Answer:
A. Because humans are much taller than dwarves.
Explanation:
1) A beanpole is a <em>stick</em> for supporting beans, according to the dictionary.
2) Beanpole sticks are generally 6-8 feet tall.
3) Context clues: If you do not know what "beanpole" means and don't have access to a dictionary, you can use context clues to help figure out, if not the actual meaning of the unfamiliar word, then at least a small understanding of what it could mean. In this case: "<u>Giant</u> beanpole!" We know that "giant" means big and tall, so we can surmise that "beanpole" is an addition to that descriptive.
4) As an extra assurance, in the passage, there is also "clodhopper" which is a way of saying Maibon is clumsy, but the question does not ask why Doli calls Maibon a clodhopper, so it's safe to assume that A is the correct answer.
Answer and Explanation:
Vonnegut's letter and 1984 are showing how the hiding of messages and concepts is done by people who are in power to manipulate, alienate and limit people's access to information that will make them reason.
These two works show how the reasoning of the mass, of the people is dangerous for the powerful and for that reason, they will try their best to deny any type of media that encourages racism at the expense of alienation. This occurs through the censorship of books, the denial of historical facts and the positioning as a figure that contains the truth and that must be followed. This occurs through manipulation.
However, even in the midst of these similarities, these two works present some differences, mainly regarding the level of power of the active manipulative force. In Vonnegut's letter, this force has a more domestic power and is limited to a region, which shows that the capacity for manipulation may be closer to what we imagine and it is necessary to perceive and fight it. In 1984, the manipulative force is something comprehensive, governmental and greater, which has the power to interfere in absolutely any factor and any element of human knowledge.
Not quite 200 words, but I'm sure you can add a couple sentences and then you'll be good to go:
When one counts their blessings, it
may be easy to overlook good health as a blessing, for people often do not
realize the worth of something until it is gone. For example, someone may not
realize how much they value another person until they’ve lost them. Likewise,
sometimes we forget what a blessing health is until we become ill or injured.
Some blessings are given to us, and
some are cultivated. Some people have a harder time maintaining a healthy
lifestyle than others, due to genetics or socioeconomic status. In the case of
genetics, some people were fortunate enough to be born with good genetics,
whereas some people have a greater predisposition towards certain disorders and have weaker immune systems. People who live in poverty also have difficulty
maintaining good health, for they do not always have the luxury of having free
time to exercise, access to fresh, healthy foods, or the money to receive
adequate healthcare. Therefore, health is a blessing because it reflects how
fortunate someone is in multiple aspects of life.
