how does this paragraph develop the characters in the dialogue?
Answer:
it makes them seem more in depth
Explanation:
The correct option is: It shows that Adam is afraid of what is in the water, and Laura is fearless and likes to tease him.
In the excerpt, the paragraph develops the characters through their actions and dialogue. Adam's hesitation and fear of the crabs in the tidal pool contrast with Laura's fearless and adventurous nature.
Adam's reaction of wincing and nearly screaming when Laura scoops up a crab shows his apprehension, while Laura's teasing response and casual handling of the crab highlight her bold and daring personality. This interaction between the characters reveals their contrasting traits and sets the stage for potential character development and dynamics throughout the narrative.
The paragraph effectively develops the characters by illustrating Adam's fear and Laura's fearlessness through their reactions and dialogue in the situation with the crabs. This contrast in their personalities creates tension and sets the tone for their relationship and interactions in the narrative.

Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 1, scene 1.
[FLAVIUS.] See whether their basest metal be not moved.
60
They vanish tongue-tied in their guiltiness.
Go you down that way towards the Capitol;
This way will I. Disrobe the images,
If you do find them decked with ceremonies.
MARULLUS. May we do so?
65
You know it is the feast of Lupercal.
FLAVIUS. It is no matter; let no images
Be hung with Caesar’s trophies. I’ll about,
And drive away the vulgar from the streets:
So do you too, where you perceive them thick.
Which paraphrase of the passage is the most accurate?
Flavius says, “See whether their basest metal be not moved. They vanish tongue-tied in their guiltiness.” Then he tells Marullus where to go to “disrobe the images.” Marullus protests because it is the feast of Lupercal, but Flavius tells him that it does not matter. Flavius says, “Let no images be hung with Caesar’s trophies,” and tells Marullus to clean up the streets.
Flavius and Marullus decide to wipe the streets clean of homage to Caesar and to chase away those who want to celebrate him.
Flavius and Marullus talk about who should complete what task to clear the streets.
Flavius hopes that he has changed the high spirits of the people in the streets and sends them away before Caesar sees them. He instructs Marullus to go toward the capitol, while he himself goes the other way to take down any images of Caesar or decorations on his statues. Marullus wants to know if that is OK, because everyone is celebrating the feast of Lupercal. Flavius does not care, and he tells Marullus to do as he says and send the crowds home.
Answer: The right answer is the D) Flavius hopes that he has changed the high spirits of the people in the streets and sends them away before Caesar sees them. He instructs Marullus to go toward the capitol, while he himself goes the other way to take down any images of Caesar or decorations on his statues. Marullus wants to know if that is OK, because everyone is celebrating the feast of Lupercal. Flavius does not care, and he tells Marullus to do as he says and send the crowds home.
Explanation: When you paraphrase a text, you express its meaning using different words, in order to render it clearly and succinctly, so option A should be discarded. Likewise, in this excerpt Flavius and Marullus are not discussing who should clear the streets, so option B should be also discarded. Option C is accurate, but too brief; it acts more like a summary. In this passage Flavius is indeed congratulating himself for having convinced the commoners to go home instead of being outdoors celebrating Caesar's triumph, and he is instructing Marullus to remove images or decorations honoring Caesar, despite Marullus's reluctance —since it is the feast of Lupercal— as well as to continue forcing people off the streets.

Select a theme from Julius Caesar,select a theme and explain how it is developed throughout the play. Use evidence from the play itself. Please in 2-3 paragraphs. Strongly support claims, this is worth most of my grade. (From the Julius Caesar play written by Shakespeare
Note to Cynatory:
There are many themes in Julius Caesar (e.g. betrayal, ambition, honor, love) and chances are you might violate academic integrity if I write this for you and you submit it as your own work.
So, tell you what -- I've chosen deceit as my theme but I'm going to answer this question in such a way where you will have to do some work on your own such as, giving more textual support and adding your own POV so it's authentic.
Does that sound good? Okay. Let's do this.
In William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, countless occasions of deception have arisen primarily due to Brutus.
Brutus was a deceitful, murderous apostate who betrayed his country, his morals, his friend, and his king; his violent actions took more lives than Caesar ever could.
Brutus was the original, Judas Iscariot; he was a deceitful follower of Caesar who sold his king for nearly thirty, excruciating stab wounds. However, Brutus claimed to be Caesar’s faithful friend and disciple – he insisted that Rome always had his loyalty.
Brutus was a soft-spoken, yet troubled soul. He is applauded for his empathy and loyalty to morality and to his countrymen. In fact, when Cassius had raised the proposition to kill Antony along with Caesar, Brutus answered as such:
“Let us be sacrificers, but not butchers, Caius.”
However, this is not out of character for Brutus. He craftily schemed Caesar’s demise while putting on a carefully fabricated façade. Even then, Caesar valued him and referred to him many times as “friend” throughout his final days.
Caesar voices, “Good friends, go in, and taste some wine with me; And we, like friends, will straightway go together.”
Brutus, like Judas at the Passover, also went, reclined and drank wine with his lord, fully knowing that he’d take part in the death of his liege.
Although there is truth in Brutus’s guise, it is far cry from what he truly felt. His speech after Caesar’s death was a beautiful eulogy that spoke from the heart. He poses this thoughtful question his fellow countrymen:
“Had you rather Caesar were living and die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live all free men?”
Brutus adored Caesar, but he loved Rome more. His duty was not to man, but to mankind. Nevertheless, Judas claimed to love Christ too. Where do Judas and Christ stand now?
Brutus states:
“Our course will seem too bloody, Caius Cassius.”
Brutus acknowledged that that his actions were bloody. His statement also implies that if it didn’t “seem” to bloody, then killing Antony could have been justifiable also.
Brutus, one of the twelve major figures in Julius Caesar, was not a deceiver.
“Shall Rome stand under one man's awe? What, Rome?”
Brutus’s statement is laced with contempt. Rather than saying, “Rome should, as a people…” he singles out Caesar and undermines his figure. He says “one man” seeking to portray Caesar as a weak leader rather than appealing to his audience by promoting a “we the people” stance.
He attempts to trick his audience into believing that Caesar is inept. After all, the art of pleasing is the art of deceiving, is it not?
This was my speech:
Julius Ceasar was a book filled with greed, corruption, and ambition. But the biggest theme of the whole book was power. Ceasar had so much power and was going to turn the city into becoming a dictatorship. His friends decided to kill him so he wouldn't ruin the city.
As you can see from these examples in the book Cassius says:
" CASSIUS
Why, he that cuts off twenty years of life
Cuts off so many years of fearing death.
BRUTUS
Grant that, and then is death a benefit.
So are we Caesar's friends, that have abridged
His time of fearing death. Stoop, Romans, stoop,
And let us bathe our hands in Caesar's blood
Up to the elbows, and besmear our swords." This means that after stabbing Caesar in the back, Cassius and Brutus reason that they've done their pal a favor: now that Caesar's death, he no longer has to worry about dying. Then Brutus has another good idea – the conspirators should wash their hands in their friend's blood to signal that they've freed Rome from tyranny.
In conclusion, this story relates to real-life because many people have a way to much power and need to be put to an end. The only difference is that you could just kill them in the book but in real life that's not exactly an option.

the short story make instead of describing the sounds?

A. Remove the sounds from the film
O
B. Create a dramatic sound mix to present the sounds to the
audience
O
C. Change the setting to avoid the forest sounds
O
D. Have one of the film's characters comment on the sounds
Answer:
i think its B but im not too sure, D sounds correct as well.
The correct answer is B. Create a dramatic sound mix to present the sounds to the audience
Explanation:
In short stories and other literary works, authors rely mainly on written descriptions, dialogues or monologues to present elements such as characters, settings, actions, etc. However, when these literary works are adapted into films, descriptions are not used as the use of a narrator is not common in films, instead filmmakers rely on actions of characters and show elements instead of describing them. This means, in the case of a short story set in a forest, the best for adapting this is to let the audience hear the sounds of the forest instead of describing them and thus, the correct answer is "create a dramatic sound mix to present the sounds to the audience".

what is lifeboat ethics about
Answer:
Lifeboat ethics is a metaphor for resource distribution proposed by the ecologist Garrett Hardin in 1974.
Hardin's metaphor describes a lifeboat bearing 50 people, with room for ten more. The lifeboat is in an ocean surrounded by a hundred swimmers. The "ethics" of the situation stem from the dilemma of whether (and under what circumstances) swimmers should be taken aboard the lifeboat.
Hardin compared the lifeboat metaphor to the Spaceship Earth model of resource distribution, which he criticizes by asserting that a spaceship would be directed by a single leader – a captain – which the Earth lacks. Hardin asserts that the spaceship model leads to the tragedy of the commons. In contrast, the lifeboat metaphor presents individual lifeboats as rich nations and the swimmers as poor nations.
Explanation:
Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifeboat_ethics
Answer:
Lifeboat ethics is a metaphor about how Garret Hardin thinks the richest countries should behave towards the poor nation.
Explanation:
Garret Hardin was an American ecologist who warned the dangers of human overpopulation. He criticized the model of resource distribution model called Spaceship Earth because that would lead to what he called "Tragedy of the Commons". That is a situation where individual users acting on their own self-interest behave contrary to the common good of all users.
In response to that model, he developed the lifeboat ethics. It describes a lifeboat bearing 50 people and with room for ten more in the middle of the ocean. But the lifeboat is surrounded by 100 swimmers. The problem radicates on what swimmers should be taken abroad.

Read this passage from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. In what way could most readers connect Huck's experience to their own experiences?
I set down one time back in the woods, and had a long think about it. I says to myself, if a body can get anything they pray for, why don't Deacon
Winn get back the money he lost on pork? Why can't the widow get back her silver snuffbox that was stole? Why can't Miss Watson fat up? No,
says I to myself, there ain't nothing in it. I went and told the widow about it, and she said the thing a body could get by praying for it was "spiritual
gifts." This was too many for me, but she told me what she meant-I must help other people, and do everything I could for other people, and look
out for them all the time, and never think about myself. This was including Miss Watson, as I took it. I went out in the woods and turned it over in
my mind a long time, but I couldn't see no advantage about it-except for the other people; so at last I reckoned I wouldn't worry about it anymore,
but just let it go.
a) Everyone has experienced going to the woods to think things through

What is the speaker suggesting in the lines below from Walt Whitman's poem
"Song of Myself"?
I depart as air...
I effuse my flesh in eddies, and drift it in lacy jags
Answer:
In this passage, Whitman is celebrating how the death and life of his self and his body are interconnected with the natural world.
Explanation:
When we die, the physical substance of the body—literally the molecules of the flesh—rot away to become once again a part of the natural world. But the same thing is true when we are living. We breathe in the molecules of the air, which become a part of us, even as they began as a part of other things. "Song of Myself" is all about these kinds of transcendent connections. Whitman is celebrating his "self" ("I celebrate myself, and sing myself"), but he's doing so by acknowledging the ways his self relies on the forces and energies and bodies of the natural and human worlds around him.
