Answer:

1. To die for the country. At that time, the Qin state was particularly powerful, and after the capital of the Chu state was captured by Qin. Qu Yuan felt that his country was about to perish. As a person with strong feelings for the state of Chu, Qu Yuan did not want to see this scene happen with his own eyes, so he threw himself into the Miluo River.

2. Dying to be perfect. Qu Yuan's character is upright, while politics is dark and cruel. Qu Yuan found that his political ambitions were impossible to accomplish under the leadership of a king like King Huai of Chu and the cooperation of incompetent colleagues who were scheming but not involved in civil affairs. What Qu Yuan wanted was "Mingjun" and "Prince Zhe", and colleagues who could sincerely make achievements for the common people, but the stark reality woke him up again and again and finally threw him into the river.

3. Died to save King Qingxiang. This is a rather novel statement. It originated from a folklore that after the death of King Huai, the state of Chu could no longer withstand any attacks. At that time, the state of Qin often invaded the state of Chu and finally captured Yingdu. During the process of being hunted down by Qin State, King Qingxiang thought of Qu Yuan who was near the Miluo River with Liufang, and wanted to ask him if there was any way he could pull back the game and revive Chu State. However, the Qin army followed after learning of King Qingxiang's thoughts. In order to protect King Qingxiang, Qu Yuan exchanged clothes with him and jumped down the Miluo River in front of the Qin army, and King Xiang was rescued.

zaharov [31]

In comparing competitive encounters to collaborative encounters, research suggests that
Brrunno [24]
Research are likely to suggest that competitive encounters are likely to be more hard working while the collaborative encounters are the ones who will likely give their time to cooperate. It is because competitive encounters are usually competitive in a way of reaching their tasks or goals while the collaborative encounters are likely to just cooperate because of their knowledge with the given task.

Is Gregor's "metamorphosis" a completely random, inexplicable occurrence? Or does Kafka give any clues or insights to suggest wh
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Kafka gives no indication as to what may have caused Gregor's transformation.

Explanation:

Although we can interpret what Gregor's transformation represents, we have no indication of what caused it, since the author left no factor expressed in the narrative, probably to stimulate our interpretation of Gregor's dehumanization in the midst of capitalism and the exploitation he went through. Gregor's family and himself, see transformation as a random occurrence, something of chance, as a disease.

Did the Romans commit genocide against the Gauls
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

No. The Romans did not commit genocide against the Gauls

Explanation:

Julius Ceaser's Gallic Wars occurred from 58 to 51 B.C. Gaul was invaded by the Romans mainly for money. Ceaser needed to pay off his debts and also wanted to keep making a name for himself, thus invading Gaul was the answer. He didn't care about the people who lived there nor did he ever discuss their culture, nationality, or race as being a reason for invading. If we look at the definition of genocide it's "the deliberate or systematic extermination of a national, racial, political, or cultural group." Again, Ceaser never listed any of those as being a reason for invasion; all he needed was victories.
