The writer of "The Instinct that Makes People Rich" interprets the Midas myth as the story of a man who could not fail.

Chesterton, however, says that Midas DID fail. He starved because he could not eat gold.

Chesterton says that success always comes at the sacrifice of something else, something "domestic." (By this he means that, yes, a millionaire has money but will lack something else, like love or friendship, etc.) He says that people who think Midas succeeded are just like the author of the article -- both worship money.

Chesterton says that worshipping money has nothing to do with success and everything to do with snobbery.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

2. naming the source of the quotation

4. using a darker font color

5. using a more legible font

6. increasing the font size

(Photo for proof at the bottom)

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Naming the source of the quotation gives credit to the person who said the quote. Making the font darker, larger, and changing it to something more legible are all things that make the quote easier to read. Cursive is not something everyone can read. The white text makes it harder to read because of the light color background. And of course, making the letters larger makes things easier to read.

Based on this excerpt from the poem "The Solitary Reaper" by William Wordsworth, what can be determined about the speaker and th
prohojiy [21]

In this excerpt <u>the speaker expresses his frustration with the fact that even though he doesn't understand the language in which the tune is being sung, he still wishes to comprehend the message</u>. He wants to understand what the singing solitary reaper is singing about.

The conflict here is that they don't speak the same language.

We can see it more clearly in this verse: "Will no one tell me what she sings?" (he doesn't speak the language); and in the rest of the stanza, he keeps on wondering what the song may mean.

Hope this helps!

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Sample Response: The central idea of The Code Book is meaningful to me because I always assumed no one who wasn’t supposed to could read the information I share. It bothers me that people are out there creating and sending out viruses and Trojan horses. But it is important for me to know so that now I can try to protect myself better. From now on, I’ll be more careful about the programs and applications I use.
