A. “Everyone knows at least one of those people who are willing to jeopardize their  own health and well-being to help others.” (Paragraph 1)

B. “News stories often focus on grander cases of altruism, such as a man who dives

into an icy river to rescue a drowning stranger or a generous donor who gives  thousands of dollars to a local charity.” (Paragraph 4)

C. “Prosocial behavior refers to any action that benefits other people, no matter  what the motive or how the giver benefits from the action.” (Paragraph 5)

D. “Do we ever engage in helping others for truly altruistic reasons, or are there  hidden benefits to ourselves that guide our altruistic behaviors?” (Paragraph 15)

“Do we ever engage in helping others for truly altruistic reasons, or are there  hidden benefits to ourselves that guide our altruistic behaviors?” (Paragraph 15)

Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The article altruism: why we risk our own well-being to help others talks about being good to other people and help them where ever and how ever possible.

Be an altruistic might reap the people benefits which they might have not even expected which would be a result of their being kind and helpful to the other people. But according to the passage, there are few chances of true altruistic being existent.

Answer:

The Reefs by Marcella Morris

1. The theme develops from the conflict or the central problem that is being confronted.   It can also develop from the character, especially the character's qualities, actions, responses, and changes which the character makes in the situation.

2. Sophie was confronted with the problem of solving a crucial environmental issue.  The coral reefs were facing possible extinction.  She could not receive some support from her college professors, as they refused to provide their expertise, withheld their moral support, and did not supply her with the resources that she required (e.g. laboratory time).  But, Sophie did not give up.  She singularly decided to do something and was able to follow through despite the discouraging challenges.  At last, she came up with the solution because of her indomitable spirit.  

Explanation:

What is a theme?  A theme of a story or an event is the lesson that can be derived from the story or event.  It is not the sequence of events that make up a story, which is known as the plot, but the message or the bone of the story.  The theme develops from the conflict or the central problem that is being tackled.  The lessons that are learned in tackling the conflict or problem are the themes.

How did Seamus Heaney incorporate Old English poetry elements in this modern translation?
konstantin123 [22]
<span>Heaney incorporates Old English poetry elements in his modern translation through punctuation. In Old English poetry, one often used half-lines. This means that each line of poetry was split into two half-lines, and in each of these half-lines there were two strongly stressed words, often with the purpose of giving musicality to the poem. Heaney follows this half-line pattern in his modern translation.</span>
