A line from "Max in the Year 2300" helps to distinguish it as a work of science fiction from a work of fantasy fiction is they were not original prints, but molecule-by-molecule reproduction.
What is Fiction?Fiction is any creative work, primarily any narrative work, that depicts imagined people, events, or locations in imaginative ways. Thus, fictional representations are at odds with reality, history, or plausibility.
Fantasy fiction creates what does not (and probably could not) exist in our world, whereas science fiction draws on and extrapolates from what we know about reality and science.
Max had come to forcibly remove from Ausable a report about missiles that was of particular importance. Ausable concocted a lie to trap cunning Max. He explained to Max how the balcony beneath his window had grown to be a major annoyance.
Therefore, They were not original prints, but molecule-by-molecule reproduction.

In paragraph 25, Turkle uses the phrase "partisan for conversation" to describe herself. Why
does Turkle choose the word partisan?
Answer:
Sherry Turkle used the phrase "partisan for conversation" to prove or bring out her argument about the lack of an inter-personal manual, a face-to-face conversation between humans, and the increased dependence on technology.
Explanation:
In her informational text "The Flight From Conversation", Sherry Turkle describes how technology has overtaken the world and how normal, inter-personal conversations have dwindled to a mere "hi/ hello". She delves into the issue of how we are all so focused on our small bubbles and out of the real world.
In the initial paragraphs, she narrates how many of us present generations are so dependent on our phones and electronic devices that it has taken the conversation out of our lives. But despite all that, she identifies herself as a "partisan for conversation" alluding to her support of personal conversations and not just texts and calls through the small devices that we have on us at all times. She specifically used/ choose the word "partisan" because it means an avid supporter of any idea or philosophy and that is what she wants to be associated with. And by using this word, she successfully managed to bring forward her main argument- that of lack of conversation between individuals and the need to do more of that and stay away from technological connections.

B) to stand stiffly
C) a tooth in a comb
D) to annoy or irritate

Based on "Economy" from Walden, which most likely describes Thoreau's attitude toward the outdoors?
O He was impressed but mildly intimidated by the wilderness.
O He was interested in being completely surrounded by nature.
O He preferred to pursue intellectual endeavors indoors.
O He considered the wilderness something to be conquered.
Answer: Second choice
O He was interested in being completely surrounded by nature.
Explanation:
Based on "Economy" from Walden, the sentence that most likely describes Thoreau's attitude toward the outdoors is that- B. He was interested in being completely surrounded by nature.
Only four things are listed by Thoreau as being essential: food, shelter, clothing, and fuel. A person who is willing to accept the fundamental gifts of nature can live off the land with little effort because nature itself contributes greatly to providing these. Any endeavour towards luxury is likely to be more of a barrier to one's development than a benefit.Thoreau's primary goal for visiting Walden is to determine the type of life he should be leading (what he refers to as his efforts to "live deliberately"); a big part of this effort is around figuring out the kinds of work he should be doing.

What is conference?
A conference is a meeting of two or more experts to discuss and exchange opinions or new information about a particular topic.Conferences can be used as a form of group decision-making, although discussion, not always decisions, are the main purpose of conferences.
The first known use of "conference" appears in 1527, meaning "a meeting of two or more persons for discussing matters of common concern".It came from the word "confer", which means "to compare views or take counsel".However the idea of a conference far predates the word. Arguably, as long as there have been people, there have been meetings and discussions between people. Evidence of ancient forms of conference can be seen in archaeological ruins of common areas where people would gather to discuss shared interests such as "hunting plans, wartime activities, negotiations for peace or the organisation of tribal celebrations".
