Excerpt from Walden

English
2 answers:
Ymorist [56]3 years ago
8 0

In this text, Thoreau compares the way in which a stripped snake behaves to the way humans behave. He tells us that the snake would lay on the bottom when it went into the water, and remain there. According to Thoreau, the snake was missing the blooming of spring and the beauty of nature by behaving in this way. He compares the snake to the way in which humans behave. He argues that the current way of society is the way of degradation, and that we also live at the bottom. We are too focused on ourselves and our material possessions to come out and enjoy the natural world, which deserves appreciation and has the ability to make us reach a "higher life."

Why did Kanzi become a candidate for learning language?
olganol [36]

Answer:

c. He was present when his mother, Matata, was being taught how to  communicate.

Explanation:

The attempts to 'teach' language and help animals communicate with humans has been ongoing research and practical work of many linguistics and psychologists. Sue Savage-Rumbaugh is one of those psychologists who worked on teaching language and communication between animals and humans, specifically focusing on the bonobos.

Kanzi was an infant bonobo when Sue first began teaching lexigrams to Matata, Kanzi's adopted mother. But despite their attempts, Matata seemed to be incapable of learning or understanding anything. Taken back to another facility to be a breeder, Kanzi was left behind. After a couple of days, Sue noticed that Kanzi had absorbed whatever had been taught to his mother. This led Sue to focus on teaching Kanzi instead.

Thus, the correct answer is that Kanzi was present when his mother, Matata was being taught to communicate.

vagabundo [1.1K]
<span>Cuban-U.S. relations have developed over centuries to turn from relatively close and cordial relations to today where the U.S. still retains an economic embargo against the small island nation. Cuba used to be within the American sphere of influence, but drastically shifted with the Cuban Revolution and Fidel Castros rise to power. Also the Bay of Pigs Invasion by the CIA, which was an attempt to overthrow Castro greatly deteriorated relations between the two nations. The Cuban Missile Crisis was also a major point of conflict between the two nations when Cuba allowed for Soviet missiles to be placed on the island that almost led to a nuclear conflict between the two superpowers.</span>
