interpretations support Chesterton’s overall argument?
English

Viktor [21]3 years ago

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.

Which two phrases in this information about Medicare prescription drug coverage are noun phrases?
Anon25 [30]

A noun phrase is formed by a noun or pronoun, this one receives the name of the head, and any dependent words before or after the head. Dependent words are the ones that give specific details about the head. An example of a noun phrase can be: <em>a quantifier + a determiner + an adjective + a noun.</em> However, there are some others that are longer and with more dependent words.

Following this concept the two noun phrases in the text are:

<em>1. Senior citizens and others who need medical assistance  </em>

<em>2. The subset of the US population with Medicare</em>
