Answer:

The form of adolescent egocentrism that Elkind might use to describe Marcus' view of the world is the invincibility fable.

Explanation:

According to psychologist David Elkind, the invincibility fable is most common in teenagers. It is a feeling of indestructibility, a sense of oneself as immune to injuries or consequences. The cause of the invincibility fable is the fact that, in teenagers, the development of the frontal lobe is still incomplete. It is this part of the brain that is responsible for the understanding of consequences. Marcus, as seen in the passage, is engaging in risky behavior because he does not think he will get caught. He is a typical example of the invincibility fable.

How did the romans conquer so much land
Rina8888 [55]
<span>because for a long time the romans had the best army in their area. They were the leading power in training, strategy and also in technology. One reason for this is that rome was the first really centralized state in europe. Many territories were lorded over by local tribes that fought against each other and did not unite against the romans. Often it was quite enough that the roman army marched somewhere and the local tribes agreed to become part of the empire - because the romans in general had a policy of religious tolerance, to local kings remaind in power their kingdoms were protected by the roman army,... in return they had to pay taxes and to make sure there would be no upraising against roman superpower. (this was the case with the jews so after a few gernations of constant guerilla warfare the romans destroyed jerusalem and sent the people into diaspora).

Hope this Helps!! :))</span>

What moving countries in the middle of high school taught me?
guapka [62]
Well, I don't know what exactly it taught you, but for me it taught me a list of things:
- how to work cohesively with people with dramatically different ideas than me
- how to appreciate and participate in other cultures
- my actions and the results are dependent on me
- social systems are drastically different and are dependent on your cultural background
- There are universal human wishes and things with which you can bond
- the importance of social support, and the significance of belonging to a community

These are just a couple things I learned from moving cross-culturally throughout my life.

Dubbing

Explanation:

<u>It is a common technique used in cinema to paste one person's voice over another to produce a desirable effect including the emulation of a proper voice for a specific role as is the case here.</u>

This was done to be as authentic about Welles' voice as was possible and not to break the immersion of the audience watching the film and familiar with Orson Welles.

sasho [114]
The correct answer is agenda control.

Agenda control refers to phenomenon whereby the media (television, newspapers, movies, magazines, etc.) shapes and influences people's thoughts and perceptions of the world. This occurs as a result of over reporting topics such as crime, terrorism, corruption, etc., while under reporting other prevalent occurrences in society. By selectively providing information to consumers, the media influences the public's opinions and perceptions.

The market of Prodigy Placement is specifically aimed for parents who want to send their children to the school since students at the school are considered in the top 1% of their age group in terms of IQ scores and aptitude.
