Answer:

C. People are more likely to follow those who lead by example, not force.

Explanation:

The story is similar to a morality play, in which it sets up a scenario to give a perspective into real-life behavior and attitudes. Iktomi seems kind of self-important: he "[bosses] the other children around" and his "overpowering personality is disliked by others." He is juxtaposed with another unnamed boy, who apparently taught the children to make snowshoes.

Because the story ends with the other boy getting a leadership position, it is safe to conclude that <u>people are more likely to follow those who lead by example, not force.</u> Iktomi led with force in being bossy and authoritarian, whereas the other boy helped his peers and led by example.

The readers understanding would change without different points of view shown through dialogue because without characters point of view shown through dialogue there is nothing there to form the readers opinion and understanding of the characters feelings and thoughts. In the Hobbit, dialogue is very important for the readers understanding. For example, Bilbo Baggins shares his thoughts, feelings, and ideas throughout his adventures, along with many other characters. Without Bilbo expressing his point of view through dialogue, the reader would have no idea what he is feeling, along with all of the other characters, Dialogue builds a picture in the readers head and without that picture the reader won't have an accurate idea of what the author intended the reader to think.

I hope this helps! :)

Which of the following statements is true of the types of coping? A. Problem-focused coping is the best way to cope with the dea

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

D. Problem-focused coping and emotion-focused coping cannot be used together in a situation.

Explanation:

Option D is correct, because problem-focused coping involves different strategies or development. These strategies may include, solving the problem oneself, taking help from someone else to solve the problem, detaching oneself from the problem (e.g <em>it's not my problem</em>). These strategies can never help in coping emotional stresses. Strategies to cope emotional stresses may include, distraction (keeping oneself busy in something), emotional disclosure (expressing one's emotions fully by writing or talking to someone), spiritual guidance/attachment (praying, and/or contentment), catharsis (the purification emotions through art) etc.

Option A is not correct because death of family member is an emotional stress (which cannot be solved, but only coped) and not a problem (which can be solved)

Option B is not correct because life's problems are problems (which can be solved), they are not emotions.

Option C is incorrect because emotion-focused coping does give good outcomes, as does problem-focused coping.
