drunken

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

E. Drunken.

Explanation:

Frank McCourt's 1996 memoir "Angela's Ashes," tells the story of his own childhood, involving his father Malachy, Sr. and his mother Angela. The memoir covers the life of Frank and his family’s condition during his childhood, the stories from that time, and more majorly his own life in Limerick, Ireland.

There are many terms by which Malachy, Sr. can be described. But as the memoir presents, it is best to describe him as a drunkard. He is not pious, nor litigious or inviolate. He is somewhat of a poltroon, which is another term for a coward. But Malachy, Sr. isn't exactly a coward for even though he did not seem to do things in the right way, he still gets them done in as much as he can manage. He married Angela after being pressured and because of their Catholic faith. Moreover, he also instills the fondness of storytelling in his child and we also come to know that his drinking is a way to hide his bereavement and misfortune.

Thus, the correct description for Malachy, Sr. is option E.

How do different media representations of the same subject help us experience the subject differently?

Answers

Different media representations bring, into the spotlight, different views from different people with different beliefs and opinions. Different media might be funded by different companies or individuals with different intentions so you can get an idea of what those intentions are when you observe what the specific media is showing, how it is showcasing certain news, how it is showing certain individuals like politicians, celebrities, etc. One political debate would be viewed differently across multiple news channels, across multiple news anchors and across multiple social media platforms and posts.

"The survivor" what must be relinquished in lines 15-16

Answers

Answer:

The title of being young

Explanation:

The given question refers to the poem The survivor by Marilyn Chin:

Don’t tap your chopsticks against your bowl.

Don’t throw your teacup against the wall in anger.

Don’t suck on your long black braid and weep.

Don’t tarry around the big red sign that says

“danger!”

All the tempests will render still; seas will calm,

horses will retreat, voices to surrender.

That you have bloomed this way and not that,

that your skin is yellow, not white, not black

that you were born not a boy-child but a girl,

that this world will be forever puce-pink are just as well.

Remember, the survivor is not the strongest

or most clever;

merely, the survivor is almost always the youngest.

And you shall have to relinquish that title

before long.

When we look at the entire poem, we can conclude that what the lines 15-16 are talking about is the title of being young (lines 12-14). To relinquish something means to give it up, to surrender it. No one is forever young, and at some point, we all have to give up that title that will go to the young generations that follow us, the generations of new survivors.

Answers

Answer:

Lizabeth and the other kids believe it's a good idea. They enjoyed messing with Miss Lottie so they went over to destroy her flowers with pebbles and stones. Later that afternoon, Lizabeth starts to feel guilty. Lizabeth didn't join the kids in their merriment because she was ashamed of herself; "Suddenly I was ashamed,..." When she was at Miss Lotties house she had believe it was a good idea but looking back on it in a more mature way, she felt bad about it. To display this, Collier writes, "... but the woman in me flinched at the thought of the malicious attack that I had led."

Nights and Dragons—
From the memoir of author Abigail Prynne
I sit at my desk listening to thunder growl outside my window. Flashes of light burst through the darkness, and wind races past my window. The thrilling combination of sight and sound conjures up visions of dragons roaring proudly, breathing fire, and soaring across the midnight sky. Dragons first fascinated me when I was a little girl. They have followed me ever since. The magnificent creatures appeared in storybooks I read in the library, paintings I saw in museums, movies I watched in the theater, and the dreams I had in my sleep. By the time I was thirteen, one question consumed me. I wanted to know if dragons ever existed, so I set out on a quest for facts.

What do the first two sentences of this paragraph imply
Multiply negative 1 over 6 multiplied by negative 1 over 5 . get the anwer please

Answers

Answer:

a) it is a stormy night

b) 1/30

Explanation:

a) We can answer this question by analyzing what the protagonist experienced with her senses.

She states she heard growling of a thunder and saw flashes of light. These flashes of light represent lightning. Lightning together with the sound of thunder helps us infer that there is a storm raging outside. Later in the paeagraph she compares this scenery to a dragon roaring and breathing fire.

b) If I understood correctly, the task was to multiply (-1/6) • (-1/5).

When multiplying fractions, we separately multiply numerators (top number) and denominators (bottom number). So, the numerator of the solution will be (-1) • (-1) which is positive 1 (when multiplying two negative numbers, the outcome is always positive value), and the denominator of the solution will be 6 • 5 which is 30.

So, the product of these two fractions will be positive 1/30.

As the men were unloading our items, it looked as if they were having to put a great deal of effort in. I was obviously surprised by this, as I'm sure I could have done it two times faster then them. They also looked rather bored by the whole ordeal, so I decide to keep them busy by talking to them. I love talking, so I do it a lot, which my husband is sometimes annoyed with. As I was talking to them, I had to keep up with them, which was hard to do. I did end up walking in front of them, backward, most of the time, however. As they backed the sled, I noticed that they were doing it rather unitedly. The items obviously needed to be put on the back of the sled, not the front. When I pointed this out to them, they looked annoyed, though I don't know why. I was just trying to help them! After they had moved the items to the back of the sled, I noticed why they put them on the front of the sled first. I couldn't give them that pleasure that they were right, however, so instead I pointed out something else about how they packed it wrong this time, so they moved the items back to the front.

lazy anansi What is the main theme of the fable? A People who are lazy don’t get to benefit from others’ hard work. B Sometimes people take advantage of the kindness of their friends. C Sharing food with others is a good way to show that you care. D People are less likely to share with you if you don’t help them in some way.

Answers

Answer:

B Sometimes people take advantage of the kindness of their friends.

Explanation:

"Lazy Anansi" is an African folktale from the state of Ghana which tells the story of how spiders came to have long, thin legs. The story also deals with a good moral of why it is bad manners to rely on or take advantage of other people's goodness.

The tale tells how Anansi, a lazy spider would depend on others for his meals, visiting one friend after another for their food. And amidst this habit, he got stuck with everyone's offer to eat with them. And thus ended up hurting his own body when they all pulled his web to let him know the food was ready. And in the process of doing so, the friends had unknowingly hurt him physically, thus leading to the thin and long legs of spiders.

Thus, the main theme of the fable is that sometimes people take undue advantage of the kindness and goodness of others, like he spider Anansi.
